I just wanted to thank everyone who posted what the ride announcement was...even if you weren't first it's the thought that counts...and I like seeing the enthusiasm!

Right above that, in the description, it says that 48" is the minimum to ride. They didn't proofread before throwing the page up.

"Riders must be at least 48 inches tall to ride and will be secured with individual over-the-head lap bars with interlocking seat belts."

Ooops on their part...and thanks for catching that for me. I thought in a way that sounded outrages to be able to take your three year old up. lol. But anywho, I'll take note!

[chaddie]

WOW, I did not realize that so many KICer's were there. I would have liked to meet some of you.

Oh well, next time

When I first looked at the concept pictures on KI's home page, I thought Action Theater was missing! It was actually flat... which doesn't mean it's staying or leaving.

I think Action Zone was just not part of the concept video at all, I don't think there is a hidden meaning there, but that is just me!

If you look at the video on KI's WindSeeker listing, pause it at 1:06 and you can barely see Drop Zone and SOB in the background.

[Dbfan]

So if SOB is on the video, maybe next year it will make the map!

[The Interpreter]

Oh, I figure it will make the metaphysical map, at the very least.

That's for sure.

Terp, who likes bordering on but not saying too much

[KIBeast]

At first, I thought this ride looked boring. But, at 300 ft., it would be intimidating to say the least.
