Honestly I wont miss it. The first time I rode it the lapbars weren't working, which was whatever but the thing is I had my thumb pointing straight up underneath the handbar when it randomly slammed down, causing my nail (which was like 5 cm long) to slam down deep into my skin.
The problem with getting rid of Gemini is it takes out a good “stepping stone” coaster. As a kid, I would’ve had a really hard time getting to the bigger coasters (Magnum, Millennium) without it. I just think it gets rid of a pretty good middle ground coaster that would be missed.
F P Maverick’s height requirement is higher than Gemini’s, but it also more intense than Gemini. No it’s not the biggest, but it’s definitely not a good stepping stone coaster.
My brother was the most anti coaster you can get. His stepping stone coaster as a 17 year old was corkscrew... hopped right on gate keeper and steel vengeance after
@@AirtimeThrills it's been okay, better than years past for sure. Though it typically doesn't run in the cold, but since it's its first off season with the new system we'll see how much is need in regards to maintenance by how soon it reopens.
A lot longer, I posted a full comment with my thoughts, but they have a few open spots for a new coaster before they would even have to think about removing a ride. Also Gemini is constantly in the top 5 for ridership in the park, its staying for a long time.
@@CoasterCollege that is nice. My 2nd favorite coaster in the park and my favorite arrow. Then again, I have only ridden 38 coasters, because I am super limited, and and only a teen.
I don’t think Gemini will be removed anytime soon. It has a lot of historic value as opening as the worlds tallest coaster in the 70s. It’s also a really high capacity ride, something Cedar Point really needs. In my opinion, Cedar Creek Mine ride is in more danger. It takes up an even bigger plot of land, with it never having a line, even when the parks at capacity. CCMR can also supply parts for Gemini, which has more historic value blah blah blah
True. As sentimental at CCMR is for me, it being my first coaster that wasn’t a Camp Snoopy ride, I think the possibility of it being removed is gradually increasing.
Meh I don’t care about either I’m not gonna lie the only old coasters I’m attached to are Magnum and Blue Streak which aren’t going anywhere anytime soon although I was sad when they tore down wicked twister
Architect Playz I would play Planet Coaster more if it weren’t too laggy on my computer. I’m probably gonna get it when it comes out on PS4, unless a Switch release is announced in the near future
Cameron Photography , I agree! Take a listen o Mr Nightmare and let me know what you think of his voice. I find it relaxing yet scary at the same time 😂😂🤔🤔👻👻😂😂
The worst is when you have been wanting to ride a coaster for a long time, and just before you get to, it gets removed. That's what happened with Volcano at Kings Dominion. I had been waiting to ride it for years, and it got removed just before I could ride it.
One of the reasons I wish Cedar Fair decided to axe Corkscrew instead of Wicked Twister since those Impulse coasters like it are hard to come by, but unfortunately historic value can trump a lot of stuff.
Right?? I wanted to ride wicked twister…it’s the best version of an overhead impulse coaster. The discovery kingdom flash right is lame that its twisted spike is at an angle (stupid city ordinances), and the straight up spike is boring. Having two vertical twisted spikes sounds like fun…well like it would have been.
The thing is the reason Rolling Thunder did not get the RMC treatment is because the company was way too young at the time and do not have the experience they have today.
TigerRocks503 Aka: Chase Apparently Six Flags wanted to RMC Rolling Thunder but RMC declined because the ride was so poorly maintained and wasn’t adequate for a hybrid. Sucks because it’s my home park.
Before even watching the video, I can guess that this video will mostly be old Arrow loopers, rough woodies, and unreliable Intamins. Also two videos in a row, thanks dude!
Capital Thrills yeah that would be nice. But for now we’re stuck with slcs and boomerangs. Oh, and one of the worst coasters ever built, Goliath at SFNE.
Im sad I never got to go on Deja Vu and I really hope Viper stays. Its so aesthetically pleasing from the sight of that high up loop to the sounds of the chainlift.
