It's definitively a terrain hugger for sure. The Boss though is synonymous with Six Flags St. Louis, so it would be like American Eagle leaving Great America.

^I disagree with that. I think that Mr. Freeze, Colossus, and Screamin Eagle are more reflected as that park than the Boss. They made the Boss because wooden coasters are cheaper, and that's what the park got. The Boss is the same realm in my opinion as the OLD Texas Giant, and Mean Streak.

And just as smooth. I hope it gets topper track. Rode in 04 and it was bad.

The one thing that I guess sort of bugs me is that for instance someone might say why is SFStL getting a boomerang when Worlds of Fun already has one for a number of years. It's probably a bad example because a lot of enthusiasts especially hate regular boomerangs, but for me I have no reason to travel to World's of Fun. I just don't see it, and thus SFStL getting a boomerang means I get to go on a boomerang at SFStL. Another way I could say it, is if I believe that the boomerang is the only good ride at World's of Fun (Prowler might be good), than to me 2 rides isn't worth the admission at World's of Fun, so I am glad SFStL is getting a boomerang. Honestly, I really am glad SFStL is getting a boomerang, but I wish they would have gotten an Invertigo instead because that's even better than the regular boomerang. I wouldn't expect them to buy another GIB anytime soon.

If you really think about it though, wouldn't it have made more sense to move the older SFNE Boomerang because they now have 2 (one GIB & one regular). That's very confusing to me. :roll: I guess that would make too much sense.

Poor, poor SF STL. I'd rather have Tidal Wave than a crappy boomerang.
