Oh, I took your comments that you have first hand experience with these types of wrestling events, only to find out, you don't. My family & I have been disrespected numerous times at different parks by teenagers who insist on smoking, line jumping, running through the park, and being in off-limit areas. Given your unexperienced criteria of what type of people attend these events, do you also suggest to not allow all teenagers into the park without parental supervision? I hate this stereotype almost as much as I hate this Half-Pint Brawlers idea. Adults often forget who raised these rowdy teens. Anyway. I despise the HPB. Last year's stunt honestly didn't bother me. But after seeing that video (and the title of it alone), I'm sickened.

I love love love Great Adventure. El Toro absolutely blew me away.

Canada's Wonderland announces WindSeeker
KI Kevin replied to Beast1979's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I hope KI's isn't named "WindSeeker." Also notice how the one at Knott's has a cool "K" on top of it. -
I remember my first time riding Beastie and crying the whole way
-
Um yeah right. That's completely ridiculous. At this point all hints point toward a GigAquatrax. It's really quite easy to see.
-
We left very early in the morning and it rained basically the whole way there. But it did not rain while we were in the park.
-
Did you go yesterday? I was there also.

Kevin, it was a TOGO stand-up that got me to like coasters in King Cobra. I've heard bad things about the ride like it being more than a tad bit rough. Unless it's EXTREME roughness I really don't mind it. I like rides like Georgia Cyclone, Son of Beast, and Invertigo, so unless it's as rough as rides like Dahlonega Mine Train and Mean Streak were to me then I'll more than likely be alright. Was it the restraints you didn't like? Well yeah, I hated the fact that the restraints aren't adjustable like the B&Ms. Other than that, there's extreme airtime in which you are LAUNCHED from your bicycle seat (not a good thing), awful transitions and the the loops hurts your legs 30495304968709873245 times more than Mantis does. It's short. I could really go on and on about things I didn't like about it. It's just not a good ride IMO.

I was there yesterday and rode Beast twice. Once around 7:30ish and another at about 10:30.

Tom I as just at KD for 2 days this week and Rode I305 no difference on the Trims on the first Drop. It picks the speed right back up and it rides just like it did when we went opening day. BTW Stayed on Dominator 10 times with out gettign off on Monday the park was dead the last hour it was open LOL. Oh i rode Shockwave for you to. One word - JEALOUS! You rode my two favorite steel coasters AND rode a TOGO stand-up that was closed on KD Opening Day that I couldn't wait to ride. Just wondering, do they trim Hurler at the bottom of its first drop? I remember the one at Carowinds having that trim off. Tom, IMO you didn't miss anything with Shockwave being closed haha.

LOL. Boo Blasters was fantastic at the beginning of the season sure but hardly anything of the effects work anymore. It's a fail.

^^YES! Holiday World is a great small park. The Voyage is a truly incredible coaster, and the employees are among the friendliest of any park. It doesn't get much better than Holiday World.

I've already got a Vater pad and a KORG metronome...and a pair of nice Vic Firth snare sticks. I play cymbals during pregame and during the game (on the bleachers) and during the actual show I'm playing marimba.
-
Oh and yes, East plays matched grip. Does your school?
PS How'd you know I was in marching band? XD
-
That'd be pretty dang awesome. Could you? IDK if I can go through another year in the pit, lol.
-
I'm hoping to make drumline next year. The only thing is is that there are 685490569 juniors on drumline and 1 senior...and 9 pit people trying to make drumline. Not to be ****y but I'd say I'm at least top 3 in the pit. In future years I hope to play snare and/ or tenors.
-
Well technically marching band at East doesn't start til 10th grade but if you got a I on a class A or B solo at contest then auditioned in front of the director you can get in. But all of the freshmen in percussion get stuck in pit so that's where I'm situated. What about you?
-
Is there any way to add coasters at fairs to your coaster count?
-
Chang was pretty fun. I loved it dearly but I gotta say I liked Scorcher and Riddler's Revenge much more.
-
I LOVED Houdini's Great Escape at Six Flags Great Adventure! Glad you had fun.
