Banshee Construction Progress

Featured Replies

Everyone says The Beast is the best night ride (i wouldnt know, never rode it at night) may not even try it, since Banshee looks to be even better.

    We did not mention all the statistics during the announcement because statistics are not what make a roller coaster great; it's the ride experience it delivers that makes it great.

  • It's good to see me, isn't it? No need to respond! That was rhetorical. Under 30 days until Banshee makes its public debut! We can't wait for you to come out and experience this ride.

    We have guests that are more excited about our live shows than our roller coasters, that visit the park specifically for the shows. For these guests, the Cirque Imagine announcement was as exciting as

The Earth is the proper name of a planet, and thus should always be capitalized.

That chicken looks like canes. Texas Toast, dipping sauce, chicken fingers...

OMG!! All the photos I've seen are awesome!! Glad you guys got to go to media day. Hopefully I'll see most of you tomorrow!

Don and Greg have said Banshee is supposed to become the best night ride.

All your pics and videos look awesome. Great weather and great times are being had today at KI. Very jealous, cannot wait till tomorrow.

Awesome once again, Kat! Thanks for the pic of The Bat cars... looks like pretty much just a change in color scheme (Vs. the molded bat-faced design of the 1981-era Bat), still I love the coaster's "new" identity!

great pictures.

Didn't go; wasn't invited- but they have taken it up a notch in theming. I LOVE it!

Well done! Not-so-new CF CEO seems to have a better handle on lasting impressions than Kinzel's fixation on tall rides and nothing else. I'm thinking this will be one of those rides that being in the line is part of the experience- fog, train's interaction alongside the line, etc... even the loading area.

Can't wait to see in person!

^^Wow....the loops are so evenly timed...makes me dizzy! Sign me up for a front row ride!

Just had one... You'll love it!

Media seems to have mostly cleared out so we are going to ask for row 1.

Edit... just took this video :)

We interrupt this thread to bring you breaking news from Banshee Media Day.

There is NO freestanding wall at the exit.

We now return you to your regular Banshee and Media Day discussion.

Yes! That's exactly what I thought. My sister refers to the sauce as Cane's dipping sauce so... I don't know what generic name to give it.

It tastes like it has horse radish, ketchup, pepper... mayonnaise? I'm not sure, but it sure does taste good!

Look! Trees!

when i tried to look at the video it said it is set to private

OK i will look into that and fix it.

So, does Eve have that trademark roar? From the videos it sure sounds like it, but I bet it's a whole lot better in person!

We did 5 rides I am home now. Row 4 once. Row 8 twice, and row 1 twice.

One of my favorite things about this ride is every time it hits the low points you hear a real low bass tone almost like when watching action movie trailers at the theater.

Can't go to media day, so I made a Banshee egg. Maybe it'll hatch! heqy6esy.jpg

That is seriously awesome. Man, I cannot wait to hear it in person!

^ I am going to go fix that now. Was busy taking more photos.

After only sleeping for a half hour last night we got to the park around 4 and waited. I was fortunate enough to notice Coaster Crew's window only had one person in line so we immediately hopped in that line and got our freebies. We were given our credentials, a t-shirt, on-ride photo voucher, and a glass block with Banshee etched in it. There was probably about 10 people in front of us in line and we got on the second train that left the station, I was told the first had all media. We rode front row for ride #2 at 6:30 and I think my face was literally frozen. But as others have said, the back is where its at. IMO the POV's do this ride no justice. It is absolutely amazing.

Don, Greg, and the gang did an excellent job of putting this day together for all of us and I don't think they could have done a better job. Thanks Kings Island.
