| | The gifts have been unwrapped and have lost their allure; the tree is out by the curb sporting stray strands of tinsel and looking forlorn; the champagne bottle is in the recycle bin waiting to be carted away. The holidays are over, 2010 is history, and the loooong, dormant offseason is enough to make a cabin-fevered park fan scream at the sky. Is that what's troubling you, friend? Well, hang in there, because 2011 promises to be a fun-filled year at the parks as evidenced by all of the great new stuff in the Ride Guide 2011. | | Ride Guide 2011- Under the Sea to 300 Feet Up Instead of screaming at the sky, you'll be able to soar high above the midway on SkyScreamer. Why, you'll be able to board a clammobile car to visit Ariel and her underwater buddies on The Little Mermaid Ride. You'll even be able to blast out of this world and encounter Darth Vader on Tatoonie. There will be new coasters, new water park rides, new shows--heck, even new parks. There, I'll bet you're feeling better already, aren't you? Check out all of the goodies that await you in About.com's Ride Guide 2011. | 2011 Coaster Countdown. Take the Poll. There'll be plenty of great new coasters to ride this year, including two Euro Fighter diving coasters, a new woodie, an old woodie with a new steel track overlay, a ZacSpin model, and a launched LSM ride to name a few. Heck, this could even be the year that Flying Turns, the retro bobsled-like wooden chute coaster that Knoebel's has been building for years, will finally open. If you're not up on what's going down in the world of thrill machines, go posthaste to the Roller Coaster Guide 2011. After you've taken a gander at all of the new coaster goodies on tap, is there one ride that particularly calls out to you? Take the poll and let us know which new coaster you can't wait to ride. | Speaking of Polls...
