  1. Intamin's? I am sure that cable isn't original and does anyone remember Hellivator.... The cable was past due for replacement and not made by Intamin or a recommended supplier.
  2. How much of the original Zippin Pippin was refurbished to the new one? Same question but Wild One at SFA.
  3. Well y'all have a Wave Swinger and a Troika. Troika, Musik Express and Top Scan have been seen on property at Carowinds so that leaves the Break Dance 4..... The family(near kiddy) verison of the Huss Break Dance.
  4. This may sound bad but I feel bad for the designers, lifeguards, etc that likely feel responsible for the safety of the attraction.
  5. A waterslide with a harness? How big is this slide? Edit: I see the answer above me.
  6. I worked my tail off when I was 18 working at Carowinds. I wasn't working for the money either, that was just a benefit. I still miss working 13 hour days, 60 plus hours a week at Carowinds. I miss the paychecks even more since I have bills to pay instead of just spending the money having only gas and food to pay for.
  7. Same goes for Carowinds.....Carowinds even had some Asians that were attractive.
  8. I've got a better one- have him marathon Wild Mouse at Dorney Park (or Skyrush at Hershey) from open to close. That'll teach him! Seriously, though; wow! I'm curious about the events that led up to this guy grabbing Pinky (like, was he mad at someone, or did he do it just because?). I love me some Wild Mouse! Mean Streak is worse, Runaway Reptar.....hang em high for headbanger.
  9. Hands are supposed to be kept on safety bars(for PTCs the grab bar in front of you). During a Video Shoot at Carowinds on Afterburn for Coaster Wars(I think) we had to keep our hands on the bars(on the harness) otherwise Dani Swords said the footage would be unusable. Most of Carowinds recent photos is like this.
  10. Strictly speaking, most coasters at Kings Island and elsewhere say in the rules to "keep hands down and inside car at all times". So this is already a policy on most coasters. It's just not generally enforced often. If parks enforced keeping hands down, they would be tossing out half their visitors. I discussed the issue with the Rides Manager at Carowinds in 2006.
  11. They filed it on a Friday after the Annoucement.....
  12. Or walking on casts, I walked around Carowinds all day with a cast a couple times. Crutches weren't my friend, I nearly broke my other foot on them.
  13. ^You might have..... http://s3-ak.buzzfeed.com/static/2013-11/enhanced/webdr05/26/13/anigif_enhanced-buzz-13505-1385491068-20.gif
  14. Actually it's a Disk'O according to this page so Wikipedia is wrong on one of these pageshttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk%27O Both of you are wrong, Skater Coaster! Lol! Does it really matter anyway?
  15. If I were Disney, I would really be tracking Sting....I wouldn't trust him Standing so close to teenage children.
  16. Carowinds and Kings Island have experience doing Winterfest in the past. Worlds of Fun seems like an option so that it isn't all Paramount Parks.
  17. Not much need to animate the entire park.
  18. Seems alittle silly to have three different towers, I get that they are each a different experience but still. Drop Tower at Carowinds and Freefall at Tweetsie while two completely different rides still do the same basic thing. Raise up and drop down.
  19. Me or Interperter? Me: Not Intentional, just trying to learn by asking questions. Terp: Not really trolling, he answered my question with a fact. If you want to see some trolls, head over to a fansite for my home park. Carowinds Zone is my former Carowinds Fansite, I am refering to other. They proceed to try and argue nearly every fact and opinion I post, not to mention the personal attacks. I am trying not to post over there.....
