^ Maybe he's friends with some "suits" that will give him a piece.
-
How is Firehawk relevant to the conversation? Edit:nevermind
-
^ That's considered suspended?
-
And what 2 are those? I was under the impression that FAAC was inverted, Invertigo was inverted, and Flight Deck was suspended. In my book that's 1 suspended, and 2 inverted.
-
^ You can say that again. Just thought I'd play along. .
-
I'm just trying to clarify what you said, by CGI did you mean GCI as in Great Coasters International? or is there a company that I've never heard of called CGI?
-
^ Do you mean suspended, like Flight Deck, or inverted, like Raptor at CP, because we definitely need an inverted coaster. No park needs 2 suspended coasters.

It's HUSS and Paramount's fault, HUSS makes giant versions of smaller rides, those giant versions always have heavy amounts of downtime,look at The Crypt and Delirium (Does MaXair have as much downtime as its clone?), Paramount was just stupid enough to buy both of them.

My friend Beef and I were in the middle of the FoF queue when the storm hit ( lucky us). By the time that the storm cleared so many people had left the building that we were in the spaceship part of the queue. I thought that the staff did a great job keeping the crowds informed and under control.

Kings Dominion Tips
dudecoasterman replied to dudecoasterman's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
The only problem that we would have with going to BGW is the cost, there are 4 of us going so that's almost $300. The only reason that we could even go to KD is the fact that 3 of us have Platinum passes so only one would have to pay. I was also wondering would the fact that we are probably going on a Saturday mean that there will be more crowds? or will the crowds still manage to be pretty light? -
It's probably just a combination of the obscene heatwave that hit this summer and the maintenance paths for Adventure Express and Flight Deck.
-
The front/back are the best seats on Invertigo. The front is also the best seat on Flight Deck, Mantis, Raptor, and The Beast. I actually got to ride The Beast in the front for the first time on Friday and it was amazing.
-
Even when a decision has been made how do we know that it will be made public? Maybe CF will make the decision and just go through with it without telling anyone.
-
I love the ride, it isn't extreme and intense but its fun and has good positive gs and good airtime if you are in the right seat. It's also been very smooth when I've ridden it.

Kings Dominion Tips
dudecoasterman replied to dudecoasterman's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Thanks GYK, I will definitely try to ride as much as possible, I completely forgot that they have their own version of Crypt and I also overlooked their FoF and WindSeeker because I thought they would be very similar. I also don't really like Drop rides but I will check theirs out to see how different it is from ours. -
I am going on vacation the week of July 14th with my family and a friend, we are going to be stopping by Kings Dominion for a day trip. I was wondering if anyone had been there and had tips on things to ride,things to eat, and things to do. Everyone that is going rides rides of all sorts and is tall enough to ride everything. I already plan on riding the following. Intimidator 305, Dominator, Volcano: The Blast Coaster, Hurler, Berserker, Shockwave, and Anaconda. Are there any other rides that we should ride? Is there a specific order that things should be ridden? and Should we get fast passes?

Silver Dollar City 2013 Coaster
dudecoasterman replied to Captain Nemo's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
It's also on top of the lawsuits that it has caused. -
I love the second turn on Flight Deck when you fly over the station, and the camel backs on Magnum at CP (in row 3 only).
-
My family stayed at the Hampton in Milan on 250 but that might be a crowded road since you aren't going the first weekend in June.

What Kind of Merchandise Would You Like to see at Kings Island?
dudecoasterman replied to TheCrypt's topic in KI Polls
I would love to see a larger variety of t-shirts, maybe some with retro logos and logos for defunct rides like King Cobra or The Bat. I would also like a larger amount of poster designs. -
Beast Incident 06-26-2012. Height Requirement Issue?
dudecoasterman replied to Cody's topic in Kings Island
Oh my god, that sounds terrible. I hope that this doesn't turn him off of coasters. If I was that age and that happened to me I'd be pretty scared of rides.I hope he is okay. -
Does Kings Island need a New Wooden Roller Coaster?
dudecoasterman replied to TheBEASTunchained's topic in KI Polls
I would love to see KI getting an Intamin or GCI wooden coaster and I think it would definitely be possible to get a GCI or Intamin but maybe not a Gravity Group. Am I the only one that has noticed that GG has only worked with small independent parks and no large chain parks? -
I would love a small but forceful B&M invert like the Batman clones or a large dive machine like Griffon.
-
Ah, I thought that sounded quite warm. Even for the deep south.
