I thought is was pretty funny using a quote from a performer that has a long & distinguished history of substance abuse. Birds of a feather.......

I cheer too after riding an Intamin. I made it back safe & alive.

One positive angle when an Intamin goes down: nobody is getting hurt or killed.

You said it.Some have records for speed. Some have records for length. Intamin happens to have records both: lack of speed repairing their product & length of downtime their product has. Now, I wonder where that oh so fitting clapping video is at, Intamin deserves that praise!

Perhaps he prefers the banana hammocks?

Same poll seen here from 2011: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/23549-should-surf-dog-be-considered-a-coaster/?hl=surf Remember: search feature is your friend.

Only one of us has "roid rage" over manufacturers.

What??? Somehow you are the only one that is allowed to have an opinion? Funny how you now want to change the rules to suit yourself. Aside from the most obvious: One accident could be a park's fault, but dozens by one ride company is an epidemic. Too bad you can't handle the truth. Sleep well! You are absolutely correct. And until he can acknowledge the good, the bad, and the ugly about Intamin, it is impossible to believe otherwise.

I'm sure Kaitlyn Lasitter's parents (like any other "real" parents) are more concerned about their child's health over their own fun.

Safety is never a mistake.

Hey! I can copy & paste from Wiki too! At least with Banshee, a reliable & safe B&M, we know the odds are it will be open for guests to enjoy come opening day! Don't be mad bro, perhaps one day you will understand the safety of your "daughter" on any ride will overshadow what you believe to "push the envelope over a ride that is incredible".

I don't speak Spanish. No hablo espanol?

Some make innocent mistakes, others are guilty of creating unnecessary drama.We know the OP make a mistake, as for our resident A-Rod....... well, yeah.

Both SW & BG use the same system. Neither are directly connected to your card/ bank. Please note the quoted link above for Discovery Dollars as well as 'Terpy's comment.

Which parks use the system directly linked to your card and do not need "charged"? SeaWorld Entertainment parks, for one, can use it either way. You can load cash onto the wristbands and use them like a gift card, or you can link the wristband to your credit card and charge purchases to it to your heart's content. Sea World works just like Disney and does not access your card account for every purchase: http://seaworldparks.com/buschgardens-williamsburg/Park-Info/Know-Before-You-Go?m=1

^ Disney is capped at whatever amount you choose. The $$ is withdrawn off your debit/ credit card, checking account (or even cash) and put onto your Disney account to be used at any Disney venue. The funds are not withdrawn from your credit card per transaction with Disney as a "middle man".

You are literally referring to a credit card which card holders can earn points.For Disney to offer what you suggest, they would have to be their own licensed bank. They still have an agreement with Visa for such things.

Or brass; which is very soft & used in many machining applications as a "sacrificial" metal to protect more valuable metals & their application.

Waldameer uses a similar system.I had my doubts at first, but after using it for the past couple years, the positives far outweigh the negatives. You don't need to carry cash (and subsequent change); just use your credit/ debit card. Parents can purchase cards for kids. Money will not get wet. No issue with getting the incorrect change back. KI could go a step further & include a season pass to be used a cash that could be charged prior to going to KI, much like a D&B card. KI also can keep tabs on all the cash. The more hands that touch the cash, the more it could be "lost". There will be a time that the only way to pay for things in the park will be to use the system.

OMG!I am SO sorry!

^ Seasonal parks are open approximately 150 days. Losing 25% of the season is terrible for guests and makes parks look incompetent. You can spin it however you want. The lies you spread about DB stacking only to turn around and claim losing 25% of a season because of a blown motor being something you can live with only reinforces the constant closed-mind trolling you bring to KIC. U mad bro?

Another failure by an Intamin. Is it coincidence? Is it poor engineering? Is it an epidemic? Guests are not happy. Parks are not happy. B & M is happy.

The same reason Intamin installed 6 trains on TTD and only uses 5: what looks good in theory & on paper does not always work out in reality.

Went to CP recently and COULD NOT BELIEVE the stacking on WT, an Intamin.
