calakapepe Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I wouldn't pursue that career because media days allows some reporters to ride first.The chances of being those reporters are slim, being on a news station that is covering a ride that you would even like to cover is slim, and being that particular reporter to ride is again... slim. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedevariouseffect Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Of course he was he wants to be a weatherman, show em the video But yes, we won't get front row or other seats, but at least you get to be apart of a coaster crew to come in and ride the ride(s). If I get a shot to ride The Bat for awhile, oh I'll marathon the hell out of it. Such a fantastic Arrow Suspended. But on other terms guys just respect the parks demands, they wanna be the ones showing off their product to the media and guests selling a good first impression, let them do that. I know they didn't give a motive, but it's simply that and makes sense. Let it be for now. Trust me I want to show and post my photos & video here from testing the last few weeks as well from the few times I've gone down. However, in due time. I'm just as excited to show this off and get involved with it like you guys are. Just be patient, he'll let us know when we can post all of our stuff to our hearts desire. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kat Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I don't at all trust Accuweather extended forecast but just for fun I decided to look up the weather prediction for Mason, OH for Media Day and opening day. Fascinating.

malem Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 ^^^ Forecasts more than a few days out are worth very little. At three weeks out, they're just guessing based on long-term averages and/or seasonal forecasts.

TheBEASTunchained Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 It looks like queue construction is underway this morning at the Banshee site. A cement mixer is under the lift hill where the queue line is supposed to be placed and it also looks like there is another near the brake run.

steveinphoenix Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Yes, I myself had just noticed the other day about the MAXIMUM ride height of 78". I myself am 76". it will probably be first time in my life I may hunch down a little to NOT go over the ride height line....haha 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gplez90 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 ^^Im 76" too but it think we'll be good. Im more worried about losing my lower legs where the ride bottoms out! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kat Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 At only 63 inches tall I don't have to worry about my feet scraping the ground on coasters lol though I do curl my legs in on Flying Ace Aerial Chase because it seems like my legs will hit otherwise lol but what do you expect being an adult riding a kiddie coaster?
