“King Tigris” Six Flags Great Adventure 2026 Intamin Vertical Launch Coaster | Kingda Ka Replacement

[@davidpalomeque4689]

It would have to go at at least 100 mph and go at least 300 ft to be a worthy replacement for Kingda Ka. Also should be just as intense as Maverick.

[@iamaloser666]

I agree with the second half of that statement 😂

[@LochNessLegend]

Nah needs to be 460 feet to top Ka…

[@iamaloser666]

@@LochNessLegend height ain’t everything and Ka proved that. It doesn’t need to be taller than Ka. Just better and more intense. And it won’t be hard AT ALL to make a ride better than Ka

[@Mehoyboi]

have you ridden velocioaster tho? ill take an intamin LSM like taron and gotham city escape over an intamin strata coaster any day. those coasters are freakin NUTS.

[@MartinDipple-z6o]

@@Mehoyboiyes they’re better but i don’t think anyone outside of the coaster community would be as convinced they’re just not worthy replacements. it’s not just about the ride quality, kingda ka was an an icon.

[@JEDIMIKETTV]

very nice layout, you even gave us a speed hill. dope!

[@thecoasterauthority]

OMG the inversions are 🔥 that’s one hell of a layout! i would LOVE it they got this! i hope cedar fair can get past their beef with intamin, though 😥

[@BackRowCoasters]

@@thecoasterauthority thank you! I’ve heard rumors that cedar point wanted Intamin to work on top thrill 2, but Intamin said they have to remove iron dragon for it to work so they went with Zamperla instead

[@thecoasterauthority]

@ OHHH yesss that does sound familiar. maybe six flags can convince them hahah. imo an intamin blitz or mack extreme spinner are the only things worthy of replacing the king

[@wvkeupits_exren]

@@thecoasterauthority a mack extreme spinner would be so bad as a replacement imo

[@CoasterWolf84]

They could go with Zierer (only because they built Wicked) Mack, or Gurselauer

[@Verdelite]

@@BackRowCoasters thats so stupid why didnt they just tell intamin to come up with sumt else

[@Bobby_Mcdes7088]

Are we all forgetting it’s also green lanterns replacement

[@PenguinStudios-56]

Great idea except I think the Worlds Tallest inversion would better a long with this

[@la2stl]

Not gonna be an Axis coaster?

Is this the same as an intamin blitz?

[@BackRowCoasters]

@@Bamboozled711 yeah but the launch is vertical

[@DISCOTURTLEGAMING]

[@GinaRivera-e4l]

I just hope is worth it because kinda ka was the best ride I ever got in the world 😂❤😭🙏

[@ohthatremindsmeofmypruneju3669]

This layout is sick! Sadly the only thing I'd accept replacing Ka that's not the same height or taller is an I305 intensity level giga with inversions like Maverick's scrapped heartline roll

[@Mehoyboi]

i think im one of the few that agrees that intamins lsm's outclass the intamin strata coaster in every way. id rather have a gotham city escape or a velocicoaster ANY day.

[@TXairportlover]

Yo bro, can you do one for the rest of the cedar fair in Six Flags parks that are getting a new coaster for the 2026 season like Six Flags over Texas also amazing video ❤🤔

[@BackRowCoasters]

Thank you! And also yeah I was planning on it

[@universalgames2901]

At least a 300 foot tall hill or spike, solid theming, and on-board audio

[@edt-ze3ke]

The element at 1:00 looks exactly like an element I put on an RMC about a year ago! Absolutely awesome moment man

[@Mr.SingleRider]

This is really good Not like i have seen it before..

[@ClebyHerris]

This could have a valley problem. The way you put all the slow elements at the end is when rides usually valley because the speed deviation is a lot more the further you go into the layout. Good layout though.

[@BackRowCoasters]

@@ClebyHerris the elements weren’t supposed to be that slow idk what happened when importing it into NL2

[@sebastianstanko739]

The new successor should be higher than the kingda ka, not lower

[@rhysswimmingandgymnastics]

I know where you’re going but tbh Kingda Ka just didn’t look that good of a ride. I can’t say because I’ve never been on it, but it just launches and goes up and back down. Honestly something with a long experience like this and maybe a little taller could be a pretty good fit

[@sebastianstanko739]

@@rhysswimmingandgymnastics So you think that in place of Kingda Ka it would be likely that a new rollercoaster at least 140-160 meters tall would be built? Could this be likely?

[@putty360]

The technology does exist to build a reliable and economical 400 foot launch coaster. I don't know what else to tell you.

[@OwlcityloveBooboo]

It sucks because never go to ride king da ka it was on my roller coaster bucket list so sad I wanted to ride it but king Tigris looks cool tho

[@paulzaw26]

It's gotta be bigger than kingda ka! I think it's so messed up how they didn't officially tell anyone until the end of the season. No respect for there fans and people that have been riding ka for almost 20 years

[@thilton2346]

i mean its a good concept i just think it isnt good enough to replace kingda ka. Or good enough to take up that much space, a bigger concept would be better and more realistic because six flags is investing over 1 billion dollars on their parks, and im sure the most expensive one will be the one that replace kingda ka. So i think that if this coaster was bigger faster and a little bit longer it would be good. But the layout is pretty good, overall its a good concept i just dont think its good enough to replace the open space.

[@BackRowCoasters]

@@thilton2346 ngl but I actually lied about the height, I said in the video that it was 260 but it’s actually more like 290 but I didn’t want people to think it was too unrealistic

[@RadRift]

Good concept but idk if it’s a worthy replacement of king da ka

[@coasterclassifications8844]

Idk why people are acting like kingda ka was some insanely good coaster. It was rough, it was abysmally short, and had barely any airtime going over the top hat. I would much prefer this

very cool concept, but i don't think this would be the one. intamin's coasters have been known to be very, very problematic, which is the reason why kingda ka was removed in the first place.

[@lastone032085]

Bleeding edge always comes with issues. Blitz coasters have had very little in the way of problems unlike the Accelerator model.

[@teamdubstep1007]

Intamin ain’t that problematic at all

[@0dylan]

Have you seen modern intamin? Velocicoaster, Taron, BGCE, Toutatis, Pantheon, Kondaa. They could make this happen pretty darn easy and it would be fantastic.

[@thebabbynick1543]

@@teamdubstep1007well….

[@SawyerMacDonald]

@@0dylan yes, but even these have been a nightmare to run by the park. intamin has had a reputation of having some of the least reliable coasters. so no matter how easy and fantastic this ride could be, it will still almost definitely be a problematic ride to run.

Wait does he have proof?

No. This has to be 400+ feet to be enough for Kingda Ka being demolished

[@0dylan]

Nah, this looks like a way more complete and fun experience than Kingda Ka. Kinda ka is cool but the experience is overall a bit short and not much to it. People are just extra sad right now because its kind of an end of an era.

[@RomanJockMCO]

@0dylan Save the patronizing attitude as it makes you look ignorant. Yes, Ka was kind of a one-trick pony, but that trick is why we liked it. There are so many rollercoasters that offer what this video does that we are spoiled for choice. If you were really in the mood for a beer and someone offered you a chardonnay, would you be satisfied? They're both alcohol. Furthermore, some of us are getting up in our years and not overly interested in yet another twist machine. Skydiving is also a one-trick pony, but there are plenty of people who continue to enjoy it after many jumps. This was a unique ride that offered a unique experience that will not be satisfied thru other means.
