RollerCoasters

A place to talk about roller coasters and parks that have them. Everyone is welcome here to both learn and to celebrate these magnificent machines designed to scare you.

Here are some important resources:

  1. RCDB
  2. Thrill Data
  3. Coast2Coaster
  4. Terminology and Abbreviations

Images are welcome if they are of high quality and it doesn't get out of hand. Please use PostImages to upload your image and then use that link in the URL field of your post (other image sites are permitted but Post Images has the best policies and compatibility).

Some basic rules:

  1. Opinions, theories, and facts are all welcome – but be clear about what you’re saying.

  2. Back up facts with sources as much as possible

  3. No spam or sell-promotion. Linking to your own media or site is permissible only if it’s specifically related to a topic/post that someone else created.

  4. No photos or videos taken on the rides. This is dangerous and shouldn't be encouraged.

  5. Limit political discussion. When discussed it must be park related.

  6. No fictional coasters (models, no limits, planet coaster, etc)

  7. No posting personal information.

  8. No shaming of anyone. We all can continue to learn and not everyone knows everything -- and that's ok.

Holiday World has announced they are building a new coaster in project "Gravy Boat"

Since they are referencing gravy and showing a picture of the old Pilgrims Plunge location it looks like a Thanksgiving addition..... Perhaps it'll also use the old rapids area as well - or maybe that still is another project?

This will really help fill in the area by Voyage and Thunderbird. I was at the park for the first time recently and was really surprised by just how much undeveloped space they have between those two coasters.

Anyway I think the family boomerang is a solid addition here as it seems right now there is a big intensity gap between their sole family coaster and the other thrill coasters.
