Additional behind-the-scenes tours of Lore of the Vampire (haunted house with lights-on walkthrough access), Patriot and Mamba/Timber Wolf were also popular activities throughout the day.
Attendees also had the option to attend the Worlds Of Fun history presentation presented by Jennifer Lovesee-Mast, the creator of WorldsOfFun.org, in the Tivoli Music Hall, which also included the host park gift presentation and some words from our generous hosts.
The conference ended with ERT on Prowler, Mamba, Fjord Fjarlane, Nordic Chaser and Zulu, with the park providing a great variety of snacks including fudge brownies, chips, fruit, icees and soft drinks.

ERT promptly began at 8:30AM and included Matugani, Volkanu: Quest for the Golden Idol and Amara Aviators, with Nopuko Air Coaster following an hour later.
The behind-the-scenes experience was truly one-of-a-kind in that some attractions were closed temporarily and attendees were guided in and under many of the park’s major rides, as well as the maintenance warehouse.
A buffet dinner was kindly provided and the day concluded with the official reveal of Fire Runner, a new single rail RMC coaster intended to debut in 2025.
ACE thanks Lost Island for all their efforts, which resulted in a wonderful day!

The Tornado, which opened on July 4, 1978, was designed by William J. Cobb and stands 93 feet tall. The wooden roller coaster features eight airtime-inducing drops along its 2,640-foot track. It remains a signature attraction at the park in Altoona, Iowa.
Named after a tornado that struck Adventureland before its 1974 opening, the ride symbolizes the park’s resilience. Tornado was the first wooden roller coaster built in three years and helped revive the popularity of traditional wooden coasters in the United States.
Adventureland has maintained the ride in prime condition for decades, ensuring it remains a beloved experience for generations of thrill seekers. The landmark designation recognizes the park’s commitment to preserving the classic wooden coaster tradition.

SANDUSKY, Ohio (Sept. 19, 2024) – Cedar Point, The Roller Coaster Capital of the World®, will add fathoms of thrills to its world-renowned and record-breaking collection of scream machines with the 2025 debut of Siren’s Curse – the tallest, fastest and longest “tilt” roller coaster in North America.
Siren’s Curse hearkens to the legend and lore of mysterious creatures living beneath the surface of Lake Erie; often spoken of – but never spotted. The sirens of the lake who lured sailors to their underwater
demise with their sweet, seductive songs will finally rise to land and attempt to entrap guests in a sinister two-minute fate of non-stop roller coaster innovation.
Riders will hear the echo of the siren’s chilling melodies as they ascend an old 160-foot-tall Lake Erie shipping crane tower, the sounds growing more sinister as riders reach the top. Their fate will hang in the
balance as they encounter the roller coaster’s signature moment: a dead stop on a “broken off” section of track. The creaking platform holding the train of riders will slowly tilt the entire train into a 90-degree vertical
position, forcing riders to peer straight down with the hope their train will connect to the twisted track below.
As the track locks into place, riders will flee from the beckoning call of the siren and plunge into the abyss, speeding through 2,966 feet of track at a top speed of 58 mph. The ride will feature 13 weightless airtime
moments, two 360-degree, zero-gravity barrel rolls and a high-speed “triple-down” element with twisted and overbanked track.
Adding to the immersive experience, the two, 24-passenger trains on Siren’s Curse will feature integrated audio and signature LED lighting on each car.
Located across from the Iron Dragon suspended coaster and near the Cedar Point Marina, the ride’s tangled and compact layout will provide the high-thrill experience Cedar Point guests have come to know
from America’s Roller Coast®. Guests must be 48” tall to ride Siren’s Curse.
“Record-breaking thrills have always been at the heart of Cedar Point’s roller coaster lineup, and Siren’s Curse lives up to that standard,” said Carrie Boldman, vice president and general manager of Cedar Point.
“The entire ride is an experience filled with non-stop action, but that first precarious tilted position where you’re hanging on – looking straight down – and waiting for the track to connect will be a signature moment
our fans will love. It’s a first-of-its kind for Cedar Point and we’re thrilled to bring it to our guests.” With the addition of Siren’s Curse, Cedar Point will be home to an impressive lineup of 19 roller coasters,
including fan favorites like Millennium Force®, Steel Vengeance®, Maverick® and more. As previously announced, the record-breaking triple-launch strata coaster Top Thrill 2® is scheduled to reopen in 2025.
Guests can dive into season-long access to Siren’s Curse and the park’s 67 additional attractions with a 2025 Gold Pass. It includes Cedar Point and HalloWeekends® admission in 2024 and all of 2025, free
parking, Cedar Point Shores® Waterpark admission, in-park discounts, bring-a-friend tickets and more. Right now, the 2025 Gold Pass is on sale for $125 or 10 payments of $10 after initial payment of $25.
Guests can purchase online now at cedarpoint.com.
Siren’s Curse is scheduled to open in early summer of 2025. For more information on Siren’s Curse, construction updates and more, follow Cedar Point on Facebook, Instagram, X and YouTube or visit cedarpoint.com.

