Hey, Coaster Fanatics! When X-Flight first opened at Geauga Lake in 2001, it had a Light Green Track and Dark Gray Supports. When it moved to Kings Island and became Firehawk, the Track was repainted Red and the Supports were repainted Light Gray. Did you remember that?
I rode Firehawk when it was X-Flight at Six Flags/Geauga Lake and I remembering as a crazy fun coaster. It always seemed to me a precursor to the ‘4th Dimension’ coasters we have today. I hope it gets relocated to Michigan or another park, just not scrapped, but mainly for sentimental reasons. Thanks for the video and keep up the great work!
I think Firehawk is being relocated to Kentucky Kingdom, the teasers they've been putting out points to it. The name of their new ride is called Kentucky flyer and they also posted a tweet saying you'll wanna watch our page like a hawk for our new announcement. Could be wrong but it seems possible
Yeah it is certainly possible. I don't see it though. Why would Kings Island sell the coaster to a park that is so close and direct competition. also this thing is a maintenance nightmare. I think Kentucky Kingdom needs to focus on being more modern. Firehawk will be a step back for that to happen. Still could happen though.
i think it'll get sent to the scrap yard, and i would love to see them use SOB Station for the new Giga, but in all honesty there is not alot of room between The Bat and Banshee to get coaster Track In and out of that area. i hope they can do it tho would be a great re purpose for that station
I am thinking of that Firehawk would go to Kentucky Kingdom. They have announce a new ride called Kentucky Flyer, but they did not say if it is a flat ride or a coaster and may or may not have room. A giga coaster for Kings Island would be great addition.
Also with the reference of outpost 5 in the teaser posters I would assume that the new coaster starts there and goes all the way back. I expect it to break numerous records. I will be at Kings Islands this weekend, Maybe try to get some type of leak or look for something odd going on.
If any coaster at Great America goes, my joy goes as well. All the coasters at Great America are like friends to me. I don’t want anything to leave but something will have to.
Mixed feelings about Flying Dutchmans (I got Batwing at Six Flags America; which in 2018 had a LOT of downtime) It's nice to lay on your back . . . . but on a sunny day, not fun going up the lift hill.
I think they’ll use the SOB station. Their teasers said “Number 5 is alive”. The giga would pass through the back of Firehawk’s land and into the Dino area. Firehawk’s plot is fairly flat and would make a good small midway.
I think it could be themed to the sob but not use the station they would have to do a lot of work on the station for it to be stable enough for a coaster and fit the track they’d probably have to take the roof off to lift the track in but it could still be the cheaper option because there is already a queue line but idk we will have to see but it would be really cool though
Yeah only 3 were ever built im glad I got to ride it while it was still running I still can because Kings island is my home park it’s sad to see it go but if it is replaced by a giga I’m ok with it being removed
As a Kings Island resident I will miss Firehawk But it will be nice to get a giga in Xbase so it can get more "popular" and show it's still expanding Also a giga them to Sob/Firehawk wouldn't be bad Also The giga starting in SoB station would already be a great ride I can tell
That would be cool but there is a permit filed in mason county that has B&M's name on it for kings island. Maybe an Intamin like top fuel dragster and a B&M Giga. Put 2 coasters in. Kings island has a ton of land that they can utilize. While we are at it drop the vortex and put a T-rex and RMC the racer and have GCI create SOB from the ground up
I'm curious as well to see what happens to Firehawk. It's a bit strange because people say it's better than Nighthawk. With only three of them built I'd imagine it's probably a pain to keep them running, although Six Flags does it with Batwing, maybe they'll buy the parts from Firehawk? I've never ridden a Vekoma Flying coaster, only a couple of B&Ms so I have no clue if they're even worth saving. From what I've heard they're not all that great so I hope I'm not missing out on anything.
