Ki Man

I waited about 1/2 hour in line yesterday at 6PM. It closed for weather while Drop Zone was still running. Atleast they gave out t-shirts! So....I'm an 'unofficial 2,500 rider'

The park takes up 1/3 of the land KI owns. The rest is swampy stuff and woods.

Well, if they had two trains running the wait would have been significantly better! And hopefuly, it will be two train ops the rest of the season, for KI's sake.

1. Flight of Fear. Excellent this year. 2. Vortex 3. Face/Off, on a good ride 4. Top Gun 5. Beast, on a good ride Flats 1. Drop Zone 2. Delirium, a close second 3. TR:TR 4. Viking Fury 5. Shake Rattle and Roll

As was stated before, just follow the instructions! There are bins to safely put your things in. I can't remember if I put my things in my cargo pockets or the bins, but I usually just have my camera, wallet, and cell phone with me. Those always go in pockets. (On BORG Assimilator) So I am really looking foreward to Firehawk, especially for theming or grass in the following years.

^He has been on x-flight. I have been on BORG, but I WANT THAT T-SHIRT! lol Yea, Ill be there at 9

A crazy Intamin that has insane airtime, but can take advantage of KI's woods behind Racer and can go low to the ground....Or a B&M hyper would do.

My uncle works for a plant that provides steel for Gravity Group, and I called the Boardwalk Bullet and the new coaster at waldameer, soooooo...maybe it's a posibility if this guy was being 100000% true. But who knows. A B&M hyper or floorless would be awesome, but it's all in the matter of time.

The general public makes me laugh. How many times has this been asked?!?! LOL at those who think Vortex is sinking and that it's rough. If there is any 'roughness' it's the jerks around the turns after the first drop.

Great to hear you liked TTD, MF, and MXL200. All in my top 4 I didnt really like Skyhawk for its very...VERY short program. I really like Mantis, though! I never had any head banging in the front, and it was great! KI "MF is still #1 IMHO" Man

^The Racer was running awesome yesterday! Great airtime all over! A little bit of bumpyness coming onto the final hills.

KI on Mind - It's the truth. The last two cars would be hanging down the hill, when breaks release, it falls back. Wrong place to put brakes. Just like Tatsu at SFMM. If there is an e-stop, it would break the train at the bottom of the pretzel loop, it would be stuck.

I hear a new set of ending brakes, because if they E-stop it now, the train will valley when the brakes release. The last two cars will be hanging back over the drop witht he rest of the train stuck in the brakes. Poor design thought there.

IJST used to have some wires

Flight of Fear was amazing! There was fog in the drum, there was a BADASS techno bass beat when the train rolled in the station, it was just....10000 times more intense and all around better! The final corkscrew was just incredible! It felt like a zero-g!!!! The MCBR wasn't that bad and it was really smooth! Yes, the cobra roll is VERY intense, but not so intense that you bang your head. The transitions were smooth and the whole ride was an incredible experiance. After 6 years of riding Flight of Fear; this was hands down the best! Also, the camera was off and looks like photo booth was getting redone. Flight of Fear = <33333 Oh yea....the guy out front said the wait was 1 hour and 20 minutes...but it was only 45 to get on and off through the whole qeue. Abit brighter inside, more lights. No more backround sounds with like..the beeping and humming. Just my 2007 Flight of Fear opinion! KI 'Number five all time best coaster on my list!' Man

As of yesterday, I saw NO tarp. And what could be test dummies in the station? (pic by me)

Hey everyone, my friend and I will be at the park today, and I think I will be wearing my white Miami Redhawks Hat and some cargo shorts....dont know what shirt hahaha. Well, Ill be there from 12PM to 5PM. So if ya see me, say hi! -Ki Man PS...I WILL be takin pictures

I still hate how unrealistic some of the coaster drawing are

Happy Bday Kings Island, also happy birthday 20'th bday to Vortex and 25? to Fairly Odd Coaster (still beastie to me) Happy 15th to Little Bills giggle coaster

Yea, I am really excited about the park being open daily soon. It really is a wake up to school ending and summer coming. I love the feeling!

Thankfully, I havent seen any fights at the park; but the line jumpers are quite abundant, always going ahead to get to their friends....this one 15 year old black girl was carying a 1 year old kid with her through the front of the line of Racer saying Excuse me.....wtf?! I hate they do that and try to be nice about it. It doesnt really hit me about had mad I get until a minute later when I see they are in the car infront of me and I have to wait a train extra. RRRRRrrrr

I had an OK visit to KI on sunday. Vortex, and IJST broke down when I got in line. BUT Racer was awesome! And one thing that I HATED!!! On Flight of Fear, you COMPLETELY stop during the mid brake run. You stop and inch down the turn for the rest of the ride...i hated it! So much. I love FoF, but that part almost kills the ride. I almost thought it broke down! Still a fin ride...but not so fun pause.

Getting a nice ride on Drop Zone, being launched into space on Flight of Fear....having a spin on Vortex and.......flying the TRUE WAY on Top Gun!

I really don't like BFFD. Why? You can't get on more than 3 rides the whole day! Even AE had its qeues filled! Yea, it increases park attendance, but it sucks for regular park goers.

I will be there sunday or saturday with TPR peeps.
