Is there any shot this opens this year? I'm headed to the park for a few days in two weeks and I have lost all hope I'll get on this thing. It's a bummer, but with it having only one train I can't say I was looking forward to the line for it.
I really look forward to Cedar Fair hopefully taking over the scheduling of new projects at parks.

Out of curiosity, why doesn’t Six Flags have to file permission for rides yet Cedar Fair does? Isn’t that requured by the local county/city? Or am I missing something?Don't mind me, just over here salivating at the idea of a ton of legacy Six Flags parks having to file for permission to construct rides before they announce them.
I'd love to know what's going on too. Feels like progress was blazing right along and then, suddenly, came to a halt. Anyone seen recent progress updates posted anywhere?
I don't know the inner workings but I've dealt with plenty of builders who would announce something, then file, just to strong arm the locality into approving plans based on public response.Out of curiosity, why doesn’t Six Flags have to file permission for rides yet Cedar Fair does?

No chance. The difference is that Mack had already designed and R&D'ed the system for that ride, Vekoma hasn't.My hope is this will be like the Aquaman thing at SFOT where they delayed it and improved it with the delay. There HAS to be a way to add a loading platform so a train can load while another cycles.

I don’t think the massive spanning corporate transaction is the soul culprit for why this thing isn’t open yet. It seems like the former Six Flags at this point would be to blame for poor planning. The decision to push to 2025 was likely made subsequent to the merger but the guys that took over the C-suite, don’t strike me as fans of opening a new ride in October based on their track record with new rides in the past several years.I think we should blame the six flags & cedar fair merger for screwing things up
