    Saw that this morning. Definitely wasn't expecting that.

  • Stoksy%s's Photo

    Ugh; I really don't like the blue and green track...

    What does this mean !?!?

  • Roomie%s's Photo

    Well thats the floorless trains pretty much confirmed then :p

  • 202mitch%s's Photo

    Maybe they are going to change Mantis' name, make it floorless, and give it a brand new paint-job? Surely they cant be removing it. That would just be... murder.

  • Meretrix%s's Photo

    So excited to ride the Twisted Collosus....glad they didnt remove it altogether. That was one of my first "big boy" rollercoasters...waaaaaayyyyy back in 1978.

  • Austin55%s's Photo
    I actually really enjoyed mantis. Sad to see it go..
  • MorganFan%s's Photo

    Ugh...

    "King James"

  • Ling%s's Photo

    Mantis was incredibly painfully rough the last time I rode it, any overhaul would be nice. Flat-out removing it though... kinda strange considering there are older rides in worse condition at that park.

  • MorganFan%s's Photo

    Yeah I rode Mantis summer 2013 and my legs practically got raped. I don't thing my skinny thighs will ever forgive my high center of gravity.

  • Sephiroth%s's Photo

    Mantis is gonna be a floorless!

    ROU-FUCKING-GAROU!

     

    Seriously so pumped for this.  Turns a mediocre ride into one of the best at the park and fills a whole in the lineup of not having a good sit-down looping coaster (Gatekeeper sort of filled this but it's more of a specialty/ unique style like a flyer or dive machine).  

     

    Now to give Mean Streak the RMC treatment...

  • Austin55%s's Photo

    Wow check out this little Gravity Group going to a tiny park called ZDT's in central... you know where.

    Is that intended to be serious? That's dreadful.

  • ][ntamin22%s's Photo

    ^It's like a diabolical Chance Toboggan. 

  • Steve%s's Photo

    While I admire the engineering and sheer amount of effort it's going to take to make that Skyplex coaster a reality, it doesn't stop it from looking absolutely terrifying. Jesus.

  • nin%s's Photo

    tbh I'm a bit bummed this will be considered the tallest in the world... It's just not that aesthetically pleasing like the stratas are. A tower of mangled track may be fun, but it just looks "meh".

    Definitely suits that area though. Full of higher-end roadside attractions.
