 righty so we have our conspiracy theories back we did this last winter and of course it is coming back for this winter and boy do we have a whole nother round of conspiracy theories and in today's video we're going to start something that is something kind of like a conspiracy theory but more so just rumors which coaster is the next one to be removed from canada's wonderland so for those of you that don't know canada's wonderland is pretty landlocked so whenever they're going to build a new coaster or thinking about building a new coaster removing an older attraction has to come to mind they removed skyrider to make way for johann striker and i'm sure we'll see down the line another coaster removal to make way for another coaster it is also in the cedar fair kind of mentality to remove older attractions that are costing the money more money than what they are producing in terms of ridership numbers so you're going to see attractions being removed from parks all around the chain we're seeing it with vortex at king's island and we're going to continue to see it with flat rides and other attractions as well so i'm going to go through the list of least likely to most likely to be removed next so i'm going to start off the list with vortex at canada's wonderland vortex at canada's wonderland is a suspended swinging coaster that goes over the mountain and then down into a ravine type little pond and works its way back to the station it's a really thrilling family coaster and to be honest i absolutely love it especially in the fall if you haven't ridden it you got to go to canada's wonderland this weekend and get a night ride on vortex it's absolutely insane the thing sounds like it's falling apart that it's all over the place uh just it's crazy like it's one of my favorite rides at the park obviously underneath the three bnm's um so it would be extremely sad to see it go i also don't think it's gonna go the park has commented many times that they are trying to keep that coaster alive as long as possible and we've also heard them comment on how it's a jug or not in terms of maintenance so it actually doesn't cost as much considering parts aren't even made for the coaster anymore as it was manufactured by aro um who is now no longer in business but canada's wonderland from what i understand so again all of this information i'm presenting um is uh take it with a grain of salt uh so it's allegedly they manufacture their own parts um and have the track redone themselves thus keeping it alive much longer so another coaster um after vortex that i think is at least likely to be removed um is going to be flight deck um i said that because i want flight deck removed so badly um but after the ace event this year again allegedly the park has said that they have no um intentions of removing flight deck anytime soon from the coaster lineup at canada's wonderland um so that is quite um sad again the park is never really gonna come out and say like oh we're gonna remove this attraction in five years you're never gonna hear a park say that even at an ace event or to an enthusiast that they value it's just you're never gonna hear those rumors come out before they're removed and it looks like cedar fair is really good at keeping things hush hush now things seem to be announced very last minute oh this is gonna be removed and everyone's like whoa um how did that happen so again i'm gonna put flight deck at number um the second least likely just because i to be honest i don't see us getting an invert anytime soon and to remove flight deck i would assume that an invert is in the lineup flight deck is doing its job even though i absolutely hate it and a lot of other people absolutely hate it and i'm gonna be honest gp hate it too um so i am like i do think it's on the list of potential removals in the next 10 years but i don't think it's anytime soon i really wish the park would uh kind of reevaluate this it is not a comfortable ride whatsoever so i have no idea what the park is thinking when they say that this isn't on the lineup of attractions to be removed but that also could be saying that there's just attractions in other areas of the park that they're looking to build and flight deck it doesn't fit into that equation anywhere and that could be why it's not going to be removed either um coming up third least likely oh man this is getting difficult i'm gonna say oh mind buster man mind buster for me is like one of those attractions that i think is pretty likely to leave for several reasons but again i'm gonna have to put it at number third here just based off of things that i'm hearing from within the park allegedly um so oh this is really difficult for me because mind buster was something that i honestly thought was leaving the park pretty soon but so mind buster is sits on a plot of land that is in splashworks and i honestly thought wonderland was going to eventually get a giant splashworks expansion just like its sister parks in the chain but based off of what we're hearing um from within the park allegedly splashworks expansion isn't going to be happening at canada's wonderland um they're a little afraid to invest in the water park at canada's wonderland they don't want to draw away from the dry park audience as they make a lot of money from the dry park and they don't make much money in the water park not a lot of people are buying food like they are in the dry park um there isn't a lot of merch there isn't a lot of games there isn't a lot of revenue to be made in the water park so they're very content with what they have in the water park currently they think that it offers something for the guests to go do at some part in their day but they don't want it to be a full