I think a Vekoma flying coaster like F.L.Y. Would be perfect for universal or Disney. We already saw how well Phantasialand can theme that model. I would love to see Disney or Universal take their own spin on it.
I got three options: -Instead of a pod racing coaster, what if it was a coaster that was based around flying an X-Wing? -What if Disney did a coaster themed to emperors new groove (I’m saying they could do that just to have a drop track or other similar element themed to “pull the lever Kronk, WRONG LEVER” line) -What if Universal built a Back to the Future roller coaster, which takes riders up to 88mph to simulate the time travel speed?
Fun fact: The BTTF ride that was the simulator was going to be a roller coaster but the idea was put in the trash can due to the creative personnel having feelings about how the coaster would be too fast to tell a story.
I’ve been saying a speeder bike coaster through the Endor redwood forest would be incredible since Batu opened. But like a speeder bike built as a wing coaster
That’s why I love Florida, there’s always loads of new rides every year but I love a themed coaster so more of those! Mummy,gringots,hagrids,velocicoaster!
Living within 3.5 hours of Cedar Point and Kings Island, Sarah's *Ohio enthusiasts* comment hit me at my core. Good you're feeling our reaction 1000 miles away, though! 100% agree SeaWorld Orlando should get a wood coaster. Always felt they need a ride in the Antarctica section themed to the Shackleton expedition, and a GCI hybrid woodie is perfect for that. I'd also love a Mack XSC there replacing Journey to Atlantis - that'd be a fantastic theme for it. Could see a family wing coaster at Legoland, but a thrilling version at IoA in the rest of Lost Continent would be incredible. Agree with the Fun Spots getting a mini Raptor and 4-D Free Spin, but either park could get an Axis. (Or Legoland could get one themed to Bionicle!) Would be great if EPCOT and Animal Kingdom could get new coasters. A Vekoma flyer would be fantastic next to the...Germany pavilion. But a tilt coaster would only make sense within an Indiana Jones-esque theme. Maybe a US version of Raging Spirits next to Dinosaur? Oh well - pretending to own all the parks is half the fun anyway.
As an Ohioan, I've never felt we would be considered the "theme park capital" or anything of the sort. That's clearly central florida. If anything, Ohio has the best "collection of rollercoasters within 2 parks in the same state."
As an Ohioan, we can't claim that we are a theme park capitol. We have the best parks in CP and KI, but we don't have the climate to have more park chains interested in building here. We would have still had Geauga Lake if six Flags didn't screw it up. You just can't build a mega park like that in the area it was in. Maybe something like that would have worked out just outside of Columbus, but not in Aurora. I miss Geauga Lake. 25 mins down the road from me. Now I'm at least an hour and a half away from CP, or 4 hours to KI.
No other state can really compete with FL as the theme park capitol. CA probably comes the closest. But with BGT, legoland, and all the orlando parks all within less than 2 hours of each other, FL is the mecca of theme parks. Plus with the tropical climate, parks are open year round.
Busch Gardens Tampa is my home park, so if they ever announce a giga coaster, I'm going to lose my mind! The closest giga to me currently would be Fury 325 which is like a 9 to 10 hour drive. But it'd be so cool to have a giga coaster only an hour drive away.
I have to agree, Galaxy's Edge needs a coaster, AND it's the perfect IP to use for a thrill or family thrill coaster. My wishlist for this is a multiple-launch S&S axis that stays low to the ground, themed to flying through Beggar's Canyon, whether it's podracing or in a T-16 skyhopper or whatever. Doesn't need to actually invert, they could just as easily use the ride's unique design to have the track itself flip from wall to wall to make each corner into a near miss element while keeping the seats upright. So that actually checks two of your boxes.
Guys, I have a poll-like question for y'all: A very rich businessman from Brazil, called Alexandre Costa, is planning to invest around 2 Billion Brazilian Reais (391 Million Dollars) or more in a Theme Park to be opened in 2026 or 27, and for sure will try to bring a major coaster to the country. As he is the owner of the country's largest chocolate franchise (over 3000 stores, expanding to US now), he is inspired by Hershey Park, and although he doesn't have the budget in U$D to build something like it, he will still try to accomplish something similar. In the hypothetical situation where he would be willing to spend up to 40 million U$D in a nice coaster, which model would you guys like to see? Brazil's has already been home to the Colossus' prototype, and held the record for most inversions until that very same coaster came and took it in 2002 adding 2 more heartline rolls to it, basically cloning Makaya's layout, besides hosting the first Launched/Shuttle coaster Schwarzkopf built (former King Kobra, nowadays called Katapul), so I think it's safe to say that the country deserves a major coaster and this makes me wonder what you enthusiasts from up there would expect to see in a park which the objective is to bring tourists from abroad. Please use your imagination, just try to stick to the 40 Million U$D price tag. Ps: the park will be located near São Paulo, the biggest city in the Americas, so safety won't be much of a concern. Consider it not so different from, let's say, Ohio (I made the calculations and in 2022 the murder rate was basically equal in both states).
No one talks about the space warp model from vekoma (formula for example). A bigger Formula at small parks like a FunSpot would work insanely well IMO.
If epic universe does end up with a middle earth expansion, a vekoma fly or b&m wing would fit in like a champion there. Would love to see a Mount Doom KUKA arm dark ride there as well
Since the park is basically themed to different types of literature, imagine if they do an Anime/Manga area in that park given it’s growing popularity in America? I feel as if it’s where the Xtreme Spinner would fit the best!
I'd like to see one of those interesting custom wing coaster layouts head to Busch Gardens or SeaWorld. SeaWorld could build a wing coaster that makes low passes at the water and give it a seagull or whale theme, and Busch Gardens could do something bird or Safari related - would be interesting.
