KI will always be a crown jewel of CF. It may seem at times that they don't get the biggest toys like Fury 325 or Imtimader 305 but nobody else has The Beast. As a matter of fact speaking park attendance I think it's up this year . Especially during the week days. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk -

Not say that they are number 2. But I have heard that CF wanted to make Carrowinds the CP of the south. I could be way off but with the addition of Fury 325 last year it will be interesting to see how things develop over the next few years. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk -

I always thought CF plans were to make Carrowinds the number 2 park so by CF supposedly thinking It would be CP 1 Carrowinds 2. But I'm bias so I well always put KI 1 Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk -
Hope I got the right video here. Anyone remember going here as a kid. Was a great place. Before ownership changed hands and was let to down. The Screaching Eagle was my first big coaster and the scariest one I have ever been on.You had so much air time on this ride you literally floated on air the whole ride. One of the few coasters I have rode that you really needed seat belts. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk https://youtu.be/T8jIocAGX_o Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Guess they will be using that pump to drain out the support holes when the rain stops. [emoji2] Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk -

SonODiamondback replied to jcgoble3's topic in Kings Island
Not going to believe anything till I see pictures. It is possible for them to have a truck there. But wouldn't they wait to send anybody till they are actually constructing the thing. Not just clearing land and setting the supports. Any way after reading through their website a GCI seems more likely from the plans that have been posted and some of their trademark track designs.

My guess is who ever is refitting Hurler at KD. Is the one building the new one here. If it's GCI why keep it a secret as to who is doing the refitting of Hurler unless it's something big. KD hasn't had a new coaster since 305 and I don't think a GCI rehabbing of Hurler would created the kind of buzz that they seem to be hiding. But then again it could be just part of a deal CF has with GCI to rehab some of there coasters and throw in a new one at KI. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk -

The one thing I don't like about Diamondback
SonODiamondback replied to raptor's topic in Kings Island
The fact it's not a Giga is the only thing I can think of and it's to short. Needs to be 1000 ft longer. But know me if it was 1000 feet longer I'd want it a 1000 more ft longer and so on... Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk -

It comes down to cost.im starting to lean more on the CGI side then RMC after seeing some of the recent post. So hopefully this is GCI biggest project to date or we just might be in line for a Giga in the next few years. Either way it's a win win for KI Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk -
It would be a lot easier to just open the park till Midnight every Friday and Saturday night all season long istead of a few weekends in the summer. Night rides are what The Beast are all about and the park should make it a point to get as many night rides in as possible during those times. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

And if the did put a Giga in Dinosaurs Alive area I pay homage in Coney Island and call it the Shooting Star theme it like the Old Coney legend. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

For me I could see a Giga going where Dinosaurs Alive is. I think a wing coaster or a dive coaster would be a good Vortex replacement.Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Hate to see any ride removed. Not sure about the cost of up keep. But everytime I been to KI the last two years it seems to have a decent line. If any ride gets removed I think it might be Congo falls it just seems like it's out of the when peple are looking for things to ride. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Hmm falling timbers ? A Native American Theme ? If the name is Tecumseh I can see protesters lining up already. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk -
Yeah I know Diamondback placement is a bit of a mess. But it is pretty cool standing underneath it watching the trains go down the first hill. In a strange way it's placement works for me. And even better now with the new WWC entrance. But hey that's just me [emoji2] Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

The thing I didn't like about the Paramount days was the way they destroyers the theme in around the park . The rides they put in are great but it seems they threw them in without and real planning. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
