  1. I'm wondering what the wood is that is slanted at the far right center of the frame.
  2. hey hope to meet you at Carowinds on the 2nd!

  3. Yes, it's the same one! I for one love this video, makes me think how far the industry has come! Like you Snowman, I would have loved to ride the Sky Ride.
  4. 100% agree! I would love to see a complete overhaul on lighting for the rides. Even having some LED lights hitting the track of say The Beast or Diamondback would be awesome. I'd love to see lighting improvements on Vortex. Back to Delirium, I always think after I see the rendering of a ride how different will the look be. I know that it's just a rendering but if the park isn't going to do it, then why add the special lighting on it. Again GYK I totally agree with you on this one!
  5. I just looked at the ride rendering, apparently that piece is next to last piece to the top.
  6. WindSeeker Tower Being Lifted off truck Another picture from www.twitter.com/kingsislandpr These are massive! I'm stoked!
  7. From the parks twitter www.twitter.com/kingsislandpr Looks like the 4 new pieces have arrived at the park.
  8. Thank you, I'm quite aware of that, I'm originally from Columbus so I know 70 and Columbus well. My original comment was that Wilmington was north of KI, therefor maybe the parts were going to Cedar Point. In saying that I had a friend let me know that pieces were in Wilmington I was stepping aside from the comments about I-70 and speculating where the parts were going due to their appearance in Wilmington.
  9. I know someone showed pieces in Wilmington at a stop. Wilmington is north of KI, so maybe they were headed to CP.
  10. Echoing everyone else pretty much: Cargo Shorts (Zippers). I'd leave the cell phone in the car if possible. The less you take into the park, the better.
  11. Here's a list of Cedar Points early rides, prepare to be UTTERLY SHOCKED: Millennium Force, Raptor, Maverick, Iron Dragon, Planet Snoopy (seven rides) http://www.cedarpoin...point_perks.cfm Notice something missing? Why aren't they showing the SHINEY, NEW ride off as you put it? Also "hoping" had nothing to do with DB/Beast ERT's. When many peoples' gold/platinum passes were purchased, it was advertised!!! I promise I'm not trying to beat a dead horse here, just reiterating points missed by people who are posting comments that have obviously not read this whole thread. That site also says it's for 2010. They probably will just change it to 2011 but as of now, that's for 2010.
  12. Anyone else see a Squirrel standing on its back feet with a really long tail?
  13. I hear that ants can carry a ton of weight compared to their body size! Lol! Kidding of course. I would think that they'd carry it via crane and through "Snoopy's Starlight Spectacular/Extravaganza/Celebration" whatever the official title is, either go through the path by the dodgems or through the path next to the Diamondback Splash Pool to CM.
  14. According to the KI Twitter, there is another concrete pour today. Kings Island Twitter
  15. This evening while I was trying to see if Knotts or Wonderland had a webcam up for construction on WindSeeker at each respective park, I noticed that the Wonderland site is still the old Paramount format. http://canadaswonderland.com/index.cfm Wonder why since CF considers it one of it's top 4 parks. Are there any other sites that aren't updated to the CF Website format?
  16. I think this is a great idea! I am from about 30 minutes away from the zoo. The Columbus Zoo is my favorite zoo, not because it's my home zoo but because of what it has to offer. I've been to several zoos, some have been free entry, some have been cheap entry with hardly anything to offer. The Columbus Zoo is great because of the fact that you can spend a whole day to a weekend there. If there was a hotel added, I could only imagine what all would happen. I'd enjoy staying there, maybe going to an indoor water park, playing in the arcade, the next day going to Zoombezi Bay and then taking a night walk through the zoo that evening! Heck yes!
  17. Clarify for me if you would, do you need to ride Beast or Diamondback to live? No emergency there. I totally understand it SUCKS to have something like a benefit changed on you after you made a purchase. However, the park deserves that right. And I do have my grown up pants on. I've stepped aside from the situation and see both sides of it. I'm not telling you that "my view is the only view that matters." I'm just stating my opinions, they are up for discussion as long as its appropriate.
  18. Trying to have a good day

  19. I'm totally agreeing with everything in the past 5 posts. I did say get over and I meant it. If people on KIC continue to complain about how they're tiffed off because the park changed the ERT rides constantly who says the park won't get rid of ERT all together? Learn to appreciate what you are offered, what you have, how the park even sells season passes...some others can't afford passes, the perks for passes may not be the same always and so on. I see this situation like life, just because it's an emergency (issue) to you, doesn't mean it's an emergency (issue) to the park. There could be several reasons why they're doing ERT like this, this year. I say put on your grown up pants and enjoy what you have, learn to accept change and just have fun instead of picking out everything the park does wrong.
  20. All I gotta say is "Subject to Change". I have to echo Hendrick's remarks...you pay for the benefits by purchasing the gold pass. If you don't want them, that's why the have the regular pass. Now I understand some of you may have bought your passes before the change, yes that sucks. But get over it. If you're life is all about riding rollercoasters the park is offering up Vortex alongside WindSeeker. If you want to ride Diamondback and The Beast, the park opens generally to the public at 10am. Enjoy it then.
  21. I believe those are the plans for Diamondback. Thank you for your clarification on that! I see that now.
  22. i spy no lift hill, i do however agree with the part under The Racer. my vote, if even something for the everyday guest, is for a new area of the park. Where did you get this picture? What exactly is it? Obviously it's plans for something, but I just don't know where this is from.
  23. I like coasters. Don't get me wrong, but seriously 15 pages of "rumors" about one coaster is kind of ridiculous. While I believe that everyone has a right to post what they want, I can't wait for the Son of Beast rumors to no longer exist. I liked riding it pre 2006, now I wouldn't care either way if it stayed or if it left. Just wish we wouldn't constantly come up with theories/rumors/ideas about Son of Beast and let the park make the decisions and let us know when it's time to know.
