Daily Spin 5.18.08

Kings Island Central has photos from this weekend of the 2009 coaster construction. Forget my doubts before, this hyper coaster definitely looks to have a water splash as a finale! That's pretty sweet if you ask me.

Ezeiza's Flickr account has some beautiful photos of FireFall at California's Great America operating. The ride finally opened this weekend. I really like the job that Cedar Fair did with theming and landscaping the ride - it looks very well done.

The Simpsons Ride at Universal Studios Florida has it's grand opening this past week. IOACentral has tons of photos and video from the event.

Alabama Adventure amusement park (formerly Visionland) was purchased last week by Adrenaline Family Entertainment, the company started by a couple former Six Flags execs that purchased Clementon Amusement Park last year. This is good news for the park, as the new owners have more expansion plans for the property.

Tony Hawk's Big Spin at Six Flags Over Texas had it's media day recently, user cedarpointfangirl has a photo trip report of the event on ThemeParkReview. Here's another link to a news report that has video of the ride in action. The ride officially opened yesterday for the general public.
