The only thing I want removed is the blacktop from the park, and more detail to Starlight, it could be great, but it's kinda...untouched Why must people remove rides and stuff, just expand on what we have lol Also permanant Ferbreze sprayers by X Base...always smells like guest illness and trash..one of the only things I don't like in the park
-
The Heartline was intense...Rumor has it for what I heard working there was when Intamin's employees got on it, one blacked out completely, and then they looked at it and also realized it was ganna tear the trains up...Again, second part was what was said, first part was rumor I heard quite alot, and to me kinda made sense (they tested sans people fine, once people testing commenced, it got pulled)

I don't mind Maverick sans theming.. If it had this theming though...I'd be very very happy...What I really don't like is seeing, hey, this is the ride, sweet, look what we are ganna do, then it doesn't show up. This is why I take renderings and CGI stuff with a grain of salt. Until it's there, confirmed, and proven, I'll wait to see if KI uses tombstones with fog and stuff every night for Banshee, and CP with some of their changes to stuff for their 2014 artistic rendering...

Like I said, I've never had any restraint problems...I typically ride 1-3 on maggie, prefer right side restraint sits fine with one click above resting on my thighs, two clicks is a full staple... Ah well, pain is subjective, as well as body types..Sucks you're not enjoying what I still consider to be one of the best coasters ever created -
KI didn't like the video But Don shared said video... Funny
-
Also mind you look at the Maverick announcement POV, there was supposed to be alot more than just that tunnel... Heartline roll, water elements, rocks, structures, ect... None of that
-
I don't think anything will be coming down over the next few years. Rides are still getting good ridership and honestly next season I expect KI to get some good attendance with Banshee in the park. If anything comes down or gets relocated I can only see the Crypt building getting remodeled or torn down

Totally agree with ya man... Beast this season now for me is just a passtime and a joy to ride, I have discovered the very back middle row is quite fun for the first hill and daytime rides. Diamondback I can't even ride my favorite seat anymore, it's too rough, and it's fun, but it's gotten a tad boring. I think this is what happens when you ride the rides too much and go to the park too frequently. When working CP, KI was a nice treat for me to go down every now and then, now it seems reversed...ah well -
What do you picture when someone says "roller coaster"?

How to apply for a job at kings island and cedar point
thedevariouseffect replied to CP&LERR Fan's topic in Kings Island
CP you have to be 18, no exceptions unless you're local and will work in foods/merch/games, rides is 18+ only (as it should be IMO) KI is free reign for minors and majors...So yellow tag it up -
Nice...I may skip out on a bit of the mid afternoon stuff to go grab lunch and stuff, it all depends, but this looks really awesome, and very exciting. Few more days chaps
-
Hm it's surprising to see that the track ships with the motors and everything intact, probably ready to basically plug and play, but no prox, limit switches, ect... Interesting, learning something every day
-
They aren't making up for operator error...They're making a restraint that is safe according to ASTM standards.. I don't think the company makes stuff like that because the parks have operator errors...if that was the case they wouldn't sell them to the same parks with the same operator errors
-
I just wanna go in that place just to see if anything from Crypt remains...I'd love to go where the old control booth was sitting and see the view... But will probably never happen...

thedevariouseffect replied to Ki Man's topic in Trip Reports
How about this, leave room in the restraint and don't staple haha, then hold the bar up.. But ah well...Alot of people have problems with restraints, I haven't been on one ride that was just uncomfortable always...maybe random positional uncomfort such as mantis at times, but nothing where I say, wow that was terrible.. Must have a gifted body or something I guess -
Lol..yesterday the convo for us was nothing but talking interval, hidden CP secrets and stuff haha Good times
