What's Up With Snoopy's Starlight Spectacular?
PKIVortex replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
I was disappointed with Star Light this year too. It was pitiful! Kings Island please just turn it off, I would be embarrassed to even announce it or print it in my entertainment guide! -
I will say it again, those footers were used during Winterfest in 2005. It for the theming of White Christmas Express!

Uh Vortex crew sucks. They stack trains way way too often. When I was there a couple of weeks ago they were stacking every train while I was in line. I was annoyed!

Intimidator 305 Closed: Cable Lift Problems
PKIVortex replied to sethdawg17's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Okay I must be remembering the fact that they never fully loaded the ride! That is probably what I'm thinking about during the Paramount Days. Then Cedar Fair removed the row for the transformation into The Crypt! -
The fee is $5.99 now? I thought it was $5.00?

Intimidator 305 Closed: Cable Lift Problems
PKIVortex replied to sethdawg17's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
During the transition from Tomb Raider to The Crypt, the front row of the gondola was removed so the gondola could be reduced in weight. This would, in theory, allow for a more acrobatic ride cycle to make up for the lost theming. The new ride cycle tore up the machinery more than the TRTR cycle so the cycle was yet again changed to the less intense two-flip cycle. If I can recall correctly, the ride opened with a two flip cycle and closed with a similar cycle. This happend way before the ride was transformed to the Crypt! Paramount was the one who reduced the rows of the gondola not Cedar Fair! -
Diamondback does not have sand. It roared when it first opened, but do to complaints the wheels were changed and that's why it's not as noticeable now.

I'm sure Saturday will be INSANE! Sunday will probably be busier than a usual Sunday, I except Monday to be busy but not overly busy!
-
Great report so far! Glad you had a fun, can't wait to read more!

Gold or Platinum Season Passes for the Bring a friend for 19.99 deal!

Was Fast Lane even needed on Sunday? I was at CP and the park was on the slow side, I felt sorry for the ones who wasted Money on Fast Lane, as most rides were either walk on or less than a 30 minute wait. To me that isn't worth the extra money a Fast Lane cost.

The park opens at 6pm for Friday night Haunts! If your referring to the park not opening till 7pm on Saturday the 21st, it's because the park is closed to the general public during the day for a private event. The Park opens to the public at 7pm that night for the start of Haunt!

That video was taken in the fall of 1998 while the ride was being repainted for the all new Action Zone to debut in 1999! And the ride only lasted another 3 years after.

Now Friday's Nights are far less Busier then Saturday Nights, but Friday nights are still on the crowed side!
-
Friday Nights are not DEAD! I have been to Haunt on Friday Nights and had to park in Over Flow parking!

I know it was not the tragedy that happens, cause I used to walk up to the 50 foot platform when I was a younger, from the late 80s to the early 90's. I'm sure ADA had a lot to do with it!

I hate Spiders, and do not like snakes either!

Knotts WindSeeker to be Relocated?
PKIVortex replied to Ride On_17's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I do know they are a section of Worlds of Fun that WindSeeker from Knotts would fit in just fine, and no need to repaint! -
Banshee: World's Longest Inverted Coaster
PKIVortex replied to Coasterama's topic in Coming Attractions
I would be shocked if Banshee isn't included with early ride times next year! -
It don't appear so. Last week though they said soon, So I would say it's just a matter of time! I'm sure the transfer track will be first, as these are the first pieces we have seen.