I always found it odd that Morgan came in and made Phantom a top ten coaster then never got called again. I also find it odd that Chance made a terrific airtime machine with the Hyper GTX that was really well received and never got called again (I really think Knott's could use one of these!). Wouldn't it be cool if Chance got called in to convert some of these larger Arrow's into ridiculous airtime machines? Could you imagine Viper as a 186ft tall airtime monster? That would be so cool! It just seems to me something could be done to these aging Arrow's instead of just scrapping them.
In graphic design, we had this project where we would make a “vision board”, after which, we went around rating other peoples’ vision boards. We had to give one good thing and one bad thing about each one. One of the bad things I wrote were: “You put Viper in your vision board”
Oh man, Goliath @ SFNE was one of the few times I've felt genuinely afraid to get on a coaster. Those restraints felt like coffins, and the track was very bumpy.
It's not the track it's the crappy trains, when it had the Vekoma trains it was smooth as butter and much more reliable. SFNE needs to scrap the Premier trains and call up Vekoma

SHOCK-A-PEEEEE. I love Excalibur. It’s a great coaster, however I’m sad valleyfair never gets anything new and is “second class” cause it my home park. Along with Nickelodeon universe 🙄
You and ElToryRyan are probably the best roller coaster channels. Some are more fancy, but don't have the same personality. I find that to be the most important part of a YT channel.
Valleyfair is my home park, and, I agree, Excalibur is doomed. I’m surprised it wasn’t higher on your list. It’s tucked way back in the back of the park and hardly anyone goes back there anymore. When I first moved to Minnesota in 1990, it was a really big deal, but that was when Valleyfair only had about 3 coasters.
It's sad that the alleged plans for the spot in the park isn't even gonna be for a new coaster either. There's rumors of it just being a staff parking lot
"There is a law preventing RMC from doing their work in canada" Me: sad canadian noises Holy crap, with this amount of support we can take this to the parlement!
JadenTheRobRenzettiFan NAUTTP Why didn’t Paramount build a South Park at CW? Is it because it’s too mature? Or because Time Warner co-owned Comedy Central at the time?
Coaster Fusion We are like the same person, comment everywhere, both subbed to smaller coaster channels, Home park is SFOT. Coincidence, I think not...
If Time Warp gets sent to my home park, I’m gonna file a class action lawsuit against Cedar Fair, Zamperla, Paramount, Mutual Film Company, Square Enix, Canada, and Muskegon.
Your an employee right? So I heard Eagle is getting new trains? Is this true......I hope it does as it would be stupid to close the ride just cause the park is to lazy to replace the old trains........I’m really scared about American Eagle....I get its old...but I love it the way it is.....but I do wish the park would race it again as they don’t do it anymore possibly due to stress/ structural issues on the helix, and reports of rowdy guests throwing objects at each other while the trains are racing. I wish the park would repair and refurbish the coaster to get it racing again.....but I feel the park president Hank Salemi is not gonna do it......As cool of an RMC redo would be.....I’m just worried the coasters layout would be cut in half like with Twisted Cyclone. Plus I really dig the name too. Im dreading the day when it is announced to close..... 😰🥺😥
@@tigerrocks503chase8 I have no idea, I don't work with eagle, but I can *probably* say that that rumor is false, and us employees are told nothing, lol never trust anybody, but from what it seems eagle is going to stay for the time being.
Well that relieves my stress a bit.....but I’m still bothered by the fact that the park needs to fix the issue with it not racing anymore. A talked to a employee one day working at Eagle. Only blue was running and the line was pretty long which is annoying as running the red side would of made the capacity much better, even if they can’t duel it. So after I got off the blue train....I asked one of the employees why it does not duel anymore? He simply told me that they are not allowed to anymore.....kinda stinks as it kinda defeats the purpose of a racing coaster.
Vortex at kings island was absolutely my favorite ride for nostalgia reasons. I will definitely miss it. I got on it for the last time during the last weekend of haunt, and they had put the dates up and took pictures. Very sad
I think if sfgam got rid of eagle, or rmcd it, it would be a lot better. It’s so rough, and uncomfortable. If they rmcd it I think it would be like twisted colossus. If they tear it down, intamin could probably build a nice new coaster, unlike the American eagle.
