So what do you guys think of this one? Looks fun to me! I saw a video on it the other day. I wish I could go to ride it this year but yeah right thats ever gonna happen. So, do you think this one will be amazing, sort of cool or a dud?

It looks really cool! I went to Busch Gardens Williamsburg two summers ago. It's really fun (and beautiful) there. Griffon seems like it would be a great addition to the park.
For those who don't know what Griffon is and/or is supposed to look like, go here:

I wanna ride it as much as I wanna ride SheiKra.

Oh, no way!
However, I really do need to get out and ride other coasters...like Griffon, Medusa, V2's cousin (WT), Kingda ka....geez! I gotta get to Cedar point too and ride TTD! *cries*

Don't forget V2's brother at Vallejo!

I just looked at griffin on you tube. Why can't we get a coaster like this it will be awsome!!!! That ride looks really thrilling having a holding brake and the drop that is wicked.

We will if the rumor for our new ride in 09 holds true.
*Luxornv prays for the Dive Machine

I think a Dive Machine would be the final nail in the coffin for me...Dive Machines are sort of overrated IMO, I'd much rather have a floorless.

I think that a Dive Machine would not be that cruel. Also, Griffin looks sexy.

If we get a good coaster, I'll be happy. That means no more Dark Knight like stuff or family rides.

I would take out SUF for that.

I think it's a dud. We already have Raging Bull. You want another one of that. The inverted portion doesn't even feel like you are going upside down, and the straight down portion, is only for a little bit, and than it curves.

Hehe...someone actually called Dive Machines good coasters. Just because they are big doesn't make them good. There are few "big" coasters that I've been on that bore me, and SheiKra was one of them. It was just too smooth, the drop was alright, but not as good as RB's. The Immelman was pathetic, It was just too stretched out.
Dark knight - August 18, 2008 12:14 AM (GMT)
Now that i watch it over and over a few times that first drop would be boring after a few times. It's pretty over quick.
