When roll backs occur, it is not good for the computer system. Unless a ride op has figured out a loophole in the system, they can't cause a rollback on purpose unless they somehow close the brakes through the launch area while the train is traveling through it. But 99.9% of the time, it is random. You are wrong thier buddy. While I am not sure if the ride ops can tkae control of the ride from the operation pannel they certainly can and do controll the speed of the motor. When they replace the cable or when the hyrolic motor is 1st installed they do not launch it at full speed. They slowly break in the motor and or cable.

I can gurantee you there is no kind of "slam into the hydraulics making a loud crash" from any drop height. Let alone 10-15 feet. Can you?!??!?! That is why I saw it with my own two eyes along with other people in the group that were standing there.

I have been on both and ejoyed King Cobra more. I am 6 foot 3 and 225 pounds and the Mantis is just uncoftable for me and casues muscle pain in my legs for an 30 minutes or so after I ride it. King Cobra was less force full and for a stand up thats a good thing.

I been on four TTD roll backs. Just go early in the year early in the day a roll back is almost for sure. I have rolled back on Maverick once but no way as much fun as TTD.

I think the drop will look much nicer. I hope on the other hand they theme the splash down area like in the video. -
It was a few years ago. I think they had a 10 foot step ladder but I can't swear to it.

Did it open on time? -
I have been having alot of coaster dreams since the annocment of Diamondback.

I have seen it stuck 10-15 ft in the air with riders. Riders were unloaded and then the ride was allowed to drop from that position and slam into the hyrodilcs making a loud crash. Kind of scary seeing what a fall from 10-15 feet does much less 265ft.

How long would you wait to ride your favorite roller coaster?

Max time for me is 6 hours. The length of my PSP battery. -

I am getting a season pass next year for sure but if I just get a normal pass and decided to go Cedar Point later can I upgrade my pass?

Just to think for as tall as that is that is one of the smallest hills on the ride! -
Instead of removing the guest from the line they need to kick them out of the park without refund.

Aren't most of the halloween events at parks very crowded? -
Are there any rides you won't go on at KI?
flightoffear1996 replied to Cortney's topic in Kings Island
If they will build it, I will come to ride it. -
I am disapointed. No photos for my enjoyment when you said there would be!

Build it without brakes
flightoffear1996 replied to stewwill's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Magnetic breaks require little maintance and it will reduce the wear and tear on the trains, and the wooden structure. Yea its more fun to fly threw the course but it will save the park money in the long run and probaly less complaints about a ride being too rough from park guest.