My pipedream coaster for my home state is a heavily themed S&S 4D coaster that rivals (or even copies) Eejanaika. I'd wanna see it in either Epic Universe or Islands in the Lost Continent section. It would bring a tear to my eye.
one thing that occurred to me after watching your Arie Force one video is that if Fun Spot is working with RMC on more than just Arie Force, it would obviously open the RMC Raptor for the Orlando park (because they don't have a coaster with an inversion) but also, and keep in mind this is AFTER they fully retrack Mine Blower (it needs it bad), potentially an RMC Family I-Box for Kissimmee, as I think it would work well. Either way, good vid!
A wing coaster would've been perfect for "How to Train Your Dragon." Like Dollywood has the eagles in the middle, that would have been the perfect use for Toothless or the other Dragon characters. Add the awesome music, near-misses everywhere (icebergs, mountains and whatnot), and it would've been epic (but still somewhat family-oriented). What were they thinking?
If Icon park can find the means and space to build a coaster, a Vekoma Tilt Coster would be a perfect fit. It fits in well with their existing rides and would catch everyone’s attention on I-Drive!
There actually is a Star Wars bike themed coaster in the works for Disney… just not for WDW :/ Disneyland Paris has the plans, it just needs the green light- which I’m hearing is surprisingly a good possibility
Wohoo. That would be awesome because they failed to build a Galaxys Edge with Rise of the resistance there. Are they going to announce it next weekend at the Star Wars Celebration in London?😉
When you started talking about the mack extreme spinner I thought you were gonna go Legoland. I feel like they could afford it, they have the space plus they desperately need to do something to try to not get lost in shuffle. I also think a tilt would fit in perfectly at Sea World. They've already built one in their chain and I think it would actually take up less space then a GCI wooden coaster
Tbh Rip Ride Rockit is one of my favorite coasters because of the song-picking alone. I was devastated when I heard yall talking about taking it out, but then the rest of the plan was said and I think it’s a great idea! Even tho I love RRR the layout isn’t anything special and I am still yet to ride a Gerstlauer Infinity, plus it will be a great fit at Universal. And if you can still pick your songs, then I think this new ride has the chance to be better than the old one! Also a giga at BGT would be perfect!!
Mack Extreme Spinning at Diagon Alley would be an amazing addition and I would love a Star Wars coaster too but, I still have no idea what it could or should be
I think a lot of these picks are actually super reasonable. A 4D free spin and a raptor are no-brainers for the Fun Spot Parks. I could totally see a giga at BGT, a big woodie at SWO, and a unique Star Wars coaster at Hollywood Studios. The other picks are a little less likely, but I’d love to see a themed wing coaster at Epic Universe, that would be so sick.
I feel like a family B&M wing could work well at Animal Kingdom, especially if it goes where Primeval Whirl used to be and if it’s themed to pterodactyls
Orlando needs a Six Flags park so I can use my membership there. Also, nice work Jeremie on the Legoland Wing Coaster. Now we just need to see some T-Express footage from Adam the Tourist.
When i went to Florida in 1995 there was space mountain, thunder railroad, python, scorpion, kumba but i can't think of a single coaster other than these... Compare that too today!!! I so need to go back
Considering the successful history that Universal has with Intamin, Universal Orlando should get the new generation of Intamin Vertical Launch Coaster. That would be a lot of fun to do, as well as incorporating onboard audio where you can pick your own song.
My main arguments here would be: Needing a Giga ANYWHERE: It's not like it's such a different experience than a Mega. A scary coaster to replace Rip Up Your Crotchit: This coaster is officially now part of the Illumination Avenue area so it REALLY needs to be a family coaster. Replace that wasted open space with a Super Silly Fun Land, give us some flat rides and theme this up, getting it the H out of New York. But yes, Extreme Spinner NEEDS to go somewhere! NOW! USF also needs some sort of flume coaster.
I think the Giga should go to Peppa Pig Theme Park. I'm sure the kids would love it. ;) But seriously, I would love to see a family rollercoaster in Seuss Landing themed to Mount Crumpit. Make is something like the Matterhorn bobsleds in California with the story of How the Grinch Stole Christmas through the ride.
I’m going to combine two of your ideas: put a Mack Extreme Spinner at Universal Studios Florida to replace Hollywood Rip Ride Rocket! You could even do a vertical drop out of the station like Time Traveler and have multiple launches and inversions! It would look amazing at the front of the park and could be well-themed!
The thumbnail coaster would be amazing…imagine HS gets something like Hagrid’s but it’s a speeder bike theme flying through the forest of Endor…one could dream.
I will die on a hill to save Muppetvision 3D, but at the same time, I will always say that the logical concept for a coaster expansion to Galaxy Edge at Disney Hollywood Studios is a S&S Axis coaster themed to pod racing. Pod Racing being the Outer Rim version of Nascar. Before the Vekoma crowd walks in to tell me that Disney only works with Vekoma which isn't true, Sensei owns both Vekoma and S&S, so it's possibly that Disney once it gets House in order might start to look at expanding with a Axis Coaster. As for a Tilt Coaster, Disney could always work with Vekoma to make an Indiana Jones Tilt Coaster that starts as kind of a mind train with a launch until it gets to a ricket bridge like area to do a Tilt section. It would also be kind of a response to the Donkey Kong Coaster at Epic Universe. However, I'd prefer letting COTAland keep the Tilt Coaster unique in North America for at the least five years.
If they’re going to turn that whole area within Star Tours/Galaxy’s Edge into a Lucasfilm area with a new entrance to a new Indie area, then they could possibly relocate Muppets Courtyard. The park is in serious need of more rides and things to do as well as a larger footprint due to how of all the WDW parks, it’s the worst offender of the overcrowding issue.
