Kings Dominion | Tumbili | S&S Freespin | 2022

[ThrillNerds]

I’m more interested in the updates to theming in the area.

Does anybody know how much a Free Spin costs? I am wondering why none has been built in Europe yet as they seem to be affordable but perhaps being home to three Zac Spins European parks have learned a lesson.

The 8 Element model ( Batman, Joker, Wonder Woman & Arashi ) costs around 8 million.

The 6 element model (Dragon Slayer & Tumbili ) cost around 7 million.

More than any of our net worths.

It's so sad when people leak information because it now ruins the announcement for a lot of people, whoever did leak it should be ashamed of themselves.

lol no, its the parks fault when someone blabs. KDFans are just doing their job.

EDIT:- What do you mean by saddling issues @bmac?

Late but basically every single Free Spin at the Six Flags parks has had a car get stuck in the upper part of the ride due to a remotely stiff breeze or weather conditions inside of what S&S said its permitted operating conditions were.

Jungle X-Pedition, is this Legoland or something?

 

[Eyebrows]

For anyone wondering if they’ve started construction yet, it looks like they’ll wait until the offseason to go vertical, as the pieces are still residing in the Empty Lot

Return to monke in 2022

 

[Hixee]

I guess it's only right to move this across to Construction now...

 

[Peet]

This should settle any questions about wheter Avalanche is returning:

That really shows just how much a new coat of paint completely refreshes a ride!

 

[TPoseOnTantrum]

Rising fast. Should be done fairly soon barring any tornadoes in Virginia bad weather and labour delays, considering that Dragon Slayer at Adventureland Iowa only took a month upon going vertical to completion. These supports are looking fabulous.

This has to be one of Cedar Fair's least inspired projects. I mean, S&S Free Spins are ok (except Arashi, which is amazing) in their large clone form. Why be so cheap and go for the smaller version?

I really expect Kings Dominion to step up their game in regards of replacing Volcano with a worthy successor.

i'd assume the pandemic hurt their spending cash since they had to be closed for a long time. plus i'm sure they're saving cash for the volcano replacement. also wonder when they'll gut anaconda, and remove it.

Some more pictures of progress, they will continue work at the start of next year:

Also here is where they are at with the repaint of Avalanche:
