  1. Im sure stacking will not be a problem
  2. The people who worked it, and worked it well had exprence with the ride. Borg is way diffrent than the 2nd dutch man... fyi. And working at x-flight and then working several other coasters you could see that working x-flight is not just pushing a green button. Plus seeing people who worked with the coaster since 01 they have said simmular things
  3. 2 stations ran on crowded days. When six flags had 3 trains they only ran it once with them. It was very difficult to run with 3 trains because it had guests on their backs for a very long time. In 2005 and 2006 x-flight's crew was very good im concerned about the workers at ki its a really hard ride to learn and takes a long time to learn and only VERY good employees can run it, so thats only a select few.
  4. Woodies shouldnt be smooth... yet they shouldnt kill you
  5. I like how they used the flag! haha
  6. That road is acctualy blocked off right now and he would have to walk up to the front gate.
  7. If you look at all the pictures they are all taken on the park's property
  8. my mom was there that day that they were there
  9. What are you going for when the gates open?
  10. Shame on the person who took those pictures
  11. What season did hte brady bunch go to Kings Island? I cant find it and i have all the seasons on DVD
  12. Just like when they, your "sources", were correct when you swore up and down that SOBs loop wasn't being removed. the old proverb Those who know don't tell. Those who tell don't know.
  13. Please do the favor and shut up! you made no sense in that post, you say its multi million dollar project then you say its multi million dollar coaster. You need to make up your mind! And you saying its not goin to be a great season, well your just crazy! it might not be a great season for GL but whats instore for KI will be great for the park! Im saying that they are spending mulit million dollars on a multi million dollar coaster and thats all being spent out of mataince money? thats very costly. Im also saying 10 million dollars isnt gonna buy a great year... I am sure Geauga Lake will have another great year next year. Geauga lake had a great year this year reaching over 750k people with a shorten season
  14. Yes i understand where that is coming from... its a multi million dollar project... when it was a multi million dolar coaster. hmm
  15. WEll one of those coasterse were a kiddie coaster That and no way answers what I asked you and what would you know about CD's "standards"? Granted your a seasonal Cedar Fair employee, but you do not have any inside knowledge of how their corporate decisions are made nor how their full time upper management decisions are made. Cedar Fair has differnet standards set for different parks. Having myself been to a plethora of them, you can notice the difference in "standards". I respect your love for Geauga Lake and your place of employment, its a great park with great people, but it in no way is up to the customer service and quality levels Cedar Point is at. I visted both within a week of eachother and the details are quite obvious. Its an industry... its not hard to learn about it. I knew as much as i did when i was not incharge at GL. Look at CF's past, you can see that some coasters were not to standards... raging wolf bobs, hurs, SoB... ect... they eaither A. Fixed them up to their standards (look at CF woodies) or B. Take them out. It isnt 'inside knowalge' And to sum it up getting 10 million dollars dosnt make it a "great" year
  16. haha 10 million dollars is nothing. Six Flags put 4 coasters in one year for 40 million
  17. i would like to see how long the lines are going to be... at geauga lake they had about 15 min wait on slow days.
  18. okay... how is the park paying to get SoB fixed? and being a ride op has nothing to do with knowing how Cedar Fair brings coasters to their "standards"
  19. Its most likely that they are getting new trains and the coast of the repairs to SoB is part of the 10 million. They annonced all the moneying being spent for the 2007, they don't just leave things out. This is a pubicly traded company they have to make everything they do public.
  20. or you guys can just wait and stop arguing
  21. :-\ not likely at all.
