10/19/08 Trip to KI with 6 year old son!
flightoffear1996 replied to weluvki's topic in Trip Reports
Glad you guys had fun. I was at the park and here are some photos! I visited the park today and this ride is amazing looking. I cant even begin to tell you how it looks in person and how many people in the park are talking about Diamondback! It just is great to see this kind of buzz around Kings Isalnd again. Anyway with out further ado here are the pictures I took of Diamondback today. The park was great today and every ride was a walk-on! The longest we waited was for Firehawk and that is because we had to wait for them to test a few times after a breakdown. Spooky entrance. I visited the park today and this ride is amazing looking.

Too only think thats only about 28%-30% of the drop. Bottom of the 1st drop. First Drop! Great use of the terrian! Lots of work still to be done. Lots of track peices and an empty parking lot. Ovierview. -
Hey while I didnt make the record I did do The Racers 31 times in arow today!

I wondering if they are going to have an auction thing where you donate money to a good cuase but get to ride Diamondback first like they did for Maverick and various other Cedar Fair coasters. I'll be there opening day hopefully getting two spins on this monster. I am off heading to the park. -
COme on tell us you have to now!

I dont think you will get wet. -
I doubt it will ever return.

Not only that but from watching the relocation of Firehawk and Dominator alot of extra ground work is required since the supports and such arent desgined for that area. So the the footers and things have to of different size and ground work must be close to the ground work of the pervious area. The only savings on moving a ride is a) ablity to upgrade to newer compontents to allow better relibilty, not having to pay for new steel and that is about it! There is also more labor involved so what are the parks really saving?

Diamondback Construction Thread (Updated 3-19-09)
flightoffear1996 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
A season pass holder day is cool and all but I bet 3/4 to 1/2 of KI visitors are pass holders and the number may go up even more since the addition of Diamondback so how much will it really cut down on the line? -
I got nailed in the eye with a cicada while on the rosters. I had kind of a crappy coaster year. Just got to KI about 20 times or so and Cedar Point about 4 times.

The Entrance to The Beast (Bring Your Camera)
flightoffear1996 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
Ill be there and take some pictures. -
LOL $20 an hour would be sweet.

I havent been to the haunt yet. I planning on taking my sister and her fiance (or however you spell it) They are non pass holders and I want them to get the most of value for thier ticket. Do you think ti be better if we went on a Friday from 7-1 which is 6 hours. I want them to ride Firehawk and maybe the Crypt if its open because they don't no that it has changed plus 3 or 4 haunts. Would thier be enough time to do that on a Friday?

I saw them using the turnstyles on the Robbie Kneviel jump day.

Its not going any where. its a fun ride and looks great on the lake.
