I hope we'll get a solid cycle length with several max swings.

Hopefully the FF rumors aren't true so that there will actually be more than one flat I care to ride for once.

Not that it necessarily means anything, but they did at least include FF in the concept art background, so maybe it's still safe for now? If the company is willing to resurrect Tidal Twister at SWSD, I'd like to think they'll invest in fixing a flat ride that people actually like.

I'm interested to see how the queue and surrounding area are going to look, seems like not much is left from Rhino Rally from the pictures. Also, I wonder what the odds are of the miniscule rockwork from the concept art actually making it into the finished thing lol.

I will say again that these Screamin' Swings are insanely fun

I also think these are the appropriate types of flat rides for parks like BGT

Some flat rides can feel like an endurance test...these are just pure fun

Insanely fun. Hard to "theme". Perfect for a park like BGT. Not so much for EPCOT.

I think the one in Dollywood fits in pretty nicely...I also like the colors on this one

As far as Epcot...yeah..that's kind of a tricky park to do a new ride in regardless

Agreed, plus it’s finally something new that’s not a roller coaster which the park needs. I just wish they’d have put it next to Tigris or in place of Phoenix and found something else to put here, given the pretty much unanimous criticism of Finnegan’s Flyer ruining the area it’s in. Hopefully the trees around it help deaden some of the screaming and pneumatic noise, otherwise the Serengeti is going to be loud from now on.

Plenty of room for a coaster...especially in 2024/5

Especially if it's Rhino themed

Any word on Passholder previews? It was listed as a benefit/reward on the site a few weeks ago, and now it's non-existent.

I'm very interested to read reviews on this from everyone who has yet to experience a Screamin Swing

I will again say, they are ridiculously fun

Great addition to BGT
