Life has gone on and life will continue to go on, the removal wasnt the end of the world.....except for maybe a few special people.

Kings Island already has quite a lot of those thank you.

^Gotta agree iwth the rail rider here, B&M inverts are pretty amazing. My favorite coaster, Top Gun the Jet Coaster down at Carowinds, is a B&M invert. The floorless are great too, Kraken down at SeaWorld is one crazy ride and as always with B&M; smooth as glass.

You are correct sir.

Yes, they only have a seperator for what once was called "walk on weekends" it is now called "Gold Pass Speed Lane" (not just for IJ:ST but for all the rides now)

It doesnt stand for "bowl and movement"?

You can get tickets to Combat Stupendous' next show through ticketmaster at Krogers too! Shameless plug.

Its not the park thats worht a lot of money, its the land it sits on thats worth money, the worth of the land greatly outweighs the worth of the park from a business standpoint....thats what happeneed to Six Flags Astroworld.

Incorrect good sir, the loops has wooden track with a steel support structure, the track is wooden, hence why it is a wooden coaster and not a hybrid. Steel supports/track do not make the ride any more safe than if it was all wooden track/supports.

hahahahah PBS kids world, Arthur the last airbender

Has anyone seen the intamin track that was on that barge going by Great American Ball park the other night? Its rumored to be going to coney island!

^As for your last question, theres a million topics about that so Id go check those out and just to give you a heads up since your a newer member, do some searching before you post and post trip reports in the trip report sections. Just giving you a heads up, welcome to PKIC!

Arrow's were primarily designed by Ron Toomer, he pretty much designed every arrow coaster except Tenesse Tornado......now what does that tell you..... ?

Does SOFCO/CF make the track for the Givonola designed coasters such as Goliath at SFMM and did they make the trakc for Intamin when INtamin used that design before the actual designers Bolliger and Malibrad left their firm?

^I remember seeing in an article at the time Millenium Force and Son of Beast were being built that Ohio has set the most records for rollercoasters, dont know if that still holds true.

They should stop playing that song.

^Well CF does have paramount movie licensing rights for the next 10 years, so technicalyl they oculd still play theme songs from paramount movies and the licensing rights may not even be required for the music. On I street and in the AE que they play the Indiana Jones them song, which although is a paramount movie, the rights were given to MGM through speildberg.

^Are those tunnels not considered buildings according to how their specificatiosn meet the guidlines which apply to having the exit signs? Adventure Express by the way does have an illuminated exit sign I think now. I could be, and most likely am wrong.

On June 15th it was pretty much dead

The magnetic trim breaks are located midway down the first drop, then as you make the ascending left turn there are trim breaks on top of that, you go up antoher hill, drop, up another hill then a sharp right into the brake shed. At the end of the brake shed there isyet another set of trim brakes. Next you exit the brake shed through the tunnels, into the quick dip, and up lift hill number 2. Mid way down the drop into the double helix there is the final set of trim brakes.

^Sorry to hear that you had a bad experience, but you did the right thing going to guest relations, and trust me, they will definently follow up on it. I went to PKI today as well just because it was nice and to get some shots I had been dying to get. I rode Beast, SOB, Topgun, Delerium, Drop Zone, then Beast again in the span of 3 hours while managing to snap around 25 pictures, only 5 of which I really liked. Heres some from today... -Delirium was an extremel fun ride today as always with a wait of only one cycle! -I got this picture of Top Gun from the SOB exit line. It's coming around the peak of its second hill. -I rode Xtreme Skyflyer today and it is one of my favorite rides ever. No crowds, no complaints, wasnt there long, saw friends, had fun.

^Anyone have that video AZKindaguy is talking about?

^A very well written post that makes an excellent point!

Have you seen the "entertainment" at CP? Currently Kings Island is schooling Cedar Point in live shows.

I wish I didnt have to go to a graduation party so I could go.
