Wow...this ride is going to work up some dust as it flies by. It looks from this view to be within 10 feet or so from the ground through every loop except for the heartline at the end of the ride....wow!!!
-
If you watch the pov video and pause it as it comes out of the loop. It goes through the dive loop and kind of curves very slightly to the left to go through the vertical loop. It kind of looks like a straight shot back to the fields after that.

Hmmm...the zone converted to a torture chamber of sorts....Interesting....

I remember a rumor that B&M execs were spotted in Rivertown, back in 2004-2005 (pre CF) and later there was a rumor that Paramount rejected a design from B&M at that time. I also remember speaking with Jeff Seibert during the rebirth (and eventual death) of Winterfest, about the Swan Lake and he said that it would never be touched. Adding all of this up kind of leads me to believe that the rumors might have been true, considering what did happen between 2008 and 2009....just saying...

For Congo Falls...hmmm lets see....enclose the ride and queue...make the queue more of an interactive attraction before the ride itself. Perhaps a medieval torture chamber. The boat could drop through darkness to a pit below with animation from the splashdown to the station. It could be called....heck..Idk...maybe "The Darkness"
-
Fun times....Maybe I'll try to go next year.
-
I'm glad you folks had a great time!!!

Most likely to be heard next year in the (?) Zone....."Oh wow...the line for Banshee is how many hours long? Good grief!!! Oh well let's ride Flight Deck, it always has a short line."

Great picture.....so...who is who from left to right, front to back? (and who is the mystery photographer and hands in the bottom left?
-
Heck...no one knows what tomorrow will bring...enjoy it now while you can....oops....too late...seasons over... See you next year Kings Island!...Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise. edit: BTW....there is a lot of space under Flight Deck...enough for a very large new queue line...That would free up some real estate for possible new additions to that sleepy little hallow...Just sayin... Also, did anyone else notice that the Timberwolf stage lights were on last night (10/26)...kind of looked like sumtin was going on there too.
-
I enjoyed the speculation...now lets speculate (in at least two other threads ) what is going on with Flight Deck/Top/Gun/Swoops/Thunder Road/Bat (reborn).

Crack kills.

I always thought the parking "fee" paid for the parking lot repairs....guess it's more for the convenience of parking there...but...where else are you going to park? I also challenge anyone to push a wheel chair for two miles without a break and answer this question "Are you having a good day today?"
-
I don't think it was intentional for the lighting from Slingshot, but I think there will be very minimal lighting, if any on the coaster itself. I think the lighting that we are seeing on night shots on the webcam were intentional so we would be able to see the coaster at night on the webcam only. I believe the ride is going to be a really intense ride at night. I can't wait to see what surprises are in store for the ride next year.(fog, tombstones etc).

Good-Bye Coney? River Downs Racino Looming
upstop replied to pilotank's topic in Coney Island Central
It would be wise for Coney to open a new and exciting attraction when the racino opens to draw some of the younger crowd westward to play while the older crowd plays next door. -
-
After the first riders....it might just be that color...LOL
-
I would have liked to have seen Chaos rebuilt at KK instead of seeing it rust in that field.
-
how much of the building does Boo Hill occupy?
-
Here's your coaster....LOL http://rcdb.com/314.htm?p=879

Found this on you tube...If you have a while, it's a great video about the Haunted Mansion. http://youtu.be/LeQstsAAv5c
-
I wouldn't make a bet on that...LOL...It's all about dollars (not pennies).
-
The original video in the link wasn't working for me, but I found the video in the title of this thread on you tube...It certainly deserves a second look after all these years...great video.
-
I wouldn't mind seeing something like this in Coney Mall
-
I remember seeing deer relaxing in the shade next to the track before the second tunnel on The Beast and then remembering....I'm in the front seat...yikes.