day visit in the water park they'd rather the guests move back into the dry park um for at some point in during their stay at canada's wonderland thus meaning that a water park expansion isn't really likely and removing mind buster or renovating mind buster isn't really a necessity anytime soon so that's a project that can come much later down the line and they'll just continue to redo parts and portions of mind buster to keep it a comfortable ride to be honest i'm okay with that because mind buster is one of my favorite rides this year in terms of especially night rides it's just a really fun ride i hated it before for some reason i've loved it this season so i'm pretty content with that though um but again i definitely did think that mind buster was higher on the list of ride removals whoo okay this is getting even more difficult uh i guess coming in at third most likely is time warp um time warp the only reason that i think this ride might be removed is for another park i think cedar fair needs to start investing in some of their smaller parks and this is an attraction that i could see working at a smaller park extremely well now the only problem is this does have pretty decent capacity from what i understand feel free to correct me down below but i think it has pretty good capacity it does fit in this very tiny plot of land very well but maybe in terms of five years from now when they're looking at a smaller park and you know the ten years flight deck may be being removed and they're looking at this plot of land so we might see this attraction go much sooner than flight deck if they're going to put a bnm coaster back here because of one of the smaller parks in the chain again it tackles two birds with one stone remove time warp ahead of plan for the flight deck removal and send this to a smaller park give them a coaster and uh yeah you've solved two problems you're giving a smaller park a coaster and you're getting ready for a canon's wonderland coaster down the line so i definitely do think that this is a possibility we could see time warp go at some point now coming in at second most likely is definitely wild beast um there's a reason wild beast is second most likely it's a difficult thing for me to say i used to think that wild beast was never going to be on the chopping block um for a couple reasons it has been completely renovated it's got all new wood almost on the entire structure they've only got a little bit left to go they redid the lift hill um it just doesn't really make sense as to why they would redo so much we have seen that in the past at cedar fair before so i wouldn't be too shocked to see a wooden coaster completely be retracted and then you know torn down a couple years from now um and the go kart so wild beast sits on a plotto land that could be extremely usable um for a ground up rmc a ground up rmc would look amazing in canada's wonderland skyline and based off of again allegedly at the ace event this year um the park has said that they would not renovate a current wooden coaster into an rmc if they were to get an rmc again if it would be ground up um which is great news for us enthusiasts because the ground up rmc's especially the lift hill structure look absolutely gorgeous and that in the skyline would be insane um so i definitely think wild beast with the go karts plotto land would fit a ground up rmc extremely well especially with dinosaurs alive now being somewhat available you could use a portion of that land if you wanted you got a massive plotto land for a coaster right there so i definitely think wild beast is the second most likely coaster to be removed for a future expansion i definitely think um next to frontier canada medfare is going to receive a lot more investments as well and then eventually action zone being turned back into its old glory now the most likely coaster to be removed from wonderland comes at a difficult decision um to be honest i'm going to make fun of myself here and all the enthusiasts you can laugh at me in the comment section below i did not know um so for those of you don't know me i'm a gp i'm gp i'm definitely gp i can admit that um i know business and i love the business side of theme parks and i'm a theme park enthusiast not a roller coaster enthusiast so i did not know dragon fire was aro until recently once i learned that it's aro and that aro no longer builds parts and that we're seeing cedar fair kind of discontinue arrows like vortex at king's island um i could definitely see something like dragon fire being removed for for example a mock double launch in medfare if they're to go down that route or they could start the ground up rmc in that area and have its work its way into the go kart section if they maybe don't remove wild beast it could go two different ways um but i definitely think that with it being an aro and um its location it's a key and it uses up so little of the land that it sits on it just makes sense that they would remove dragon fire for a future attraction now the only problem is dragon fire from what i understand has next to no downtime it also um sits in a very important plot of land again it's it's just so many different reasons could go either way of why they wouldn't remove it and why they should remove it again it's an aro but to be honest when i ride it it's not that uncomfortable i hate flight deck way more than i hate dragon fire but i just am hearing rumblings that you know dragon fire is on the top of the list the ridership numbers are declining exponentially on the ride and the park is maybe eyeing that for a future ride removal i want to hear from you guys comment down below what you think is the next coaster to be removed from canada's wonderland
