That's a major bummer Matt. I've now been on both Freeze coasters multiple times and while I totally love them and rank them near the top, I still felt Batman chiller was even better. There is something about the sheer mass and power of a Premier launch coaster vs the Intamin cable launch.

I guess my only premier launchers are FOF at KI, and 2 Backlots.

Well, I guess we can only hope that you and Matt and the rest of us get another chance at Chiller :). In the meantime, get out to SFOT and St.Louis before Six Flags does something crazy again lol

Maybe they will move a freeze closer to me. Both places are on my radar but not immediate. The first time I go to Holiday World without the family I plan on doing SFStl. Texas was way off my radar until the new TG rolled in.

Give or take, yup.  Just fly into St Louis for Holiwood Nights.  That worked out really well.

I actually really enjoyed our trip to SFStl.
The park was actually quite nice.
My Holiday Nights trip might be to Texas, unless I hear some good news about the Voyage.

Anytime I was at the park and the Chiller was open, only the Robin side was open =/
I am totally down to do SFStls this year. I think it is my favorite  Six Flags park that I have been to yet.

I really just want to chill out all weekend at Holiday World next year. No side trips. No rush. Just enjoy the campground, my coaster companions and the park for three days. Fun and relaxing. :)

I'm hoping to hit 130 this year for my coaster count. Gonna push hard for a Knoebel's trip and quite a few other new parks. Hell I could probably get a co-op job with GCI in the next few years!!! So much to do in the next few years.

I don't mean slow. I'm just taking it at an easier pace wherever I go and having a lot more fun that way.

That's what I did last year, it was great. No rush to get into the park for anything, just a leisurely pace, and sun burn boy.


Yeah, that sucks about Chiller...I hate to see it like that. Hey, so we should get a group picture or something ok. I'll call you later!

Maybe Burke buys Chiller to put in at Clementon? That would be an awesome addition!

That would rock but being that they had neighbor complaints about the noise back when the Jack Rabbit was still running, I'd say Chiller is out of the question lol

Fill it with sand! LOL.

I mean it is already dismantled so I feel it would be easy to do that during reconstruction! Hows the power grid down there Wade? Dual Launches?

In the news today, Clementon Park's new dual launching roller coaster caused severe brown-outs to most of Camden County because of the amount of strain placed on the grid. Expect these problems to persist throughout the year.

Haha no amount of sand will keep a premier launch quiet. I guess it would help a bit so sure, fill it with sand. I'll even help put the sand in the supports lol
