I'm not there, I have other methods of seeing stuff. The Diamondback line has overfill filled up, and nearly the normal queue out the entrance. It's a lot of people. Diamondback just went down for something, bunch of people leaving queue all of a sudden.

Unsurprising! How far out is it onto the A72 midway?

New KI Gear: Orion and Beast light up signs
Coasterteam replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
The guy who made these was apparently selling them for $120 but KI is now reselling them at $200 a piece -
Has Congo Falls always been included in Fast Lane? Not listed on the site at all.

Regarding the Son of Beast Station
Coasterteam replied to CorkscrewMcPuke's topic in Coming Attractions
I could see it torn down soon and make way for a whole revamp to that area of the park, that's what needs work the most in Action Zone. -
Anyone happen to know the reason why they weren't reporting actual wait times this weekend (including preview day)? App usually shows that but it was just showing rides as Open or Closed (Down). Might be technical difficulties, but it's hard to tell given their backend API for the app is just saying 0 minutes for all rides that are open.
-
I imagine they didn't finish in-time for opening but likely will have it done by the 29th.

Hayo! Back to describe some things I saw while riding Orion, Racer, and Diamondback. On Orion, I could see progress was still being made on the mid course tunnel area. With a few glances during the turnaround, I could tell it has a long way to go still. on Racer, during the turnaround, I could see deeper into the forest and saw lots of new bents/ledgers on the second drop. The biggest one, the helix. While on the overbank turn for Diamondback, I could see the new helix structure. It looked like the same clearance as the old one, so that’s a good sign. Note, only caught a few glimpses so I may be wrong. Additionally, on the lift hill for Diamondback, you can see that they've put some sort of cover over the wristband graveyard on The Beasts lift hill. Not sure if this is temporary or a whole new cover piece. Hoping we’ll see it done early to mid May.

Seriously? Those were the best part of going there!
-
My guess is they didn't have enough time to do so, like a lot of things, and they just did this temporarily. Hopefully we see them done by April 29th. Beast, Gardens, some smaller stuff, Racer paint, and The Racer stickers were behind. Thankfully they still ran Racer.

Season Pass Fast Lane Plus has officially been marked as sold out for the season
-
God that looks so good. It sounds awesome too!
-
Holy cow! That’s quite a line. I’m not surprised though, that’s a good family coaster. Is Adventure Express open? A different question, what rides have you managed to get on so far?
-
Beast is a walk-on, if you like RCT crashes of course.
-
yeah we're in for a treat there Diamondback is a walk-on rn
-
In the recent video released regarding the 50th anniversary, a short clip of Racer testing can be seen rather early on. While I don't see the raised front logo yet, I'm sure that's coming shortly! Don't know the exact film date here

Single-Day Fast Lane now on sale for 2022
Coasterteam replied to Coasterteam's topic in Kings Island
Individual FastLane Plus is also now available for Passholder Preview day, previously unavailable. -
To move this thread back on topic with the title, checkout this update the park just posted!

I'd love a new flat, between thrill and family.
-
I hope they keep up with this spree of improving current infrastructure, it's really awesome seeing them re-investing in areas of the park that needs it and into rides. Beast, Racer, Backlot, Adventure Express, Drop Tower, etc Rather than getting some brand new ride, the money is spreading around the park rather than one specific area

Diamondback New Chain for the Golden Celebration!
Coasterteam replied to CoasterFanatic.'s topic in Kings Island
Likely a pro-active measure considering GateKeeper had issues last season. -
Kings Island 50th Anniversary Entrance Banner
Coasterteam replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
Looks so good! I love the art style in this image -
Blurted out in the middle of a lecture because of this, my face is the same shade of red as that track! Looks so good!
