lmao i just realized that like 2 years ago =X

Why is Diamondback 80mph and Behemoth is only 78mph when they are almost identical coasters?

that was fun reading. haha and yes the tunnels on AE smell like a porta potty! one of them almost makes you gag! haha but glad to hear you had a good time. =]

it still goes almost upside down. i just rode it yesterday

i would spend a lot of money on theming. and upgrade Flight of Fears theming and Backlot Stunt Coaster and def. Adventure Express. I would for sure paint Top Gun and i agree with what everybody else is saying pretty much haha.

I love "The Beach" we go every year once. i think its worth it. we always have fun you should try it

That would be awesome,!

i'm going too. i went on fathers day last year and it wasn't to busy so i hope its like that this year haha

i think its funny how similar they are. I must say I like Diamondbacks much better though. not just cause I like it but its catchier than the Behemoth one. run for it? or your first ride could be your last!

haha i thought it was interesting when i first went to Kings Island i thought that the Flight of Fear inside where the ufo is was a huge room and it was a fully round ufo. i thought this for many years until i discovered the mirrors. i think that was very clever of them haha how lame i know haha

haha me too! that's crazy

haha that made me laugh

agreed! Flight of Fear would not be the same coaster without all of the theming! i love that ride so much!

Diamondback is now my personal favorite. I love Cedar Point, but i do think that Diamondback beats all of them in my opinion. If it doesn't beat them it is a close tie.

That's nice. It really does look like a nice little park and it look really clean like you said. thanks for sharing!