Wrath of Rakshasa Will Break Two Dive Coaster Records
Six Flags Great America, the Thrill Capital of the Midwest announced plans to debut the world’s steepest drop with the most inversions on a dive coaster. Wrath of Rakshasa, towering at a massive 180 feet tall, features a cliffhanger hold, which suspends riders as they face straight down a 96-degree, beyond-vertical drop, before they plummet an exhilarating 171 feet.
Wrath of Rakshasa highlights include:

Carowinds' Historic Investment Includes Two Major New Family Attractions
Charlotte, N.C. (August 7, 2024)—Carowinds' Camp Snoopy will unveil two new family-friendly attractions in 2025 as part of the largest investment in family attractions in the park's history: a new family launch roller coaster and an interactive raft ride. These additions, alongside splash play zones and a meet-and-greet experience with Peanuts™ costume characters, offer more spots for families to cool off and new character experiences. The new attractions promise endless adventured fun for guests of all ages, making Camp Snoopy a must-visit destination for family fun in 2025.
New Attractions:
• Snoopy's Racing Railway: Guests can join Snoopy as he races to deliver root beer and pizza to Camp Snoopy's Mess Hall, where Woodstock and his yellow bird buddies are causing quite a ruckus. This family-friendly steel launch coaster accelerates from 0 to 31 mph in seconds, providing an exhilarating adventure for all ages. Riders will experience exciting dips and wild turns, ensuring the delivery arrives safely and on time. Riders get double the fun as they race through the course twice.
• Charlie Brown's River Raft Blast: Families can hop aboard an eight-seater boat at Snoopy's swimming hole for a splish-splash adventure with family and friends. Equipped with on-board and onshore water cannons, riders can engage in friendly water skirmishes with other boats, spraying each other as they navigate the river channel. With their trusty water cannon mounted on the side, they can join in the excitement with other campers. Throughout their journey, riders will encounter their favorite Peanuts characters swimming, floating, and splashing—all eager to drench them in fun!
"We're excited to introduce the latest adventures in Camp Snoopy in 2025," Manny Gonzalez, vice president and general manager for Carowinds, said. "Our re-imagined Camp Snoopy will allow families to ride and play together, immersing them in a summer camp experience with the Peanuts gang. From the thrilling twists of Snoopy's Racing Railway to the splashes at Charlie Brown's River Raft Blast, our focus is on family fun. These new features will transform Camp Snoopy into more than just a place to play and cool off; it will become a destination for creating family memories."
New Enhancements:
• Splash Play Zones: Families can beat the heat in Camp Snoopy's brand-new splash play zone areas. Featuring enhanced shade and refreshing water features, these areas are designed to ensure everyone stays cool and has fun. The ample shade and water make it the perfect relaxing spot on a hot Carolina summer day.
• Camp Store Meet-and-Greet Experience: Guests can enter the newly remodeled Camp Store to meet Peanuts costume characters at their interactive, camp-themed meet-and-greet area. Complete with rustic log benches around a cozy firepit, this air-conditioned environment offers ideal photo opportunities and memorable interactions with favorite characters.

