  1. Cedair Fair should just move Shockwave to Worlds of Fun and call it a day.
  2. I don't think we will see Vortex be removed for decades to come, if they do however remove it, a multi looping B&M floor-less coaster would suffice.
  3. Coasterforce was given a behind the scene tour by the owner and mastermind behind RMC, Fred Grubb. Mr. Grubb showcases the "innovation" going on at RMC. Video in link: In my opinion tho wouldn't the square rails running along both sides of the beam make it a standard track like the conventional roller-coaster?
  4. Welcome to KIC! For a first time coaster rider I would go with Adventure Express, for a first time visitor at the park, Flight of Fear or Firehawk, these coasters have the longest lines. It's a good idea to knock those out first, when visiting. The best coaster in the park in my opinion is The Beast. i highly suggest you ride twice once in the morning and once at night. Have fun!
  5. So is it safe to say Mack Coasters are on the horizon for Cedar Fair chain?
  6. The 2019 coaster renderings where already in place prior to Banshee being built. It will be a Mack giga coaster, that will utilize a cable lift which will easily clear Banshee. It will have the same trains that are currently used for Blue Fire at Europa, the track color will be blue with a combination of white and silver supports. <a href="http://s362.photobucket.com/user/x241/media/2019ki.png.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/oo63/x241/2019ki.png" border="0" alt=" photo 2019ki.png"/></a>
  7. Coasters I have ridden the most for each park: Kings Island: The Beast Cedar Point: Millennium Force Kings Dominion: Dominator Holiday World: The Voyage Coney Island: Python ( who would've thought!? ) Overall coaster: The Beast
  8. Now that I think about it why did Rougarou not receive these new restraints?
  9. A B&M flyer would have made such a better addition at CP than a dive coaster. Whenever I get the need to dive at the point I take the 120mph+ route.
  10. Cedar Fair should just relocate Shockwave from Kings Dominion to Michigan's Adventure and call it a day.
  11. it's been awhile since Six Flags had a new B&M instillation, last one being in 2012. There's been a lot of B&M instillation's on Cedar Fair's behalf since 2008.
  12. I would love to see a Mack coaster addition at Kings Island. Wether it be a giga coaster or a wild mouse coaster.
  13. As does the meal plan restaurants? People have to renew their plans, and also I'd be a betting man to say those concessions are only compensated when the meal plan is used at their restaurant.
  14. Amazing to see the Cincy Zoo expanding just seemed like yesterday they finished the Africa Exhibits
  15. I wish The Beast had new lapbars, the ones currently cut deeply into my leg space and crunch my legs together and cause a lot of discomfort between my legs. This is the same experience with The Racers.
  16. One day about 4 years ago, my Friend and I brought a couple girls to KI and they wanted to ride Drop Tower. A ride I've never ridden before, and was quite terrifying to me at the time. I didn't want to look like a chicken so I ended up ridding it. I hated it, and looking at it today still gives me butterflies. We rode it 3 more times that season with these girls. Even then Im still not fond of it. So much that we don't say the word Drop Tower at the park anymore, it is now designated: "The Rainbow Shaft"
  17. Another instance for me was when my best friend ( at the time before I moved away ) bribed me to ride The Beast. He offered me a $10 dollar gift card to Blockbuster. ( this was years back When I was a kid and Blockbuster was relevant. ) he also stated there were brakes that slows you down on the drop of the first hill. So I agreed, climbed the hill, went down the first drop and hit the first break run. I was grinning ear to ear, all the way to the station it was so awesome. Now he didn't lie completely about brakes being on the first drop but it didn't dramatically reduce speed as he put it. But wow, that was a decade ago and The Beast to this day is the Best ride at KI in my opinion. I laugh about it now, $10 blockbuster card, Pfft now n days I would have told him to pound salt. But I'm so happy I did it.
  18. The track and support renderings look very similar to that of Intimidator 305.
  19. I Will be downgrading my pass to Gold for 2016. ( it really just depends on my schedule if I have time for platinum. ) Also I will be opting out of my season dining plan next year. I'm also heavily considering a season long drink cup.
  20. Skyhawk would make a great addition to x base, as would also a restroom.
  21. I understand, I think about the 2019 and beyond KI coaster installations. i went to B&M's website and took a good hard gaze. X'd out hyper, flying, invert and standing coaster. I then realized there isn't many models left to install. These upcoming installations will and are becoming easier to predict..
  22. The park would then lose out on paper cup cost and locker fees. It would be a great idea for us, but bad business for them. Remember "People gotta drink" as a particular executive would say..