I love Disney World!!! and the lines shouldn't be near as long as Cedar Points so that's a plus. i'd get there a little before they open. The Steel Coasters Diamondback- the new one. Description:It's tallest, fastest and meanest roller coaster to ever strike Kings Island. Diamondback stands 230 feet at its highest point with a first drop of 215 feet at a 74 degree angle and snakes its way around 5,282 feet of track in excess of 80 miles per hour! The ride features 10 vertical drops overall including drops of 193, 131, 129, 110 and 106 feet, two helixes – one at 323 degrees and the other at 287 degrees – and a spectacular splashdown ending. Firehawk- second new one haha it's like flying description: Thrill flyers experience heart-pounding excitement as Firehawk soars through more than ½ a mile of steel tracking. Willing adventure seekers lie down to experience this 51 mph., top-secret, all-altitude airborne mission. But they’re certainly not relaxing – within seconds, each pilot is facing the ground, experiencing the inconceivable feeling of human flight. Flight of Fear- inside dark coaster and a personal favorite Description:Face your darkest fears as you are catapulted from 0-54 mph in just 4 seconds through 4 inversions on the world's first linear induction launch coaster! Named the best new ride by industry experts during it's opening season, don't miss your chance to feel the pulse-pounding excitement this year! The Vortex- just amazing Description:Once The Vortex gets you in his grip, you’re his forever. The first lift hill will lift you twelve stories into the sky. And that’s just the beginning. You’ll be rocketed along 3,800 feet of track at speeds exceeding 55 mph through two vertical loops, one corkscrew, one boomerang turn, and a 360-degree helix. All in all, Vortex will turn you head-over-heels upside-down a grand total of six times. So feel the grip of Vortex. And then, just try to break free. top gun- it gives you a weird feeling but it is still awesome. now called "Flight Deck" Description:Take flight and soar over the tree tops. This seventh generation steel suspended coaster wings over 2,352 feet of track at speeds in excess of 51 mph! Backlot Stunt Coaster- short but fun Description:On the Backlot Stunt Coaster, riders experience what it is like to be a stunt car driver as their car races out onto the track. Each car is tricked out with audio special effects that add to the multi-sensory sensation of the experience, and as the stunt cars peel out, riders are transported into the stunt chase sequence. Drivers twist through a parking garage, dodge near collisions, race down stairs, chase through tunnels and narrowly escape massive explosions triggered by gunfire from a helicopter. Invertigo- breaks down a lot and least favorite of the park Description:Sit back and witness the terror flash in the eyes of your fellow riders as you experience the only face-to-face inverted roller coaster in the Midwest! Scream your face off as you are lifted up a 138 foot hill and then released to soar through a 72 foot tall loop and two inversions at speeds of over 55 mph! Adventure Express Description:Take a fantastic adventure on a runaway mine train. This coaster is perfect for those looking for a break from our more intense coasters The Wooden Coasters The Beast- amazing and very long but take some tylonel before or after this ride cause its guaranteed to give you a headache Description: Come feel the excitement as The Beast – arguably the greatest wooden roller coaster ever built – unleashes its awesome power on the unsuspecting. This coaster sprawls across a densely-wooded, 35 acre site. It is topographical, so the rugged, natural terrain adds to the excitement. The Beast is the longest wooden coaster in the world at 7,400 feet (1-3/4 miles); travels at speeds approaching 70 mph and has a ride length of nearly four minutes. It features two incredible vertical drops (135 and 141 feet) and has three dark tunnels, plus a spectacular 540 degree helix turn at the end. Son of Beast Description:If the father scared you, wait until you ride the son! The Tallest, fastest wooden coaster on the planet will send you screaming down it's 214-foot hill at speeds over 78 mph. You've never experienced anything like this before. Not anywhere. Not ever. The Racer Description: The twin-tracked Racer is a traditional wooden out-and-back coaster and credited for re-igniting the coaster building boom in the early 1970’s, thus beginning the second golden age of the roller coaster. To honor The Racer’s staying power, the American Coaster Enthusiasts named this popular ride an “ACE Roller Coaster Landmark” during a ceremony at the park last year, making it one of only 14 coasters in the world with landmark status. In addition, The Racer is also notable for its appearance in the Cincinnati Kids episode of The Brady Bunch, filmed at the park in 1973. my two favorite flat rides are the Drop Tower and Delirium. I got all of the descriptions from the Kings Island Website. www.visitkingsisland.com I would start off with the big ones first. like Firehawk because it has one of the longest lines throughout the day along with Flight of Fear. top gun usually always has a short wait. Diamondback I would hop on early when they first open or when they're bout to close, but i've been there and rode it throughout the whole day and at its busiest the wait was only 45 minutes! We usually never have a schedule as to which ride to get on next we just hop on. I have never waited over 2 hours for any ride. Firehawk was the longest i have ever waited in line for a ride. Delirium doesn't open right away so just catch it when it does open. We always catch The Beast at night. and the Son of Beast gets a long line quickly also so catch it early if possible. Drop Zone's *Drop Tower now* line moves pretty well considering it loads in bulk. Don't even waste your time with The Crypt. The line will get long and the ride has changed and there is slim to no effects in it and they changed the program so it is way tame. Trust me. As for food; we always eat in the Festhaus building. I believe it is number 6 on the online map. Its located right behind Delirium. It has a little bit of everything. from cheeseburgers and french fries. to pizza, chicken fingers, mac and cheese, and salads to chinese food. The cheeseburgers are a personal favorite of mine. French fries are just the normal french fries haha the chicken tenders are pretty good also. I love larosas pizza. which is what they have. It can sometimes be extremely greasy so if you don't like grease you may not want the pizza. haha Some other tips: -If you are extremely thirsty and don't feel like paying 3 dollars for a bottle of water or a 4 dollar pop; you can walk up to almost any food place outside and they will give you free ice water in a cup. we take like a ice mountain bottle of water and after we drink that we just fill them up with the free ice water haha -If you like pretzels with salt. theirs are covered with tons of salt, which i believe is to make you even more thirsty and buy more 3 dollar drinks haha so i usually just get one with no salt. -do NOT wear flip flops. your feet will be killing you. -order your tickets online to get a discount if your work doesn't already offer discounted tickets. you might want to check. -if you have a season or platinum pass you get certain discounts on ride photos and such. -if there are line jumpers; simply report them but DONT let them ruin your day! - you can go here and kind of take a look and sketch out your day if you'd like. I'd download the higher resolution map because it is way bigger haha http://www.pki.com/visit/visit_park_map.cfm I hope I answered all of your questions. If you have any others please feel free to ask me anytime. I love helping people and informing them about Kings Island! Kings Island and Disney World are my two favorites! Thanks for reading! Hope you have a great trip!

I absolutely hate wooden coasters! sorry for everybody that loves them. They're so... umm painful? for me haha i don't think thats the word i'm looking for but you know what i mean? I will admit that The Beast is my favorite wooden coaster, but I try to avoid all wooden coasters whenever possible. I always get a headache even after tylenol haha and the occasional bruise haha. but i absolutely love steel coasters! In my opinion, they are much more enjoyable and fun for me. *like Diamondback, and Flight of Fear, and Firehawk, and all of them haha* the roughest steel coaster for me is probably The Vortex and i even then it is still one of my favorites.

These are the shoes I have now exactly and i absolutely love them!

This is a great video, but it makes it look like it goes so slow. here's the link because i'm not sure the video is working.

i know! I just don't how people can do that. I mean i know its something small but dang have some manners. you know?

So as i was going through the line of Diamondback i noticed somebody's name written and scratched at least 5 times in different places. I want to say it was "bodine09" everywhere but I'm not sure of the exact name. I just find this to be so rude and disrespectful! It's a brand new ride and people are already vandalizing it! Its just despicable and it makes me so mad! I wish that kid would get caught! anybody else agree?

haha "Terpy" cracks me up.

I don't miss much from them but the two things that i do miss are: all of the music in the lines and when you walk in the names of the rides and..... now i'm over it

That's cool. Thanks for sharing

oh my,! That's cool. and I am a huge fan of Diamondback but i doubt i would ever get a permanent tattoo of it haha but its still cool.
