I doubt Hershey will be adding a 4D free spin that personally but I could be wrong. I think it'll be a dark ride or something like that. Or maybe they'll move Wild Mouse to make room to expand the Boardwalk.
I really hope SFFT gets a GCI as that would be a great addition to the park. They don't have a wooden coaster now right?

Well HerhseyPark announced Laff Trakk, and indoor Maurer Shohne spinner with some pretty awesome looking theming.

Still no clue where that S&S freespin is going, but that's one park to mark off the list.

Seems like a solid addition but it costs them $14 million which seems way too much for an unoriginal layout. Nonetheless great family ride.

That ride actually looks terrifying and completely disorienting. I felt sick just watching the ride POV...

^Sure is!
Fury looks like a real winner! Totally immense. Tallest traditional coaster in the world. I wonder how long before someone breaks the 100 MPH mark without a launch? Seems like Fury is pushing it real close. I love the sports tie in to.
And, dat color scheme. Yummy. -

Looks amazing. Thank you, B&M, for entering the world of 300+ ft tall rides. Maybe it's me, but Leviathan looks like a shortened version of Fury, as if the funds weren't there or some other aspect of the project didn't allow for the full version at the time? :S Regardless, it's good to see a beefy giga layout from B&M. Here's to many more. Can't wait to see what the company will do in the future, maybe breaking the 400 ft mark? 500 ft? One can dream!

At current pace of 19 feet of additional height every 3 years, we'll see the first 400 foot B&M by 2027. Lol.
I wonder if they'll ever make an airtime machine over 300 feet? The two so far are more focused on speed. Which I like honestly as airtime is not as exciting.

That coaster looks beautiful. However, it also looks terrifying. I'm beginning to realize the older I get, I become more of a pussy when it comes to rides. I'm lucky I survived Ride of Steel and that was only 200ft. But 300? Christ.

Six Flags announcments coming up! Super pumped for SFFT's BTR, and excited to see what RMC does with Cyclone and Colossus.

Love the RMC remakes on Colossus and Cyclone, also SFFT's B:TR looks like a good bit of fun.
So annoyed they're calling the ring of fire rides coasters tho...

Wicked Cyclone looks unreal even though I'm a little mad the classic ride is gone also amazed what they did with Colossus, that looks fucking sick.

Why do they keep calling those big circles coasters? And why are they adding one at every park?
