Tr0y Posted Wednesday at 06:57 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:57 PM My favorite part of this giga is the 287ft lift hill. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0uyR3YfztEZbRD8b6mEeHT5GZq1Z8b99J6cAZkdR3Z4rypvL7MnTsc4H5yisAv8HNl&id=100064730913995 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3dgyrat Posted Wednesday at 08:54 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:54 PM The first drop is probably my favorite thing ever in terms of coasters. No other ride I've rode has gave me the feeling on being in air like it does. Practically feel like I'm skydiving lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysticTimberwolf Posted Wednesday at 11:01 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:01 PM Imagine how much more incredible it would feel if it were a REAL giga as advertised. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you would totally feel those 13 extra feet at 90mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbeast Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago I personally love Orion and enjoy it for what it is. The first drop and speed are amazing. I don't mind it may seem a bit shorter than Fury. I am happy that KI finally got a 300' drop speed machine. I love Fury too for the same reasons! I love Diamondback too for it's great airtime and fun ride. And my love for The Beast knows no bounds, but Voyage, for me is one of my favorites too. And thinking about it, just about any rollercoaster I have had the opportunity to ride through my life, I enjoy it for what it is and the park that it may be in. It's always a good day when I get to ride a good coaster. Each have their own great elements and that's why I travel to different parks to enjoy them. I just spent last Sunday at Strickers Grove riding Tornado (and the flyers). Not the biggest coaster ever, but so much fun to ride! I am and always will be a coaster geek, but as I get older and wiser I have fully realized that KI has been so fortunate to get the coaster installs it has. We are lucky to call KI a home park. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodVengeance Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago The first drop height of Orion (300ft) is the same height as Millennium Force's first drop (300ft), so yes. Orion is as much of a giga as Millennium Force is. You'd think we'd get over this after five years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whining and expressing a very slight annoyance are different things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
