I guess it is over by the batwing isnt it? Hmm.... I think I will stick with my ordering.. if anything swap adventure and Banshee. The ones by the dive loop are more for the entrance/ approaching.. which is great, but doesnt get noticed nor enhance the ride for me
-
And there will soon be coasters 500ft tall.. not sure if those are called poler coasters... or if that's supposed to be just for the style being built flying around a single cylindrical tower
-
Nah. They need to have employees to run the park and most of their work force is in school till 2 or so in the afternoon. 4pm is right when the park will open IMO

Not counting the yet to open Mystic Timbers Best themed ride experience is Backlot despite its diminished theming since opening... best overall including queues, FOF.. awesome queue and station theming, but not really anything in the spaghetti bowl, you can easily tell its a black room with randomly colored lights.. looks awesome.. but not really thematic. Banshee then Adventure Express to finish it off. Again Banshee has those cool lights, but I wouldnt call it thematic rather than a different colored fill light than white. Adventure Express has good on ride theming still left over.. nothing in the queue and station.. and some parts arent really themed even still

The smiling face??

You mean A flat? The park could use more flats in general imo X base, Coney's far too long vacant ex-flight commander area, The largest amusement park smoking area in the mid-west :p.. the area encompassing BLSC. Absolutely no attractions there sans carousel. But I would be happy even if one year they simply made sure that the rides had adequate coverage for the queues. BLSC, Firehawk, Racer (Why did they remove some pergola?), Diamondback's last 20 min & extended queue block.. Maybe even consider on some of the flats?

Coney has Special Announcement Coming March 2
calakapepe replied to CoastersRZ's topic in Coney Island Central
Yeah, I agree, a little overhyped for leading up to the announcement. They should've started the hype for the announcement a little closer to the announcement date.. or went with a less implying slogan like "Things are getting brighter" or "Coney has it, but IT is getting better" The splash thing made it sound like a new slide or some new attraction incorporating water. -
I mean, technically, on almost any woodie with rails, you could touch the railing at almost any point in the ride if you chose to
-
Still hoping they get rid of those two islands outside of Reds Hall of Fame Grille to help alleviate that bottleneck now that an additional major coaster is gonna be right there.

Coney has Special Announcement Coming March 2
calakapepe replied to CoastersRZ's topic in Coney Island Central
The improvements are great! Typhoon tower change, I'm not too keen about. That attraction isnt old; the change just makes me think "look at us, we have a new logo!" The logo... Not amazing, but I'm fine with it. I liked the old better as of now... but I wasnt in love with the old one either so *shrug* [emoji14] -
We can do better than that at KI... even if you aim it for little kids lol Way better "motorbike/ pony" coaster possibilities
-
Which is what i said. "I'd be surprised if that has never happened" even thinking specifically of magenta lizard who isnt "strangely tall" even. (If I recall) I said I would be surprised if there was NOT a case of a tall person smacking a supposedly clear area...

Fast Lane Plus Season Pass
calakapepe replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
That's what I said though One pass per day, per ride. -
I'd be surprised if that has never happened. And Im aware of clearance tests that should always happen [emoji14]
-
At KK? There's no tunnel but for the inversions and cross overs its cleared enough for a moderately heighted person to have their hands up
-
Probably will need to exist [emoji14] But would they make a public tease for it for a storage shed?

Fast Lane Plus Season Pass
calakapepe replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Hopefully it limits 1 pass per day per ride or something.. -
No hah, just in general sorry
-
I know~
-
I imagine the tunnel is one of the last things to be completed. Btw why do we specify midcourse tunnel when its the only tunnel on the coaster? [emoji14]

What are Kings Islands Plans after Mystic Timbers?
calakapepe replied to louisvillecards1's topic in Coming Attractions
Or Beast, or Lightning Rod, or Thunderbolt and Phantom's Revenge Maybe the hardness of the ground is different at Kings Island -
And was this bridge closed prior to 2007? I cant for the life of me remember the swan lake one. I do dislike that about Diamondbacks placement. [emoji14] that and its concrete slab of a "lake" haha
-
IIRC they literally told us that it would, (esp regarding the shed) so you are definitely thinking correctly [emoji14]
-
Maybe when it becomes necessary GCI can redo the entire track and get millennium flyers on there... Or Gravity Group can clean up their act and get their 2x1 trains to work if they retrack the entire thing [emoji14]
