"New."

It's good to see another Astroworld ride operating again but it still seems like a strange move when you have a superior invert already in the park.

^^It seems every park labels a moved coaster as "new', we should expect this by now. I take excpetion with the fact that they mention their stupid facebook contest that Le Monstre won. The fact that LeMonstre won should be considered an absolute embarrassment to Six Flags.

At least it is official now. I wonder what is going to happen to the Batman clone now or is the park just going to keep it?

Personally, I've had no problems with SLCs, but that's just me. I've always wondered why Vekoma just couldn't call their version of an inverted, "inverted." Off-topic, looking at that map, I wonder if you can get anything to eat at "Entrée Village?" Eric

Guys, seriously... Think about it from a GP perspective; the rides look totally different. 2 vs. 4 across, very different looking layout, and guess what, A DIFFERENT COLOR! That's pretty much all it takes to fool most people! (Especially French Canadians!!!)

^^Perhaps Great Escape can not get municipality approval for the installation. Perhaps Six Flags wants to keep the unique charm of Great Escape and not install another coaster with inversions. There could be many reasons.

^Yeah, if a ride's still usable, why not move it to a different park?

Not to mention, path-wise, the two coasters will be about as far away from each other as you can get at La Ronde... I remember how long of a walk it was to get from Vampire to Goliath. It looks like a short walk, but it's really round-about.

What doesn't make sense is why didn't they just install it at the Great Escape since they have no inverted coaster rather than add it to La Ronde.