They aren't that great. You haven't missed much to be honest. I believe all the usable parts will be sent to Carowinds so they can keep nighthawk running good over there. I don't think six flags will get anything out of the deal.
I feel this could give Six Flags America more attention from enthusiasts because Batwing is the only *good* Flying Dutchman left. I would love to see it relocated to any park tbh lol.
Yeah should be interesting to see what happens. If it gets scrapped it would be smart for Six flags to buy some spare parts. Of course all the usable stuff could go to Carowinds for nighthawk.
I'm curious where you guys are getting your information about the relocation of this coaster. I'm from Cincinnati and our local news is reporting that Firehawk is opening next season as Kentucky flyer at Kentucky kingdom.
From what I hear that is just a rumor at this point. No confirmation which is why it wasn't featured in the video. Plus I don't see kings Island selling a coaster to the direct competition.
Good video! It would make more sense to remove Firehawk instead of Vortex, because of its location and Vortex is a more iconic attraction to the park. And as for Firehawk, I think it will most likely be scrapped.
My prediction/what I’d like to see Height:340-350 Drop:325-335 Speed:98-100 Length 7,200 Manufacture:B&M Name: Centurion (Because cedar fair has it trademarked but still hasn’t used it other than to tease)
Am going to be going to Cedar Point nxt year. I've seen videos of the coasters there and they seem great! But I have a good question. Have you been there and If you have which coasters do you prefer?
Oh course I have. Steel vengeance, millennium force, maverick, and top thrill dragster are the best coasters there. I have tons of CP videos on the channel. Check them out.
I'd be okay with a giga, just not crazy about it being a B&M. I think at Carowinds, after the initial drop Fury and Intimidator offer too similar of a ride experience. I haven'''t ridden Leviathan but I think at Canada's Wonderland many actually prefer Behemoth. According to B&M they are the same ride type after all. I'd like to see if Chance rides could incorporate some of what we see with Lightning Run into a former Morgan style Giga. I guess, think Steel Dragon 2000 with better transitions, and wave turns with airtime. I'd like to see what they come up with in this more modern era.
Firehawk will be relocated to Kentucky kingdome. They need a ride that is under 200 feet because of the airport and firehawk fits under that height and rumor is Kentucky kingdom is paying for the tear down and relocation
CoasterFanatics I could see them selling the ride as it brings huge cash flow in while saving$$ on tear down and removal and they don't have a park in kuntucky or Tennessee so competing is not a worry of theirs, KI and CP are the top parks in the mid West ...and boy does kuntucky kingdom desperately need new rides...
I would love to see an RMC T-Rex at this park! B&M Gigas are overrated in my opinion, and Kings Island really needs a coaster worthy of being top 10 in the world.
Adrenaline Rush ummmmm fury is top 2 or 1 in the whole world already by many and if KI got something similar or better we could very well have the 2nd best coaster on eart.
The Ride Analyst Channel I respect your opinion, but Fury is definitely NOT top 2 in the world, in fact, probably not even top 20 in the world. There are so many coasters I’d rather ride. Steel Vengeance, El Toro, Lightning Rod, Twisted Timbers, I305, Magnum XL 200 (Yes, I’m serious), Karnan, Wildfire, DC Rivals, Hyperion, T Express, Helix, RMC Raptors, Twisted Colossus, X2, Skyrush, I can keep going. Fury is good but by no means the best coaster ever built. That title goes to Steel Vengeance 1000%.