I think the extreme spinner should go to Universal Studios. They have the budget, they have enough space, and it would be an amazing neighbor as a top coaster to go with Velocicoaster next door.
I mean, Orlando already has plenty. Velocicoaster, hagrids, tron, mako, rock n roller coaster, expedition Everest, among many more. That’s a strong lineup already IMO
oh it absolutely is already a strong line up! But the reality is that these parks are so popular, they're going to continue to expand! That's why we made this video- we wanted to speculate on what their options could be for the future!
I want Rip Ride Rocket to be replaced with a Vekoma Tilt model or if Vekoma is up to it ,they can redevelop their Elevator Tilt Prototype that never saw the light of day. Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 has this prototype if you would like to see it in motion. It’s a elevator lift system that lifts the coaster train into 90 degree angle instead of using the chain lift into the tilt track.
So, a tilt coaster... you could actually make it a bit of a hybrid coaster/dark ride, especially if you also give it a launch so you can use a Time Traveler-like layout. Start it off with a themed dark ride section that leads onto the tilt section. Make the tilt section have a cinematic sequence, like you're on a bridge or pier and it starts to break and tilt over. Have the drop go through a tunnel as well, so that you can add effects to it like you're falling into some sort of abyss.
I think a MACK Extreme Spinner could work at Universal Studios Florida but you'd have to find a good spot. It could work as a replacement for Hollywood RRR or be placed elsewhere. But the thing that I think would work best about it is that you could make it an indoor coaster. USF likes to use big city building facades to hide its show buildings and you could definitely build a 100-120 foot large scale show building and put a MACK Extreme Spinner in there. You could theme it to a random Universal IP or just to some generic aspect of Hollywood and the film industry. My point is that they could make it look like a series of skyscrapers in New York, LA or San Francisco and then just have some kind of darkened ride experience with a bit of theming along the way. It wouldn't need to be too extensive because you'd already struggle to fixate on any one object so just some lighting effects, fog and inexpensive set pieces would be more than enough.
I actually work at Busch Gardens and I don't think we will get a giga. If you were to replace it in Kumba's area, the ground is too soft to support a giga and its footers. Plans were actually made to remove Kumba for another coaster. We never knew what it was, but the plans were eventually scrapped. I don't see any other room in the park area for a giga, but I believe a RMC Raptor would be the best coaster for this park at the moment. Also, I wouldn't mind a GCI there either.
I would actually give the GCI woodie to BGT over a Mack Extreme Spinner. They already have a spinner and a wooden coaster is something they need. Something similar to a lion themed (think Ghost and the Darkness) GCI would fit in great in the Serengeti area.
BGT already tried a GCI woodie and it didn't work out so well for them, I don't see them trying another wooden coaster anytime soon (but I would love to be proven wrong...assuming it can be maintained well)
@CoasterStudios True, but like Vekoma, GCI is a significantly more improved brand today than when they made Gwazi. Plus, BG would give GCI another go with much better success at Williamsburg. InvadR's not the most intense GCI, but it's still fun.
I think SeaWorld could add a wing coaster in their key west section and theme it to flamingos! Almost like you’re riding on a flamingo’s wing or something. And the track could be pink with like super light pink supports. That’d be so cool
I feel like the axis coaster could work at either Epcot or animal kingdom with a Tangled theme. The cars don't necessarily have to flip riders, but like a journey through the forest with axis cars would be cool (Disney's take on Hagrids).
You know, that rumored Fast and Furious coaster coming to Hollywood could be a cool replacement of Rip Ride Rockit. Then that would give them the perfect excuse to tear down the insultingly bad Supercharged attraction!
I thought an extreme spinner at epic universe would have been really cool. Also Rip Ride Rockit is sick! Doesn't deserve the hate nice airtime pops into the break runs and gives you a chance to vibe to the music
That thumbnail seems like a great idea but then again it would be a copy of hagrids. If hagrids wasn’t a thing then a low to the ground family launch themed to endor would be amazing.
Going to be a long comment but hear me out! A new theme park in Lakeland halfway between Orlando and Tampa Warner Bros Park featuring the following line up: 1) Gerstlauer Infintiy indoor and themed to Rick and Morty and breaking The Smiler and TMNT records of inversions and steepest drop. 2) Gravity Group Woodie themed to Animaniacs 3) Mack Hyper like Project Exodus themed to The Joker 4) Taron Clone with Motorbike cars and an inversion themed to Terminator 5) Vekoma F.L.Y. coaster themed to Captain Planet 6)Dark Ride themed to Bettlejuice 7) Shooting dark ride themed to Gremlins 8)Dark Boat Ride themed to Willy Wonka (1971) 9)Road Runner Vs Wilie Coyote Intamin Flume Coaster 10)Toutatis clone themed to Mad Max Fury Road Disney gets the Vekoma Lech clone themed to The Mandalorian and following Grogu/Djarin around the planet of Mandalore. SWO Gets a B&M Wing coaster painted Pink and themed to Flamingos also a B&M Giga to out do Fury BGT Gets an Intamin Giga near the Screamin Swing and a GCI version of Crystal Beach Cyclone in the Jungala area IOA gets S&S Axis not sure of the theme they would choose or where to put it. IOA gets a more extreme Surf Coaster or RMC Raptor themed to Silver Surfer comic. USF gets a Mack Extreme Spinner to replace RRR theme it to BTTF remove or reuse Blue Man Group/Nickelodeon Studios buildings.
I'm actually glad you guys made a video like this because a while ago I had a crazy idea. Now what if Epic Universal or if not Islands of adventure made the rumored Zelda land at one of their Park's and one of the lands anchored attractions would be a Mack extreme spinning coaster and the ride would go through multiple elements never seen before including and show scenes. Now there's two ways they can do this. The one at Islands could replace the Lost Continent by demolishing Poseidon's fury KEEP MYTHOS BUT retheme it with the same menu of course and Add a super awesome immersive dark Ride themed to one of the Zelda games. Now the second option is to wait until epic universe is open and then they could use one of the expansion pads as the same ideas the last. But this time they would have more room to work with.