As much as I would like them to, they definetly won't be building any new coasters for a while at the park. And if they did, it would be tiny and short. They better rmc that thing
Sparky Student I would have to disagree with you there. Sure, the American Eagle isn’t the smoothest rollercoaster out there, but I wouldn’t say it’s uncomfortable by any means. I feel it gives it character to the ride. Even for being an older coaster, I find it has great airtime hills and is overall still a fun experience. However, I can understand the reasons on why it might be a good idea to RMC the coaster. Though, I feel destroying the ride would cause Great America to lose a bit of its charm.
@@invertedthrills144 I guess that's why it was removed. It wasn't so bad, but I noticed on rcdb that all of Kings Island's looping coasters pulled greater than 3gs. I think they need a "low intensity" "family" inverting looping coaster.
Really wish they could have maintained American Eagle better. Been there several times now and I don’t know if I ever remembered both sides being open, but it always looks cool when you’re going by on the highway. It needs a retrack bad, I wouldn’t want to see it go.
I love gold rusher, one of my favorite rides.. I know it’s a kiddie ride but gold rusher and ninja are always on my list if I’m walking by and I see no line.
1. Anything with a recent new paint job has plans to be around for awhile. 2. Valley Fair has such few coasters there that it would be hard to justify a removal, especially without a good replacement. 3. California Great America Grizzly had enough recent track work done to ride almost as smooth as a steel coaster. 4. Cedar Fair also looks at the cost per ride of each person, which may or may not say much, because the best rides probably cost the most. 5. In my opinion, I agree with about 95% of all your opinions, across all your videos.
I have never had any headbanging at all on Viper at SFMM. Granted, I've always sat towards the front, but I find the coaster smooth and I would be sad to see it go.
I would say more likely to take out Tidal wave and use the space that it sits in and where Green Lantern was. They could even keep it a water ride just bigger and updated.
Yes. I never found Viper to be that bad in the way of roughness so I don’t see what the fuss is about with that one. Granted, it’s not the smoothest thing in the world, but it’s not unbearably rough IMO, either.
The only reason Anaconda is still standing is because they got rid of volcano and Cedar Fair doesn’t want to remove another coaster at KD until they get a new one.
I like how every time we question if Cedar Point will remove Gemini, it's always something else. We questioned if Wicked Twister or Gemini would be the spot for the new coaster, Wicked Twister got the axe. We questioned if Gemini may be removed to make room for a new coaster, Top Thrill Dragster is either being remodeled or removed. Cedar Fair must be a Gemini fan too cause every time coaster crowds point to Gemini to be removed, they remove something else.
I hope American Eagle can still stay around for even another 5 or 6 years. For such an old ride it's still very fun and the blue side is very smooth for a woodie. It's my 4th favorite ride at the park and I love to ride it once or twice a trip. Not to mention how iconic it is, it would just feel kind of wierd driving down the highway and not passing that helix and seeing whatever elements RMC (Or now GCI) put into it. I still think it would be even the best ride in the park if it is RMC'ed, but I like it as it is.
Airtime Thrills ok good. As that being my home park everytime there I look at that massive thousand or two ton monstrosity that I would rather impaling my stomach than taking up that plot of land. I’d rather the actual goliath itself take his massive hands and use them to wrap them fully around my neck and crank it cleanly off before I’d debate riding this
My all-time favorite arrow coaster is definitely Tennessee Tornado at Dollywood. It's such a good ride with a short wait, beautiful layout built on a mountain, and a beautiful view. I hope it never gets taken down.
@@tigerrocks503chase8 It is not that park is not allowed to race. It is the fact that the ride is old and wear and tear has set in. The ride is rough in spots especially in the helix. It has been known to shake while racing around the helix.
As a local to Carowinds, I have to say that Carolina cyclone and nighthawk are both coasters that I would love to stay as a time capsule of design, but I'd have no problem for them to get axed in favor of something better if there was good reason to remove them. If anything, I'd love to have a new wooden coaster on the plot of land that houses nighthawk. A lot of people are still very sad and very disappointed that Carolina thunder road was removed.