The World’s Tallest and Longest Launched Wing Coaster to Open in 2025 as part of 50th Anniversary Season
DOSWELL, VA – Kings Dominion, central Virginia’s beloved amusement park, is thrilled to announce the arrival of Rapterra as part of the park’s 50th anniversary season in 2025. Standing at 145 feet tall and stretching 3,086 ft long, this incredible new attraction is the world's tallest and longest launched wing coaster, and promises an unforgettable experience filled with heights, speed and exhilarating maneuvers for all park-goers.
Rapterra, inspired by the powerful Jungle Hawk, offers riders the sensation of flight. The adventure begins with a powerful launch, accelerating passengers to 65 miles per hour in just four seconds before ascending to its zenith over the Jungle X-Pedition midway. The ride then plummets into a dive loop, and navigates a series of thrilling aerial maneuvers, including an S-turn, a wing slide, a flat spin, an airtime hill, and a 360-degree raptor roll. The 89-second ride totals three inversions before a smooth return to the station.
“We are excited to unveil Rapterra, the must-do ride of 2025, at Kings Dominion,” said Bridgette Bywater, vice president and general manager of Kings Dominion. “This extraordinary addition promises new thrills for our guests, making it the perfect centerpiece for our 50th anniversary celebration and reaffirming why Kings Dominion is the ultimate destination for unforgettable memories and exhilarating excitement.”
Manufactured by industry leader Bolliger and Mabillard, Rapterra's winged coaster design positions riders on either side of the track, offering an immersive, floorless experience that simulates flying. The basalt grey support columns and patina green track create loops, twists and rolls, ensuring a thrilling adventure from start to finish.
Construction of Rapterra is already in progress, with completion expected this fall. The coaster will officially open in 2025, coinciding with Kings Dominion's milestone 50th anniversary celebration. More information on the 50th anniversary celebration will be shared at a later date.Founded in 1978, American Coaster Enthusiasts (ACE) is a nonprofit organization of more than 7000 members from 16 countries.

Korey Kiepert, a seasoned engineer with The Gravity Group, reflected on the project. "Every project is a different process and a little bit unique," he said. The journey to complete the Bobcat was long and demanding. "I worked over Christmas, New Year's, nonstop on this," Kiepert shared.
The Bobcat is the first ride with a 100% prefabricated track. "It's like an erector set or Lego set," Kiepert explained, adding that it delivers a perfect wooden track system. "We really wanted to do something that stayed tried and true to the wooden coaster. Wooden roller coasters out of wood, but just make them better. It's our smoothest roller coaster."
Kiepert hopes the Bobcat's success will inspire other parks. "I think it's a testament to what you can do with wood," he said, emphasizing the safety and efficiency of the prefabricated system. "It's a safer system as well."
The Bobcat promises a load of fun for riders. "It's just overflowing with fun," Kiepert said. He highlighted that the coaster is family-friendly. "I'm six foot six and can sit in this train with young kids. It's fun for everyone."
Kiepert reminisced about his college days when he enjoyed various coasters, which shaped his passion. "Most people at our company work there because they love rides, especially wooden roller coasters."
The Bobcat's innovative design and dedication to tradition mark a significant milestone for wooden roller coasters. "We think the future of wooden roller coasters is actually wood," Kiepert concluded.