Adrenaline Rush I agree with you. Fury is a great ride, but nowhere near the best. However, it has great universal appeal, because it has a little bit of intensity without going "too far". I305 is clearly better for me, because of it's great intensity, but many people (even many enthusiasts) don't like it to be that intense. Fury had a terrible B&M rattle when I was there. I don't know if that's common, but it did take away from the ride for me. Even if it were smooth, I still wouldn't think of it as among the best in the world, but it's still great. If KI does get a B&M giga, I hope they finally fix that rattle problem. But yeah, I would be far more excited for the T-Rex.
Kings Island is way overdue for a GIGA in 2000 we opened SOB and CP opened their WR GIGA as KI went with the record setting SOB we missed the chance of the GIGA I do not think we miss the next chance to get one, and now is that chance. As far as Firechicken is concerned, I think it gets scrapped.
Bob Roberts 1994-raptor then 2014-banshee 1989-magnum xl 200 then 2009-Diamondback 2000-millenium force then 2020-ki giga. It all will happen 20 years after cedar point
I think Kings Island is doing the right thing because these vekoma flying dutchman rides have horrible maintenance like batwing at SFA was closed all season because of maintenance problems
You heard that a few days ago, Kings Island teased that they would be removing one of their current roller coasters, Vortex or Firehawk. Vortex was extremely rough so it would be on the chopping block. However, Kings Island decided to announce that Firehawk will be shutting down on October 28.
I agree with everything you said. However, I think that the Giga will be more around 2024 or something. This is because with Cedar Points aneversary coming up I don't think they will build something like that so close to take away from Cedar Point that year.
That's what I was originally thinking as well. But they can't just keep closing attractions and not build anything else. They've already closed firehawk and dinosaurs alive now. I just feel 2020 is the year for both parks which is odd because i originally didn't feel they would set it up that way.
Zachary Stewart what coasters did they remove and kings island isn’t kings dominion they remove attractions a year or two before they get another if they need to remove anything Kings island gets more attention in the coasters department
Thanks for keeping us in the dude! I’ve only just been to Cedar Point, but Kings Island is deff on the list. I think this removal could be for that possible Son Of Beast reboot. It makes sense in my mind.
Why not a flying giga coaster?? I mean that's been the problem with these flyers is they're too slow, so add the height and speed of millennium force....Best ride ever
A little disappointed to see it go. It was my introduction to flying coasters when I rode it at geagua lake as xflight. Excited to see what kings island brings for the future.
I told Firehawk not to go in the shed but guess what it did: IT WENT IN THE SHED. Now I have to go all the way through those steep inclines, through the forest, and next to that haunted church to bury it. RIP
I think the coaster station will be where firehawk once stood and make its way through the dinosaurs alive area. The coaster could also go through the son of Beast area, turn around, and head back to the station. If the station will be built where firehawk stood, it will most likely be steel, not wood. The theming for that area of the park is more intense and forceful (think Flight of Fear). Personally I think it will be a giga themed to action or excitement.
I want to see Firehawk move to Michigan's Adventure. It will remain in its colors. It will be by Shivering Timbers! The name will be Screeching Falcon. It will open next year. The mechanical problems are not bad.
The Ride Analyst Channel yeah that makes sense but I do see invertigo going next probably a couple more years but it’s definitely next imo since it’s also a vekoma
Thad Barkett Blue Hawk is not that bad at all. But when it was originally Ninja with the original vekoma trains, that’s when it was a thrash and smash.
Hey, Coaster Fanatics! There Is A Similar Coaster At Six Flags America! It Is Called Batwing And Is Based On Batman!
Hey, Coaster Fanatics! When X-Flight first opened at Geauga Lake in 2001, it had a Light Green Track and Dark Gray Supports. When it moved to Kings Island and became Firehawk, the Track was repainted Red and the Supports were repainted Light Gray. Did you remember that?

