Was anyone else slightly disappointed by the tease?

Edit:Only thing we really got was Kevin saying 95 in response to them asking him. New top speed? Or angle of the drop?

It was even less than BGT's. But I suspect they don't want to upstage the two new 2019 additions.

But I did want one of those hats

Oh shit is this ride gonna be green?

There was zero teasing leading up to this. Don’t know what you expect.

 

[Coaster Takes]

Perhaps a Roman theme because of the emphasis of the Roman numerals? Not a huge assumption because of the location, but hey.

 

[horsesboy]

Yes and no. I would have loved more info but given that thery have two new attraction opening this year as well as a new summer event from a marketing stand point I fully see why they would down play s 2020 attraction to not over shadow 2019.

 

[GrandpaD]

Well, at least we "know" Intim305's recreation was correct about the drop angle - 95°.

 

[BGWnut]

Do we? From what I heard one of the crew members said 90 or 95 and Kevin 95. Maybe it's the top speed. I'm hoping that's what it is

I expected something at least along the lines of what they did for BGT

Probably. Let's hope they don't come up with some ridiculous "Invadr" story or name it "Ben Hurler".

Hence the "know". But crew member vs Park President...I'll take Kevin. And highly doubt it comes close to 95.

 

[BGWnut]

By crew members I was referring to one of the workers that they brought on stage that was part of the tease. From behind the screen one of them said 90 or 95 and Kevin said better make it 95 or something along those lines

Did you read a word I said?

 

[Icer]

Hey now let's all remain calm

 

[GrandpaD]

Welp, if they go back to myth naming....Is "Mercury" too far fetched?

 

[Adam]

They said in the presentation: "is it 90 degrees or is it 95?" and Kevin responded with "I'd say probably 95 degrees." At about 0:33 in the video posted on the FB page.

Thanks. I was in the back and couldn't hear super well. Didn't hear anyone say degrees. Just heard the numbers. Did anyone get a recording by chance?

 

[Ghost of Pretzel Kaiser]

Is the new coaster themed as a spiritual successor to Killarney Komotion?

 

[GrandpaD]

Ok, amplifying @MadridBot's guess...the hats....and now seeing the video with them carrying Roman columns...I agree it's a Roman theme. Toga! Toga!

Hmmm he says Roman Gods. Vulcan is the god of Fire. Maybe that could be a possible name. And the green is obviously part of the theme.

 

[GrandpaD]

I think with a certain nearby Volcano going extinct, I doubt that.
