Vortex. Wait. Nevermind.

Coronavirus Impacting Theme Parks
DeltaFlyer replied to Hawaiian Coasters 325's topic in Kings Island
I was there from about 5:45 to close today- in both the Diamondback and Orion Queues, there were security guards posted that were doing nothing but social distancing and mask enforcement. I was impressed. -
Discussing Land and Space in and around Vortex
DeltaFlyer replied to Klabergian Empire's topic in Kings Island
You have a fair point- wouldn’t Firehawk’s plot of land have sat idle for more than 21 days but less than a year? -

The entire plot of land has been seeded and straw applied. If you needed any more indication that it is going to be several years before a replacement is built, that was it. -

It appears a storm drain line was damaged in the demolition. They have just excavated the area around it to repair it. Nothing more than that. Notice how several new catch basins have been installed around the site. -
It was a walk on around 6:30 tonight and yesterday. I was only there at the end of the day, so I can’t speak for the morning.
-
They weren’t using access passes today and yesterday, so you should be fine.
-
Wasn’t yesterday either.
-
Heck, I’d take being open until 8 at this point. It’s hard to do much in the park if you can’t get there until 5:30.
-
Probably vests. I doubt the crew in Monthey would develop an inverting lap bar restraint just yet.
-
No access pass required. Just walk on as much as you’d like.

I find the problem to be less about transitions, and more about vibration. I feel like I’m in one of those mall massage chairs whenever I ride. I’m not sure if that’s a ride vehicle or a track issue, though I’d imagine it’s the latter. The Premier trains aren’t trailered either- if they were, it would probably make those transitions a little more tolerable.

This was a conversation that the separator was having with the people next in line to get a seat assignment. Not over the PA, but loud enough to where a large portion of the queue could hear it. @DonHelbig this same employee was also driving Blue Racer earlier in the day and was asking people in line over the PA “Raise your hand if Orion is overrated”. Sorry, I do not have a name.

Thunder run is a great ride- Kentucky Kingdom really takes care of it.
-
I listened to a ride op on WindSeeker drone on and on about how Orion is subpar and basically a hyper, only 287ft, etc. Getting a little old at this point.

There is a pretty neat little show in front of Zephyr called “The Scrub Club”, doing covers of pop songs with a cleaning spin. They have face shields and other cleaning supplies as props.
-
That's about the time I left- just couldn't take the heat much longer. There wasn't really anywhere to get a drink refill besides restaurants, so the lines moved pretty slow.

Admins, a temp ban may be in order for this sort of insolence. -

Is that a batwing, cobra roll, sea serpent roll and a cutback? Delicious. -
Using sod everywhere would be pretty expensive- they'd probably use it in the areas near the station and hydroseed the rest.
-
I would agree. Probably just getting broken in though.

Yes, to the right of that is two storage tracks. The control panel for the transfer table is to the left of the track right before you go into the themed area.
