Which is now an extremely rare model, almost so that it has become unique in its own right. Money could have been spent on further theming inside the ride area if they decided to keep it running. You only know it as an off the shelf ride as you are an enthusiast.Well yeah, hence why I said ‘I’d also argue’.
The point is that the coaster it replaced was an again off the shelf Schwarzoff model with minimal theming other than in the station.
It was a fun ride and I really enjoyed it but it doesn’t change the point that it was in desperate need of replacement and it was never going to be replaced like for like. The Smiler wouldn’t have been my first choice for its replacement either but I think it could have been far worse.
It looks like we’re getting an indoor coaster now anyway.
I get your point entirely, I enjoyed black hole more than I did Smiler. I am sure if you put them side by side The Smiler would likely top votes as the better ride of the two over all for the general population.
