In the next few weeks, the general pubic should find out about Paramount's Carowind's construction plans for '06. I have yet so see any funky orange flags popping up in the park...maybe that's a bad sign.

There are two major theories about what may happen at carowinds for '06. A popular one is the retheming of 'Waterworks;' the park's waterpark, to 'Crocodile Dundee's Boomerang Bay.' Boomerang bay would sport austrailian theming as well as maybe a "Master Blaster" or "Tornado" waterslide.

The second theory is the construction of a new coaster. The ride would be a Premeir Rides launched coaster named "Italian Job: Stunt Track." IJ:ST already exists in one incarnation at Paramount's King's Island and Paramount's Canada's Wonderland. The two clones have primarily been a flop within the coastering community. I think many would be shocked if paramount wasted its money on another one of these unsatisfying coasters.

I personally think that they park is going to be installing 'Boomerang Bay' because we are one of the last paramount parks to do so and the BB rumor has been going around for years. I do not think Carowinds will be recieving IJ:ST because we recieved our last coaster in 2004 and are not due for another one quite yet.