I agree with a lot of your ideas. I live in Orlando but grew up going to Cedar Point and Kings Island. Would love to see Busch get a Giga! I disagree with your opinion on Rip Ride Rocket. It is so unique and fun! Would like them to bring it back to it’s original glory it’s gotten a little rough it used to be super smooth. Needs the hulk treatment 😉😊 Seaworld is going hard with adding coasters. I think they have more property to expand so they will be the one to watch IMO 😊
I think a Mack extreme spinner would be a perfect replacement for Rip Ride Rocket and would probably start to put the studios park on par with Epic Universe and Islands of Adventure
Animal Kingdom really needs a roller coaster to help bring life to that park again. I think a wing coaster (There is non is florida) themed to riding a Banshee through Pandora. Think it would be cool to have a simulator and the real thing at the same park
HEAR ME OUT!!! New expansion for Galaxy's Edge next to smuggler's run. The new area would feature a coaster winding all around the land. The coaster would be a Mandalorian Vekoma F.L.Y. coaster that could or coundn't include inversions. I've been wanting this for a long time now.
What about a launched giga b&m wing coaster with a large layout at Busch gardens....they do have the land and have to do something with kumba ?? Thoughts
Personally I always loved the idea of a launched wing coaster going to disney though I could see why that could be an issue with the height requirement
if I would do this for my countey, the netherlands (limiting myself to 1 coaster per park) duinrell: a family gravity group through those woods slagharen: a vekoma stc drievliet: small scale intamin mega coaster that goes around the whole park hellendoorn: a vekoma chainlift coaster or really any modern thrill ride Toverland: a regular multilooper like a floorless efteling: a intamin multidimensional coaster walibi holland: either a b&m wing or a gci woodie
I've heard that the Florida climate is HORRIBLE for wood coasters. A maintanence nightmare! But I would suggest any further explanation from ElToroRyan.
Busch Gardens Tampa : B&M Giga Launched B&M Wing coaster that stays low to the ground the entire time, invest in theming and put it in the Jungle section and theme it to a snake. Use cool effects and make it go into trenches and utilize near-misses with the ground. Fun Spot Kissimmee : S&S axis, something like Dragon Slayer Fun Spot America : Stunt Pilot clone Seaworld Orlando : Gerstlauer family coaster ( Something like Wakala ) Universal Studios : Mack hyper w/ attached spinning car like on Icon. Zierer / Intamin vertical launch coaster with onboard audio. New park Something in Jacksonville or southern Florida to provide a full - day cheaper alternative to the larger parks, like a Six Flags park. The roller coaster lineup would include : Vekoma Giant Inverted Boomerang RMC similar to Storm Chaser Zierer Large Tivoli Zamperla family coaster w/ log flume, a clone of the new coaster going to Iowa’s Adventureland. Chance Hyper Indoor custom Maurer Spinner Vekoma tilt coaster S&S family invert Ultra Twister w/ dive loop knockoff ( sounds crazy but I think S&S / Togo / Taziker Coasters could pull it off.
I think if they ever do a Starwars rollercoaster they should do a fly type ride but theme it to the mandolorian like your flying with a jet pack on your back . Or a launch coaster with speeder bike trains
There are rumors floating around of an InvadR style GCI going into Jungala at BGT. I would LOVE a Maximus style Wing Coaster at Legoland Florida. Not counting Peppa Pig Land, they have not gotten a new roller coaster since opening day almost 12 years ago.
They aren’t gonna build another wooden roller in a tropical climate like Florida. They rot out and the wood warps. Gwazi got a little more then 10 years before they started shutting elements down in 2011. Mine blower was built in 2017 and is one of the roughest wooden coasters.
@@tylerkriesel8590 White Lightning is still going strong, even the sections that aren't Titan Track. The rumors I've been seeing are unsubstantiated, so I definitely take it with a grain of salt, but I think there's been enough lessons learned with wood coasters in Florida climates and technology updated to where it's at the very least feasible.
I think a Vekoma flying coaster like F.L.Y. Would be perfect for universal or Disney. We already saw how well Phantasialand can theme that model. I would love to see Disney or Universal take their own spin on it.
that would be awesome!
They'd probably need a higher-capacity ride. A B&M Flyer would do the trick.
I was holding out so much hope that the HTTYD coaster at Epic Universe was going to be a Vekoma Flying Coaster
and disney loves vekoma. this could be an amazing expansion to pandora, they way they could theme that to flying in the world of avatar. insane
This.Needs.To.Happen.
I got three options:
-Instead of a pod racing coaster, what if it was a coaster that was based around flying an X-Wing?
-What if Disney did a coaster themed to emperors new groove (I’m saying they could do that just to have a drop track or other similar element themed to “pull the lever Kronk, WRONG LEVER” line)

Fun fact: The BTTF ride that was the simulator was going to be a roller coaster but the idea was put in the trash can due to the creative personnel having feelings about how the coaster would be too fast to tell a story.
Oh oh oh! What about a FLYING coaster themed to an X wing!!! It's the right shape!!!
I like the back to the future suggsestion
I’ve been saying a speeder bike coaster through the Endor redwood forest would be incredible since Batu opened. But like a speeder bike built as a wing coaster
@@jeffreysmith5671 I wonder if the creative design team nowadays would be open to trying that
That’s why I love Florida, there’s always loads of new rides every year but I love a themed coaster so more of those! Mummy,gringots,hagrids,velocicoaster!
