Taking a peek over the fence you can see parts from the old King Chaos ride that ran at Six Flags Great America...

...and the flywheel launch from the Schwarzkopf shuttle loop that also ran at Aztlan Parque Urbano.  I'd love to see Indiana Beach get that coaster up and running.  If it were up to me I'd keep it blue and name it Tidal Wave after the old Schwarzkopf shuttle loop that once ran at Six Flags Great America.

After our rides on the Triple Loop we were off to tackle a ride that is as quirky as Indiana Beach.

Steel Hawg is a "El Loco" coaster from S&S.  About the easiest way to describe this coaster is to call it a wild mouse coaster on crack. The first drop is beyond vertical.  It turns you upside down and leaves you there.  The finale is a downward inline twist before hitting a high banked turn before a ricked pop of airtime as you hit the brakes.  These are great rides for parks with space issues like Indiana Beach.

There were two new coasters for Bond and I on this trip and after adding another Schwarzkopf to our count we headed over to the lake to take the Cyclone for a spin.
