Six Flags has recently filed a trademark application for the name "Gargantuan Vertical Vengeance"! While not confirmed, there is a possibility this name could be used for the new, massive, vertical launched coaster coming to Six Flags Great Adventure! (Again, unconfirmed, could be for something else entirely)

Are you a fan of this potential name?

Construction of the massive expansion for Dream Island, in Moscow, is almost done! The park is adding an insane 5 new coasters across the 2026 & 2027 season!

The highlight of this outdoor section is a large Intamin Vertical LSM Launch Coaster, which will be the fastest and longest coaster in the country! The coaster stands 167ft tall, has a top speed of 68.4mph, and over 3400ft of track. It features 4 inversions, a beyond veetical drop, and 15 seconds of airtime!

The park is also adding an Intamin Hot Racer, featuring the same layout as Mahuka at Walibi Rhone Alpes, some form of family coaster from Intamin, a Wacky Worm, and the already opened Zierer Force coaster.

Outside of the 5 coasters, they are adding multiple other attractions, such as a Zierer StarShape, River Rapids Ride with an elevator lift, and a 223ft tall drop tower!

This is one of the largest expansions going on in the Amusement Industry currently and we are really interested to see the final product.

Big thanks to one of our followers who sent us these pictures!

Canada's Wonderland has an unprecedented day with both Leviathan and Behemoth valleying in relatively quick succession! This is likely the first time Leviathan has valleyed with guests on ride, while Behemoth's train was empty. The park moved quickly to ensure everyone was safe and evacuated quickly. Both rides have had a history of not making it through their course, but today's situation is just funny.

Have you ever seen a valleyed coaster before?

Aviktas has now opened at Pleasure Beach Resort in Blackpool! This new-gen Intamin Gyro Swing throws riders nearly 138ft (40m) in the air at speeds of over 60mph (98kph), to a maximum angle of 120°! These Frisbees are some of our favorite flat rides ever, and are certain this ride will be a massive hit for guests.

What park would you like to see build one of these Intamin Gyro Swings next?

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at Disney's Magic Kingdom Theme Park recently reopened after a 16-month long refurbishment! It promptly caught on fire. The area was evacuated and the ride reopened later that day after it was deemed safe to operate again.

The refurbishment brought in a complete retracking of the ride, lowered the minimum height requirement down to 38in, and introduced new themed scenes! While many speak of the tamer ride experience due to the retracking, we are happy to see this classic back up and running!

What is your favorite coaster at Magic Kingdom?