Don't skip out on Silver Dollar City this year guys! It's the last year for fire in the hole and the train is back up and running.
Yes, because silver dollar city is in Orlando
Living within 3.5 hours of Cedar Point and Kings Island, Sarah's *Ohio enthusiasts* comment hit me at my core. Good you're feeling our reaction 1000 miles away, though!

Indoor tilt coaster would be great for a Journey to the center of the earth theme
omg yes.
Busch Gardens Tampa is my home park, so if they ever announce a giga coaster, I'm going to lose my mind! The closest giga to me currently would be Fury 325 which is like a 9 to 10 hour drive. But it'd be so cool to have a giga coaster only an hour drive away.
That might be nice fit
BGT is also my home park since I moved to Tampa in 2018 and a giga near kumba and Congo river rapids would be amazing.
I have to agree, Galaxy's Edge needs a coaster, AND it's the perfect IP to use for a thrill or family thrill coaster. My wishlist for this is a multiple-launch S&S axis that stays low to the ground, themed to flying through Beggar's Canyon, whether it's podracing or in a T-16 skyhopper or whatever. Doesn't need to actually invert, they could just as easily use the ride's unique design to have the track itself flip from wall to wall to make each corner into a near miss element while keeping the seats upright. So that actually checks two of your boxes.
Guys, I have a poll-like question for y'all:
A very rich businessman from Brazil, called Alexandre Costa, is planning to invest around 2 Billion Brazilian Reais (391 Million Dollars) or more in a Theme Park to be opened in 2026 or 27, and for sure will try to bring a major coaster to the country.

If epic universe does end up with a middle earth expansion, a vekoma fly or b&m wing would fit in like a champion there. Would love to see a Mount Doom KUKA arm dark ride there as well
I think the Mack extreme spinners scream Islands of Adventure, they’d be such a nice fit there
A perfect place for it would be in Toon Lagoon. Tear down that old, amphitheater that hasn't been used in decades and place the coaster there.
Since the park is basically themed to different types of literature, imagine if they do an Anime/Manga area in that park given it’s growing popularity in America? I feel as if it’s where the Xtreme Spinner would fit the best!
I'd like to see one of those interesting custom wing coaster layouts head to Busch Gardens or SeaWorld. SeaWorld could build a wing coaster that makes low passes at the water and give it a seagull or whale theme, and Busch Gardens could do something bird or Safari related - would be interesting.
Those 2 parks have enough b&m loopers already compared to other styles of rides
My pipedream coaster for my home state is a heavily themed S&S 4D coaster that rivals (or even copies) Eejanaika. I'd wanna see it in either Epic Universe or Islands in the Lost Continent section. It would bring a tear to my eye.
its too intense for any of the Florida parks in my opinion.
one thing that occurred to me after watching your Arie Force one video is that if Fun Spot is working with RMC on more than just Arie Force, it would obviously open the RMC Raptor for the Orlando park (because they don't have a coaster with an inversion) but also, and keep in mind this is AFTER they fully retrack Mine Blower (it needs it bad), potentially an RMC Family I-Box for Kissimmee, as I think it would work well. Either way, good vid!
A RMC raptor would be a good fit at FunSpot if John Arie Jr. didn't dislike the single across seating found on raptors.
A wing coaster would've been perfect for "How to Train Your Dragon." Like Dollywood has the eagles in the middle, that would have been the perfect use for Toothless or the other Dragon characters. Add the awesome music, near-misses everywhere (icebergs, mountains and whatnot), and it would've been epic (but still somewhat family-oriented). What were they thinking?

Glad to say I live in Florida and would want all of these added
There actually is a Star Wars bike themed coaster in the works for Disney… just not for WDW :/
Disneyland Paris has the plans, it just needs the green light- which I’m hearing is surprisingly a good possibility
Wohoo. That would be awesome because they failed to build a Galaxys Edge with Rise of the resistance there.
Are they going to announce it next weekend at the Star Wars Celebration in London?😉
Huhhhhh?!!? Then Space Mountain needs to get rid of its star wars theming then
When you started talking about the mack extreme spinner I thought you were gonna go Legoland. I feel like they could afford it, they have the space plus they desperately need to do something to try to not get lost in shuffle. I also think a tilt would fit in perfectly at Sea World. They've already built one in their chain and I think it would actually take up less space then a GCI wooden coaster
Tbh Rip Ride Rockit is one of my favorite coasters because of the song-picking alone. I was devastated when I heard yall talking about taking it out, but then the rest of the plan was said and I think it’s a great idea! Even tho I love RRR the layout isn’t anything special and I am still yet to ride a Gerstlauer Infinity, plus it will be a great fit at Universal. And if you can still pick your songs, then I think this new ride has the chance to be better than the old one! Also a giga at BGT would be perfect!!
Rip ride needs a re track and an updated song list. We went in Feb and it nearly gave me a headache
Gerstlauers are too low-capacity for a park like Universal. I think they should get something like Voltron at Europa-Park instead.
Tbh I don’t even care what kind of coaster it is as long as it’s fun and it still has the song choices!
Mack Extreme Spinning at Diagon Alley would be an amazing addition and I would love a Star Wars coaster too but, I still have no idea what it could or should be
I think a lot of these picks are actually super reasonable. A 4D free spin and a raptor are no-brainers for the Fun Spot Parks. I could totally see a giga at BGT, a big woodie at SWO, and a unique Star Wars coaster at Hollywood Studios. The other picks are a little less likely, but I’d love to see a themed wing coaster at Epic Universe, that would be so sick.
honestly shocked they didn't pick a wing coaster for the How to Train Your Dragon Land at Epic Universe...seems like that would've been a slam dunk
S&S 4D Freespins are way too expensive for Fun Spot. They're almost as expensive as ArieForce One, but are nowhere near as good.
