Raging Bull says hello. One of the most underrated first drops in the industry.

You are 100% right on that ^^ I’ve only done it twice in the back, and yes it’s that good.

Canada's Wonderland just posted a new blog post on their website, showcasing updates on the two new-for-2023 attractions, Tundra Twister and Snoopy's Racing Railway! The train for Snoopy's Racing Railway looks very nice and the wood print design for Tundra Twister looks great too!

Thanks all. I figured Disney would be a pain due to all the phone checking and planning that needs to be done. And I didn't realize Universal would be that rough to do. So Sea World it is. Haven't been to a Sea World since 2010 in San Diego and having never been to the Orlando park, I can cross that one off my bucket list. And to Erik, nothing wrong with that preference. I prefer Orion and Diamondback to Steel Vengeance. Something about B&M hypers just makes me happy. Smooth as glass, comfortable restraints and tons of floater air. Looking forward to trying Mako! Again, thank you for your advice. I do appreciate it and now can look forward to Sea World. And Fun Spot... White Lightning looks pretty awesome!

The preshow for Bourne is SO long that I made a joke that "Julia Stiles should add this to her IMDB". then, lo and behold...

I like the concept of pre shows but the execution is almost always lacking, and most of the time the crowd talks over it anyways. Not that I expect rapt silence but you know what I mean. We'll be in the park a few days next week so I'm kind of glad it's running, I havent been since Hagrids or Velocicoaster have opened, so at least getting the 'full experience'. Does Universal do anything for Valentine's Day? I'd assume no since Mardi Gras stuff going on.

The mindbender would be so inferior to anything that is currently at Knoebels. That is 100% not the place that this ride should end up. One of the best wooden rollercoasters in the world does not need the MindBender. Knoebles is a gem just the way it is.

With all of the lunacy coming out of Florida's government recently, can you blame anyone for falling for it? This story is absolutely right in line with DeSantis' playbook and will probably give him the idea to do it for real.
