Six Flags Mexico deserve it but the Park its near a protected natural area so they made a request to the goverment and goverment made a poll with the citizens of that area and was rejected, because they needed to remove 200 trees at least. Kind of sad but also if was builded, could be very polemic.

7:57 maybe it's because it's been that color for my whole life, but I unironically like Mind Eraser's current color scheme and I never understood why everyone hated it, yes its horrifically rough and the last time I rode it I was 14 and durable, but I still thought it was fun :) also I will say the renovation is a 100% great thing, and my copium for a Raptor near it is now going strong that sounds like it'd be a great idea

So, since its the end of the season, i will tell you what their cooking. 1st, i am not affiliated with Six Flags/Cedar Fair/FUN or have any insider knowledge, despite being a former ride op in the park. 2nd, i got this info from a friend of the maitness crew who works at the park. Ride of Steel: If you rode ROS this year, you are the lucky. 2025, RIDE OF STEEL WILL BE CLOSED FOR THE ENTIRE SEASON! The ride is indeed next in line for Refurbishing, and it will be major refurbishing. 1st, its getting the predator treatment, new track to replace the old one, new paint and new trains. However, i did some research, and Intermin DOES NOT SELL That model train anymore, and it is confirmed we are getting a second train. So, my theory is the ride's controls are getting ripped out and fully replaced to use the new Intermin trains with the Over the Shoulder lap bars, being more comfortable, hopefully modern indicators so the ride crew can easily see who is not secured, and should prevent tragedies like the one on July 8th, 2011. (Coaster college did a video on the incident that i remembered here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYfbZaN_gJV5b7ssi=HqiCLzkTbBCCY9KB ) Predator: Will Close in 2026 for a refurbishment. mainly structural work, full wooden rertracking or full hybridization or a mix of the 2. a 2nd train is confirmed and i saw physical evidence of this last year. I hope it will also fix any ride programing bugs causing it to be a maintenance nuance (just a computer error thinking a block was occupied when it wasn't. Riders were safely held in the brakes before the station. the computer did work as intended even with the glitch) due to how expensive it was to titan track, i dont think RMC is in the picture, but we'll see 2027. (its actually my favorite all time coaster as of now) Motor coaster: I don't remember the year, but it should also be line for refurbishment. Probably be converted to use Linear Induction Motors for the launch system, or keep its flywheel launch, but i bet the former. 2nd train confirmed as well. Viper: Refurbishment confirmed no later than 2032. 2nd train confirmed, and might be upgraded to automatic locking restraints. Theorized S&S will be contracted to do this. What i do know that this will be done before Vipers 50th anniversary on may 29, 2032 (my 32nd birthday gift, how sweet Six Flags!). However, knowing Cedar Fair, i bet my $1 that viper will return to 3 train operation. Mind Eraser: OPENING 2025. It will be interesting to ride, and i am making plans to visit. *Remainder is speciation* Operations: Since Cedar Fair will be "Taking over" ad the end of the year, i suspect we will see an emphasis on fast operations at darien lake in the future. I will compare the timings next years Food: Cedar Fair is also know for better food. The pizza was good, and i cant wait to see if it better next year (side note, also the frozen custards, because Darien Lake, Key Bank Center and Anderson are in a 3 way tie for my favorite ice-cream place) Boomerang: I wasn't told if they had plans for Boomerang, but i hope they also give it the love and cares it deserves as i actually got a concussion riding it this year, and is as bad as boomerang is back in 2023. SIDE NOTE: I remember Big Kahuna being closed ever time i visited since 2014. I was 100% shocked to see it opened. i though it was on the chopping block to the scrap yard!

This to me shows Six Flags will never have any allegiance to the local areas in which they inhabit and hire from. Just a means to make money, not a morsel of loyalty
@PhongNguyen-po2zi25 күн бұрын
the park was flooded beyond repair and it would take less money to build an entirely new park instead of repairing it. Six flags also quickly went into debt in the 2000's so they didn't have enough money to do either of those things.
@DuecePiece24 күн бұрын
@PhongNguyen-po2zi that is absolute BS, Six Flags didn't build the entire park infrastructure, just added rides to it- as it was already an established park as Jazzland, to say they could build an entirely new park for less is ludicrous. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, even if their opinion is wildly off the mark. By all accounts from those who know and have studied this park extensively will all agree that Six Flags shit on the people of Louisiana, told them lies of loyalty about remaining there for all time only to abandon them all the first chance they got. Six Flags simply can't be trusted.

@DuecePiece23 күн бұрын
@AnakinSkyguy647 no, nor did I ever imply that. What I'm simply saying is Six Flags abandoned the local area the moment they had a chance to even though they were on record saying they were there for "generations to come". Six Flags did use Katrina as a means to screw over the people of Louisiana, much like the government did to the people of New Orleans.