Spinner for epic universe
I feel like a family B&M wing could work well at Animal Kingdom, especially if it goes where Primeval Whirl used to be and if it’s themed to pterodactyls
Yeah, that park really has been neglected as far as rides are concerned.
or mayby even fun spot if buisness goes well because B&M is pretty expensive
They could turn that whole Dinoland area into South America while they’re at it!
Orlando needs a Six Flags park so I can use my membership there. Also, nice work Jeremie on the Legoland Wing Coaster. Now we just need to see some T-Express footage from Adam the Tourist.
Love the idea of a compact RMC Raptor at Fun Spot!
When i went to Florida in 1995 there was space mountain, thunder railroad, python, scorpion, kumba but i can't think of a single coaster other than these... Compare that too today!!! I so need to go back
First words out of my mouth was Giga at BG. Then Raptor at Fun Spot Orlando. Then those were the first 2 you listed. We think alike!
Hoping you suggest the Monsters Inc suspended door coaster. That scene from the movie SCREAMED Disney ride!
I always thought that too! I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet. 😮
As a native to Orlando, I appreciate this video and agree with everything
Another one id add even if its a bit of a stretch is an SFX coaster like Mission Ferrari. Imagine that but with a budget of a Universal or Disney
can’t wait for Goofy 345 at Hollywood Studios!!!
As well as Donald 465, Figment 580, and Mickey 620!
I mean to be fair there are rumors of RNRC being rethemed to Powerline from A Goofy Movie
4:25 just your explanation, I immediately thought “Hollywood rip ride rocket”
Considering the successful history that Universal has with Intamin, Universal Orlando should get the new generation of Intamin Vertical Launch Coaster. That would be a lot of fun to do, as well as incorporating onboard audio where you can pick your own song.
I think with a steel structure, GCI or GG can build another wooden coaster in Flordia that can handle the weather.
My main arguments here would be:
Needing a Giga ANYWHERE: It's not like it's such a different experience than a Mega.
A scary coaster to replace Rip Up Your Crotchit: This coaster is officially now part of the Illumination Avenue area so it REALLY needs to be a family coaster. Replace that wasted open space with a Super Silly Fun Land, give us some flat rides and theme this up, getting it the H out of New York.
But yes, Extreme Spinner NEEDS to go somewhere! NOW! USF also needs some sort of flume coaster.
Minions themed Slc to replace RRR
Just Imagine a vekoma flyer in galaxy’s edge🥵
I think the Giga should go to Peppa Pig Theme Park. I'm sure the kids would love it. ;)
But seriously, I would love to see a family rollercoaster in Seuss Landing themed to Mount Crumpit. Make is something like the Matterhorn bobsleds in California with the story of How the Grinch Stole Christmas through the ride.
I’m going to combine two of your ideas: put a Mack Extreme Spinner at Universal Studios Florida to replace Hollywood Rip Ride Rocket! You could even do a vertical drop out of the station like Time Traveler and have multiple launches and inversions! It would look amazing at the front of the park and could be well-themed!
The thumbnail coaster would be amazing…imagine HS gets something like Hagrid’s but it’s a speeder bike theme flying through the forest of Endor…one could dream.
I will die on a hill to save Muppetvision 3D, but at the same time, I will always say that the logical concept for a coaster expansion to Galaxy Edge at Disney Hollywood Studios is a S&S Axis coaster themed to pod racing. Pod Racing being the Outer Rim version of Nascar. Before the Vekoma crowd walks in to tell me that Disney only works with Vekoma which isn't true, Sensei owns both Vekoma and S&S, so it's possibly that Disney once it gets House in order might start to look at expanding with a Axis Coaster. As for a Tilt Coaster, Disney could always work with Vekoma to make an Indiana Jones Tilt Coaster that starts as kind of a mind train with a launch until it gets to a ricket bridge like area to do a Tilt section. It would also be kind of a response to the Donkey Kong Coaster at Epic Universe. However, I'd prefer letting COTAland keep the Tilt Coaster unique in North America for at the least five years.
If they’re going to turn that whole area within Star Tours/Galaxy’s Edge into a Lucasfilm area with a new entrance to a new Indie area, then they could possibly relocate Muppets Courtyard. The park is in serious need of more rides and things to do as well as a larger footprint due to how of all the WDW parks, it’s the worst offender of the overcrowding issue.
I think the extreme spinner should go to Universal Studios. They have the budget, they have enough space, and it would be an amazing neighbor as a top coaster to go with Velocicoaster next door.
I'd love a starwars coaster. Would wanna see a more intense launch coaster tho. Fast acceleration to simulate jumping to hyperspeed
I mean, Orlando already has plenty. Velocicoaster, hagrids, tron, mako, rock n roller coaster, expedition Everest, among many more. That’s a strong lineup already IMO
oh it absolutely is already a strong line up! But the reality is that these parks are so popular, they're going to continue to expand! That's why we made this video- we wanted to speculate on what their options could be for the future!
I want Rip Ride Rocket to be replaced with a Vekoma Tilt model or if Vekoma is up to it ,they can redevelop their Elevator Tilt Prototype that never saw the light of day. Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 has this prototype if you would like to see it in motion. It’s a elevator lift system that lifts the coaster train into 90 degree angle instead of using the chain lift into the tilt track.
I always heard that Florida has some kind of height restrictions for coasters.
So, a tilt coaster... you could actually make it a bit of a hybrid coaster/dark ride, especially if you also give it a launch so you can use a Time Traveler-like layout. Start it off with a themed dark ride section that leads onto the tilt section. Make the tilt section have a cinematic sequence, like you're on a bridge or pier and it starts to break and tilt over. Have the drop go through a tunnel as well, so that you can add effects to it like you're falling into some sort of abyss.
