That 1st turn on Pantherian is nothing but sustained positives. And exactly what im looking to feel when riding it. I want to see if it can outdo 2008 Crypt as the most intense ride Ive been on. Albeit, even though if Pantherian does end up being more intense (which i doubt it will), it wont actually scare me like Crypt did.

What will happen if I don't stay hydrated? I'm probably going to skip breakfast and lunch on the day I go and I'll make sure its a hot day. I want to black out. A full-on blackout.

The walls were very worn when I was in there in October, but there is an access ladder in the building that I believe was used to access the rack that held up the icicles from TR:TR, seen here: This is the lava pit from TRTR. I have a whopping 2,982 photos from inside the building from when I went last October. That access ladder can be seen here located next to ventilation pipes which were used (if im correct) to ventilate the building of the mist from TRTRs ride cycle.

If the attraction does end up in the building.................. I'm going to call the park and ask about purchasing some of TR:TR's theming (IF it is possible like they did with Vortex, Racer, and SOB) I'd buy it in a heartbeat................

Top Thrill 2 is open. I was right. They SPECIFICALLY made sure TT2 would run, but Ka got the axe just so Cedar Point can have the tallest and fastest coaster in North America..................... Cedar Fair stole Sirens Curse from SFNM and gave it to Cedar Point when it wouldve been better somewhere else...... And they got their wild mouse 2 years ago too......... This marks 3 years IN A ROW that Cedar Point has gotten investments, but KI gets held back and we haven't gotten anything at all.................................. Other parks are getting held back............. They even axed the OTHER 400 foot coaster at Magic Mountain........ just so Cedar Point can have the only one...................... Cedar Point is the golden child and it will be at ALL costs.

That door is visible on The Beasts exit, the exit garage. I know exactly what your talking about. When facing it its on the left, it was originally a garage door to get to the restricted area/maintenance area and access the catwalks on the ceiling of the building if I'm right...... This is going to be a complete dissapointment compared to the original ride... also, the other huge problem? Nearly ALL of that theming in there is copyrighted...... so most of it cant be used......

I also have a purple mattress. Bought mine a year and a half ago, the purple original and I absolutely love it! As you say, it works, so they're going to keep their entertainment the same way they've always drew in crowds.

They better send me that left over TRTR theming....... i'd buy it. (Im not kidding, id buy a slice off that door if i could)

Guess the first one I went to! Lol. I'm loving the new photo of it too!!

I'll stay hydrated, I just want the thing to be as ultra-intense as possible. I'll probably try to lap it 15-20 times to increase my chances of a full blackout. It can't be as bad as 08' Crypt.

Around July. I'm not going until I'm 100% certain Pantherian is open.

Hello, I have a trip planned this year for Kings Dominion with my family to get my #1 bucket list ride done: I305 (Now Pantherian) I have read TONS of reports of people blacking out and greying out due to its sheer intensity. Me, being a sucker for ultra-intense rides (as long as its not Crypt during 08, that was TOO much), wants to know: What is the BEST way to actively black out? How do I make myself black out as much as possible? I want that full intensity and this is going to be my only chance. What can I do to proactively increase my chances of blacking out on that first turn? The more intense the better!!

I hope it doesnt. LOL. Im insanely lucky I managed to get it opening day last year, it was absolutely incredible!

TT2 will be ready for Cedar Points opening day on May 3rd according to their social media.

No. Im only going to KD for I305 (Pantherian) I want that ultra-intense experience and to black out as much as possible.
