News: Knoebel's adds new attractions for 2006

Posted at 12:23 AM EDT (0423 GMT)

Apr. 27th, 2006 -- Knoebel's Amusement Resort is adding new attraction for the upcoming season. The Flying Turns roller coaster is under construction and some other new rides are among the park's new lineup.

Knoebel's is hoping to open the Flying Turns wooden bobsled coaster sometime this season. However, the fact that none of these rides have been built in the modern era will mean the ride will take time to build.

Also new to the park this year is a 3D Theater that will rotate movies on certain days. The park has also added a game called "the Dog Pounder". Also, the park is marketing "The Looper" as a new ride since it opened so late last season.

Knoebel's opens for the season on Saturday, April 29th.

That's very ambitious. If they have to hold The Flying Turns over for 2007 I'm not going to hold it against them. I may or may not break the 200 mark this season. It could be that coaster or Leap the Dips I'll make #200.

Well, I would love to see them open the Flying Turns this season, it has a long way to go, and I think an 07 opening would be cool too. I won't get to ride it anytime soon of it's in 07 though. The theatre is a good idea too. They have TONS of rides at Knoebel's right now. Diversity is very good.

Seems like a great line up to a great park that I won't see until deep into the future (if even then)