I think a MACK Extreme Spinner could work at Universal Studios Florida but you'd have to find a good spot. It could work as a replacement for Hollywood RRR or be placed elsewhere. But the thing that I think would work best about it is that you could make it an indoor coaster. USF likes to use big city building facades to hide its show buildings and you could definitely build a 100-120 foot large scale show building and put a MACK Extreme Spinner in there. You could theme it to a random Universal IP or just to some generic aspect of Hollywood and the film industry. My point is that they could make it look like a series of skyscrapers in New York, LA or San Francisco and then just have some kind of darkened ride experience with a bit of theming along the way. It wouldn't need to be too extensive because you'd already struggle to fixate on any one object so just some lighting effects, fog and inexpensive set pieces would be more than enough.
"But they don't even have a B&M hyper!"
Sheikra: Am I a joke to you????
I actually work at Busch Gardens and I don't think we will get a giga. If you were to replace it in Kumba's area, the ground is too soft to support a giga and its footers. Plans were actually made to remove Kumba for another coaster. We never knew what it was, but the plans were eventually scrapped. I don't see any other room in the park area for a giga, but I believe a RMC Raptor would be the best coaster for this park at the moment. Also, I wouldn't mind a GCI there either.
I would actually give the GCI woodie to BGT over a Mack Extreme Spinner. They already have a spinner and a wooden coaster is something they need. Something similar to a lion themed (think Ghost and the Darkness) GCI would fit in great in the Serengeti area.
BGT already tried a GCI woodie and it didn't work out so well for them, I don't see them trying another wooden coaster anytime soon (but I would love to be proven wrong...assuming it can be maintained well)
@CoasterStudios True, but like Vekoma, GCI is a significantly more improved brand today than when they made Gwazi. Plus, BG would give GCI another go with much better success at Williamsburg. InvadR's not the most intense GCI, but it's still fun.
I think SeaWorld could add a wing coaster in their key west section and theme it to flamingos! Almost like you’re riding on a flamingo’s wing or something. And the track could be pink with like super light pink supports. That’d be so cool
I feel like the axis coaster could work at either Epcot or animal kingdom with a Tangled theme. The cars don't necessarily have to flip riders, but like a journey through the forest with axis cars would be cool (Disney's take on Hagrids).
A SnS axis would work great for a revamped gringotts. Reminds me of how the carts were in the movies
Something I’d like to see is an RMC T-Rex. I know that the model is pretty much extinct, but it would be so cool!
You know, that rumored Fast and Furious coaster coming to Hollywood could be a cool replacement of Rip Ride Rockit. Then that would give them the perfect excuse to tear down the insultingly bad Supercharged attraction!
It would not be very likely but i think a silent Hill themed tilt coaster would be amazing
You guys should do a video on coasters that should come to California!
I thought an extreme spinner at epic universe would have been really cool. Also Rip Ride Rockit is sick! Doesn't deserve the hate nice airtime pops into the break runs and gives you a chance to vibe to the music
Rip ride rocket is amazing!
That thumbnail seems like a great idea but then again it would be a copy of hagrids. If hagrids wasn’t a thing then a low to the ground family launch themed to endor would be amazing.
Praying to the coaster Gods to make all of these dreams a reality 😊
It’s out there, but I could see SWO go for the S&S axis. They gave B&M a shot with the new standup model, they may give S&S a shot
Going to be a long comment but hear me out!
A new theme park in Lakeland halfway between Orlando and Tampa Warner Bros Park featuring the following line up:
1) Gerstlauer Infintiy indoor and themed to Rick and Morty and breaking The Smiler and TMNT records of inversions and steepest drop.
2) Gravity Group Woodie themed to Animaniacs
3) Mack Hyper like Project Exodus themed to The Joker
4) Taron Clone with Motorbike cars and an inversion themed to Terminator
5) Vekoma F.L.Y. coaster themed to Captain Planet
6)Dark Ride themed to Bettlejuice
7) Shooting dark ride themed to Gremlins
8)Dark Boat Ride themed to Willy Wonka (1971)
9)Road Runner Vs Wilie Coyote Intamin Flume Coaster
10)Toutatis clone themed to Mad Max Fury Road
Disney gets the Vekoma Lech clone themed to The Mandalorian and following Grogu/Djarin around the planet of Mandalore.
SWO Gets a B&M Wing coaster painted Pink and themed to Flamingos also a B&M Giga to out do Fury
BGT Gets an Intamin Giga near the Screamin Swing and a GCI version of Crystal Beach Cyclone in the Jungala area
IOA gets S&S Axis not sure of the theme they would choose or where to put it. IOA gets a more extreme Surf Coaster or RMC Raptor themed to Silver Surfer comic.
USF gets a Mack Extreme Spinner to replace RRR theme it to BTTF remove or reuse Blue Man Group/Nickelodeon Studios buildings.
I'm actually glad you guys made a video like this because a while ago I had a crazy idea.
Now what if Epic Universal or if not Islands of adventure made the rumored Zelda land at one of their Park's and one of the lands anchored attractions would be a Mack extreme spinning coaster and the ride would go through multiple elements never seen before including and show scenes. Now there's two ways they can do this. The one at Islands could replace the Lost Continent by demolishing Poseidon's fury KEEP MYTHOS BUT retheme it with the same menu of course and Add a super awesome immersive dark Ride themed to one of the Zelda games. Now the second option is to wait until epic universe is open and then they could use one of the expansion pads as the same ideas the last. But this time they would have more room to work with.
I would like to know both your top 25 lists now you have done Europe and Australia together!
S&S axis coaster to Universal Studios? Could work so well as an indoor darkride witb high budget theming!
