We're looking at the classic and doomed Vekoma SLC model on our new episode that releases next Friday.
Anyone out there still like original SLC rides? Anyone ever like them?? Bueller..??
This episode is fun, especially if you love hating on a coaster model a lot. Join us next week as we look at this much hated rider in a park we've never visited yet on this podcast.
See you soon, it's gonna be a fun one!

For all you Flying Dutchman lovers out there, this one's for you. (And I know you're out there, our episode on Firehawk is one of our most-listened to episodes ever)
Batwing at Six Flags America is a Vekoma Flying Dutchman model that opened in the park in 2001. A smaller coaster that reaches a top height of 115ft, it still includes 5 inversions including a vertical loop, 2 in-line twists, and a horseshoe.

The bigger question is who remembers when that space was kiddie land 
Remember that one day Vekoma woke up and decided to design a wild mouse coaster?

Jester was a Vekoma hurricane roller coaster that operated at @SixFlags NOLA from 2003 to 2005. Unfortunately Hurricane Katrina left her in disrepair, and Six Flags has left her to rot away in the former park.
As much as Vekoma rides aren't my favorite, I wish she could've been saved for another park. Barely two full years of operation.

Stealth was a Vekoma Flying Dutchman that operated at California's Great America from 2000 to 2003. The roller coaster cost $17 million USD to construct and reached a top speed of 51MPH.
Her life at the park was cut short when plans were announced to expand the water park. Luckily she found a second life at @Carowinds where she has been operating ever since as Nighthawk.
Things aren't looking great for Mind Eraser these days, so lets pour one out for this Vekoma SLC at @SixFlagsDC
Opened in May 1995, Mind Eraser is a smaller Vekoma SLC model that features a top speed of 50MPH and trains of 2 riders across. As of 2022 she has been removed from the park's website and maps and is currently listed as SBNO.

You can feel the headache just looking at this photo, right??
Zoomerang is a Vekoma boomerang coaster that has been operating at Lake Compounce since 1997. She reaches top speeds of 47MPH. That's a lot of head banging from a lot of guests!
