Kings Dominion 5/16 PTR/VTR
Hey CF, how come they get all this cool theming!? Volcano's queue looks AMAZING. Their FOF's queue/entrance looks so much better than ours, and don't even get me started on their Crypt. Great PTR/VTR, as always.

First trip to KI since 1999
The Beast and FOC have those smells. Ohhh I love it. It's like drugs, man. I'm addicted to it.

2009 Cedar Point Opening Day PTR & VTR
Can't say I blame them. It's great that in its 10th season, Millie still draws in crowds like it just made its debut yesterday. You do mean 20th. Just correcting that. Maggie is 20 not Millie. Just correcting that. Oops, sorry, read it wrong.

Why not?
When it had the loop I hated it. I loved the loop, the height, the wind in my face.. I just hated the ride. When it re-opened, I decided to give it a try, and now I love it. Guess it depends on the person though..

Kings Island Will Be The Place To Be This Memorial Day Weekend!
Really? I kind of feel like that about KI at the moment.. I don't want to feel like this, but I just do. I love KI with all my heart, yet I just don't feel as excited about it as I used to.. :\ Maybe it's because I'm getting older or something.. I just don't know.

old top gun photos?
I was kinda wanting to see it too. But this is in the wrong section, be careful where you put threads.

Possible to fly out of DB?
No, it certainly is NOT possible to fly out of DB. Unless of course, you give yourself way too much room. I'm sure no ride attendants would allow that. What would that method be? I always end up stapled, except last Saturday on DB, I had so much room.

2009 Cedar Point Opening Day PTR & VTR
This made me even more anxious to get out there this summer! Great PTR, Angie!

What coaster would you like to see Kings Island get?
I would really enjoy a Journey To Atlantis type ride. Maybe themed to a flooded mine shaft in Rivertown? This probably won't happen, because we all know how much CF loooves heavy theming.

SRL policy on DP is ridiculous IMO
Do you use the same pass all day?
-
SRL policy on DP is ridiculous IMO
Oopsies, double post. Sorry.

SRL policy on DP is ridiculous IMO
Can someone explain to me how it works? Do you get the little SRL pass at the entrance to the ride? Or at the gate to the park?

May 16th TR
Hey guys. I went to the park today, there were supposed to be thunderstorms, so I thought that there wouldn't be that many people there. I was wrong. First Ride: Diamondback I looked at the webcam before I left, and there was no line, and I got there and it was a liiittle bit longer, but the line took about 20 minutes. Since I had an odd-numbered group, I was paired with a single rider, and sat down. I was able to give myself some room for airtime. It was really awesome. By the way, I saw Gabriel (Nemo), and he was singing Single Ladies in the ride-op booth. I yelled for him, but he didn't notice me. I would've gotten back on, but my group wanted to leave.. We decided to go to hit The Beast. It was my first ride this season, so I was very happy to get on. It was great, the tunnel wasn't as bad as before thanks to the re-tracking. Second Ride: The Beast After The Beast, my group split up, some went on The Crypt, but I heard the ride program changed, and skipped it for The Vortex. I took my little 5 year old brother for his first time on a looping coaster. He was really scared to ride it though, and almost had to force him onto it. We got into line, and I decided to sit in 7-1 because I heard a lot about that seat. Let me tell you, I was practically STANDING when I came down that first hill. It was SO awesome. My brother loved it, and he was so happy he did it. He said he was going to go to school and tell all his friends he went on The Vortex with his big brother. Third Ride: Vortex I called up my group, and they were still in line, so I went and did Spongebob 3-D. I had never done it before, so the 3-D effects were pretty cool, and it was a good ride. Fourth Ride: Spongebob 3-D. By this time, the group joined back together, and they said the Crypt sucked. So at that disappointment, we went and ate Skyline. I went off alone after eating to try and ride Diamondback again, but the SRL was closed and the line was full, and almost out of the queue. I wish it had been open, I could've re-rode. So my group was going to go to Drop Tower, but I just don't like that ride, and my little brother didn't want to ride it either. I took him on Congo Falls, and we stood on the bridge together for quite a while. He loved the puddles, and the big wave. When the first wave came toward us on the bridge, he said "Wow!" and laughed. Fifth Ride: Congo Falls And after that, my brother said he wanted to ride Son of Beast, but it was closed, and he was disappointed at that. I called, and they were still in line for Drop Tower, and then I took my 5-yr-old brother to go and ride Scooby-Doo. He beat me by 500 points! He was proud of himself at that too. He rode the Nick Jr. Drivers, and liked that, and then our last ride was the Sportacopters. While on that ride, he proclaimed to me, "LOOK IT'S SPONGEBOB!" when he saw Spongebob. He was just so excited to see him, and ran from the exit to give him a hug. We met up with our group after that and left. Sixth Ride: SDATHC Seventh Ride: Sportacopters Overall, I had a great day. Although it was a little bit more crowded than I had hoped, it didn't interfere with how much fun I had. Enjoy.

KI Man's RWW Photo TR: Just the Good Stuff
I stood by that lady taking the picture on my 2.5 hour journey to the Snake. I loved her! She was so funny, but I can't remember her name at the moment.. I do know she works the train, but I just forget her name. If anyone knows her screen name on here, pleaaase tell me?

SeaWorld's Manta -- NOW OPEN
Mm, okay thanks. Sure fooled me. I love the aquarium in the queue, it's sure to keep people in line occupied.

SeaWorld's Manta -- NOW OPEN
Oh my gosh, this ride looks beautiful. Kudos to Seaworld. Amazing. EDIT: During the splashdown part, does the actual train come into contact with the water?

PTR: Pilgrims Plunge Media Day
Personally, I think the ride looks great, but the station and landscaping are very poorly done.. Compared to Voyage's station, this reaaally stinks. Holiday world is a THEME park, and this looks like something, as an amusement park, CP would throw in. From what I've seen and heard, Ride: A- Landscaping: C- Great pictures though, I love the one with Santa coming down the hill.
