The Interpreter Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 ^...what was the point of that post? A demonstration that failure to quote properly can drive other users nuts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIfan73 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 "Where are Beast, Flight of Fear, and Adventure Express?" Those rides are not visible from "normal" locations within the park, save Beast's lift hills. I decided to exclude him because we need to see more of a coaster than that. Adventure Express is buried in trees and Flight of Fear is INSIDE A BUILDING. That's one thing I love about those rides-mostly The Beast and Adventure Express-the fact that you can't see the ride easily from the queue. I can only imagine how thrilling and suspenseful it was to ride The Beast in its early years. It seems to be an art that's completely lost now.

The Interpreter Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 You certainly can't see much of Son of Beast, other than the massive lift hill, from anywhere in the park except the Eiffel Tower... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIfan73 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 ^Yes, that's true. Good point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philosoraptor Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 The Racer is gorgeous in its vintage. There's just something about the white woodies. Still, looking up at Diamondback towering over the park is a beautiful thing. My vote went to Diamondback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Why am I the only one to vote for Little Bill, come on now guys, that coaster is majestic to say the least. Obviously, I am kidding. I voted for Little Bill but my real vote would go to Vortex. At night the coaster is lit up perfect I think and during the day I would say it is one of the most photographed coasters at Kings Island.

CincyMan98 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Diamondback by far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondback FOF Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 ^...what was the point of that post? I ask myself that about a lot of his posts. He seems to be getting (very slowly, though) better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigacoaster2k Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 My vote goes to Racer. I have a weakness for wooden coasters. As much as I love DB, Racer just has that classic wooden coaster appeal that every amusement park needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thekidd33 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 It's hard to beat the brillant red and yellow of Diamondback. It was refreshing to see that addition to the skyline this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast79 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 I went with DB, if only they could rip down the walls on Flight of Fear since it would be so nice for everyone to be able to see its mess of steel all wrapped up so nicely!

CedarPointer Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Flight of Fear is fairly photogenic, but we should be glad that CF still has most of the theming on ours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plankton Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 I picked BLSC because it is visible but still leaves a little to the imagination. For example, I see fire flames. What is really going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster_junky Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Son of Beast, hands down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dare-to-fly Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Vortex has always been my pick for the most photogenic coaster. Racer would be second if they had kept up with the paint, but as it stands Diamondback and Son of Beast are ahead of it followed by Invertigo and Firehawk. Reptar is a nice choice for a kiddie coaster. Those things said, my favorite coaster sight at Kings Island is still a very special view of The Beast.

mech Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 id have to say DB followed by a close 2nd SoB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTCO Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I chose Diamondback. Now that is what you call art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tycoonrebel7188 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I have to agree with dare-to-fly! If some of you would have seen some of the views he and I have, you would think The Beast is the Best Looking Coaster at Kings Island.
