So dumb thinking, but considering the most recent version of the Knotts B&M seem to be ditching that Giga approach..

*nudges to SFMM*

What if they get convinced to go for it?

As much as I’d like to see that, there’s no way they could afford that.

They're under new management, which is much much more into the "large, unique heavy hitter for a single park" investment as of last year...

I thought Jim Ried Anderson and his lightly themed carnival spinners were drawing in the crowds though LOL

As much as I would love to see a big coaster, the park really needs a lot more flat rides. A good flat ride package would be welcome before another large coaster.

Exactly

While I'd like that too, we know that isn't happening. We'll be lucky if we get one on an off year like Crazanity.

It looks like we're in the midst of a mini coaster war, and SFMM isn't about to miss out on that. lol

Well if we’re going to get a good mega coaster, Viper would be a prime target for a replacement.

Take ninja leave viper

Why do we know it isn't happen? A number of SF parks in the chain have made announcements of flat ride packages instead of a coaster in recent memory. So it isn't unheard of.

If we are in a coaster war, I think only SFMM is playing. That battle was years ago, and it essentially ended when Cedar Point went for park quality over quantity.

 

[Southerncoasterer]

^ It's not happening because it's Magic Mountain. I'm not sure why I'd need to say more than that. I can count on one hand the number of flats they have gotten in the last 30 years lol. And instead of adding a flat to DC Universe, they actually removed one. And how long has Drop Of Doom been closed now? I mean the list goes on and on.

As for the coaster wars, both SFMM and Sea World ARE playing, soon to be joined by Knotts and Cedar Point. Knotts doesn't have to build anything, and yet they are, and they don't care how awkward the coaster looks .

You really want people to hate you don't you?

Heck now even USH is stepping into the coaster war in SoCal! I agree the park really needs more flats. I could see them add some later with the new management in SF, but even then, they will probably want to focus more on coasters.

I just don't see SFMM getting a giga, but maybe they could get rid of Viper to put an actually good B&M hyper in the park?

 

[Southerncoasterer]

^ If Ninja and Viper are living on borrowed time, I'd love to see SF partner with Mack Rides and build a hyper looper and extreme spinner.

Yeah, I love to dream lol

 

[Jerroddragon]

Viper is too rough and Ninja is great for everyone...so yeah not even a contest Viper should be next to go

Looks like we’re testing Lex Luther today. Windy day so X2 and Tatsu were closed.

 

[baconwhiskers]

Tatsu is using the station it never uses today and in that scenario single rider closes just a heads up. Saw Lex testing too.

edit: never mind there’s another side staircase with no signs pointing to it.
edit edit: u can’t seem to access it actually so i guess no single rider until they finish fixing the other station

 

[JS610]

Wonder Woman is only a few pieces away now. Also Lex was testing

 

[SailwiththeTide]

WW has topped off today. Nice

Wonder Woman topped off, and the construction fence removed! Still a lot of work to do on the station, gift shop and DC Universe area, so still weeks away from opening. Excited to ride my second single rail this summer!

 

[baconwhiskers]

I miss railblazer so I'm hoping its at least a little bit like it

 

[Wesker69]

Riddler needs to get it's supports painted back to black... too much yellow
