He has to be careful with what he says. He's the CEO. Again, there could be more winged coasters on the docket for other properties but for now no means no. Yeah, I agree, that was my point.

Gatekeeper restraints...that's not me by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ride On_17 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 For those of you with issues with wingrider restraints: Before the train is dispatched, hold onto the OTSRs like you're holding onto the chains of a swing. Keep them pushed slightly away from your chest and hold on to them for the entire ride. If I do this I have no discomfort at all, but if I let go or don't hold onto the vest like that, my collarbone really starts to hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, us B&M fan boys blame Intamin for crappy reliability. (and overturned boats.) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta say I'm LMAO right now at the whole thing, but especially about the "bobbing your head for depth perception" part. I actually tried it, only to further watch the video and find out it doesn't work for humans. To think I considered myself reasonably intelligent! HA! I'm so gullible. On 7/28/2013 at 11:30 PM, The Interpreter said: Uh...that video was JUST posted...again. Hi, Terp! I know - I know, I know, I know. I saw that a little too late. I'm sorry. Y'all are posting so fast that I'm having trouble keeping up. Plus, I'm a bit slow reading this evening. I keep getting distracted. But hey...I pointed out the time stamp for emphasis. On 7/28/2013 at 11:13 PM, YoungStud said: An invert for KI makes the park unique? I think, as time goes on, the only thing that really makes a park unique these days is either theming - which KI can't do on the scale of Disney - or overall park experience and ambiance. Simply having a giga coaster or Intamin blitz isn't going to do it. On 7/28/2013 at 11:18 PM, jcgoble3 said: There's a cobra roll (which includes two inversions) at the beginning and the corkscrew at the end. I'm not sure what the third inversion is. I know someone already posted a video, but I thought maybe it would be nice to post a link to a Google image search of The Joker's Jinx.
