Diamondback on Good Morning America
I haven't seen it on ABCNews.com yet. I don't know if they post videos of their GMA segments or not, but there is a brief video about DB on their site: ABCNews

Diamondback on Good Morning America
I caught a segment on ABC's Good Morning America this morning, featuring "Diamondback". The host, Chris Cuomo, in response to one of the other host's comment about the hyper coaster's speed (80 mph), said "How fast do they gotta make those things?" (He then seemed to also express a little 'coasterphobia'.) They discussed the coaster as being the first stadium-seating coaster, while showing the computer animation. Then they said that one will be built in Europe that will go 135 mph. Anyway It was cool to see this featured on a national news show!

Flight Of Fear
The rush of the launch is similar to the Drop Tower, only horizontal, and more instantaneous. It is more fun than scary, and you might find yourself laughing more than screaming (because of the first-time experiences of the elements within the ride, which are fun.)

What do you think the new ride's name will be?
I'm feeling a "Dragon" vibe, or some kind of monster within the dragon "family", such as Wyvern, Griffon, Drache, or the legendary "Tiamat". -Tb, rolling a natural 20...

going to ki tommorrow what ride should i ride
^Well, you might not be able to help it if you're hungry and happen to catch the aroma of Potato Works! but seriously, when your hunger overpowers your coaster urge, that's a good time to stop and eat.

Definitely Firehawk; if you wait, you'll spend epic line time later in the day. Definitely Vortex before Beast (try to get last car). It's a blast!

Question about one of the slides in Boomerang Bay....
It seems to me like the design of the ride makes it so that even if you were ejected from the raft, you'd still end up safely 'flushed' into the end pool.

Most Insane Ride Ever!
Let me add "Timber Tower" at Dollywood to my list of craziest rides I've ever seen. What is there a huge counterweight underground or something? That thing looks nuts !

A great trip to OHIO
Very cool pics, especially of the raptor with the compressed air (?) going over its wings, the loop on FH, and the awesome pic of Bob Evans with that big ride in the way . Seriously, great pics!

Music at the Waterpark
I haven't been to the waterpark in a few years, and the songs they repeated back then are still in my head It was like "Highwire" by Men at Work, then some cool "Digiridoo" techno song, "Waltzin' Matilda", some modern "Punk" sounding song, and various others.
- OMG!

OMG!

Track OnSite at Kings Island
It would be cool if Barry Williams and/or Maureen McCormick stopped by to make the announcement I like this seemingly deliberate appearance of little bits of track in diverse places. It's like smelling the New York Strip in the kitchen, before they bring it out to be savored.
