[edit] Cedar Point's skycoaster

I worked at cedar point's ripcord all summer. Their skycoaster is for sure 152 feet.

[edit] Geauga Lake's Skycoaster

I visited Geauga Lake recently and I can say without a doubt that their skycoaster is NOT 180 feet as listed on the table. I've ridden many Skycoasters, and that one is the smallest I've ever seen. Height reference: Dominator, which is right beside of Skycoaster, is 157 feet tall, which would make their Skycoaster taller than that (if the 180 feet was correct), the Skycoaster is not nearly taller than that. Does anyone have the correct height for it?

When I updated the table, I pulled all the information on heights (which, incidentally, was the hardest piece to find), from various sites on the internet (I would start with the park's wikipedia page, then their official site, then any listed fan sites, and then finally google). The best way to get an official figure would probably be to call the park and ask (or go there and ask)... –Dvandersluis 02:11, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] There's a SkyCoaster missing..

There is a skycoaster at Paramount's Kings Dominion, but I know nothing about it and nothing is listed. It might be worth looking into, and adding to the list. --Anonymouses 04:00, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

I added the Kings Dominion skycoaster. (Coasterman1234 00:52, 16 April 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Six Flags Marine World Skycoaster

I was dissapointed to find that Six Flags Marine World's Skycoaster is only 100 feet, and not 150 as this page says. Could someone change it? See this page: http://www.sixflags.com/parks/marineworld/Rides/list.html#SKYCOASTER

[edit] Picture

Anyone have some skycoaster pictures this article desperately needs some. If no one does, I'll have some soon when I go to Carowinds for opening day. (Coasterman1234 15:17, 10 March 2007 (UTC))

I added a picture of the Kings Dominion Skycoaster (Coasterman1234 00:53, 16 April 2007 (UTC))
