GAcoaster Posted December 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2021 The Big Wheel has been an icon of the park for almost 50 years now, and I know I can't picture GA without it. I previous years we've wished for updated lighting for the Big Wheel which would be cool, but the ride's age may mean it needs to be replaced. If it dose, it would be great to see something new (but in the same spirit) replace it... (minus Hello Kitty of course) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted December 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2021 That being said, I would never ride anything but the stationary cars, but it would be cool to offer something new but true to the original idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Justin Posted December 23, 2021 Report Share Posted December 23, 2021 Hey, Six Flags, Maybe you can get a 2-ride deal and add them to SFGAdv and SFGAm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericthewanderer Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 I would like to see the original wheel stay, but if it gets replaced, how about a larger version with enclosed cabins (and remove the old paintball building too)?

I ridden the moving cars on the Sun Wheel, Mickey's Fun Wheel at DCA. How fast and hard the moving cars move really depends on how the wheel is being loaded.

29yrswithaGApass Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 I think that’s one of the best parts of that ride - each time is different because of the riders and seating making it unpredictable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted January 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 I find a standard Ferris Wheel terrifying (I hate the not moving while load/unloading). The swaying scares me to death. If I could just get on and keep moving the whole time I'd be OK, but the stopped at the top and feeling the wind and motion of the structure is way too scary!
