Blind Idiot God Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Hey, they're none the wiser and will eat it up. With any luck, they might give it new trains with restraints that don't make you feel like you're on the losing end of a bar fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ernierocker Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) Six Flags St. Louis is currently home to more roller coasters than any other theme park in Missouri. Well played guys. Edited August 24, 2012 by ernierocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I'm really surprised they're actually calling it Boomerang, considering that Worlds of Fun has had one for over a decade now and calls theirs Boomerang. Worlds of Fun advertised the heck out of theirs when it was built, since that was the same year Six Flags built the Boss, so many of us in Missouri associate the name Boomerang with Worlds of Fun.

Double0Kevin Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I wonder if they will go with the old train, or if they will upgrade to the new one. I haven't been on Carolina Cobra but I've heard it makes the experience much more enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ernierocker Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 ^You would think that they would make that investment since they are already getting a "brand new" discounted ride from SFOT. Of course, it is hard to ever predict what Six Flags will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double0Kevin Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 ^ That's exactly why I speculated. They are the chain that seems to just stick with the out of date trains when they could invest in a new one and still keep the whole ride below the budget of a modestly price new ride.

larrygator Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I wonder if they will go with the old train, or if they will upgrade to the new one. I haven't been on Carolina Cobra but I've heard it makes the experience much more enjoyable. As texcaoster mentioned, the lap bar only trains that run at Wiener Prater are even better than the ones on Carolina Cobra. You put those on and complaints will diminish by 94.7% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bert425 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 so this is going to be Flashback from Six Flags Over Texas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJeXeL Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) Six Flags St. Louis is currently home to more roller coasters than any other theme park in Missouri. I'm just thankful they didn't call it Goliath. Edited August 24, 2012 by DJeXeL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 It should be illegal to use unique and boomerang in the same sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Farmer Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Cool, they even gave it the same name as WOF's, a subtle yet thoughtful tribute from one Missouri park to another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joco07 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 All I have to say, as not only as a Team Member at SFoT and a guest is, to the people of SFSL is..... SUCKERS!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDG Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 so this is going to be Flashback from Six Flags Over Texas? Likely. Hopefully it gets new trains with those flex-restraints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraroc Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Is this a totally new coaster or is it a relocated ride? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind Idiot God Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 It should be illegal to use unique and boomerang in the same sentence. The GP are uninformed enough to not care. As far as they're concerned, it's a ride with inversions and that's all they need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJeXeL Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 ^^Safe to assume it's Flashback from SFOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 They can have "our" Flashback from SFNE if they like... I don't think it's services will be required next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cal1br3tto Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Well I get a repeat credit then next year! Yay! Same. Both in terms of counting it and in terms of hopefully riding it next year (I'm such a rebel). Wait a minute...did I just type that I'm hopefully getting to ride a Boomerang?
