You can most likely skip rides like Scarecrow Scrambler, Turkey Whirl, and those kinds of rides, but rides that you must go on are Liberty Launch, Pilgrim's Plunge, Gobbler Getaway, and Eagle's Flight. In the waterpark, try and ride everything. When I went last year I rode two slides and no Wildebeest.

New at Holiday World for 2012
jdawg1998 replied to Colonel_SoB_fan's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Please name one coaster at KI that is head-to-head better than any coaster at Holiday World. KI's coasters are, in comparison, trim braked, forceless kiddie rides that don't even leave you sore the next day! It's true when you think about it....Holiday World has three of the most fast paced, non stop speed rides I have seen. Heck, on the Voyage, every time there are brakes, it goes right back into full speed! -
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA. I don't get it.
-
My list: -Add more scenery and trees to Boomerang Bay's open areas. -Add a new slide to Boomerang Bay.... -Make Oktoberfest feel like Oktoberfest -Consider Sling Shot being in Action Zone (it's weird to have that in whats supposed to be a German themed area) -Add music to every roller coaster (while waiting in line) -Make Flight Deck a little bit more obvious to find (have signs that say "This way to Flight Deck") That's all mine.

That brought chills to my spine. It's just very sad how he was spending a fun day at the park, and due to a roller coaster he lost his life, even being bombed in Iraq. Safety is the biggest part of an amusement park. It's not the ride that took his life, it's the safety that did. He should not have been riding anything. His family is in my prayers.

It is a suspended coaster, known for swinging. It would not be fun if it was floorless...they could just take down the ride instead of switching the trains....
-
This is off topic but still about WindSeeker....but I would like to say today I loved the ride, because this is what they played while riding: How to Train Your Dragon is the best soundtrack ever made IMO, and I am SO happy KI used it!! Edit: I think it may have been this: Either way, still the best soundtrack ever..
-
Vortex is a fun ride. I don't understand how everybody loves The Beast when it is rough and can sometimes hurt. Vortex just bangs you around, while The Beast practically throws you from side to side.

Coney Island Python Coaster
jdawg1998 replied to jdawg1998's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
She loves riding rides. She did not hesitate to ride Kite Eating Tree, Race For Your Life Charlie Brown, or Scrambler...it just depends on how rough the ride is. She is so fragile for her age! -
Hey all! My family is going to Coney Island tomorrow (first visit in three years, and first with my little sister) and I was wondering if the Python coaster is suitable for my sister (Emily). On the website it is listed as 36" w/ adult. Emily is about 37", and is very small. I don't remember much about the ride, but is it rough, scary, fast (in the point of view of a 5 year old)? I know it's a hard question to answer, but it would be my sister's first tall and fast coaster (if you consider the Great Pumpkin Coaster at KI fast and tall, then it would be her second), and I would love for her to ride it.

Backlot Stunt coaster and Crypt closed today
jdawg1998 replied to sonofbeast214(v2.0)'s topic in Kings Island
Three launch zones? There's the main launch, then the launch where the helicopter shoots at you? Where's the third one? -
Once as of today. It was an alright ride. It was nice and relaxing, not very thrilling. The heights definitely scared me though!
-
Okay, so it's the same as always just with WindSeeker and Vortex, right? No more Planet Snoopy early entrance?
-
First question: Why would Kings Island take off the times for ERT on their website? I haven't remembered the times! Second (and main) question: Does somebody know the ERT for each and every day? Or for at least tomorrow?

Bert the Conqueror at Holiday World
jdawg1998 replied to XGatorHead 8904's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I just did that recently - I was at the Taste of Chicago, on the news - but you could see my mom's head and my hand. -
Avery's Adventures: Columbus Zoo and Zoombezi Bay PTR
jdawg1998 replied to PREMiERdrum's topic in Trip Reports
Wow, just wow. I did not realize how huge Columbus Zoo was! You'd think they'd make the whole place an all-inclusive resort named "Columbus Adventures" - no, seriously - that would be cool. -
Funny Or Die Rollercoaster Safety With Patrick Warburton
jdawg1998 replied to Beast Man's topic in Kings Island
That was so wrong, but so funny! What's funny is (besides the video), Patrick Warburton tells the safety concerns on Soarin at Disney World! (at least he did 4 years ago....) -
The Wilds to open Zipline Safari
jdawg1998 replied to PREMiERdrum's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Ahhh, I remember The Wilds. 'Twas a school field trip - in a large, hot, bus and one peanut butter jelly sandwich for a meal. Because of this experience I have wanted to go to The Wilds with my family, so we could do what we wanted instead of teachers and parent volunteers watching over us..... -
Because Wikipedia has one page of information, unlike others where there are pages and pages of it. And it has a table of contents, links to other pages and is easy to search for.
-
Yes, I know, I know - it's Wikipedia. But, most of the information on the site is true - several things for school projects I have proven by looking at another website.
-
Looking at Wikipedia, I see this: How is that true? What about Cedar Point? Can someone explain if this is true or if its not?
-
Well, I guess they're fast, it's just you don't move for about 10 minutes until they load the next people on.
-
Same here. It just takes forever to load. My family was driving past it and it was not running. A few miles down towards my grandparents home, you can see it. Still not running. Sounds like Delirium.

Top ten scariest rollercoasters at kings island
jdawg1998 replied to Michaeljackson's topic in KI Polls
1.) The Beast (feels like you are going to fly off the track) 2.) Flight of Fear (the build up. the ride itself isn't scary) 3.) Flight Deck (the end brake run makes you feel like you will fly off!) Now, coasters don't really scare me. But flat rides that do scare me are: 1.) Drop Tower (heights. scary.) 2.) Delirium (feels like you are going upside down) 3.) Woodstock's Whirlybirds (the tallest thing in the park).
