Zayzayd13 Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 If it is an invert I hope that it dosen't make me dizzy. Most inverts do. I agree. Some inverts give me vertigo like Raptor. But when it comes to big name Amusement Parks, Kings Island is the only park that doesnt have a full circuit invert. Look at Carowinds, Dorney, KD, Cedar Point, CW, Knotts, and even Worlds of Fun; they all have a full circuit invert. Kings Island being one of the top three parks in the chain and not having a B&M Invert is pretty silly to me. 1
Coaster.Rider.Kings Island Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 I agree but why would they put something in that might cause discomfort to the guest. I like inverts, but I don't like waiting another hour recovering from a ride before I can ride another one.
calakapepe Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 I've never had dizziness with inverts.. I don't understand all the complaining. And not seeing anything, With Invertigo, I can't see anything either, but that doesn't mean it's not a fun ride. (Passed the people you're facing) On a selfish standpoint, if people really don't like inverts that much, and we do get one.. then hey, more riding for me But I know a lot of people will flock to it regardless But for your sake, if it bothers you, I see why you wouldn't vouch for one haha 1

Coaster.Rider.Kings Island Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 I would ride it and I'm not complaining. I'm just saying many people have vertigo from riding inverts and Kings Island might have considered it when choosing what type of ride to put in. 1

Zayzayd13 Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 When you think about it. Diamondback was/is a huge hit and is the #1 or #2 coaster in the park (The Beast I might add). Maybe Kings Island doesnt want to outshine DB with height and speed, but to have another coaster in the park that can put KI on the map of a must visit destination. Also 2014 would mean the last new coaster we got came 5 years ago, and DB will be 6 years old (I cant believe how time goes by). 5 years without a new coaster gives a lot of time to think about what type of ride you want, where you want it, the theme (if there is one) and many other options. So technically, this coaster could be 5 years in the making. 3
Coaster.Rider.Kings Island Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Canada's Wonderland outshined Behemoth by speed at height with Leviathan.
Zayzayd13 Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 But i said NOT trying to outshine in height in speed, rather have another coaster that delivers a different presence. Both Leviathan and Behemoth are giants. Maybe KI wants something giant but not as tall as DB and delivers a different feel
secondson Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 What is this supposed to be? A food truck? Why? http://twitpic.com/cvv1th Well, with the pictures of food on the side and the walk-up window, my guess is it's an armored Brinks truck. Think, my friend....think. YES, it's a food truck. Sorry, I couldn't resist. It was just begging for a sarcastic, smart-alec response. 10
Big Sexy Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 How can you be a enthusiast and complain of the g's on rides like inverts? 2
Big Sexy Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 I can't ride the intamin giga with the new open air trains. What is the deal with b&m's. In the back on Diamondback it is rough but I can care less if a ride is rough. Mf is 13 years old and still smooth as glass. Even though there are reliabilty issues intamin is the caddilac of coasters.
Coaster.Rider.Kings Island Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Diamondback is not rough. It is still smooth as silk to me. 6
THE_BEASTmaster Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 So, Big Sexy, you care a little bit if the ride was rough then.THE_BEASTmaster, who just had to again. 9
TheCrypt Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 How can Intamin be the equivalent to a Cadillac with prevalent, reoccurring problems? 2

Big Sexy Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 How can I be the only one that notices the jack hammering in the back of the train. If you listen to the ride you can hear it as well.
UnrealNightmare Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 And SLC's are like relatives who come to visit and never leave. 3
Ki Man Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 It shuffles a bit, yeah. Rough is an outlandish statement. But it's more 'rough' than Goliath (SFOG) and Raging Bull, but honestly I like them all about the same. They all bring something different to the table - Goliath has doesn't have a MCBR so it doesn't give you a chance to breathe, great floater air and a strong helix. Raging Bull has a couple strong drops and a unique compact layout and Diamondback has strong air and a terrain to work with.
Big Sexy Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 That is why I am hoping for a intamin giga. All that jackhammering shruggs off speed. Speed is the less resistance.
Captain Picard Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 I think you can forget the about the Intamin Giga. Resistance is futile!
TheCrypt Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 That is why I am hoping for a intamin giga. All that jackhammering shruggs off speed. Speed is the less resistance.Why do you think Millennium Force goes so slow at the end? The turns and hills in the course shave off speed.

That's my point, I don't want jackhammering to shrugg off more speed.