My home park is Six flags Great America and eagle is the by far the most painful coaster at the park( some people may disagree because of demon) but I think some sort of RMC similar to twisted colossus or possibly a raptor I would love to see either though.
2:04 You know Viper’s still there right? I know you’re talking about the Mega Loopers, but ok. Also if someone like B&M made modern clones of them I wouldn’t be as sad to see it go. Also I’m nervous on RMC’s future as they may do too many projects at once. Gemini’s removal is going to anger GP->E. Removing GA’s Green Lantern makes sense as it’s awful, and we already have a floor less. Just convert it and give it to Frontier City for an easy attendance booster. Considering were receiveing JDevil in 2020, 2023 would be a perfect oppurtunity to put a big flagship ride. Why is that the first coaster I see when in the parking lot is Green Lantern (K Ka excluded).
12:09 I REMEMBER ! Goliath was a huge upgrade to flashback ! I was hoping they got rid of flashback back then to put a launch coaster of some sort. It’s really unfortunate they haven’t been able to fix the problems. Haven’t been to New England in years since moving to California :( I loved that ride other than Superman !
As a former ride op at six flags great America, it’s a rumor that American Eagle can’t go anywhere due to new building codes. If they get rid of it, they could never put anything in it’s place due to its proximity to the highway. Most likely, they’ll give it the RMC treatment in order to keep their land
@@3rectilefunction200 Mind Eraser was awful. Predator gave me black & blues on my ribs from the strong laterals but those Vekoma hang & bangs are awful.
Predator would be good if it were smooth. It's not. RMC it. Mind Eraser should be replaced. I suggest it be replaced with a Railblazer Raptor single rail type coaster.

I always get exited to watch your vids! Keep up the good work!
SHOCK-A-PEEEEE. I love Excalibur. It’s a great coaster, however I’m sad valleyfair never gets anything new and is “second class” cause it my home park. Along with Nickelodeon universe 🙄
I can’t wait to come back to this video 5 years from now and see which of these coasters are still standing.
You and ElToryRyan are probably the best roller coaster channels. Some are more fancy, but don't have the same personality. I find that to be the most important part of a YT channel.
I'll come back to this video 5 years from now and see how many of the 20 (21) coasters have been removed, lol
Valleyfair is my home park, and, I agree, Excalibur is doomed. I’m surprised it wasn’t higher on your list. It’s tucked way back in the back of the park and hardly anyone goes back there anymore. When I first moved to Minnesota in 1990, it was a really big deal, but that was when Valleyfair only had about 3 coasters.
Go ride Excalibur! Omg it’s so fun! It’s my favorite ride at ValleyFair and it’s so sad to think they might take it out…
It's sad that the alleged plans for the spot in the park isn't even gonna be for a new coaster either. There's rumors of it just being a staff parking lot
oml this was the video the coaster communitty could have used so people would shut up about the final terrible woodies, and viper. epic video
GEMINI TO MICHIGAN"S ADVENTURE
That would be much better than removing it. It holds to much value to me
Sure. Then my mom is gonna call it the Step by Step Coaster.
Maybe
You can't relocate that ride, it is welded together.

I got scared when V2 from SFDK was in the thumbnail
Same it's one of my favorites at SFDK
last time I was there I just kept riding it over and over
I was just listening to another bites the dust on my way home from school and got deja vu
The dislike is from someone who was on a roller coaster who tried to like the video
I clogged the toilet nah, it’s because of V2.

Coaster Fusion Already man 😂
Coaster Fusion We are like the same person, comment everywhere, both subbed to smaller coaster channels, Home park is SFOT. Coincidence, I think not...
@@lukestreams5956 Lol
Luke Streams I mean I comment to everything, sub to smaller channels, and live 45 minutes away from SFOT
I mean, in another universe Desperado was able to survive nuclear fallout so I don't think it's going anywhere.
Always coming up with good lists
I saw Gemini in the thumbnail and started saying to myself, “It’s just a video.. It’s just a video...”
If Time Warp gets sent to my home park, I’m gonna file a class action lawsuit against Cedar Fair, Zamperla, Paramount, Mutual Film Company, Square Enix, Canada, and Muskegon.
Ok, so you want them to send Flight Deck instead?
Maybe repaint it yellow and red?
TheSonicsean sure. It would flush Twisted Colossus down the toilet.
@@TheSonicsean They have to change the restraints to much less painful one
Square Enix? why that? I understood the other ones but what did se do

RMC American Eagle, Six Flags Great America
American Eagle
to
*MAGNIFICENT EAGLE!!!!!*
I would like New American Eagle. Cause I like it’s name. Just put new in front of it like New Texas Giant.
the joke with us employees is "Ste-gle"
Your an employee right? So I heard Eagle is getting new trains? Is this true......I hope it does as it would be stupid to close the ride just cause the park is to lazy to replace the old trains........I’m really scared about American Eagle....I get its old...but I love it the way it is.....but I do wish the park would race it again as they don’t do it anymore possibly due to stress/ structural issues on the helix, and reports of rowdy guests throwing objects at each other while the trains are racing.
I wish the park would repair and refurbish the coaster to get it racing again.....but I feel the park president Hank Salemi is not gonna do it......As cool of an RMC redo would be.....I’m just worried the coasters layout would be cut in half like with Twisted Cyclone. Plus I really dig the name too. Im dreading the day when it is announced to close..... 😰🥺😥
@@tigerrocks503chase8 I have no idea, I don't work with eagle, but I can *probably* say that that rumor is false, and us employees are told nothing, lol never trust anybody, but from what it seems eagle is going to stay for the time being.
Well that relieves my stress a bit.....but I’m still bothered by the fact that the park needs to fix the issue with it not racing anymore. A talked to a employee one day working at Eagle. Only blue was running and the line was pretty long which is annoying as running the red side would of made the capacity much better, even if they can’t duel it. So after I got off the blue train....I asked one of the employees why it does not duel anymore?
He simply told me that they are not allowed to anymore.....kinda stinks as it kinda defeats the purpose of a racing coaster.
I like how the time warp and flight deck plot is shaped like a thumbs down
The only time ive like american eagle is when they run it backwards. Its kinda rough but if i remember is smoother in reverse.
Been binge watching your stuff while multitasking lately. Two thumbs up, best coaster channel i've found.
Vortex at kings island was absolutely my favorite ride for nostalgia reasons. I will definitely miss it. I got on it for the last time during the last weekend of haunt, and they had put the dates up and took pictures. Very sad
Damn it my noti didn’t work...well I saw your insta and I clicked faster then dragster after that
Dope channel aways strongly look forward to new videos keep them coming airtime
I think if sfgam got rid of eagle, or rmcd it, it would be a lot better. It’s so rough, and uncomfortable. If they rmcd it I think it would be like twisted colossus. If they tear it down, intamin could probably build a nice new coaster, unlike the American eagle.
As much as I would like them to, they definetly won't be building any new coasters for a while at the park. And if they did, it would be tiny and short. They better rmc that thing
Sparky Student I would have to disagree with you there. Sure, the American Eagle isn’t the smoothest rollercoaster out there, but I wouldn’t say it’s uncomfortable by any means. I feel it gives it character to the ride. Even for being an older coaster, I find it has great airtime hills and is overall still a fun experience. However, I can understand the reasons on why it might be a good idea to RMC the coaster. Though, I feel destroying the ride would cause Great America to lose a bit of its charm.
The Demon is a classic, this was my first ride when it was Marriott Great America and I loved it.
California’s Great America, or Six Flags Great America?
Both parks were originally Marriotts Great America.
Goliath at Six Flags America is never open?
Well, as a former SFGA season passholder, that sentence gives me...Deja Vu.
Hahaha true that
RIP Deja Vu
0:12. I rode Vortex for the first (and only time) in July.
I rode it 4 times over my last visit. I actually really liked it. It had a minimal line so it was easy to ride.
@@invertedthrills144 I guess that's why it was removed. It wasn't so bad, but I noticed on rcdb that all of Kings Island's looping coasters pulled greater than 3gs. I think they need a "low intensity" "family" inverting looping coaster.
