| | | Well this will cost 7 tickets and Great White (the CCI) and The Great Nor'Easter (SLC) cost 8 ticets so there is a chance it could be a coaster. But a speedy compact one. One that won't be too expensive or they would not be charging less than the other coasters. |

| | ^^ I agree. Sounds almost like a drop tower. Do they have one already at MP? Also Anyone that has been there, how long does it take to do all the piers?
Are they all together or do you have to catch the trams inbetween?
I saw part of it on a TV special, but they didn't give enough depth.
Final question, how far of a drive is this from Astro Land on Coney Island? I'm wanting to do a NE trip at some point and just want an idea of what I'm looking at. Thanks

| | | To walk all three piers would take a while...its a pretty big boardwalk. It could very well be a drop tower rider maybe an s&s twin towe like dominator at dorney. Atmosfear doesn't sound like a coaster but then it could be anyway.

| | | you can walk from pier to pier but there is a tram. for those of you familiar with the board walk the tram goe "watch the tram car please, watch the tram car please". it is hard to miss the tram.

| | | It is a drop tower. I heard somewhere but I can't remember. The name is awesome and it describes it very well. It would be a perfect ride and they don't take up any space.

Trams make it easier. Coney Island is in Brooklyn, not LI. It's a combination of Russian and Oriental area of Brooklyn. Fun though, and a nice bech with alot of sand, so that alot of people can be there. |

| | | Ok now that there is a big possibility that its going to be some type of launch tower, drop tower, what kind do you think its going to be.

| | | Coney Island is pretty legnthy by subway from most party of the 5 boroughs. It's still Brooklyn, Kings county, not a county of LI that isn't one of the 5 boroughs.
Back to topic, I think it'll be a double shot, like the one in Keansburg. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
