I gotta give props to six flags, they’re really putting the effort in to make the parks a lot nicer! Love to see it! Keep up the good work Colin!!!

LOL "Idk why this park has the reputation it does" fast forward to all the rides breaking down and being closed.... that is why it has the reputation along with the people that go there being violent and just shitty in general cutting lines, starting problems. It really shouldn't be that bad of a park but that's exactly why it is... the people suck, reliability is lousy, and they tend to not take care of the park once it's updated. It's great they put some money into it and updated things but check back in couple years and see what it's like.

I will say that after the media event, I definitely saw some flaws. There’s a reason we didn’t stay very long after riding Superman & Joker’s Jinx 😅

Hopefully they RMC roar and it’s an original layout. This parks really needs an original coaster , but on more positive note it’s good to see Six Flags making the park look nicer

I went here for my first time last year! Man I actually loved this park. They could use a new ride though.I know everyone says rmc roar, but I loved roar! Thought it was great. They could use honestly anything besides a woodie. I would love to see one of the new Vekomas!

I'm actually happy for my home park for the first time in a long while. Didn't know Professor Screamore's SkyWinder was reprofiled (according to rcdb; it still has the standard SLC layout). New trains worth it. What do you think happens next coaster wise for Six Flags America? More and more, I think Batwing stays (it's a unique ride for sure).
@ColiwoodStudios2 ай бұрын
I shouldn’t have used the word reprofiled, but there was significant work done to the track to increase the ride’s longevity from what we were told. I’d love to see Roar RMC’d!

If I was in charge of Six Flags America, I'd focus on some park improvements, adding a new Justice League dark ride, convert Roar into an RMC Hybrid and re-theme their Hurricane Harbor water park to something that ties in with the area.

Mind Eraser at my home park Six Flags Darien Lake is going to get the same treatment for next year, it'll be interesting what they're going to do with the area because Grizzly Run, our old Intamin river rapids ride (from 1989 i believe) been sitting abandoned for the past couple of years which is also in the same area as Mind Eraser, could it get rethemed like SFA? But Great video showing off the new area and the rest of the park, more bumper car rides should get rid of the divider, it's more fun going which ever way you want.

I dont know if its because it was media day and the land isnt open yet or if they didnt plan for it, but really noticeably missing is area music. I think a mix of country western and electronic (there are some bands that blend the two well) would be great. The architecture and paint look beautiful. The orange color of the midway too. The bumper cars would definitely benefit from some audio.
@ColiwoodStudios2 ай бұрын
I noticed that too. I’m guessing it was because of media day, but I did see speakers around the area. The Bumper Cars were not finished yet, but we were told the park still wanted to give us a preview of them
