PKIVortex Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Kings Island really is using pictures from the photo gallery on there website. Go check out the photos they are using on the Son of Beast fact page, under media center. Pretty cool. (Does KI have permission to use the pics from this site)?

TOPGUN1993 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Yes, Kings Island Loves PKIC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Nemo Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 They are probably doing this as a quick replacement for the pictures that were there before. They had pics of SOB with the loop. If you read it's stats they are all the same except any mention of the loop is now gone thus the pics with the loop are gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Really? It says: If the father scared you, wait until you ride the son! The Tallest, Fastest Coaster on the Planet will send you screaming down it's 214-foot hill at speeds over 78 mph. You've never experienced anything like this before. Not anywhere. Not ever. Funny, I could have sworn that thing WAS 218 feet tall.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delirium13 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Son of Beast is Sinking! Actually though the heighest point is 218 feet, but the hill you go down is only 214. So the hill that you go "screaming down" is in fact onyl 214 feet tall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Well, it's always had a 214 foot drop and a 218 foot hill....I hope they just used the wrong word (like they left out the term wooden when noting its records...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIVortex Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 It is 218 feet tall, with a 214 foot drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Yep. I hope they just used the wrong word.... Other coasters that have had incidents have been substantially reprofiled (see Rattler, Riverside Cyclone, Colossus, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIVortex Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 Probably so. But they do need to add the Worlds Tallest and Fastest WOODEN Coaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 And yes, PKIVortex, the park did secure permission from Ryan before using the pictures from our site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIVortex Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 Hehehehe, figured as much. Thanks though, was just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Yep, Ms. Kaiser called a very groggy Ryan at 8:15 in the morning to ask for some photos and got permission when I was off guard :-) Just kidding... I'm flatter that they're being used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