Thank you very much. Yeah we will have to wait and see what happens now.
I think Firehawk is being relocated to Kentucky Kingdom, the teasers they've been putting out points to it. The name of their new ride is called Kentucky flyer and they also posted a tweet saying you'll wanna watch our page like a hawk for our new announcement. Could be wrong but it seems possible

I think Kentucky Kingdom needs to focus on being more modern. Firehawk will be a step back for that to happen. Still could happen though.
Batwing, the same Verona lie to fly has always had tons of maintenance issues.
Yeah I heard it's been down like all year.
i think it'll get sent to the scrap yard, and i would love to see them use SOB Station for the new Giga, but in all honesty there is not alot of room between The Bat and Banshee to get coaster Track In and out of that area. i hope they can do it tho would be a great re purpose for that station
Yeah it will be interesting to see what happens.
I am thinking of that Firehawk would go to Kentucky Kingdom. They have announce a new ride called Kentucky Flyer, but they did not say if it is a flat ride or a coaster and may or may not have room. A giga coaster for Kings Island would be great addition.
Yeah I don't know where Kentucky kingdom would put it if that's true.
Hey, Coaster Fanatics! I Heard That Firehawk Is Going To Be Scrapped!
lol, it is. They are knocking it down as we speak.
RIP firehawk😭
Also with the reference of outpost 5 in the teaser posters I would assume that the new coaster starts there and goes all the way back. I expect it to break numerous records. I will be at Kings Islands this weekend, Maybe try to get some type of leak or look for something odd going on.
I agree. Nice. Have a great time and good luck!
I will miss Firehawk but I look forward to what is coming next.
Me too. It's a sad day when any coaster dies but big things are coming soon.
If any coaster at Great America goes, my joy goes as well. All the coasters at Great America are like friends to me.
I don’t want anything to leave but something will have to.
RIP the best Flying Dutchman 🙏🏼
True that, although I haven't tried batwing yet.
CoasterFanatics I’ve heard firehawk is smoother
Mixed feelings about Flying Dutchmans (I got Batwing at Six Flags America; which in 2018 had a LOT of downtime)
It's nice to lay on your back . . . . but on a sunny day, not fun going up the lift hill.
Yeah I hate going up the lift on these things too.
Well, I guess there's more attraction towards an Arrow Looper (Vortex) or an Inverted Boomerang (Invertigo) than a Vekoma Flying Dutchman.
Honestly I don't think there is. I believe this was a maintenance move and a start to something big in 2020.
After Firehawk closes, there will be only one Flying Dutchman with this layout. And that's Batwing at Six Flags America.
true that!
I think they’ll use the SOB station. Their teasers said “Number 5 is alive”. The giga would pass through the back of Firehawk’s land and into the Dino area. Firehawk’s plot is fairly flat and would make a good small midway.
Yeah I feel the same way. I'm on the SOB station bandwagon.
I think it could be themed to the sob but not use the station they would have to do a lot of work on the station for it to be stable enough for a coaster and fit the track they’d probably have to take the roof off to lift the track in but it could still be the cheaper option because there is already a queue line but idk we will have to see but it would be really cool though
I know it's unlikely but I hope this gets either relocated or sold, as vekoma flying Dutchman are a rare coaster type
True that. I heard that Batwing at six flags america is the exact same coaster actually.
Yeah only 3 were ever built im glad I got to ride it while it was still running I still can because Kings island is my home park it’s sad to see it go but if it is replaced by a giga I’m ok with it being removed
Vekoma Dutchman’s are equal to a fake gold. Decent rides, maintenance disasters.
As a Kings Island resident I will miss Firehawk
But it will be nice to get a giga in Xbase so it can get more "popular" and show it's still expanding
Also a giga them to Sob/Firehawk wouldn't be bad
Also The giga starting in SoB station would already be a great ride I can tell
True that. we will just have to wait and see what happens at this point.
Height: 330 ft
Drop: 323 ft
Angle of Descent: 83
Speed: 97 mph
Length: 6,650 ft
Manufacturer: Intamin
That would be cool but there is a permit filed in mason county that has B&M's name on it for kings island. Maybe an Intamin like top fuel dragster and a B&M Giga. Put 2 coasters in. Kings island has a ton of land that they can utilize. While we are at it drop the vortex and put a T-rex and RMC the racer and have GCI create SOB from the ground up
Those are all great Ideas.
I just love how kings Island and kings dominion could both have gigas next to flight of fear
That would be awesome and I think it will happen.
I'm curious as well to see what happens to Firehawk. It's a bit strange because people say it's better than Nighthawk. With only three of them built I'd imagine it's probably a pain to keep them running, although Six Flags does it with Batwing, maybe they'll buy the parts from Firehawk?

