Photo TR: Six Flags over Georgia ft. Wheelie

Hello fellow Wheelie fans!!!

I have some exciting news. There is an old coaster DVD I found with Wheelie footage! This footage is better than mine and far more entertaining.

It can be found on Theme Park Review's Coaster Expedition Volume 1. It is in segment 19, at 2:08. Please check it out Wheelie fans!

You can buy it here:

Bad News Thai - the Enterprise at TusenFryd was removed a couple of years ago, Wikipedia is wrong. That's one less for you to get all hot and othered about. However, because of your love of the Enterprise I am in a the process of importing photos of various Enterprise's into the Park Index.

Ty, here are a few photos of Centennial Screamer at Lagoon for you to Enjoy.

^ & ^^ - awesome!

I think the name of this forum should be changed to 'Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, and Wheelies'. I prefer the term Wheelie over Enterprise as with my lisp, enterprise is a demanding work to anunciate.

I still remember Orleans Orbit (The name was shortened to just Orbit at some point) at Marriot's Great America being the first ride I ever went on that went upside down. I recall looking out to the side of the gondola and watching the horizon flip over, again and again. It was a pretty amazing experience at the time, and I will always have fond memories of riding it. I was a little sad when we went a few years back and the ride was closed down. I thought they were possibly going to remove it. Thankfully it did re-open and it continues to operate as far as I'm aware. Other than when it was closed, I don't think I've ever neglected to ride it when we've visited MGA/PGA/CGA.

Great TR, great video, and I love those shirts. SFOG is my home park, and I think I've been on the Wheelie too many times to count. It's so fun!

My first Enterprise-type ride was actually the Enterprise at the now-defunct Myrtle Beach Pavilion. It was actually my first "upside-down" ride too.

I'm not sure which company made it, because instead of sitting on a bench-style seat, you sit down in an L-shape on a soft pad. I think the lack of an actual seat added to the force of the ride.

Thai - You know what's depressing? How many Thorpe Park PTRs have we seen since SAW opened and not one included a picture of Zodiac. No love from the UK for you. Absolutely none.

Since everyone is getting pictures of enterprises for you, I'll go Monday and get a picture of Screamweaver for you. Ah, Intamin awesomeness packed in the form of an enterprise. It actually was my first ride that goes upside down, and the only ride that still makes me feel a couple inches taller when stepping out of it.

That's definitely a slick looking Huss Enterprise.

Also Thai, I'll get some more photos and even video of Centennial Screamer for you on Saturday! That is if it's running...

Thai, you've struck gold once again! Great job!
Big thank you for the shout out too! Much appreciated.
