Silverwood posted a teaser for the new ride in 2013 they have said it will be 102 feet tall I clearly think it will be a Frisbee style ride because I think they need a new flat
 
Some kind of inverting ride then. That's pretty tall though.
 
So you'll be facing down 102 feet in the air and will also be shorter than Aftershock (200+ feet) and taller than Panic Plunge (140 feet) as well as unique in the US according to the latest hint.
 
El Loco or whatever it is called? Kinda like the Green Lantern one in Australia, with the wider trains?
 
^ It would have to be custom seeing as the largest model S & S offers is 130 feet tall. On the other hand it could be one of the S & S mag-spins as displayed at IAAPA this year.
 
^ The seats are tilted, not face down.

Besides that would probably be ridiculously uncomfortable, even with comfy restraints like on a B&M Flyer.
 
^ The post below the picture says it will be their second tallest ride, their current second tallest is their 140 foot tall drop tower. I think the picture is implying a 102 foot inversion.
 
Well it's not going to be one of those as they don't even get close to 140ft, plus you only go upside down twice, the highest being around 80ft.
 
I'm not saying that it IS going to be one of those, but the comment about they don't do this and they do do that. How do we know, there's only one been built, there's no saying that if a park requested a larger scale one, it will change? I just think basing it off of one being built isn't a good justification to a certain coaster being able to do certain things...

Certainly, The basic model of the Stingray has a maximum height of 111 ft or 34m. It does say looking DOWN at 102 feet. The stingray according to rcdb at Suzhou is 103 ft, which is less than the basic model. I think it's a possibility, my only question is if construction has already begun. If it hasn't it can't be a coaster.
 
I highly doubt it's a coaster to be blatantly honest, I was just proving the point that basing the ins and outs on what a coaster can/can't do from ONE coaster is just pointless.

That's kind of dumb then. The loop on the GIB, Aftershock, is 102 feet tall.
