Texas Stingray is getting great reviews so far.

And, the park has already broken ground on their next attraction, rumored to be a Screamin' Swing.



Seems like they may be targeting Christmas openings for a few new attractions...

Is that also in the area with the rest of the flats that they debuted two years ago?
 
It's between Bayside Stadium and Journey To Atlantis along the lake (so, sort of).
It's a roughly 3-acre space. Seems kind of big for a Screamin' Swing, but it's still early in the rumor stage.

Just read a rumor about it being a Mack Powersplash, and with the exception of their JTA being not-dissimilar, it would make sense. Especially since they are emphasizing the scale of the announcement, and they first teased it at an ACE (Coaster Enthusiast) conference.
 
SeaWorld San Antonio is really getting aggressive with pass pricing-- $79 for all of 2021 and the rest of 2020 with no blockout dates. They're also eliminating their January/February closure and offering year-round operations in 2021.

 
It's hot there in the summer and it's a water themed park. A new, innovative water coaster sounds like a good fit.
 
Another water coaster?

I don't consider JtA at the park a credit but....another water coaster?

Seems to be one of two prototypes of a Intamin Giga-Splash model, though in this case is for smaller vehicles. Think Chiapa's ride vehicle but for this:

Combined with other projects (like DarKoaster) I love that parks like SeaWorld are handing cash for Intamin to do "things". Random, weird things. But amazing things as it looks.
