So I went to KI last wedensday on my way to wapakoneta ohio. I go to KD reguarly so it was nice to see a park that was similar to it. I like the layout of KI better than KD but KD has more trees and not as much asphalt. OK.... so we got there at 9 and waited for them to open the gates and when they did, everyone just walked in and they wernt checking any bags. do they always do this? cause I could have brought anything I wanted into the park, if I knew they were gonna do that I would have packed food. We started off by going to Firehawk because ive never been on a flying coaster before and we walked on the front row cause we were one of the first people there and first ride was awesome! felt like I was gonna fall out of my restraints but I like that stuff. the second ride was kinda boreing but I liked the first. Then we went to Diamondback which is one of my favorite coasters now! I have to reconfigure my top ten list. After that we went to The Beast and that is now my favorite wooden coaster, I just wish they didnt have the trims on the first drop. then we went on Vortex, and a few rides over there. The Xtreme Skyflyer and Sling Shot were great and I wish KD had a discount thing we paid 10 dollars for both drop zone had too long of a wait and the one at KD has a bigger drop so I didnt care if I went on that. Flight deck was pretty boreing and had a long line. I wish Son of Beast was open cause it looks awesome! Overall had a great trip to a park I hadent been to before! you guys have a pretty nice park. on a side note does someone post on here with a Diamondback shirt(I think) with all of your rides on the back? It was at 2900 when I saw it well I was right behind you. and im pretty sure I saw a couple people from this website that I reckonized from seeing at KD opening day.

yournamehere replied to DaveStroem's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
the I305 facebook said there are no new trims on the ride but I dont know how accurate this is. -

Kings Dominion ... What To Expect?
yournamehere replied to kerry1150's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
If youve never been before or havent been in a while dont go until a few weeks after it opens with I305 at top priority for opening the other rides only had one train go through maintinance so 1 train for about every ride for the time being. I305 no one knows there is a single rider line so just go to that you get on really quick! -
Cedar Fair & Apollo Deal DEAD
yournamehere replied to Losantiville's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Thats the best news ive ever heard! trust me nothing but bad things would have happened if Cedar Fair was sold to apollo. -
I305 is the most intense coaster ive ever been on, line moves very fast rode 8 times yesterday! one of the trains broke at like 5ish so they had to switch to one train operation which hurt the line hopefully they have it fixed for today the park should be very crowded. Volcano, dominator, grizzly, fof, all had one train operating and fof wasnt working properly for the first half of the day.

Well according to rob from tpr it "eats millennium force and craps it all over Cedar Point". Ill post my official comments tommorow after I ride it.

When it was open Hypersonic XLC at KD felt the fastest to me. there was nothing that compared to its acceleration.

That KD teaser video was made by a fan, not Kings Dominion. -
thats what I was thinking, when I was at Cedar Point, maverick was never down and it was the best one in the park, and the lines moved really quickly. EDIT: ok it was down for like 20 minutes because of rain but we were inside and we all sang happy birthday to this random girl. when were you there? Last wedensday and thursday

KI needs to get an Intamin roller coaster! if they get one it will be the perfect park.

UFO Over Kings Dominion?
yournamehere replied to RailRider's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Didnt you guys hear the latest news? They captured the ufo and put it inside Flight of Fears queue! -
When I went to Cedar Point for the first time last year(almost exactly one year ago) someone lost their phone on top thrill dragster and it almost hit the guy standing in the entrance so he stopped everyone and gave a safety speil and let us ride.

Why is it only 128? you would think they would round to 130 or something -

The had been around for a while I think their celebrating 40 years this year and yes TTD cost money but the fact that they had been around for a while probably influenced Cedar Fair to build it. The new track design saves money with supports spread out further -

Because they don’t know how reliable they would be. They could cost them tons of money in problems. I think you can count on premier or Intamin. Hopefully Intamin -

I highly doubt Cedar Fair would just go to a new company -

that’s the new premier track they are using it on the F1 coaster at Ferrari world. And you cant just say because its premier it wont be a giga, they could finally be ready for that or it could be the worlds fastest coaster but premier is awesome. -

I don’t think they delivered them to the wrong park. I think they were damaged in the recent storms(which were really bad) and they had to ship them back to Intamin for fixing. Or they could be moving them back behind tidal wave bay because there is a stack of wood back there identical to the kind the supports were sitting on in the parking lot -
