You know.. Two things, Two parking entrances. Virtually everyone has experiences, matches two parking entrances, everyone has gone into them, almost. Plus they've been around since 1972, as far as I know. PLUS the western-row reimagined.
-
A trademark would have been purchased around the same time the "Valravn" trademark was purchased. But I also wonder about the Blackout for haunt. There is no trademark for that, unless Haunt attractions do not get trademarked?
-
Kings Island didn't own Thunder Road.
-
Kings Island would not get rid of The Racer.. But I am questioning Action Theater. Would anyone like to get a photo to see if any of the "Urgent Scare" items are in place right now? Since a lot of other haunts are being worked on?
-
Plot twist, Horizon an Intamin Launch coaster designed by Kings Island fan CoasterOhio is coming to the park in 2016!
-
So what woodie at Kings Island would you want to get an RMC treatment?
CoasterOhio replied to Oldschool75's topic in KI Polls
If I had to actually pick. I would honestly go with The Racers. I think It would be a cool RMC coaster. -
Wel. They are setting up haunts early. The one haunt by Scrambler is already being built up.
-
They only painted King Cobra, They didn't retheme the whole ride. Besides. The season is coming to a close, they're probably getting a head start on maintenance for the ride. That means no more slowing down on The Bat for the rest of the season most likely. And if the park was going to scrap it, they might've posted something by now stating the day of the last ride or something. The ride is still popular, the attendance is low because it's in the back of the park, but If they put a few rides over there, the line would be longer, and it wouldn't seem like a waste of time to ride The Bat which is all the way down a hill, and in a really secluded area of the park.
-
Why would they scrap the ride after just putting the money in to retheme the ride a little over a year or two ago? Seems like money wasted to me. If they were going to scrap it, they would've kept the Flight Deck theme to it.
-
Just saw two people who know how to make Woodstock gliders work. Because they were able to snap. And able to hit their cars together haha
-
I've had no difficulty in really snapping the ride. Even with the new ones. Which is the Only ones I've ridden. I've been able to get close to turning the ride around beyond the perpendicular direction the ride goes and snap it towards the ground even to a point in whic the ride will jolt forward because I've slowed it down that much ( just the car I a in thank you. )
-
Okay seriously. What was the point of bumping a post from 10 years ago? No point.
-
And 5. But they only add 3 extra inches of room.
-
Where are you at Ohio? Everywhere is packed. I'll meet up with you.
-
I'm questioning comes in Planet Snoopy. And surf dogs closing.
-
People already knew he worked at Diamondback. There is even a thread about it.
-
The Diamondback crew does their best to get the trains out. I don't get why we are bashing on Diamondback so much when sometimes Banshee will stack, there are plenty of reasons for a train to stack. And it can not be sluggish Ride-operators. When I rode Diamondback this last Tuesday, I saw the DB crew working as hard as they could to send out trains (Note, they sent my train out quite quickly) and I've seen them send trains up the lift and are almost at the top before the other coaster even hits the Splash Down. So they DO get trains out at a fairly good place. But there are MANY reasons on why a train will stack. Heavy-set people. People not following the 'Shoes Must Be Worn Policy' People not buckling up the seat-belt before putting the restraint down, resulting in the Driver unlocking the restraint or something similar to buckle up the rider. People taking a long time to put stuff in a bin. Not wanting their drinks to spill-over in the bin, because that'll be a bigger problem. I'm actually getting a bit upset that people are bashing the park workers who try their hardest each and every day to make sure it is the best day at the park. Sure sometimes things happen, but they truly do try their best. Mod edit: work information removed

Kings Island has plenty of space, they can easily move them over to the far side of Firehawk if anything, between FOF, AE, and Firehawk. Or go deeper into the woods where the fireworks are located.
-
You know we're talking about an ARROW designed and manufactured ride right? You know. A ride that will try to destroy your head due to roughness? And a ride that is beginning to be harder to maintain due to parts missing. Yes it's still could be fun but it's starting to really run its course in history. Maybe a few more years.
-
For shark. The associates had a rides night in which workers hey go ride some rides at night. That area happened to be the rides night location. Thus they had to clear out the lockers because of this.
-
My phones auto correct. And me not being able to fix it due to KIC's weird mobile site. I meant to say maintenance vehicle
-
No. That's a marine nice vehicle it's behind the ride on the path to the Back half.
-
Figured I would make a discussion about how long Vortex really stands. Someone talked about Vortex not having much time left, Arrow is a dying breed of coasters. So I thought I'd make a discussion, and poll about it. Yeah, obviously Vortex is still a popular ride, but as maintenance for the ride becomes more scarce, how long would it be before the ride has to close because of maintenance costs, and or not enough parts? We had the chain issue a few years ago, and it took a while before they could finally get it replaced. But what if we have a more serious issue, like wheel fracture, or frame fracture of the ride? Or just need a replacement wheel axle that is no longer available, or brake. It's hard to know what exactly can happen to the ride, but something will happen soon.
-
I feel like they may have taken the stage down due to rain, maybe they don't want the stage to get wet. Even if the chance is 20% it can still rain. It's happened plenty of times.

Skunks have been in the park for a while now. And they're everywhere.