We'll all miss vortex
Goliath from Six Flags New England will probably be transferred to La Ronde as that is where they dump all their failed Magic Mountain coasters.
Really wish they could have maintained American Eagle better. Been there several times now and I don’t know if I ever remembered both sides being open, but it always looks cool when you’re going by on the highway. It needs a retrack bad, I wouldn’t want to see it go.
V2??? YOU TAKE THAT BACK!!! 😭😭😭
I thought Goldrusher was less jarring than viper the last time I went to magic mountain
IMO that most jarring coaster experience at SFMM is X2 (outside seats). I enjoyed the inside seats (much more smooth than the outside seats).
I love gold rusher, one of my favorite rides.. I know it’s a kiddie ride but gold rusher and ninja are always on my list if I’m walking by and I see no line.
That bite the dust pun was ICONIC
1. Anything with a recent new paint job has plans to be around for awhile. 2. Valley Fair has such few coasters there that it would be hard to justify a removal, especially without a good replacement. 3. California Great America Grizzly had enough recent track work done to ride almost as smooth as a steel coaster. 4. Cedar Fair also looks at the cost per ride of each person, which may or may not say much, because the best rides probably cost the most. 5. In my opinion, I agree with about 95% of all your opinions, across all your videos.
Earlier today on Kentucky kingdom’s Instagram they teased that they were removing T3 and tagged RMC
I have never had any headbanging at all on Viper at SFMM. Granted, I've always sat towards the front, but I find the coaster smooth and I would be sad to see it go.
I would say more likely to take out Tidal wave and use the space that it sits in and where Green Lantern was. They could even keep it a water ride just bigger and updated.
Yes. I never found Viper to be that bad in the way of roughness so I don’t see what the fuss is about with that one. Granted, it’s not the smoothest thing in the world, but it’s not unbearably rough IMO, either.
Last time I visited a few years ago it was so painful I spent the rest of the day nursing a headache.
@@98dizzard I've had much worse experiences with Scream than Viper.
Wicked twister has been removed, and I am realizing that Airtime Thrills predicted this happening. Good job!
The only reason Anaconda is still standing is because they got rid of volcano and Cedar Fair doesn’t want to remove another coaster at KD until they get a new one.
You there will be a time in the deep future where Fury 325 would be gone as everything can’t last forever....unfortunately.
Furry 325 is awesome
Hey, there might be something that dooms B&Ms and Intamins like RMC DID
Every Arrow Looper on paper should because they don't last 50 years lol
Hey, Loch Ness Monster is 42 years old and it’s holding up pretty good.
Wicked Twister is LOOOOOOOONG gone and Face-Off is still going strong at KI!
Cool to watch this now knowing what’s coming for wildcat.
I like how every time we question if Cedar Point will remove Gemini, it's always something else.
We questioned if Wicked Twister or Gemini would be the spot for the new coaster, Wicked Twister got the axe.
We questioned if Gemini may be removed to make room for a new coaster, Top Thrill Dragster is either being remodeled or removed.
Cedar Fair must be a Gemini fan too cause every time coaster crowds point to Gemini to be removed, they remove something else.
you're constantly saying RMC it, you could also just let GCI rework the track if it's still a good layout
also take a shot every time he says RMC
Invertigo was on the wall of death at KI with firehawk and vortex. I think it will definitely be going. I’m thinking at the end of next season.
Hopefully it's about time hopefully the bat at Kings Island stays.
I hope American Eagle can still stay around for even another 5 or 6 years. For such an old ride it's still very fun and the blue side is very smooth for a woodie. It's my 4th favorite ride at the park and I love to ride it once or twice a trip. Not to mention how iconic it is, it would just feel kind of wierd driving down the highway and not passing that helix and seeing whatever elements RMC (Or now GCI) put into it. I still think it would be even the best ride in the park if it is RMC'ed, but I like it as it is.
Welp guess he was right with the wicked twister one
Haven't watched the video yet, if Goliath at SFNE isn't here idk what to say.
