Medusa refurbishment in Six Flags Great Adventure is enough but this?! A B&M DIVE MACHINE OPENING IN SIX FLAGS GREAT AMERICA?! Oh my! It is still a rumor however. If it happens it should take the space of where the Deja Vu roller coaster and Splashwater Falls once were. They both closed on 2007. Here is how it should go:
Theme: Green Lanturn
Ride name: "Green Lanturn: The Ride"
Type: Steel/Floorless/Dive Coaster
Track color: Green
Manufacturer: Bolliger & Mabillard
Harness color: Green
Back rest: Black
Park: Six Flags Great America
Park section: County Fair
Summary: You leave the station in a 180 degree turn to the right followed by a 210 ft. lift hill in a 45 degree angle. You turn to the right again and enter the holding brakes and you get hanged, and after 5 seconds, you drop 90 degrees from 210 ft below a bridge leading to the entrance of the ride. Instead of an Immelmann (like SheiKra, Griffon, and Vertical Coaster), you go through a cobra roll over the turn before the lift (making this the first dive machine to have an inversion other than the Immelmann). After exiting the cobra roll, you make a turn going back up 45 degrees to the right followed by a block brake 149 ft. above ground level. You then drop 149 ft. in a 85 degree angle under the walkway which is currently between what used to be the Deja Vu coaster and Splashwater Falls water ride. You exit the tunnel in an overbanked turn leading to the splash down (on the lake of what used to be Splashwater Falls). Then comes a bunny hop leading to the Immelmann and a diving helix (like Manta, except not flying) thus ending the ride.
P.S.: The station, maintenance building, track before tunnel, and track after the splash down should be on the former Deja Vu site.
P.S.S.: If this happens it will be America's first non-Busch dive machine.
P.S.S.S.: I don't really think this will happen, because in Deja Vu's old site, they're building Buccaneer Battle (opening this year for those of you who don't know). I'm not sure what will become of Splashwater Falls, but according to Screamscape, the Go-Carts attraction will move for expansion of Hurricane Harbor. I hope not, because the Splashwater Falls site being abandoned might bring a bit of hope for Green Lanturn: The Ride's splash down.
