Question Roller Soaker

Anyone have any idea when Hershey is getting track for their new coaster. I was just there this weekend and i didn't see any track. I saw one footer in the ground. I'm supprised they didn't get their track yet. unless they did and we just don't see it?

The track for Roller Soaker is sitting along the side of the employee parking lot.

that's probably why i didn't see it. too bad. I would have taken some pics i didn't see much at the construction site. and i couldn't get down there while in the park. My dad drove me around the back but i didn't see any track. That section of the park is closed during the day now. I would have seen track had i had more time to look. I was only there for about 24 hours.

i agree that the coaster wont be very fun, it'll prob be just like pterydon flyers, which in a word: blew. oh well, i would just rather see them save some money and build another woody. i like woodies.

I don't really care. i was just wondering. i went to the construction site and i didn't see anything but one footer. I don't really care how fun it is. and who knows, it might be at least a little fun.

Hey, I think this ride will be the next best thing in wate rides. And this type of coaster doesn't take up alot of room. I think that this ride will be alot of fun. but what about the people who have been on the Super Saturator at PCW, what do they think of this ride?

These aren't fun! Have you ridden one? I havn't but these look like a lot of fun. So have you, I would like to know? It may not be fast and have inversions but there is something about having water guns on the actual coaster car that seems very appealing to me.

This coaster looks really cool, and I would love to ride it. And, it looks VERY fun. It does seem like a good idea though, to have a smaller but fun coaster/water ride. It looks cool.

Im going to try to ride it this summer. This looks like an Xcellent ride because of the combination of adrenaline and water adds to the excitement.

Thumbs up

Coasters like the Roller Soaker may not be the most thrilling rides, but they are fun. Personally, I like hitting people with water guns as you fly by.
