TJ dont panic my friend...
Rides such as the Zipper, Trabant, swingers,
your gonna be seeing for a long time even with more
upgrades and some shows will be adding the newer led light
shows ..
how ever sky divers might be the ride to fade away alot sooner.
due to the fact of the setup time and finding parts for it.
I wouldnt be surprised if a copy cat version of the diver
comes available if someone is willing to monkey with the idea.
Heres an excuse the builder can use... we will sell you this new
version of the sky diver with the LED lighting package for $500,000
of course no show might buy it for that price how ever if they design
it to a one trailer ride and make it less setup and tear down time
you never know.
Im all for classics also TJ, i always think the show looks really good
with the classics and the newer equipment mixed into the lot. Because to be
honest not every kid wants to go super fast or upside down and inside out.
so some of the classic less intense rides i would also like to see stay around
on the midway.
