Have you thought about Waldameer vs Michigan's Adventure? https://rcdb.com/4646.htm I much prefer it over MIA and its only 2.5hrs away from Cedar Point. Don't even think about comparing Kennywood to a Cedar Fair or corporate company. Don't go just for the coasters, the park has a very unique charm about it which is why I rank it so highly. As to get a rollback on TTD, I thought it only roll-backed typically during the beginning and end of the season when the weather is colder in the morning.

What department did you apply for?

5 Aggressive Thrill Rides Rides that generally have one or more of the following: high speeds and/or heights, aggressive and unexpected forces, and rapid directional or elevation change. Riders will encounter many unexpected rapid changes in speed, direction and/or elevation. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/images/uploads/file/GAG 2016(4).pdf Thus why Adventure Express is a level 5.

Did anyone of you ride FOF this season? Mid season until closing day it flew through the MCBR hardly stopping. But what do I know

Of course, you would simply ease into spieling on mics. Don't let something as small as spieling hold you back. Its very intimidating at first but you quickly find its not bad at all. Working at the park is truly a unique experience, everyday is different and always full of excitement and energy. For those who showed an interest in the Rides Department feel free to message me with any more in-depth questions. I'd be more than happy to get you on that path.

Cedar Point (+ Other CF Parks) May Change All Season Drink Program
TOPGUN1993 replied to Tr0y's topic in Kings Island
Less souvenir bottles = less chances for the bottles to spill in the ride bins on the platforms. #efficiency -
Speaking of direct sunlight, the first thing that comes to my mind is .... the "Harness Stable"

Closing Day, October 30, 2016: Commitment Pays Off
TOPGUN1993 replied to VortexBFForever's topic in Trip Reports
Great PTR, The Vortex crew really enjoys when you come and visit. -
Sorry this response was delayed- sadly no, but thankfully the 2 other posters showed of the Flight of Fear and Mystic Timbers ones. Son of Beast didn't have a box like that, the reference to it is that where The "Beast Canyon Mining Co." sign usually is (at the main entrance above the soda machines), it said Outpost 5 Mining Co. (or something similar) instead. Outpost 5 was the secret government area where, in storyline, Son of Beast was being held I believe the Son of Beast crate is in the entrance plaza and The Beast crate to the right of the queue bridge, FOF and Mystic are to the left of the bridge. You could tell someone took alot of time to create The Beast Haunt display this season. Someone should get more pictures this weekend during the day and night.

The "Brake Shed" was never a "block" or a place trains could stop at. Lift 2 however was divided into 2 block zones, one block being from bottom of the lift to 2/3 of the way up and the other block zone being 2/3 of the way up to crest of lift 2. Thus you could send a train over lift 1 with a train about to crest lift 2. Indeed

There is sometimes where operators will stop Banshee at the top of the lift hill, (right when the scream is triggered) and then move the train again causing the scream to go off once more. A double scream is what they called it (also said they usually do it during haunt) As for music. It's probably something that you just couldn't hear due to the loud train, and other noises going on. (When I last heard the audio this year, It sounded quite quiet to me.) The operators don't do this, the ride system auto stop because of blocking. Nope, The operators do purposely do this sometimes. Silly me....... what do I know....

Can riders ride slingshot and skyflyer solo?
TOPGUN1993 replied to Blackhole6670's topic in Kings Island
Yes you can ride Skyflyer solo, (I recommend it, the drop is better) and yes you have to pull the ripcord. Slingshot you must ride with someone.
