  1. That civil war tower I climbed the stairs all the way up that last August. It was a pain in the butt, but i think it is the same height as the ET @ KI.
  2. Meh, I am sorry but its hard to get excited about a water slide that more than likely you will have to push your-self down when we have Diamondback coming to Kings Island.
  3. Thats the coolest most rare youtube video ever.
  4. Man that fog shot is so freaking cool. I wish someone was able to get that from a real camera though. Heck jus tthink about your first ride in dense fog like that.
  5. I likt that video and all but why would you take it from that angle? Thanks for the video though. Was that the train I hear running in the background? THe park is starting to come alive again!
  6. I have been to Cedar Point in May on a weekday and it was hardly anything but walk ons. THe park was packed with teens visiting some how or another. I guess when CP closed the school close? I read how great of a time May is but it was so windy and rainy most of the rides were closed and the rides had lots of down time since it was still in the begining of the season. Crews seemed to be poor stacking on ever single ride and most rides a full line. THe line for Raptor was 1:40 minutes long. The entire line was filled up. I did get some rides in on the ERT since teh school kids weren't there yet. Honsetly I have a better time in early June late August at the pont.
  7. ^ Taking POV on any roller coaster at Kings Island prohbitted. I hope know one will risk others safety by doing so.
  8. It does look pretty fun but I would be more excited if the drop was a little bit steeper. Is this going to have restraints or just be like one of them hop on rides? I hear the El Toro has more airtime that Voyage but I couldn't say. Sadly I never experinced either of them
  9. No park is ever complete. I would like to take a trip to Holiday World but it seems most of my friends don't want to drive 3 hours for only 3 coasters. They don't seem to understand they are some of the best three coasters in the country. Oh well hopefully I can get to Dollywood this month. I think it opens up in like two weeks.
  10. The lift motor burned out. No, I don't know why its stuck but who cares right now really. It only been running for two weeks so I am sure there are kinks in the ride.
  11. Heck I dont know probaly a plane ride to flordia. It was like 2 hours and 15 minutes.
  12. I thought I remember reading someone that Don said there would a POV shortly after the ride had been testing.
  13. On the 7 trips to CP last year, I only recall seeing one county sheriff on Route 6 and he was going west. I blew past him at 80 mph and he kept on going his own way. That road is pretty much deserted.. I think it's safe to say you can put the pedal to the metal. But I highly suggest stopping in Findlay to use the restroom and get food if you need it, no matter if you need to or not. The next station, save for lonely and somewhat shady truck stops, is about 30 miles west of Sandusky. I made the mistake of not stopping in Findlay to use the restroom.. miles and miles later on Route 6 I was dancing in my seat, highly considering just jumping out and using the ditch. I hit 100 MPH on that road in my own car. I tried to do it in my new one but it would only go about 90mph
  14. I always take route 6 to get to Cedar Point. My first trip to the point mapquest told me to go into bowling green. I was like WTF. I figured it out after about 10 minutes or so of looking at the map.
  15. I amke it to Cedar Point & KI every year. This topic brings up a good little off season question. Would rather live 15 minutes from one park and 2-3 hours from 2-3 different parks?
  16. Im going to shoot for 2 a week but I know I will make it at least once a week. last year I had about 20 which is lacking for me due to gas prices and driving a SUV. My record visits was 36.
  17. That is a nice video showing that. I like the area of the DB splash down more.
  18. I would have liked to see that thing run with snow in the spash down. I wonder what the splash down would have looked like then.
  19. What if they did sell of Great America do you think KI would be worthy of getting that B&M inverted coaster they have over there. KD, CP, Knotts, WL, all have full circuit inverted coasters. I think KI might be the only one without one which is why it would make a great fit for Kings Island back by x-base some where or jam it back were the go karts are. I am not sure of the layout so I don't know if it would even fit there. I can see it happening though if CF were to sell that park off.
  20. Hey just for our view pleasure I would like to suggest to put the image links inside the IMG tag.
  21. Wow that is so sweet. I almost cried when I saw that picture.
  22. Hey look!!! The ducks are all ready making a come back!!!!!!!
  23. ^ Really? In the past I always see Maverick is the 1st one to close next to Dragster and Magnum. The Gemeni closes in a mist. A mist really? Come on!
