Sdc & Cc 2006

The parks have finally spoken...
SDC is getting 10 rides from Zamperla as part of the new section The Grand Exposition

CC is adding three new shows and a new attraction.

White Water has not announced it they are adding anything for next season as of yet, but it looks like it will be another exciting season of fun at HFEC parks this coming year.

Ok, so looking at their announcement, SDC is getting:
a pirate ship
a Disk'O
a wave swinger
tea cups
a "regatta" ride
a family/ kiddie coaster
and something that looks a bit like a kangaroo jumping ride.

Looks like a nice little mix of rides there, and several that I'm sure will be big hits.

For CC, I'm not sure I would call the Lego activity center a new "attraction" per se, but more a nice building center where mom and dad can take a break while the kids play a bit. The shows look interesting. We really liked the VeggieTales show that was at SDC last year, so it's nice to see that coming back to another park.

Looks a lot like what Dollywood got this year. Except for the pirate ship. I can't believe they are still making those!

Here's the press release.

The signage looks just like Dollywood's this year. http://www.midwestinfoguide.com/new/expo/2.jpg

Man this park is in such dire need of flats, too bad these ones aren't that good. Maybe the other two will be great flats.

DHollon · #8 11-09-2005, 12:04 AM

Um, these are great flat rides and they will be much appreciated. The other two you are speaking of are kiddie rides.

I myself wouldnt call a disko great as I hated the one I rode (and I rode it more then once) But it will be great for the park as they dont have ANY flats! SDC was one of the best new for me parks i went to in 2005 and now with this big add on I really want to go back. Maybe in 07... Or when they get that woodie

After my recent visit I felt the same that the park was in need of some flat rides. Nice collection of artwork DHOLLON

Thanks. We actually had received them awhile ago, but had to wait for the official announcement to put them online.

Whats the difference between a disk-o and a mega disk-o?

These aren't my ideal "Spin-and-Puke" flats is what I meant. I was hoping they would get a frisbee, tops spin, enterprise, chaos, or something else like that. These are better than nothing though.

DHollon · #13 11-10-2005, 03:37 PM

Well considering this is a ZAMPERLA ride package, I'm not sure why you are so surprised.

Frisbee (Huss/Chance) TopSpin (Huss) Chaos (Chance)

From what I understand, the Mega Disk-O is a larger version and seats more people.

**Wes** · #14 11-10-2005, 04:07 PM

I disagree with people that are saying disk-o's aren't fun.

The one at dollywood was a lot of fun to me. But like coasters, everyone has their opinion.

And I get to ride it (hopefully) again next Sat

DHollon · #15 11-10-2005, 04:17 PM

Disk-Os are "Awkward" to ride and I think that is where a lot people get the notion that they are not "fun."
