[paiging_jenWhen I grow up, I want to breed donkeys!]

I'm pretty sure most people would rather have the ride launch into an actual active volcano than ride an SLC...

A million times over.

[cfcI've gone pantless!]

I'm glad that CF is going to take steps to increase Volcano's capacity. It's a unique ride. Hell, I'd be happy if they clean that station--it's mighty dusty in there.

This day just keeps getting better and better for me! Can't wait for this change, what a great decision!

[Skycoastin SteveFive babies drowned in a fire]

You have literally just invalidated everything you've ever said by saying you'd rather have an SLC over Volcano.

There was never any validity to start with.

Good point.

Remember this is still just a rumor but atleast this is a strong rumor. I really hope this happens as the line is a huge problem.

Is the Drop Tower at King Dimonion really over 300 feet tall? I found the tower to be very weak (in terms of the sudden drop at the top) and not as tall as people claim.

This is just an Intamin Gyro Drop being inferior to Second-Generation offerings. They look neat with all the spinning and such, but that's about it.

^Too bad Kings Dominion's doesn't spin like Kings Island's! I do like the spinning on KI's and on Mach Tower at BGW, it's cool to be able to see the entire park disappear beneath you instead of just a slice depending on your luck.

[NozzyHoly crap you have a HUGE donkey!]

Awesome, can't wait to see the new station happen. I have a ton of friends who prefer Volcano over Intimidator but I hate the lines for it, hopefully this can do something to improve it, and I definitely agree with Chuck- I can't think of a dustier station (and queue).

This is great news for Kings Dominion fans! I hope that they redo that whole bottom area because it is a bit claustrophobic and difficult to get to the front of the train if it is crowded.

[Intimidator305Challenge me at Donkey Kong...I dare ya!]

^^^ I feel like you get a much better sense of height only facing one direction slowly disappearing beneath you... or atleast that's my opinion. I used to wonder what it would be like spinning just for the feeling, until Windseeker came to the park. Now I'm really glad it doesn't spin so the way up on the 300'+ towers are completely different experiences.