From the press release:
SeaWorld Orlando, celebrated as the Coaster Capital of Orlando, is excited to announce the grand opening of its highly anticipated new attraction, Penguin Trek, on July 7, 2024. A family launch coaster like no other, Penguin Trek is located within the all-new Antarctica Realm. This immersive area promises an adventure of a lifetime, combining thrilling rides, delectable dining and unforgettable wildlife encounters.
Penguin Trek redefines the family coaster experience with its innovative design and exhilarating
adventure. An experience for the whole family, the ride accommodates everyone from the young adventurer at 42-inches to the tall thrill-seeker up to 77-inches. Guests will beat the summer heat while waiting in the air-conditioned queue lines. Riders will board unique snowmobile-styled ride cars, embarking on a thrilling expedition through the vast and icy wilderness of Antarctica. With two powerful launches and speeds reaching up to 43 mph, the 3,020-foot track winds through both indoor and outdoor environments, presenting a series of twists, turns, and breathtaking moments. But the true highlight awaits at the end of the journey: upon disembarking the ride, guests will find themselves immersed in the chilly confines of the extraordinary and unique penguin habitat. This finale not only thrills but also educates, underscoring SeaWorld's commitment to animal care and conservation.
"We are incredibly excited to unveil our newest addition to SeaWorld Orlando's outstanding
coaster lineup," said Jon Peterson, President of SeaWorld Orlando. "Penguin Trek offers a unique blend of thrills and education, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the wonders of Antarctica while highlighting our dedication to wildlife preservation and family-friendly fun. We’re looking forward to welcoming families and thrill seekers alike to experience the fun of this incredible coaster."

special ride times. This benefit allows them to be among the first to experience the ride, adding
another fantastic perk to their membership. Those who purchase a pass today will receive the same benefits, allowing them to take advantage of this early access.
The new Antarctica Realm, home to the new Penguin Trek, is a must-visit destination within
SeaWorld Orlando, offering a cool and captivating experience for guests of all ages. Guests can cool off at South Pole Sips, the latest addition to SeaWorld Orlando's vibrant bar scene, offering ice-cold draft beer, canned selections and tantalizing frozen cocktails. The beloved Expedition Café has also reopened within the Antarctica Realm, boasting a new diverse menu that caters to every palate, from healthy grab-and-go options to delectable dishes inspired by Italian and Asian cuisines. Plus, guests can cool off and enjoy up-close encounters with penguins in the expansive penguin habitat, making Antarctica a must-visit destination for guests of all ages.
SeaWorld Orlando's commitment to providing diverse thrills for all family members is evident in Penguin Trek's unique indoor/outdoor coaster experience.

Joining the ranks of award-winning rides such as Mako, voted the #1 Best Roller Coaster by the USA Today 10Best Readers' Choice poll for five consecutive years, and Ice Breaker, which secured the #1 New Attraction spot in the same poll, Penguin Trek is poised to continue SeaWorld Orlando's legacy of pushing the boundaries of coaster innovation for the whole family.

From the press release:
Get your backpacks ready! The new Camp Snoopy officially opens on June 27th with four new attractions and a lot of summer camp fun with Snoopy and the Peanuts Gang. The reimagined Camp Snoopy will allow campers of all ages to become full-fledged Beagle Scouts as they explore new rides, including a new family rollercoaster, a giant swing, off-road rally, plus new character experiences, interactive camp-tivities and the carefree fun and freedom of summer.
New Adventures in Camp Snoopy
As guests enter the world of Camp Snoopy, they become official campers. They’ll join Beagle Scout Master Snoopy and the entire Peanuts Gang for the camp's annual jamboree, a fun week of camp competitions and activities. New scouts can begin their adventure at any of the four new or reimagined rides debuting at the High Sierra summer camp.
• Snoopy's Tenderpaw Twister Coaster allows campers to explore the great outdoors on this first family coaster to take riders up a lift hill and then deliver a pint-sized launch, making this the perfect first, big coaster for parents and kids to experience together. The best part - guests get to ride twice so it's double the fun and double the adventure every time.
• Sally's Swing Along is an all-new experience where campers can put their friendship badge in action and go on a swing and sing along to help Sally forget her frustration with Linus who has stood her up for a meet cute. The super-sized swing set offers kids and parents the taste of the good life as they sit side-by-side on the giant bench swing gliding 10 feet toward the sky, back and forth.
• Rocky Mountain Trucking Company transforms into Camp Snoopy's Off-Road Rally, where drivers race through the newly expanded track and terrain in their own Peanuts-themed four-wheel jeep. In this fun and colorful annual camp jamboree competition, campers will encounter funny road signs and obstacles to go over, around, and under while trying to find course checkpoints along the way.
• Campers can board the newly themed Beagle Express and take a scenic journey on a locomotive ride. They'll cross over a covered bridge and watch as Snoopy and the Peanuts Gang prepare for the jamboree events. Along the way, fellow campers decorate their cabins for a "Best Cabin" contest, prepare for potato sack races, and more.
• Rounding out the experience is the one-stop shop for campers to fill their bellies at Grizzly Creek Lodge. Campers can also take a trip to renovated Snoopy’s Camp Store to shop for all the essentials needed for camp and then some.• Finally, the former theater area will now transform into Beagle Scout Acres, a large green space, where kids and families can explore, enjoy lunch or a snack on shaded picnic tables or simply lie back and gaze at the drifting clouds above. Plus, campers of all ages can participate in a host of jamboree camp-tivities including special sing-a-longs around the new campfire fire pit. Guests can expect this new experience to open mid-summer.

