Not only is SFNE close but so is Quassy which added the SBF version of hte ride before TGE and SFNE got the chance version.

They should try and get a ride that is not in the 2 closssest parks.

I still think that the Gerstlauer Sky Fly would be a great option.  Six Flags won’t work with Gerstlauer so they won’t have to worry about competing.

Double post sorry, but now that I mention it, I think LC should take up Gerstlauer for their next coaster too.  Mondial too.  If they go after companies SF would work with they’ve automatically got a one up on them.

A sky Flyer would be a very unique ride for not the emediat compitition but the region as a whole. I think it woudl be a godo move for them to have a thrilling flat no one else has.

Yeah and it’s low capacity but I don’t think that’ll be a problem for LC, which is another one up on SFNE, even though other parks in the area are kinda small too.

This is one of those parks that benefits more from a small scale addition than a large one, because SFNE can’t compete with that.  I see this place as prime a Eurofighter or Raptor location.

Keep in mind you have a euro fighter at Canobie. so it wouldn't be as unique of an addition as a Raptor would be.

LC's attendance is a bit lower. we all know SFNE gets the highest attendance. arguably Canboie is likely the number 2 with LC in 3rd. In turn, they can handle a lower capacity addition better.

Now, capacity wise they can look at the Sky Roller over the Sky Fly. the tower with the 30 seat option gets 480-720pph. an average fo 650 an hour is not terible at LC. and the tower woud fit easily into the park.

Looking at it strictly from a ride standpoint, I think the Sky Fly looks way more fun and might be just a better thrilling option for the park.

The Pandi Cycborg type ride wouldn't do them much good with SFNE and Local Quassy having one.  I think the Sky fly or the tower Sky Coaster would be good. I'd lean towards the coaster/tower one. There is no kiddie one there is a smaller flat ride version but its not a kiddie ride.

The unicoaster is interesting but not sure how well it wodl fit and hard to tell how well it woudl perform.

Unicoasters are weird.  One hand I see them being super successful and on other I see them as the black sheep of the park

Venus Vortex to open in 2021! Parts are on site, but due to construction stoppage, it will be ready to go in 2021!

Disappointing but not that unexpected. In order to install it, they have to rework the area around the wave pool not to mention the equioment they will need in the area to install it.  So better to get what area you can open. That and they want to give it a whole season to operate.
