I feel like if they did add a dive a coaster they would still have alot of extra land to fill. Whatever is installed I really hope it makes an impact like The Vortex did. Vortex and Son of Beast were both beautiful coasters.
-
Something like that I think would fit the bill. I really enjoyed Griffon at BG. I know B&M dives get alot of hate but I think they are fun coasters.

I dont see a need to break records. 200ft or 250ft is all the same in the eyes of the GP. Still massive and intimidating. Just looking at things from the business perspective.

I am really thinking a dive coaster. The dive machines seem to be real crowd pleasers.

I'm wondering how Star Wars is so low with all the hype around it. 2020 was a luckluster year that is for sure. -
Coronavirus Impacting Theme Parks
flightoffear1996 replied to Hawaiian Coasters 325's topic in Kings Island
I actually feel safe when I'm there. Generally not in contact with people for more than a few minutes. Its outdoors and I can keep my distance from others. Places I dont feel safe is indoor close contact. -
Holiday World's Raven Gets Track Work
flightoffear1996 replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
We went last year I believe. Maybe I'm just getting older. It was hot and the dispatch Ike's were 4-6 minutes per train. Kings Island has me spoiled. -
I didn't visit it thanks to the long lines ( I can be impatient) but the food looked good. Hopefully they are able to expand it to have a little better crowd control. What would you think about even a small upcharge over the meal plan.

Holiday World's Raven Gets Track Work
flightoffear1996 replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I bragged to my Wife how awesome holiday world was. I was disappointed when we got there. All the rides were so rough I couldn't wait to get off expect Thunderbird. -
Kings Island for sure and then Kings Domion. These two parks seemed like the most well cared for in the Paramount days. The parks I think started trending downward in 2003-2004 when the I think when the split happened.

The Beach Waterpark is for sale!
flightoffear1996 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Is the park still open? -
I recently bought this book online. Somehow the copy I received was autographed. I have almost finished reading the book and it has been a great read so far! However I left the book on the floor in my Office one time and the dogs ate my Book. Feeling bummed. What are Some Amusement park books that you have read?

Official Iron Gwazi POV
flightoffear1996 replied to ThrillKingsFitzy's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I wasnt a huge Steel Vengeance fan but I don't think this will be better than SV of course it could ride way different than the POV feels. -
I wonder if this related to anticipated surge in cases. I don't see why they couldn't offer Winterfest this year. You are outdoors and mostly covered up anyway.
-
I really liked the helix but I kind of wish it was broken up with some changes in direction. It just a long time spent turning in one direction.

Some floor less trains on mystic could be fun

Coronavirus Impacting Theme Parks
flightoffear1996 replied to Hawaiian Coasters 325's topic in Kings Island
I don't disagree with any of what was said but it gives people a choice at least having a vaccine. We get a flu shots every year and we have never gotten the flu knock on wood. I beleive you still can get it but symtptoms will be more mild. -

Possibly but from what I have been reading and seeing there is a vaccine right around the corner. -
Coronavirus Impacting Theme Parks
flightoffear1996 replied to Hawaiian Coasters 325's topic in Kings Island
I think right now the virus is beyond containing. At this point we are going to have to let it run its course unfourtnaly. Closing down and issue mandates is only delaying getting our normal back. -
I hardly visited Action Zone area of the park this season. If money wast an object I would remove Invertago and install maybe one of those new Premier launching coasters. I think that would make a good coaster in that area. I would like remove Flight Deck put another coaster in its place. Something like a blitz coaster could fit this area well playing with the land. I also think the support coasters are aging fast at Kings Island. Adventure Express, Flight Deck, Invertago, Flight of Fear. The park is in for and exciting next 15-20 years.

A Bittersweet 2020 Season at Kings Island
flightoffear1996 replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
There were actually some surprize changes at the park I really enjoyed and thought were good ideas. Move the line for the blue ice cream down towards the Planet Snoopy entrance sign was a good idea to keep guest off the midway. I hope it stays that way. I also notice only one person taking orders and then 4 or 5 staff members filling cones. The line for the blue ice cream this year moved really fast! I hope that is also here to stay. I also felt that the staff was alot more friendly this year than years past. Hopefully next spring and we can enjoy the park as it once was. -

Do you think the temperature screen will be here to stay?
