There is not only a noise, but a loud snapping sound. The only fault I have with the ride is the cycle length. Add 20 sec, the snaps will be insane.

The KI set has some wicked snaps with massive ejector air. The trick is sitting on the right side of the tub with your left hand on the back right corner. Take your right hand, and push the fin in as much as possible when starting. When you turn the fin out, try to keep the tub as tangential to the concrete circle. When the tub is about to reach maximum height, lean into the fin, making it point downward. Your body should act as a dynamic part of the tub. That should help snap!

I'm just wondering how an adult fit in the kids seatbelt for the ride? -
Tonight I got some snaps that made the signature snapping noise similar to the old flyers. Has anyone encountered this during your onride experience?

Did the WCPO news helicopter break any laws by flying that close over the park to report on the Diamondback evacuation?

For those that are staying in hotels a few miles away, what time does the parking gates open on the second day?

Does anyone have pictures of the old playground in Splat City? I'm referring to the playground that was essentially 3 stories high.

I'm wondering what caused that to occur. Also, say I'd went to Kings Dominion with the gold pass working as a platinum, would the other parks still accept it?
-
That is somewhat comforting.

Last season (2014), I had a gold pass at KI. When time came round to renew passes, I pressed the "renew" option for the platinum pass. It allowed me to go through the payment process, and the paper ticket at the end stated that my card was now active as a platinum pass. However, since this card is physically a "gold pass", am I able to, while at KI, go to the season pass processing center, and have it exchanged for the platinum that I paid for?

Never mind, seems to be an electrical panel malfunction? Someone must have had their wires crossed.
-
Also, can we change the title, as no fire was actually confirmed.
-
Let me clarify: The part that caused the last issue was replaced. It seems how the media is reporting, that it is a similar problem to the previous occurrence. I am not trying to be the rumor spreader, but it leads me to that conclusion. I just put one and one together, and got two.
-
So, when will WCPO and all the news media join in for the 2015 New Ride Piggy Bank? It's just stupid that it was probably KI's replacement part for the ride was faulty.

It would be so appropriate to play "Bat outta Hell" in the quene line. Love the idea!

It was only a rumor I heard recently.

Move One Ride from Anywhere in the Country to KI

Yes it could. The Shooting Star had a powerful -2g airtime hill following a 3.5g pullout! That is more intense then what The Beast could ever wish to be! -
A Broken WindSeeker Ride? Don't bring Stalin into this PLEASE!!!!
-
I've heard everything now! I heard a rumor that KI and KBF will switch WindSeekers due to KI's being more functional. I think this is a ton of bologna, but is this even possible or legitimate?

Gold is malleable and creates friction which is used on the chaindogs to prevent:

Here is what I think it will look like: http://youtu.be/UTQLDDhk7z4 In other worlds, will The Beast be RMC'ed?
