Accident on Alton Towers Smiler
KIBeast replied to Bennett's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Sorry, should have clarified, I meant standard sit-down coaster cars. Not floorless, inverted, or wing coasters -
Accident on Alton Towers Smiler
KIBeast replied to Bennett's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I can't believe that people are that close to the front of the train. You look at Intamin and B&M, at least the sit down models, have something in the very front of the cars. -
Well homestar, if customer service sucks as bad as what I've heard in this thread, then I don't care what rides/attractions they have. I'll spend my money elsewhere
-
The easier question, Interpreter, may be what's not wrong with KK. It would be a much shorter list
-
My vote would be for Jaws...

Exactly CandyManCan. There's really nothing to resurrect. Maybe those protesters need to look at this site and see the images you posted. Seems like they think there is actually something there worth saving. Often times, our memories tend to be better than the reality of the situation.

I think that was the idea behind seeing only the claws to begin with GYK; to not see. You can't see very much of it to this day, which may be why we have only ever seen the claws as it's a representation of The Beast itself.

Last time I was at Cedar Point and rode Cedar Creek Mine Ride, which has no leg room either, I was advised to cross my ankles and ride that way. It made for a much more comfortable ride. Not sure if that will work on Woodstock Express, but worth mentioning

Wonder if CF has been looking for potential buyers of the water park? (considering it's the only one they operate)

I love Delirium. I thought it was the same as maXair, except the aforementioned longer ride cycle on the one at Cedar Point. I am 5'11", 197 lbs and have no discomfort in riding Delirium. I've been on Delirium a few times and the ride experience was the same in different seats. The other plus for maXair is the line for it is far shorter than Delirium, or at least it was last time I went to Cedar Point.

I'm going to try the bribery route. Maybe offer to go to buy a souvenir if he will ride a ride. No matter what he decides, I'm sure we'll have a great day, and that's what I want to share with him.

Yes, Firehawk is the former X-Flight from GL. I rode it at Geauga Lake. I wanna say a black/bright green paint scheme

Busch Gardens Tampa: New ride watch
KIBeast replied to Steph88's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I think it looks to be a really cool addition for them. I'm not a huge fan of any coaster manufacturer. If it's fun, I'm in. -
Four Children Injured on Carnival Ride
KIBeast replied to milesharrison's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I don't do carnivals or any of those type places. I agree that taking apart and assembling these rides doesn't make me feel comfortable in the least, inspection or no. -
Four Children Injured on Carnival Ride

Why does Joe Dirt come to mind? -
I agree with you on Drop Tower. Good advice, folks. That was pretty cool of that supervisor to do that for that girl dtk.

I almost did this on my most recent visit to Camden Park. I wanted to get one lap on Big Dipper and my 6 year old son said he didn't want to ride. I started to drag him, but didn't because I wanted to do what he wanted to. Now, I'm wondering if I shouldn't have because he's been on it several times and likes it. He just isn't into night rides yet. We went on it after dark and I think the tunnel scared him. He hates the dark.

Out of those choices, I picked the Rotor. I always thought it was cool when the floor dropped out. I rode Son of Beast with and without the loop. The loop added so much more to the ride. It was really strange when the cars went through that section without the loop. I was like...booorriiinnng. I was going to mention Der Spinnin' Keggers as it was something the entire family can enjoy. Rode The Bat (original) and remember it as a pretty wild ride. Too bad the design was poor.

Reminds me of "No soup for you!" This park only remotely interests me and not enough to go yet. It will probably be closed by the time I think it's time for a visit.
-
I rode it when it was the previous Avatar ride, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I wanna get my son on it this year, if he will.

Nice pic from Ronny!

I like the current state of Camden, at least as far as the ownership goes. Hopefully, they will get some much needed TLC that it needs. I'd like to see them raze the bathrooms and get new ones. Those always seem to smell horrible. And some general painting could really help with the Big Dipper. And do something about the horrible smell that is in their water for the log flume and swan boats. Although, methinks that having fish in your swan boat water does not help that smell at all. I would love to take a lap on the log flume, but I don't want to deal with the smell afterwards. And something, anything, needs to go where the spider was. A fence blocking the view of what once was is not attractive at all. Flats seem to be their forte', so put something else in its' place. I give them great credit for adding the Rattler. Pretty thrilling ride and nice lighting package.

Cedar Point 2016 Talk
KIBeast replied to Bansheeback's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I saw the Today show. Savannah Guthrie rode Dragster and Rougarou while Jenna Bush Hager watched. She is pregnant, so that's why she didn't ride. -
I would like to see Boo Blasters converted to a fun boat ride like Enchanted Voyage, but themed to Peanuts, come to think of it.