Firehawk will be scrap metal
I'm sad that its closing. That is a good ride and the hawk logo is just amazing
Yeah I do love that logo as well.
I feel this could give Six Flags America more attention from enthusiasts because Batwing is the only *good* Flying Dutchman left. I would love to see it relocated to any park tbh lol.

Good video! It would make more sense to remove Firehawk instead of Vortex, because of its location and Vortex is a more iconic attraction to the park. And as for Firehawk, I think it will most likely be scrapped.
@Nick Allen nooo it needs to be relocated to Michigan's adventure, there are only 3 vokoma flying Dutchman rollercoasters left
Thanks,
Quinton Parchment there’s actually only ever been 3 of them which is kinda sad because they are great rides they just don’t last long
@@joeykelly0157 I know

I think it’s funny that they named their own ride son of beast, like as if they knew it was going to be bad or something XD
lol maybe they did.
"It’s like a rude name....but it’s pretending to not be..." -JazzaStudios 2018
kings isand has lots of area or land for xpantion
Thad Barkett yeah but X-Base is a perfect location and firehawk is the perfect spot in X-base to put the station and line
That's true. They could have expanded bu for whatever reason they seem to be choosing the X base area instead.
I'd be okay with a giga, just not crazy about it being a B&M. I think at Carowinds, after the initial drop Fury and Intimidator offer too similar of a ride experience.

So no more smeeyashing the like buddin?
lol I will still say it from time to time.
There's a shame. Another good Vekoma bites the dust
At least we still have batwing and nighthawk except batwing hasn't ran like all year from what I heard.

Good info did not think of it
Smooth_concrete. I know CP is the flagship but in 2000 CP had no affiliation with KI as Paramount still owned KI.
That's great research. I didn't notice that connection with the 20 year gap with all those coasters, That's very interesting.
I think Kings Island is doing the right thing because these vekoma flying dutchman rides have horrible maintenance like batwing at SFA was closed all season because of maintenance problems

really wanted to ride firehawk :(
AckReik The Greatest it’s still open you know
Yeah it's still open till the 28th and if you can't make it you can always ride batwing at six flags america although it has bad maintenance issues.
@Keith Young Well okay then, lmao
Looks like it’s gonna be scrapped sadly
I feel the same way.
Firehawk is probably just going to be scrapped, all I know is that a giga coaster would be awesome.
No it should be relocated to Michigan's adventure
@@ArrowThrills they didn't bother to move Stinger, another vekoma coaster, so why should they move Firehawk?
@@liambrake because there are only 3 vokoma flying Dutchman rollercoasters around
@@ArrowThrills well there were only two Vekoma invertigo models at the time, less than the flying Dutchmans bud.
True that, That's why I also am leaning towards it being scrapped.
A little disappointed to see it go. It was my introduction to flying coasters when I rode it at geagua lake as xflight. Excited to see what kings island brings for the future.
Nice, Yeah should be interesting to see what happens next.
If Firehawk can stay, then the Giga will be in the Dinosaurs Alive Location. The layout will go around Firehawk and Banshee and back.
I told Firehawk not to go in the shed but guess what it did: IT WENT IN THE SHED. Now I have to go all the way through those steep inclines, through the forest, and next to that haunted church to bury it. RIP
lol, well said.
I think the coaster station will be where firehawk once stood and make its way through the dinosaurs alive area.

Interesting theory. We will see if you're right.
I want to see Firehawk move to Michigan's Adventure. It will remain in its colors. It will be by Shivering Timbers! The name will be Screeching Falcon. It will open next year. The mechanical problems are not bad.
That could happen.
I thought it was going to be Invertigo because you know Cedar Fair has been assassinating boomerangs recently.
Rainbow Coasters yeah, but they got rid of stinger to use it’s parts for invertigo, and then they’ll use parts from firehawk to support nighthawk
That's exactly what I was thinking. It's a great strategy actually.
The Ride Analyst Channel yeah that makes sense but I do see invertigo going next probably a couple more years but it’s definitely next imo since it’s also a vekoma
Knott’s Boomerang is actually currently in storage in the Netherlands.
You know, Firehawk is located towards the back of the park to the right of Flight Of Fear.
true!
Invertigo should have been removed
Maybe someday.
replace bluehawk 6 flags ga with it id lice ut or a giga we r gettin a pendulum n im xcited fer thet but ga needs a giga or new coaster
Thad Barkett Blue Hawk is not that bad at all. But when it was originally Ninja with the original vekoma trains, that’s when it was a thrash and smash.
