Logo Description For the type I really wanted to get away from the basic san serif used in the current logo. I went with this super condensed tall round font, to represent the first giant dip of a tall Roller Coaster. I think it complements the mark very well with out over powering it. The main color I went with was to make it a little more family friendly as well as thrill seeking, which are my main descriptors.
