DropZone99 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 My uncle took me and Mitch to KI this weekend for Ride Warriors. He didn't take us til' Noon Saturday so We missed All Saturday Morning ERT, and Beast tour. The park was pretty crowded Saturday but I didn't care. We didn't get a whole lot of rides in on Saturday (Minus Dback ERT.) Q&A Was fun, but Beast's Birthday Party wasn't that great so I left it early. At about 9:20pm. I got in Line for Beast. But it closed from 9:50-10:05 because of the fireworks so I didn't get off til' 10:10. I than went to Diamondback ERT. The queue wasn't that full we waited 7 Minutes for Very front. After that ride the line kept getting smaller so we Just kept getting on and alot of times staying on for up to 8 Rides without leaving the station! It was great, at about my 28th. Ride I started to not feel so good. A skunk sprayed in the woods, the on ride photo hurts my eyes, and all those G's were starting to get to me. So I got off on my 31st. Ride (ERT had just ended.) I went back to the hotel and fell asleep. I set my alarm for 6am. but my ride turned it off and woke me up 9 hours later, so I missed all the ERT on Sunday! Luckily the park was dead and I got a walkon on Delirium, Drop Zone, Invertigo, and SOB (Stayed on twice without leaving the train.) But I missed Racer tour by a few minutes. SOB Tour was amazing, loved it! We left around 7:40pm. I took over 200 Photos, but I'm only posting the more unique ones. We started our day at Son of Beast and waited around 100 Minutes, took this photo of TG's track. Happy people on Delirium. Had some Skyline Chili and took this from Skyline Patio. Than we went to Diamondback. I think they just built this fence around the pumps a week or so ago. I took this photo from Diamondback's queue stairs going into the station. I hadn't ridden Beastie since April 2008 so I decided to ride it again. Than went to Drop Zone and got a second ride on it. B&M Arrow Tree Crypt is now a B&M Mega Coaster Not too good of a photo cause it was night and I didn't have a tripod. Random stuff in Crypt.

DropZone99 Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 Diamondback splashing at night. Diamondback splashing at day. Backlot splashing at day. Entering last helix. Double Corkscrew. I hate when people walk infront of the camera when they know I'm taking a photo! Paul took a similar photo (his is better though) so I copied him. SOB Fail. Flight Deck Bridge. Slingshot was only $5 so why not...? Which one is better? If you look at my Opening day PTR, I took photos of these same geese when they were just a few days old, now look how big they are! Skloosh! Trying out my zoom, and these people are at the top. Old FoF Trains. TG. Amazing structure. The trains look sooo tiny! Exiting the MCBR. Getting close to the final brake run. ♥ Old loop footings. Airtime! Blue train. Look at those amazing curves! Would be better if it was brighter. Yes everyone, I DO love Son of Beast! Adventure Express. Most likely Vortex wheels. Congo Car. Invertigo. Another Invertigo Photo. Took over the fence and saw a Test Seat. Took from WWC's exit. My favorite-est photo. Out of the MCBR. WWC. Thanks for reading!

The Interpreter Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Tree! Angrybeaver, you take great photos, and yet I find myself most amused at the picture of "Tree" from a Cedar Fair park! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiruler102 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 he just wants you to think he took that at the park, but he really took it at his house before he lefted!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I hope you sent this into the contest. Great Pic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DropZone99 Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 Thanks everyone! That tree is in Flight Deck's queue line next to the Hershey Machine. ^ I think I will be sending that one in, I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 The Hershey machine that, like the other "Hershey" machines in the park, has M & M products in it? Terpy, who was confusigated by that.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnrealNightmare Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 The funny thing is we were with him when he took that picture of the tree. And we questioned it. I also remember some more of the really random pictures he took as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terpy, who was confusigated by that.... YES! The machines sometimes say Hershey and Have Snickers, Milky Way, M&M's, ect... And a few (I know of one in Drop Tower's queue) Is Mars Brand but I think there is Hershey Products in it. The funny thing is we were with him when he took that picture of the tree. And we questioned it. I also remember some more of the really random pictures he took as well. Ha! Yeah Remember me taking photos of the most random things? I'm like that, Just take random photos and see if I like them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 And the Nestle ice cream machines often have pictures of M & M drumstick type cones on the side....I really hope the park isn't soon visited by reps from either Hershey, M & M or Nestle. I doubt they'd be amused... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corn4ahead Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Absolutely OUTSTANDING photographs!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnrealNightmare Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Yes and the M&M's machine that is in question right now. He also grabbed a quick picture of that. I also remember a certain "Large Family" that he took pictures of and couldn't stop laughing at. LMAO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Wow I love your photos. What kind of camera do you have. I like the zoom on it. Ihave been looking for a new camera but I want something small wth lots of zoom so I dont have to be bothered about carrying it in the park.

kittenpooh Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 wow.... thats all I can say!! amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldiesmann Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Great photos! I agree with the others that you should send that photo into the contest. When was Slingshot $5? Everytime I saw it this past weekend it was "only" $15 or $20, which is why I haven't ridden it yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ki Man Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Hmm...I need to walk back by WWC. Nice shots, but don't try to zoom in so much. Quality of quantity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and the M&M's machine that is in question right now. He also grabbed a quick picture of that. I also remember a certain "Large Family" that he took pictures of and couldn't stop laughing at. LMAO I have those photos in my camera still! That family was just so funny I couldn't help but to take photos of them! Wow I love your photos. What kind of camera do you have. I like the zoom on it. Ihave been looking for a new camera but I want something small wth lots of zoom so I dont have to be bothered about carrying it in the park. Canon SX110. It has pretty good zoom(10optical, 30x), especially compared to my old camera (3 optical.) wow.... thats all I can say!! amazing! Ha, thank you! Great photos! I agree with the others that you should send that photo into the contest. When was Slingshot $5? Everytime I saw it this past weekend it was "only" $15 or $20, which is why I haven't ridden it yet... Thanks, I think I will enter that photo into the contest! And It was at 10:59am. when I bought it but I didn't ride til' about 2pm. Hmm...I need to walk back by WWC. Nice shots, but don't try to zoom in so much. Quality of quantity. Yeah, I love the view of Diamondback you get from back there, Especially when the train comes by! Thanks, and I'm still not used to having such a good camera that I'm obsessed with zooming in on everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTools Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 All Amazing photos, but where was this taken at? I only thoght you could see AE from the que for the blue racer. Also, does the BLSC have the water effects back?, every time i go they dont use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DropZone99 Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 ^ SOB walkback. It's a bad photo, but it's a view you can only see during a Backstage Tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everytime I saw it this past weekend it was "only" $15 or $20, which is why I haven't ridden it yet... It usualy $5 in the morning. Also you can buy a $5 ticket in the morning and its good all day. The wait time is horrible on that ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trevor75 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 it may not be a great photo, but it is an interesting one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentSoB Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 You take some really good quality photos... Some of your shots of DB are pretty unique. With all of the trip reports, it is surprising to see all of the unique angles I have seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
