2013 Rumours

[rayfromboro]

sky flyer & driving school to be gone. The new ride to be on the driving school site & the new ride for the corkscrew site is rumoured to be a rollercoaster Like Air from alton towers

Maybe Vekoma's attempt at a flying coaster?

Nah Ray probs hit it spot on. Its FL they've gone from Vekoma land to Zamperla land now. As much as I really, really don't to see a Volare they're supposed to be THE worst coasters going so rough and painful! I'd much rfather see a Vekoma or a compact B&M intense flyer.

[AeRo]

Doublel, Vekoma had the first flyer

Yeah Zamperla land does spring to mind

I still want to see a Vekoma SFC.

oooh, loving the sound of that!

[otwidalepda]

This is an issue I see. I would love to see a flying coaster - I said they should get one ages ago as part of Swoosh! But now it seems to go in Metropolis it wont fit and Swoosh! will always look small and unfinished and too close to a prehistoric land!!!!! An this also makes me feel that the IP deal has fallen through

[Terry]

I'm confused. The original post says this ride is for both sites. Where exactly is this rumoured ride supposed to be?

[Sir Coastalot]

Nowhere hopefully lol

[Aidan]

Please no more bloody Zamperla crap, we have enough now :p

Would be good to see something from Vekoma again

[AeRo]

Well said the last two posters. Zamperla stuff is generally quite tacky, rough and unreliable. Vekoma is the manufacturer of choice now, surely.

[VELOCITY RULES]

Same here, I like the sound of a similar ride to air, a Vekoma not a tacky Zamperla, the park will be full of Zamperla's !!

[Aidan]

Its just all tacky, ugly, unproven, low capacity tat really, although the current Zamperla stuff is okay, but nothing else is needed from them. Vekoma or Intamin makes more sense surely.

[AeRo]

Yeah Aidan, but Vekoma comes with reliability.

I doubt it would fit in well with that area personally!

[otwidalepda]

It should be in Swoosh!! - But it wont happen now with Pterodactyl there

[Jonesy85]

Old corkscrew site its prime for new big ride not much room elsewhere in the park

It should only be 'prime' for an awesome big ride which fits a theme! The whole of Metropolis needs a brand new theme and sort out!

[Nathan]

Zamperla are generally okay for flat rides for a park like Flamingo Land, but large scale coasters are a massive no-go.

After three years of relatively small investments, I am hoping the next major attraction to arrive is of a high quality.

I would like to see the Primeval theme taken on through maybe a dark ride where driving school is something dark. A bit more Adult than some of the recent addictions to the park.

Not Long To The End Of Season Only 6 Weeks Left. No More Rumours Yet Going Later Today I Will Try & Find Out More Info On What Is Happening Over Closed Season.

[Sean]

^Was it just the news of 2 White Rhinos?

[Jonesy85]

Yeah I think so lol not the news we were all after

[Bradley2012]

who agrees they should have kept the corkscrew?

[Sir Coastalot]

Tbh when I visited I didn't notice it was gone! I know it wasen't there but I didn't miss it and I used to find it ok. Although if this god aweful Volare turns up I'd rathe have Corkscrew!