MAXIMIZE THRILLS IN A COMPACT SPACE
Intamin’s Hot Racer is an innovative single–rail roller coaster model designed to maximize thrills in a compact space. With its slender trains and track design, the Hot Racer offers unparalleled flexibility for layout creativity, allowing for the incorporation of thrilling elements within a limited footprint.
Prepare for an adrenaline-pumping ride as Mahuka boasts two launches and seatings positioned close to the track, delivering an immersive high-speed experience with thrilling elements throughout the layout. The “backboned” track design reduces the number of columns needed in
comparison to other track designs, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the ride with the already iconic double top-hat.
CUSTOM-THEMED AND COMFORTABLE TRAINS
Featuring stunningly custom-themed trains, Mahuka allows riders to experience high comfort and freedom using Intamin’s highly successful LSM seat design, widely considered one of the most comfortable coaster seats on the market. Additionally, the seats were enhanced with new
padding to accommodate riders as small as 120 cm (4 ft).
The in-line seating configuration, coupled with the absence of over-the-shoulder restraints, ensures quick boarding and disembarking, while providing guests with a liberating sense of openness and maximum comfort.
ENHANCING THE EXPERIENCE
Building upon its predecessor at Luna Park in Australia, the new Hot Racer has undergone significant enhancements. The chassis was significantly refined to enhance ride comfort and ensure an even better fit to the track. Additionally, the brand-new carbon fiber lap bars contribute to a lighter train and lower center of gravity, enhancing the experience with an even smoother ride.
Embark the adventure with Mahuka at Walibi Rhône-Alpes. Whether you’re a thrill-seeker or a casual visitor, Mahuka promises an experience that will leave you breathless and craving more. Visit Walibi Rhone-Alpes and see why Mahuka is the the next step in single-rail roller coaster design!

All models, including theming and decoration, must be built to fit within specified dimensions; otherwise, they will be disqualified. The ball must always remain in contact with the track; it may not jump or free-fall. Gravity is the only driving force; magnets, springs, and other forms of energy may not be used to propel and/or launch the ball forward. These different energy sources can be used for esthetics; however, no electricity is provided in the contest area.
Teams will be asked to clearly indicate the start and end points of the coaster. If the team has
problems with the coaster completing the circuit, it is too late to postpone judging. They will
get three chances (or up to five chances, depending on track design). Adjustments to the track between runs may be made at the judges’ discretion. Judges will move on to the next coaster at the end of the time slot to remain on schedule.
Coasters are judged on the following criteria:
Technical Score (up to 61 points)
-reliability (36 points maximum)
-ride duration (15 points maximum)
-engineering (10 points maximum)
Theme (up to 40 points)
-creativity (20 points)
-feasibility (20 points)
Bonus Points
-vertical loop (5 points each)
-track design (up to 40 points)
-Judge's Superlative Awards (10 points each)
