    An inverting top hat instead of this wing over first element is a missed opportunity. However I do think this is a much needed decent capacity smooth ride for the park.

    It looks great. It will really add to the energy in the Jungle Expedition area.
    My only sort of negative thought is less about the coaster and more about Kings Dominion's identity crisis. The park has such a lopsided layout (unlike its sister in Ohio) and from an aesthetics standpoint it's often nice but also a bit of a mess. They really need to fix up the park appearance in some odd pockets such as behind Jungle Expedition from Anaconda to I305, as well as the area between the carousel and Twisted Timbers, the area from the north side of Planet Snoopy to Dominator and ESPECIALLY the parking lot and entrance. What does this have to do with the new coaster? Only the fact that it exaggerates that difference because it further improves a good looking area while nothing changes with the ugly areas.
    Hopefully, they'l move on to those other areas soon. And hopefully they do something to fix the bizarre lopsided layout and connect certain areas that ought to connect and do more to fill in the west side of the park.

      @@grandjohn when you say "after Project 305" are you referring to plans to redo the plaza or the area around the ride? I had not heard of any plans so far. That said, that area DESPERATELY needs a face lift and a new look.
      Ideally they'd also add attractions behind that area wrapping behind the water park to add a back expansion that connects I305 with with Apple Zapple and Twisted Timbers.

      @@zacg_ Its more of a prediction. If P305 is getting a retheme, I feel like they would want to theme the rest of the area, instead of having 2 well themed areas, and then this dead zone in the center.

    • @zacg_
      @zacg_ 2 місяці тому

      @@grandjohn I hope you're right. I305 (I still won't move on with the title until I'm more certain that the name is permanent) is a truly world class coaster but it is not well presented or nicely situated. I wouldn't expect them to do anything dramatic with a retheme like adding on ride theming or anything like that. But it would be nice to add a better plaza and station. Heck I'd love to see a bit more landscaping in the field or even a tunnel at some point. No one is asking for it to be given an Expedition Everest style show building. But that ride and that whole area could really do with some aesthetic work.
      Personally, I'd prefer that they redo Backlot Stunt Coaster and give it a sci-fi theme and then give I305 a sci-fi theme as well. I think it wouldn't be hard and it could be quite cool. Then remove Anaconda and replace it with something cool and fitting like a new Vekoma and give it a sci-fi theme. I'm just saying it would be easier to build off of the theme for Flight of Fear than to make Flight of Fear into some other theme. And then that whole back area would finally make sense and have a cohesive look with potential to be more appealing and eye catching than the current mess.