I agree with a lot of your ideas. I live in Orlando but grew up going to Cedar Point and Kings Island. Would love to see Busch get a Giga! I disagree with your opinion on Rip Ride Rocket. It is so unique and fun! Would like them to bring it back to it’s original glory it’s gotten a little rough it used to be super smooth. Needs the hulk treatment 😉😊 Seaworld is going hard with adding coasters. I think they have more property to expand so they will be the one to watch IMO 😊
Sea world could benefit from the lehcoaster type ride that packs in an even amount of airtime and inversions possibly a tilt coaster
I think a Mack extreme spinner would be a perfect replacement for Rip Ride Rocket and would probably start to put the studios park on par with Epic Universe and Islands of Adventure
Cool video idea. Can you do one for So Cal?
I know it's just rumored right now, but I'm pretty sure Epic Universe will see a Mack Extreme Spinner
check out the park prediction’s idea for a zelda themed wing coaster in islands of adventure
Universal Studios Florida should get an indoor attraction named Matt Lauer: The Experience.
Animal Kingdom really needs a roller coaster to help bring life to that park again.
I think a wing coaster (There is non is florida) themed to riding a Banshee through Pandora.
Think it would be cool to have a simulator and the real thing at the same park
HEAR ME OUT!!! New expansion for Galaxy's Edge next to smuggler's run. The new area would feature a coaster winding all around the land. The coaster would be a Mandalorian Vekoma F.L.Y. coaster that could or coundn't include inversions. I've been wanting this for a long time now.
nah lmao i was building a vekoma tilt in no limits as yall mentioned it
What about a launched giga b&m wing coaster with a large layout at Busch gardens....they do have the land and have to do something with kumba ?? Thoughts
I love it here in Florida
Personally I always loved the idea of a launched wing coaster going to disney though I could see why that could be an issue with the height requirement
if I would do this for my countey, the netherlands (limiting myself to 1 coaster per park)
duinrell: a family gravity group through those woods
slagharen: a vekoma stc
drievliet: small scale intamin mega coaster that goes around the whole park
hellendoorn: a vekoma chainlift coaster or really any modern thrill ride
Toverland: a regular multilooper like a floorless
efteling: a intamin multidimensional coaster
walibi holland: either a b&m wing or a gci woodie
They need to make a face to face coaster where you have to face your friends while u can choose to either go front face or backwards
is there a new top 25 coasters in europe coming?
Here’s my idea: do a wing coaster at Magic Kingdom themed to Maleficent. It would be PERFECT.
The Axis Coaster feels like a Fun Spot or Universal park
I've heard that the Florida climate is HORRIBLE for wood coasters. A maintanence nightmare! But I would suggest any further explanation from ElToroRyan.
Busch Gardens Tampa :
B&M Giga
Launched B&M Wing coaster that stays low to the ground the entire time, invest in theming and put it in the Jungle section and theme it to a snake. Use cool effects and make it go into trenches and utilize near-misses with the ground.
Fun Spot Kissimmee :
S&S axis, something like Dragon Slayer
Fun Spot America :
Stunt Pilot clone
Seaworld Orlando :
Gerstlauer family coaster ( Something like Wakala )
Universal Studios :
Mack hyper w/ attached spinning car like on Icon.
Zierer / Intamin vertical launch coaster with onboard audio.
New park
Something in Jacksonville or southern Florida to provide a full - day cheaper alternative to the larger parks, like a Six Flags park. The roller coaster lineup would include :
Vekoma Giant Inverted Boomerang
RMC similar to Storm Chaser
Zierer Large Tivoli
Zamperla family coaster w/ log flume, a clone of the new coaster going to Iowa’s Adventureland.
Chance Hyper
Indoor custom Maurer Spinner
Vekoma tilt coaster
S&S family invert
Ultra Twister w/ dive loop knockoff ( sounds crazy but I think S&S / Togo / Taziker Coasters could pull it off.
Well, I live in the Tampa Bay area, so I'm for ALL of these coasters to be built here!!
Mack spinner is being built at Epic Universe called curse of the werewolf.
Giga to BG Tampa! Full Send! lol
Nice predictions 👌
I know, a 4d coaster like eejanaika or dinoconda
I could easily see a tilt coaster going to Busch gardens as their next coaster if Vekomas new model turns out to be a hit.
I honestly could see it at Busch Gardens as well. Visually, it makes sense
I think if they ever do a Starwars rollercoaster they should do a fly type ride but theme it to the mandolorian like your flying with a jet pack on your back . Or a launch coaster with speeder bike trains
Would a b and m wing work for bgt as well...since swo missed out on the opportunity to build one
Why hasn’t the axis coaster happened yet?
Also I think Disney World needs to put in more coasters to keep up with their competition
When are you guys going to ride ArieForce One ?
Why did I find it so irrationally funny that the video started with an isolated “Florida”
There are rumors floating around of an InvadR style GCI going into Jungala at BGT. I would LOVE a Maximus style Wing Coaster at Legoland Florida. Not counting Peppa Pig Land, they have not gotten a new roller coaster since opening day almost 12 years ago.
They aren’t gonna build another wooden roller in a tropical climate like Florida. They rot out and the wood warps. Gwazi got a little more then 10 years before they started shutting elements down in 2011. Mine blower was built in 2017 and is one of the roughest wooden coasters.
@@tylerkriesel8590 White Lightning is still going strong, even the sections that aren't Titan Track. The rumors I've been seeing are unsubstantiated, so I definitely take it with a grain of salt, but I think there's been enough lessons learned with wood coasters in Florida climates and technology updated to where it's at the very least feasible.
@@CivilianSatellite i really wouldn’t bank on it. They don’t even build wood houses in Florida anymore.
B&M wing at sea world Orlando themed to penguin diving or seagulls
