Like other commentors mentioned the loop and launch system are gone. The trains are at a museum, so it's pretty much over. The owners of Cliff's amusement park in NM had one in storage for a long time but I heard that one is gone. Gene Staples has one for the Niagara Amusement Park but I don't know much more than that. If nothing else I'm sure Premier could do a custom Skyrocket 2, they did Speed the ride at Sahara which was basically a giant Monte without a back spike.

Sky rocket II or a vekoma super boomerang could work for sure.

Speed would be an awesome fit. That coaster was awesome as well. Rode it many times while visiting Las Vegas back in the day.

Knott's is my home park. Despite the "love" for this coaster, the lines were usually minimal. I think Knott's will replace it with something that brings in more attention.

Sorry to say is that it is all rusted out and the loop was dismantled . So there is a lawsuit against the constitution co. and now since the new refurbished Camp Snoopy is expanding for the train and new rides in that area. The thing is that Cedar Fair can't do anything at this time about Monte because of the legal problems.

Thanks for the update. If this truly is the end, which is 99.9% guaranteed, this might go down as one of the most tragic ride closers ever. Everyone getting hyped for the revamp, only to never be able to ride it again.

🐉 If Monte is not coming back, can Knott's replace it with a Vekoma "Super" Boomerang "Cloud" Coaster. That would be a great replacement. It would fit the Monte footprint perfectly and would pay mad respect to the classic beast. This is a new "SUPER" Boomerang "CLOUD" Coaster, not the old Boomerang they once had. RIP Monte. 🐲

If this can't be saved, then I say use the space to build a Montazooma themed ride, with multiple levels. At the end of the ride, it can go to the bottom and have a new launch and new loop. A dark ride mixed wirh the original idea. Probably a reach, but wth? 😂
@CoasterSquabble4 ай бұрын
I see where you are going with this, and I like the idea. Even a skyrocket II, vekoma super boomerang, or another cool ride could definitely be themed like crazy. Even though Knott’s let us all down, their replacement for Montezooma could 100% make up for it.
@assemblyrequired73423 ай бұрын
If Montezuma's Revenge is beyond repair, I think that the ride should be replaced with a similar ride, but more modern, including a modern reproduction of the iconic loop. Actually, why not make it a double this time? Maybe even like the Moonsault Scramble, if we're allowed to dream. As if to say "Montezuma is back, and this time, he's PISSED!" But since Schwarzkopf went bankrupt so long ago, what company could ever fill those shoes? Either way, I feel that this is a ride whose legacy deserved honor and dignity.

The loop is destroyed. I think you take a piece if the track and post it in that area as a monument to what was. This preserves that history. Then remove the entire coaster and replace it with a new coaster as a spiritual successor.

I’d love for them to do that, now that Monte is basically done for good.

2 other ideas I have are: 1) tear out the ride and expand camp snoopy by building a show building with a Sierra Nevada mountain range facade that houses a dark ride. 2) tear it down, also tear down jaguar and replace both with a new mid level multi launch coaster to anchor the fiesta village land.
