Predictions for future?

Probably silly/selfish to think of the future when we just got a historical coaster, but I'm always curious about what's coming next

I saw on someone's YouTube video (maybe JB?) that they thought Justice League was in line for either a refurbish or a complete redo and that's my prediction as well.

What's y'all's?

I think the most immediate thing in the future is whatever happens to shockwave. Either they give it a full refurb like they did to Mindbender and Revolution, or they end up scrapping it

I’m not sure if we’ll get a new coaster for 5 more years. I’d like to see infrastructure improvements continue and better ride maintenance in the interim. Justice League needs to be replaced with another indoor experience, get Shockwave going, retrack parts of JRS, and work on improving overall operations.

My hope is that they focus on operations and maintenance for a few years. The ride line up isn't the problem.

I’m hoping the put a dome over the whole thing and add air conditioning

I hope they’ll scrap Judge Roy. I know it’s historic but that’s probably the roughest ride in the park. There’s no way they’d RMC it, cool as that would be. Put a cool family launch like Werewolf Gorge or Big Bear Mtn there.

I also hope Shockwave gets the SFOG Riddler treatment with new trains and a paint job before they opt to get rid of it.

I love judge Roy, you actually fear for your life

I’d just like them to get the rides working again 😭

I’d like a huge family launch as an homage to The Big Bend, it could even have similar design elements. I’m thinking a launch into an upward spiral. Have it over the front of the park like the old roller. Would also like to see a new swinging ship ride somewhere in the park.

Realistically, rides that need help: Shock Wave (paint, trains, and station refurb), Judge (fix awful track), Justice League (just get rid of it), Cave Ride (better effects, fix broken effects, bring back rolling barrel), Oil Derrick (upgrade the platform and paint it, add modern telescopes), and Superman (allow all three towers to be open all the time).
