I flippin' knew it. "Cedar Point to build a Screamin' Swing named Skyhawk for 2006 season." Judging for the pictures of the "mysterious parts" in the Saok City parking lot that appeared this past summer you didn't have to be the head casheir at Wal-Mart to figure out that they were parts for a screamin' swing. Interestingly enough with the removeale of White Water Landing (R.I.P. WWL I shall miss you dearly.) still remains unused for the new ride is going between the exit of Cedar Creek Mine Ride and the entrance of Snake River Falls (what is with CP and three word ride names anyway?) While I knew the ride type just from the pics. I did not however know the name but in all honesty while it is something CP would use it is not that bad of a name for a ride but please CP try to be a tad bit more creatuive with ride names in the future Top Thrill Dragster and maXair don't quite cut it but I guess they could be worse. You could be like Six Flags and name every ride in every park the same. I guess time will tell what will happen of the land used up by WWL. On a lighter note Frontier Town (a section of the park near and dear to my heart due to my last true CP baby Mean Streak) is getting another ride so hopefully it will increase traffic to that section of the park and hopefully ridership for one of my personal fav. wooden coasters.
