Thanks, I'm gonna be heading there after my trip to Silver Dollar City, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Planet Snoop? Neap PEANUTS Showcase Theater? What the heck! Did Snoop Dogg come in and take over Carowinds?

One thing I want eventually is for Kings Island to STOP boxing themselves in! They had PLENTY of room in Action Zone to allow them to expand outwards, but they put Banshee right in that area. I love Banshee and all, but I can only think of 2 areas to truly expand.

I may have to pick one up, looks very sharp!

Looks great, but as others said before me, maintenance nightmare. -

Ugh. Do not let me down Hart. -
Speaking of this, do you guys know where I can purchase some actual, coaster related posters? I tried looking for them last year in the fall before that night's Haunt kicked in, but to no avail.

So are we pretty sure KK will re-open next year because I want to go, but I've already been to Holiday World and CP so I'm kinda stuck with going to KI because my beautiful pass of artificial, plastic gold unless a friend invites me. If there is a large chance of it not making it, I can save up some money somehow. -
I'm thinking we will get our coaster in 2017 or 18, not 2016.

Local Minister Rides Roller Coaster 12,000 Times

What coaster is that, kinda looks like Corkscrews first v-loop, but thats just me. -
"Woah! That Intimidator 305 looks 400 feet tall!" Edit: This was from a POV in line at Cedar Point

I'm not going until A. Twisted Twins renovation gets noticeably started or B. T3 opens. and by noticeable, I don't mean just a few sections of track ripped up -
Anyone else have an issue with Firehawk's restraints?
CoasterDirected replied to Pepsi's topic in Kings Island
Me being a smaller build (tall, skinny, super metabolism) I find them very comfy, however I also find Banshee and Gatekeeper's restraints comfy, and a little tight on the brake run. I like FH to be a little loose so I'm not all the way on the seat and dangling from the restraints (so fun yet terrifying) but that is just me. -
I don't think I want Bugs Bunny trying to force Snickers down my throat while riding Diamondback....
-
Trust me, I was 6-7 when I made that mistake, along with my dad and sister convincing me it was Adventure Express.

Nah, I think it's Disney Point, and then all other parks in the chain are named after a Disney property. (Treasure Island/KI, Lion Kings Dominion)
-
Oh yeah, and I would much rather have the KI Giga (if and when it comes) to be an Intamin Giga, I just feel that Behemoth and (slightly) F325 are glorified Hyper Coasters
-
Ok, thank you, I thought it was that but I did not want to say that with no proof.

Sorry to everyone who wants a boat based dark ride, I just don't see it happening. That would be really expensive to remake the troughs for the boats to go through. Plus it would most definitely not fit in the current ride space, meaning they would be forced to go into the theater, haunt area, and backstage. Plus you got to think, this is an industry, profit must be gained. The more profit, the better. It would be much cheaper for them to use what they have.

So we all know how buddy-buddy Intamin and Cedar Fair were until 09-10, but that obviously fell apart. With things such as low reliability and the whole "Shoot The Rapids incident", how long do you believe that CF will go without doing large business deals with Intamin? What do they need to change to have CF hire them for manufacturing for their parks? My opinion, if the whole PolerCoaster idea becomes an actual success (both functional and popular), Cedar Fair may have a change of heart. (Yes, I know S and S makes the roller coaster part)

I'm actually really excited to go on this and Magnum XL-200, just behind Maverick and Millennium Force.
