    AMEN!  That coaster was insanely awesome.  EXTREMELY fun ejector air.  I rate it up there with Phoenix at Knoebels as best airtime I've ever gotten on a wooden coaster.   Heck - the last seat of the train had a high back to prevent people from flying out the back of the car. 

    I am so glad I got to ride Screechin Eagle many times.  There will never, ever, be another coaster built like it - with that kind of out of your seat euphoria.  I will always miss it.

    I was fortunate enough to ride screechin’ eagle a few times as a kid. Best ride at Americana, hands down.

    Definitely. What amazes me though with how much everyone has been watching the webcams, how on earth did those cars get loaded onto the storage track without anyone catching it?

    Come on you guys. You had one job to do.

    As a seasoned amusement park visitor 25 plus visits every year of my 32 year life I have learned travel light. 

    Yes

     

    never, ever bring a bag to an amusement park. That is what cargo shorts were invented for in 1967.

    I don’t think it’s always bad:

    The Beast

    The Bat

    The Vortex

    ...but some make it sound sound like English isn’t your first language

    The Banshee 

    The Son of Beast

    The Orion

    The Invertigo 

    My physician has diagnosed me with “the Invertigo.”

  5. ^agreed. KI needs to continue the trend of theming that started with MT. Cedar Fair has historically not themed anything at all, and I think it adds a lot to the experience of the ride when the park at least tries to add a little something.

    Woah woah woah. take a trip to darien lake. Watch the laser light show. You wont still want that over fireworks. The firework show is Iconic at Kings Island. Iconic. I dont care how boring or routine but its a major part.

    Agreed. I saw Cedar Point’s laser show once. Granted, it was probably 1998 and things have changed since then, but I wasn’t impressed. If you aren’t a fan of the song “everybody dance now,” you probably wouldn’t have liked it much either.

    They could still do an above ground tunnel like Leviathan. In fact we should try to make it happen. 

    I would enclose the lift hill like Hulk. Then when you emerge for the first drop, you’re like “Holy hell we’re up high!” They could add some space-themed lighting in there and dramatic music, with the voice-over guy from FOF saying something like “follow our path across the cosmos”

    I'll make a deal. You all get your Area 72 restrooms and I get Rivertown restrooms. Preferably in the vicinity of Potato Works. Or when they renovate The Crypt, put them in there.

    I’m fairly certain there is a restroom across from the rivertown larosa’s

    Man that is so short...…..Why in gods green earth would they build a coaster that short? I know we prob have went over this but so small.

    Most places include the lift hill and brake run in the total ride time, which makes them sound longer

    In other news, I got the chance to experience Leviathan today. It is ABSOLUTELY wonderful. Never did I think to compare it to fury on an element by element basis.. for example, when you are screaming down that drop, I’m not griping how it’s only 306 ft instead of 325 ft! I’m having a heck of a time! I am confident that this new coaster, not only will be better then Leviathan, but it will be one of the best rides in the world. I have no doubt in the next 5 years it will be in the top 5-10 on Amusement Today’s Golden Ticket awards Steel coaster list. 

    Get ready KI fam! We are getting a wild ride! 

    I’m sad that I visited CW in 2011 before Levi was built. I need to get back to Toronto!
