We have been in DB's line for about 20 mins and have not even got half way through the upper switchbacks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Dont come unless you absolutely want to. Wait times are really long. Currently in a two hour line for Mystic Timbers. Diamondback, Beast, And Mystic all have 90+ waits. Vortex and Bat have 60 min waits.

I LOVED Mystic Timbers, GCI and the team did a great job. one if not the best ride in the park for me! And on that day it was running smoother than Banshee and Diamondback

Dont worry I had a “Bumpy road” with some of my first posts [emoji12]

The only shirt I found in a Goodwill was a Thunderbird shirt. I still wonder why people donate these kind of things. I guess it got to small or big for them to wear? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If the OP means as the ride is exiting the station its the sensors that “connect” to the train that are in the station. I remember Holiday World saying that while Thunderbird was taking some of its first steps. Now if the OP means at the bottom of the drop I think its the ARB’s just settling like goettablitz said. But thats just my thinking [emoji6]

If your going during the fair keep in mind that both fair weekends KK is open they are bought out on Sunday.

It depends, some days its packed and some days crowds are light. I say expect a moderate crowd (at least thats my experience). Also another thing to keep in mind is that JCPS has started school is very close to starting. I don’t have a definite answer [emoji6] I try to make it out every week or two but I usually don’t go on weekends Edit: Sorry Homestar didn’t see your comment but your dead on.

Its very moody rides like a GCI on some days and beats you on others. There are also a lot of new markers around the T3 area

There has been markers spotted around the pump house for the new wave pool all the way to T3. If I go today I will try to get more photos Link: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You can also see a Holiday World billboard on Storm Chasers lifthill for Thunderbird. Thought that was funny when I saw it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Dang, Universal is the only park that has removed/renovated B&M’s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Im thinking that 28ft is going to be added to the height of the structure. My first thought was going to be airtime moments but I said to myself that with how the layout of the ride is that would be extreme.

If I could go back and delete that post I wouldn’t, it gets me every time. [emoji4]

It has a really bad jackhammer once you get past the MCBR. it is violent (what I really love about Voyage) but has gotten so much rougher than it was running in 2014/2015. I was that person who was always thinking Voyage was smooth and was always going what when people called it rough. Now i feel like I have a insight on that and can understand [emoji4]

Ive always thought it was smooth for how much intensity it had. The ride I had during the middle of the day shocked me on how rough it can be.

I used to think the people who said they were rough were crazy to, however I was wrong. Voyage ran glass smooth today in the morning, with only slight vibrations and 1 jackhammer in the Spaghetti Bowl. However when the day went on and temps rose to 90+ I felt like Voyage tried to kill me! (I also had to put my hands down to hold on and brace!) However all the other woodies were running pretty good. Thunderbird was running great as always but for some odd reason had a very loud squeak. But that went away as the day went on.

There was a building that was being built by Twisted, the parks pretzel stand. Turns out it is a drink station!

So some things have been happening at the Kingdom First off a person got his pass revoked because he had his phone out on a ride LINK: http://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/local/2017/06/14/louisville-man/396323001/. I agree that actions should be taken over people having there phones out. However judging off of comments many of the GP dont agree and said he doesn't deserve that and that there should be no problem with taking your phone out and that they would no longer be spending money at the park. But the person who did it admits it was a safety issue so thats alright I guess? The second incident is where a group of bullies assaulted a teenage girl. She said that there as been a past with that group. The group of bullies got there passes taken away and the victims mothers got hers taken away to after sprinting at the gate to attack one of the kids who attacked her daughter. LINK: http://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/crime/2017/06/14/15-year-old-girl-assaulted-kentucky-kingdom-mother-kicked-out-retaliating-aginst-bullies/397471001/ I really don't get this at all. The park says plenty of times that loose articles are not allowed and they have bins on every ride. The ops will also take something to the bins if requested. So now the Kingdom is being blamed on this even tough there is signs everywhere saying loose articles are NOT allowed.

I know its a small thing but Saturday in the waterpark Ed Hart was with somebody inspecting a water slide and people were dropping tubs off the slide tower. A Lifeguard started going towards them and Ed waved her off and proceeded to grab the tubes and take them back to the place where there stored one by one. I thought that was really nice of him!

So if anybody really wants to ride T3 they might want to wait as the orange train is stuck part way up the lift and the lift motor has currently been taken off. So no more pain until this lift motor issue is fixed.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask but im going to make my first visit of the year to Kings Island this Thursday. Any tips or info or anything thats new that wasn't there last year? Thanks!

Is there any other way?
