KI FANATIC 37 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 I don't see how the lift can he 200 feet. Is that area that long? 1
locostitch Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 I don't think I will ride it. Why won't you ride it
Rustbucket Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 I don't think I will ride it. Yes....... Great news. One less person.... 11
The Forsaken Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 You wouldn't need 200' of land to go 200' in the air. Just a thought. -T. Forsaken
THE_BEASTmaster Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Based on the layout shown in the blueprints, I compared the length of 2014's lift hill to Son of Beast's lift hill (the footings are still shown in the blueprints.) Son of Beast's lift hill was just a tad bit longer than 2014's, but that doesn't mean 2014 won't be as tall as SOB. Based on recent B&M coasters, the lift can be between 40-45º where as SOB's lift hill was nowhere near that steep (I would guess 30º.) My best guess is that it will be the tallest invert at around 200-220'. Pure speculation though. The other thing is the did change Diamondbacks slogan! From fastest and tallest thing to hit Kings Island. To full of Venom and ready to strike! So i am guessing that It will be taller than diamonback I don't think there's enough room to have a lift hill taller than 230', I'm guessing it'll no higher than 218' (as someone said earlier, a homage to SoB).
calakapepe Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 I just posted what that sort of element is called, if it IS what it appears to be. Read previous posts
gingerkid Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Spoiler Alert THIS IS NOT MY PICTURE I AM ONLY RE-POSTING FROM WHAT WAS SUPPLIED ONLINE WHAT IS THIS? (Circled) Could this ride take the title for biggest loop? (could we be seeing a giant loop?)
PyroKinesis Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Why won't you ride it Because it isn't what he wants Kings Island to add. 1

locostitch Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 If you look at the blueprints the lift hill goes out towards where the rose bowl was
kirbias1 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I think it's safe to say this thing does look huge. Judging by the prints, the lift hill goes all the way out over to the old king cobra footings and turns and drops. It seems they are utilizing every foot of the lift area to gain as much height possible. It is possible that this ride will break every inverted record! I doubt it though.
BoddaH1994 Posted August 2, 2013 Author Posted August 2, 2013 As mentioned above - record breaking could mean anything. If it's an invert, none of them are really that tall... could be the tallest. Maybe the fastest.. most inverts? It's going to be an interesting week. 11
CoasterKrazy Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 SPOILERThe Professional Engineer's stamp shown in the video is legitimate. A search for Daniel Peak results in an active license.
06jds377 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 THIS IS NOT MY PICTURE I AM ONLY RE-POSTING FROM WHAT WAS SUPPLIED ONLINE WHAT IS THIS? (Circled) A diversion.
BoddaH1994 Posted August 2, 2013 Author Posted August 2, 2013 Haha... if we found out that Daniel Peak was unlicensed, would you have second thoughts about this new attraction? 2
Tr0y Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Any intanim fan should be pleased they didn't add a giga coaster, it was clear Kings Island was going to choose b&m for their next coaster (they were looking for reliability) did you really want a copycat leviathain called millenium forceless??? Now that Kings Island has gone b&m back to back its only a matter of time before the park adds its first intanim coaster. Hopefully by then intanim can get their reliability issues behind them. 2
Diamondback FOF Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 ^^Actually...maybe kinda a little bit haha I'd just be more curious about why his name was on there
CoasterGeek101 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I am thinking about streaming the announcement live from the park using UStream. Would those not attending be interested? 16
TTD-120-420 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I imagine there will be one less person working at the construction site tomorrow, if this was indeed a construction worker. 4
jdawg1998 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I am thinking about streaming the announcement live from the park using UStream. Would those not attending be interested? The things you can do with a smartphone. And yes.
gingerkid Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I am thinking about streaming the announcement live from the park using UStream. Would those not attending be interested? Yes Please, I will have my Wisdom teeth removed so I wont be able to go! 1
Hoeter Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 My concern is with the signal throughout the park. If it's busy it may be difficult to get in a good signal. 2
ki lover Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I doubt Kings Island even cares we know at this point. We're just some fansite. I know word of mouth is a very powerful thing, but at least 98.5% of visitors to Kings Island at least once a year are clueless. Heck I'd even say 30% of which still think SOB is still standing
Dms94 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 ^They look legit to me Well this was unexpected. Um..... These aren't real... he didn't even spell check Vicinity Edit: im a little late haha
jackparanoia Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 My concern is with the signal throughout the park. If it's busy it may be difficult to get in a good signal. Maybe someone is going who has a signal booster? I can't be there sadly, plus I don't have one.
DiamondBackGirl Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 well after reading everything here and watching the video some more, maybe they are real. I do not know for sure just like no one here knows for sure. but I am willing to accept that possibility. I'll at least be slightly suspicious until the annoucement and we know for sure. but heck if they are real I cannot wait to ride this ride! 2
CoasterGeek101 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I get 4g LTE. I am not worried about getting a signal. 3
locostitch Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 ^They look legit to me Well this was unexpected. Um..... These aren't real... he didn't even spell check Vicinity Please read back the last 10 pages. Then you will understand these came from the public records library
