You can go and not do any scary mazes too. Just make sure you know when you're in a scare zone. Edit- but Im not trying to persuade you. Its your life

Intamin new speed boat ride
calakapepe replied to rlentless's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
There wasnt ever one in Cincy. Near, at Kentucky Kingdom.. I think during Six Flags days, but I'm not entirely sure. I can't seem to find of video of the ride. But it's the lot next to Thunder Run and it was a ride like this one. (which is also removed) https://youtu.be/RtrOe4sdiuI -
Intamin new speed boat ride

Yes.. and the dragster side by side type ride near Cincinnati was left as an empty lot many years ago. Not a new concept, new application. If it could be made to work well, and successfully installed somewhere, I think it would be fun to be on and it'd truly be a sight to see even.. esp. With the fire tail... who doesn't like fire? (At a safe distance) -
I thought they had a ferris wheel in there from 09 to '11. *confused* It even had some lights. Not LED though.

I'd enjoy a dark-ride be well done in the current building we have a dark-ride.. Not necessarily a shoot em up ride, but it'd probably be just that. I think if the ole' Tomb Raider building isn't ever leveled, which would be nice for expansion, it'd make a suitable building for a far more complex dark ride than you usually see.. something that utilizes most of the building's space.

For the record, they are LSMsLinear Synchronized Motor -
Any photo? Yes [emoji14] One that only an employee could see? Probably not. Hopefully not. If you find one, it's probably best not to post it here.

Intamin new speed boat ride

I agree, I admire that of them. But some things are more important to me after a multi-hour trip. The rides are great for gettin people in, but when they don't deliver consistently, they're not going to help with the frequent flyers. -
The only commercial song that I recall (from last year) Is "Hooked on a Feeling" by Blue Swede That's only one portion of the maze and the rest is a grocery store-esque tune interrupted by dialogue of a man trapped and then being mauled; not malled, it's a stand alone store. [emoji14] Oh and the groans and grunts of... certain people. But not me.. so, not important.

Intamin new speed boat ride

Id rather Intamin work on reliability issues before they try something so innovated. It's very frustrating sometimes getting in line for the same ride only to have it break down on you several times.. -

It's almost like they were trying to get Cedar Fair's attention showing those clips of Cedar Point. -

You must not understand the physical demand for singing and/ or performing stunts. -Someone who has performed singing. Someone who has performed stunts. Example: She still sounds okay, but it really sacrificed the singing quality to do all these stunts/ dances/ lifts whichever word you prefer. Singing while doing really physical things is do-able, but it's extremely taxing and can and often does sacrifice proper, SAFE singing in order to hit your notes on pitch without the breath support that you normally have.

Also see Backlot Stunt Coaster.

I'd prefer some Mack goodness But.. physical reality

The Mantis to Rougarou change-over did nothing to reduce head banging. All it did was make it a little more rideable for people with tired or weak legs. I hope that Vortex will at least make it to KI's 50th anniversary though.

RMC's Single track coaster concept
calakapepe replied to Tr0y's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
How this makes it "better" and not just different is beyond me. There's presumably no welding to make the track segment right? If there is I don't see how this is any more of an improvement than B&M or Intamin etc. construction style. The whole plug and play kind of erection. I also don't see this track being able to do anything that normal track can't. -
RMC's Single track coaster concept

RMC makes hybrid tracks, often with wooden supports. They also make steel coasters.
