· Quote

Screamscape is reporting a rumor that a Huss Topple Tower may be planned for the Aquatic Stadium site next year.  Would look great by the lake and being near maXair.

In a way I hope there's some validity to it as I'm interested in the ride.

I haven't been on one yet, but it seems to be too much like Maxair to me.

IMO, a Topple Tower would fit in GL more than it would fit in with CP.

I don't think it would be a bad decision for Cedar Point, but the aquatic stadium is a nice attraction.
I don't know. I could live with or without the stadium. A topple tower would be fun. It's a good area for it too.

I agree. I think that GL could really benefit from a new ride.

The Access Niagara website blog has a video posted of the new Topple Tower that just opened at Marineland.  I was surprised at how fast the wheel spun, as based on most reports I have heard, it sounded like the wheel barely turned.  It looks like a fun ride and one that would have great visuals if placed near the lake.  

Despite the hatred for Screamscape on "other websites", they have been right before.  Remember the leaked Maverick pic last year?  Or the Tomb Raider: The Ride plans for PKI?  The method Lance goes about releasing info may not always adhere to the "Terms Of Service", but occasionally their stuff does turn out to be true.

this ride seems too similar to maxair to me, but i do hope they get rid of the stadium because that could be a nice spot for a flat ride and the stadium seems out of place now with too many things around it.

The fact that the stadium is sitting idle this year makes me think that it will be removed as they've had the diving show there the past several years.

IF this is indeed the location of a new ride, that would debunk the rumor that the stadium is where it will be located.  Based on all the trees it looks like it will either be in Frontier Trail or maybe back by the Gemini midway.

I'm trying to find a building similar to it on Windows Local Live, but so far I've had no luck.  I'll post if I find anything.