Oh its on there
Airtime Thrills ok good. As that being my home park everytime there I look at that massive thousand or two ton monstrosity that I would rather impaling my stomach than taking up that plot of land. I’d rather the actual goliath itself take his massive hands and use them to wrap them fully around my neck and crank it cleanly off before I’d debate riding this
Goliath used to be a way better ride before it got that new train from Chance Rides.
It’s a shame Goliath has now turned into a pile of junk.
My all-time favorite arrow coaster is definitely Tennessee Tornado at Dollywood. It's such a good ride with a short wait, beautiful layout built on a mountain, and a beautiful view. I hope it never gets taken down.
So far, only Wicked Twister and Goliath are entirely gone. Wildcat was RMC'd and Desperado is being prepared to potentially reopen
The American eagle is my favorite coaster of all time. I would be heartbroken. I pray for the retracking.
Same here. I love it the way it is. Problem is the park is not allowed to race it anymore.
They have attempted multiple retracks on it but it does not help with the ride not racing anymore.
Indeed it was.
@@tigerrocks503chase8 It is not that park is not allowed to race. It is the fact that the ride is old and wear and tear has set in. The ride is rough in spots especially in the helix. It has been known to shake while racing around the helix.
I knew age was a factor to it non racing.
Volcano, made my plans to visit kd the day before they announced its removal....
As a local to Carowinds, I have to say that Carolina cyclone and nighthawk are both coasters that I would love to stay as a time capsule of design, but I'd have no problem for them to get axed in favor of something better if there was good reason to remove them. If anything, I'd love to have a new wooden coaster on the plot of land that houses nighthawk. A lot of people are still very sad and very disappointed that Carolina thunder road was removed.
You were right about wildcat and wicked twister
5:55 I need an RMC at my home park. #RMCHurler
Then you would have no wooden coaster.
They have Woodstock Express, It's also a woodie
Viper is my literal favorite and if the remove it I would be so sad
It's my favorite large Arrow looper (even over Tenn Tornado, which is too short IMO).
My home park is Six flags Great America and eagle is the by far the most painful coaster at the park( some people may disagree because of demon) but I think some sort of RMC similar to twisted colossus or possibly a raptor I would love to see either though.
the grizzly is a classic but it literally hurts to ride if you have mild back issues and the park is aware of that.
2:04 You know Viper’s still there right? I know you’re talking about the Mega Loopers, but ok. Also if someone like B&M made modern clones of them I wouldn’t be as sad to see it go. Also I’m nervous on RMC’s future as they may do too many projects at once. Gemini’s removal is going to anger GP->E. Removing GA’s Green Lantern makes sense as it’s awful, and we already have a floor less. Just convert it and give it to Frontier City for an easy attendance booster. Considering were receiveing JDevil in 2020, 2023 would be a perfect oppurtunity to put a big flagship ride. Why is that the first coaster I see when in the parking lot is Green Lantern (K Ka excluded).
Only one who wants an sns launch coaster using viper like a phantoms revenge eque layout but it's called el Toro.
12:09 I REMEMBER ! Goliath was a huge upgrade to flashback ! I was hoping they got rid of flashback back then to put a launch coaster of some sort. It’s really unfortunate they haven’t been able to fix the problems. Haven’t been to New England in years since moving to California :(
I loved that ride other than Superman !
As a former ride op at six flags great America, it’s a rumor that American Eagle can’t go anywhere due to new building codes. If they get rid of it, they could never put anything in it’s place due to its proximity to the highway. Most likely, they’ll give it the RMC treatment in order to keep their land
We can only pray mind eraser and predator at Darien lake will be gone
Ryan I preferred Mind Eraser to Boomerang
No way. Mind Eraser is way rougher.
@@3rectilefunction200 Mind Eraser was awful. Predator gave me black & blues on my ribs from the strong laterals but those Vekoma hang & bangs are awful.
Coasterdude02149 Mind Eraser at least has inversions and stuff, Predator tries to do things but fails miserably
Predator would be good if it were smooth. It's not. RMC it.
Mind Eraser should be replaced. I suggest it be replaced with a Railblazer Raptor single rail type coaster.
