Winter OFFICIAL POV

 

The American Midwest is known for its winters. This coaster takes the embodiment of a Midwestern winter and turns it into a thrill ride. Enjoy a chilling experience with leaps and bounds with plentiful airtime and forceful curves. Don't forget to smile for the camera and hold on tight. The design comes from a hybridization of the Goliaths from Six Flags Over Georgia and La Ronde with the latter being the main inspiration for this coaster as well as an old Sega-themed coaster on No Limits I downloaded back in 2010. Snow machines will be on hand to keep the theming year-round and, like Poltergeist during the month of October, the coaster's scenery will be augmented during the month of December.
