My first and only visit to Kings Dominion was shortly after Tumbili opened. I’ve gotta say that I was pretty impressed with the overall theming of that area. Pantheon was definitely a standout coaster of my trip to Virginia but definitely not as well themed. The B&M wing would probably make a really great addition to the park. Maybe not the most exciting for enthusiasts but we have I305 for that. And I’ll say that the color is going to be a dark green, similar to Time Traveler or Helix. And gotta say that it seems like you put a lot more effort into the editing of this video. E for effort my friend. It turned out really well.
Kings Dominion is definitely moving up there with theming. Jungle Expedition is surprisingly well themed. It’s gonna be a good fit and cool like swooping over the area. I like the dark green idea! Thanks for the comment and I really appreciate you watching the vid!
With Intimidator 305 being too intense for many people, the park definitely needs a reliable, high capacity, re-rideable coaster. So solid choice for them.
@@TheCoasterJosh funny thing is kings dominion was in talks of getting a B&M hyper until they went with twisted timbers, that’s why kings dominion poster showed a orange and green hyper in the background
I like the decision. I love i305. But, can only ride it 2 or 3 times a visit. Volcano - I could that ride forever! I think this new ride will be white with colorful bird themed trains. The riders will feel like birds flying in and out the jungle rainforest clouds. Proper theming, a theatrical start in the tunnel, fantastic foliage would make this coaster an experience! Especially for a regional park. Busch Gardens completely failed on that with Pantheon. Which is surprising because they had over 18 EXTRA months to get it right.
I think you’re not giving them enough credit. Cmon… e for effort? The Jungle X overhaul was nothing short of amazing and now they’re adding a B&M LAUNCHED WING COASTER on the same scale as thunderbird if not bigger. This is huge. they are not only adding a ride that will undoubtedly be the 3rd best in the park, on top of what is arguably the best 1, 2 punch in the America, but a huge gp pleaser that is sure to boost attendance… if you ask me, the coaster they add after this will turn KD into a destination park.
Thanks for the comment, I don’t believe I said anything negative about the park in the video. I talked about how good Jungle expedition was in the vid. E for effort was mainly to say that they are definitely trying, rather than a grade on current quality.
@@TheCoasterJosh No you didn’t say anything negative your tone just made it seem like you weren’t all that impressed with what they’ve been/are doing lately. But thanks for the clarification. I wasn’t tryna be a toxic thusie I promise 😭
It's nice it's something different for Va but a wing coaster is not a good replacement for volcano IMO. However this is much better then the previous leaked wing coaster and if they retheme I 305 and backlot it would really pull the whole area together. I don't have a clue what they'll do with flight of fear unless aliens in the jungle they could make it work I'm sure. It needs a freshing up anyway. Now as for Busch and show stoppers pantheon is that and while Darkoaster is a family ride with the effects and those decent launches switch track I think it's a great fit for the younger kids/ future enthusiast's. I think they have done pretty well in recent years. With the retracking of Loch Ness and the proposed b&m family invert for their 50th year it's steps in the right direction I hate their using festhaus park for a coaster you won't be able to see from the midway but it's something. Now if they'd add some flat rides which the park desperately needs with the removal of mach tower and da Vinci's cradle then we'd really have something note worthy. I suspect that the wing will definitely be a bird theme and color I have no clue but I hope it's not the orange Yukon striker color in the rendering reptilian is already a baby diaper orange. Great video man.
This is very good for KD, although a launched floater airtime machine would have checked the needed boxes most. Either >73 MPH or even more family style. I see the distinction between what's best for the park and for me though. While they could up the pace, putting in some of the best coasters in the world without the expected return is not something I'm going to complain about.
I think kings dominion need the wing coster, a single rail coaster, redo anaconda, redo berserker (new seats, n make it taller). They should also get a suspended coaster, like big bad wolf, to piss off busch gardens lol it has to be bad wolf level tho. If they wanna come back, get coasters busch gardens dont have, or costers not really found in north America (like a tilt coaster).
I prefer KD to get an S&S Terrain Axis Coaster or a Gerstulaur Terrain Inverted Launch Coaster instead. Kings Dominion needs to get an S&S Terrain Axis coaster or a Gerstulaur Terrain Inverted Launch Coaster to bring back Volcano with a new detailed model mountain. I would rather scrap the entire B&M Wing project to revive Volcano converting it into a Gerstulaur Terrain Inverted Launch Coaster or scrap the entire B&M Wing Project to Revive Volcano with a new modeled volcanic mountain converting it into an S&S Terrain Axis Coaster. Coasters built by both S&S and Gerstulaur are affordable and they won't rip you off, burning your money like what Intamin did.
I think that is pretty cool but that is extremely unrealistic. Gerstlauer does not work with Six flags (Cedar Flags, Cedar Fair? Idk) and S&S is very rare. I also believe that this would also be bad in terms of competition with BGW. BGW does not work with either of these manufacturers and thus would be useless in the competition, and to make sure that BGW doesn't beat KD to much, they gotta restrict them, and a B&M wing really does that well. But yeah that would be cool.
@@charlesblanchard7936 really!? Kings Dominion couldn't compete with Busch Gardens because right now, Kings Dominion isn't that great and I don't know what's up with Gerstulaur or Six Flags but they'll have to grow up and deal with it when Cedar Fair is merging with Six Flags, because Cedar Fair doesn't trust intamin anymore. Kings Dominion doesn't have any good coasters like Busch Gardens has, like Why can't the park have any coaster that would be thrilling to bring more guests in to compete with Busch Gardens .It really shouldn't matter what manufacturer they're from, they shouldn't be involved as manager of the park because what you said sounds like BS of them. Whoever is holding KD back from getting an S&S Axis coaster or any coaster that is thrilling feels like they're coming up with every excuse to make Kings Dominion look like crap so they won't be able to compete with Busch Gardens Williamsburg. That is just laziness. We'll I think their idea is crap. Because a Launch Wing Coaster won't go well in the collection.
@@charlesblanchard7936 I'm probably gonna call it "Cedar Kings Flags." Excuse my possible defamation, 🤥 but Cedar Fair could revive Kings Entertainment while owning and operating the former Paramount Parks under the Kings banner. Then merge with Six Flags Just Cedar Fair, Kings Entertainment, Six Flags.

Agreed it’s a good fit.
Dominator is that I hope this has GOOD theming
After the launch wing all kings dominion needs is a hyper and it will be back on top again
A Hyper would be awesome!!!

@@jad3760 No problem, not toxic at all lol. E for effort is unnecessary confusing anyways.
i think it’s a great fit for kings dominion, but i think one more stand out coaster would really round out their lineup
Agreed!
Replace Anaconda with a new gen Vekoma looping coaster like Lech Coaster and Fønix.

Save the Axis Tilt for the Anaconda replacement
Sure if I had my way I’d put in an axis and put the wing in a different location.
An Axis would be so cool there! Fingers crossed they will eventually add one.
@@TheCoasterJosh and bring back Volcano by turning it into an Axis Terrain with a new model mountain if not a Gerstulaur Terrain Inverted Launch.
@@TheCoasterJosh An Axis themed to a primate on a tree trunk would've been perfect
It’ll be yellowish/tanish with a bird name
