  1. https://coasterpedia.net/wiki/Top_Gun_(Flamingo_Land)#:~:text=Top%20Gun%20was%20a%20Flight,in%20Mason%2C%20Ohio%2C%20USA. Funny enough, it was relocated to Flamingo Land as Top Gun and made it another 9 seasons. Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk
  2. Where's your ERT staff? Still in Algebra 2. Come on, people. Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk
  3. https://jobs.cedarfair.com/search-jobs/public relations?orgIds=42509&kt=1 There's a couple marketing/media positions open within the chain for some of you PR "experts" on the forum! Your chance to show off your skills so maybe one day, with a little luck, you too can become Kings Island's PR Director!
  4. Fantastic choice. Really excited for this new edition. Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk
  5. Hard pass on the cameras, just enjoy the ride and assume a proper riding position. This only encourages ignorant guests more who think it's perfectly safe to pull their phones out on rides; it's really becoming an issue. Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk
  6. The Express is always on the right track.
  7. Adventure Port at night! Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk
  8. Shout out to Banshee's crew today who dispatched 49 trains during their Power Hour! Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk
  9. Not to mention the 2018 Cedar Fair RMCs were the first with the much heavier swing-axle trains. Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk
  10. 2963 is the length of Adventure Express. Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk
  11. Station to MCBR MCBR to Safety Safety to Waiting 1 Waiting 1 to Unload Unload to Waiting 2 Waiting 2 to Station Just a guess. Sent from my SM-S918U using Tapatalk
  12. Allowing guests to record while on rides is a slippery slope. There are plenty of videos on YouTube of practically every ride nowadays. No reason to record one yourself. The risk of the equipment not being properly secured is too great to risk from the park's prospective. On top of that, you have guests and "influencers" on social media that spend more time recording their video on the ride rather than sitting in the proper riding position.
  13. Orange seats ended up black anyway, and not by design. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
  14. Racer was retracked by GCI in 2019. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
  15. What in the world does Funtime being the manufacturer of Slingshot have to do with this? It opened in 2002, long before the tower ride in Orlando. On top of that, hasn't it already come out that Icon Park themselves altered the rides restraint/sensor system, not Funtime? Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
  16. Strange. Almost every time I've been on Orion, our train has left the station before the train before us clears the first block on the long brake run. That's also why Orion has the variable speed lift. If you'll notice, the lift goes much faster after the train has cleared that block, just like Beast. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
  17. Yes...first added to Nitro in its second season 20 years ago. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
  18. Not only that, they even converted the wrong number into metric. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
  19. Great journalism from CNN here... https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/beast-wooden-roller-coaster-kings-island-ohio-longer/index.html Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
  20. I got on at about 10:03 and never saw a button. Tried multiple links and refreshed several times. Oh well. Maybe next year.
  21. I didn't know Intamins required spare parts. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
  22. Ever since we acquired Stinger's trains from Dorney, Invertigo has been much better. Never perfect but I always give it one ride when I'm at the park. You also never know how long Invertigo has at the park. I made the mistake of avoiding Vortex in its final seasons when it was still an elite ride. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
  23. Ride wait times were excellent last night. Orion - 5 minutes Racer - Walk-on Adventure Express - Walk-on Banshee - 5 minutes Bat - Walk-on Mystic Timbers - 25 minutes Diamondback - 10 minutes Beast - 30 minutes Invertigo - Walk-on Definitely my most successful coaster riding haunt trip.
