  1. Yeah Coney island isnt as open as it once was what with part of their old land housing many major concerts every year.
  2. Ooohhh yeah. I remember that now
  3. Was there a secondary cam for Banshee?? I completely forgot about that if there was. I thought it was just the tower that became the Banshee cam.
  4. Construction updates will also be less frequent once the lift is closed off and we can't see anything I thought they'd put some up today since they had some guys walking the preset bents early this morning, but they might've only put one up. Its hard to tell if they even did that cause I only check in the morning and before dark.
  5. I agree! Tritotech can stick to the arcades and malls. I don't want their video screen rides at KI
  6. Thanks for the pix!
  7. I hope they love what they're doing and not just working 10 hours because they"need to"
  8. Idk about blood drums, but monster rock should be playing on the last Sunday. They have sunday shows regularly. Btw. I would reccomend to see Monster Rock. Lots of talent on that stage. You might wanna bring your ear plugs, but I really enjoyed it, despite it being a music revue. I've yet to see Blood Drums this year though, or hotblooded, but I'm sure HB is the same
  9. If they're anything like B&M's restraints for their newer trains (Banshee and on) then I'd have to disagree.. vekoma restraints on Firehawk are nice because they lock during loading so that they never get tighter or wont have a constant pull on you, they'll only keep you from going too far.
  10. I wonder how many rides actually exist that require a live performer though.
  11. If only we had Ouimet at the time of the TR license drop. Maybe some attempts to retheme to match Rivertown would've happened. Probably wouldn't have saved the ride ultimately I guess.
  12. GCI did it first!
  13. They'd complain about it being too painful if they made this coaster 200ft tall
  14. I disagree. They could. But they wouldn't HAVE to..
  15. Nope. October *hehehe
  16. I'm curious how many lay people actually know that happened.. and if they do, how old they are.
  17. So you don't care to see pictures if it's not park oriented? Random Photo more often than not is related to parks it seems. Not a challenge, still curious
  18. Yes and the headchopper that you'd get is what would be the most exciting thing. I always had fear that I'd get decapitated as we approached the bottom.. something that most headchoppers dont get to accomplish. SOB without the loop IMO was even more rough than with it. Not that it wasnt rough to begin with.. 2005 was particularly rough, I remember. I told myself that I should ride it only once per year because of how rough it was, despite it being a fun thrilling ride.
  19. These are all gorgeous pictures guys. But I'm confused why this is a separate thread from Random Photo of the day.
  20. Yes. Age limit is not the answer. It is the irresponsibility of the parents should a child find themselves in a place they can't handle... as long as a park makes known which mazes are more adult oriented.. which I don't think they do as of now. Though I know Hot Blooded makes some sort of warning of the mature nature before the show on the sign and right before the show starts.. kids still are watching as young as 5 it seems. One must remember there are some kids that are very mature and not so easily affected by whatever might make them freak out (scared, scarred, innapropriate behavior)
  21. They wouldn't HAVE to. If they waited until Dinosaurs Alive became extinct, then I agree that'd make the most sense. But if an expansion is something they wanted to do, and they still wanted DA to be separate.. They could relocate some games and wrap around the front of The Racer still missing the access road that'd likely stay to access the north side of the FOF spaghetti bowl.. if you were to sacrifice the current access road between FOF and Racer. It's not impossible to have a fully encompassed coaster. The topography? You can make a deck so the path stays relatively level.. not that hills are something people couldn't handle (see Holiday World and Dollywood etc.) There are other possibilities, I think
  22. I loved the ride (its gimmick). I'm glad it was done. I'm sure close to 30 people would disagree with me specifically.. But it wasn't all bad.
  23. As in my statement was incorrect Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I'm making fun of you using "your"
