Thrill_Biscuit Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Do that, and ride on media day with the shirt on. I'll probably just use my ZIP code ...EDIT: "And spend the next 37 days at LifeTime trying to get somewhere near this cut!" 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kat Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I too would love to know if we will get shirts at media day, before I purchase one from the KI Marketplace online 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentSoB Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I would think if they were going to do the tees they would do it opening day. That's what they did with Firehawk and DB. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ride On_17 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 To be honest, I hope no one reveals the lighting package of Banshee. I want it revealed in its full glory at the end of opening day. I'll wait to post my media day/Scream For a Kid Again trip report until after opening day then. I can't speak for others though. Or you can still post it before Opening Day and people can just choose not to look at it if they don't want to get an early peek at what it's like... Just because something is posted, it doesn't mean you all have to look at it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoasterMyths79 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 ^^^Not just yet, they still have one more spot and a few supports. In matter of fact, they are painting the last part of the track orange. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedevariouseffect Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I'm sure some rides have cycled a few times we just don't see it. You'll see the park wake up for sure at the end of April/Beginning of May..we train for practically a week or more running the ride as an O/C shift to get ready for first riders. Wish that sort of thing happened down here. I got two weeks of running rides and working with the crew, some rides at KI, just a day.. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingless92 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 The first dive loop is going to be a great spot for pictures! Can't wait to see people screaming like little girls, lol. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnofthedead Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Testing will probably be hindered yet again today by windy conditions. However, i am really eager to see what the finished station looks like! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Wouldnt a windy day be a great day for testing? That and rain? Perfect example on why I want to wait a bit before I ride any new ride. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedevariouseffect Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I'm hoping so..someone with a loose article stowed being divebombed straight at the midway or launched at the top of the loop, could be an issue 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoe124 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I got to drive (I didn't drive, of course) past KI today and saw Banshee testing! Truly stupendous. Probably sent from my iDevice without Cydia. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveWorldEmperor Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 The Action Zone is going to be amazing this year! It's going to look completely different! I'm not sure if I'm more excited for Banshee itself or the new atmosphere of the area! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firehawk fan Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 When it comes to testing the ride. Do they bring in the KI crew that will be running the ride? How does that all work....esp the training on a new coaster! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adventuro Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Rides supervisors work several weeks before, cycling the rides. Then other employees come on specific days closer to the opening of the park. People are trained on the ride they will be working. Rides like Banshee will require training during the whole training period. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
