jglonek:
So two interesting things popped up recently.

First, this water slide in Kentucky. Yeaah. I think I'll pass on ever riding that thanks!

And then there is news from Screamscape of a 520ft version of a Poler Coaster (never heard of it until I looked it up) coming to central Florida? That could be interesting.

I'm confused on how the poler coaster works - I see the trains go up on the red track, but there is also an elevator - do guests ride up to the top to get on?

WadeJ:
It's a combo observation tower and rollercoaster.  I believe one is currently being built in Vegas as well? 

Ogolo:
Does that water slide require a raft?
Raft or No raft.... I don't think so!  Crazy.

They apparently have never been to Action Park lol  The bottom of that drop will destroy peoples neck and back and THEN you get to go back up and go airborne over a bunny hill LOL

It's a 4 person tube apparently, which I think makes it even worse!
