  1. lmao. Yeah I was going to say Adventureland Long Island.. But the park got rid of its 2 star rides! Of the 2 topscans I have been on. AdvLands just OWN'D Thopres.. So much better in every way. Also the Surff Dance was running kickass even last year. Its funny.. I went to Adventureland just for the 2 flats they removed last year. Yet its also home to my 200th coaster.
  2. Yeah... Ill be there in 3 days.. Why couldnt the park hold out a bit longer...
  3. First - lol to "compost" thats what my dad has been calling the place for years! And second - you would have only got 3 at LC.. That kiddie is a bitch to get Canobie "I got it in 1998" fan and also Canobie "Lake Compounce sucks.. But I <3 Dash" Fan.
  4. yeah when I was at Prater in 2004 all the flats gave VERY long FUN cycles.. But when you pay 7$ for a ride.. You better get something good!.. And as for WGs Twister ride. I wish I rode it more then once last year
  5. Most parks seem to run flats tame... Most fairs dont mind when someone barff on a ride or after they get off.. Where as most parks do. So I think thats why fair rides seem to be run better. As parks dont want to deal with people getting sick from the rides.
  6. So yeah.... I wanted to go to Steel Pier before it closes forever at the end of this year... But its was only 2 coasters.. So it seemed like a long drive for 2 rides.. So I added 14 other coasters("16" in all...) And then.. I made it a day trip Plan was to get up at 3am... Drive all the way down to Wildwoood to be at Moreys when they open... Then make the short drive up to the 2 Ocean City parks.. Then to Steel Pier.... And then Storybook Land... And the last stop of the trip would be Blackbeards Cave.. So I would do the longest drive first and have a "shorter" drive at night...... So yeah.. I got up at 3am... Hit the road at 4.. And then around 6am in south CT just north of the NY state line...... My car 'play' "Stealth" (insert UK trip here).. Going down 95 at like 80mph... I Saw 5 seagulls in the street... 4 flew off..... 1 was a bit late. BAM!..Cloud-O-Seagull........ I pulled over at the first rest stop I saw to clean off the leftovers from my front bumper... I got to Wildwood at 10am... But the park didnt open till 11...Oops... but that gave me time to walk around and take photos... Anyways photos.. Yeah... Moreys was one of only 3 parks on the east coaster with more then 3 coasters that I havent been to yet... So I changed that... Great White... Its all "Hey look at me. Im at the beach" Am I the only one who thinks this sign is funny? Over where Dinosaur Beach used to be....Golden Nugget Mine is still sitting.. Doo Wopper...Its ok... I guess.. Yeah yeah yeah.. I know its a SLC.. But come on..You know its sexy. Great Nor'Easter was one of the first 3 SLCs in the US..Wooo! Yay after walking around for an hour.... The rides opened... And I rode Rollies Coaster...woo! After Rollies... It was time to ride the first Boomerang in the US! (And it might just be the worst) Rollies Coasters.....yeah After I finished that area.. I walked down to get my Great White credit. For some reason it was the only ride open in its area. But whatever... I still got to ride it. Line were so long... 3 of my 4 rides on Great White I was the only person on it. Mmm Vekoma goodness seen from the parks kickass logride. The kickass logride - Oh yeah.... Great White was my 399th coaster... So whatever of the next 3 coasters at the park I ride... Will be #400... So I went with...... Oh yeah It might look sexy.. And have a great view from the lifthill... But damn did it suck. So after hitting 400 on the SLC... I got the parks last 2 credits.. Then ran off to Ocean City. Doo Wopper had Stalker-Vission on it. Eh... it was ok I guess.. Yeah.. Its a "Hotdog Stand" themed ride.... And now 2 random photos of the first Flitzer on my trip... Blahblahblah insert text here - So yeah I left Wildwood and drove up to Ocean City where I would find 2 more parks and 6 more coasters...wooo The first of the 2 parks I did was Gillian's Wonderland Pier... Home to this nice Wacky Worm. I was shocked to see the park still had a Zamp Mixer... It was closed up.. But still.. They "have" it. Runaway Train was like a Windstorm coaster... But better Might just be the best steel coaster I rode that day.... Random wackyworm photo.... Random Runaway Train photo. Other random wackyworm photo... ""POV!11!!1!11!!"" Oh yeah. they also had this little kiddie coaster.. But it was closed... (missed credit #1) Ocean City park #2 - Playland's Castaway Cove... Also home to my trips 2nd Flitzer! Castaway Cove also had the Stalker-Vission Moreys had... YAY! Pinfari looper! And of the 2 I have been on.. this one was the "best" Pythons not so sexy trains... Oh god.. Here it comes.... And to think I rode it twice. Best coaster at the park - Cant you just feel the "ouch" looking at it? "Look at me! Im a Moser ride.. And I dont work!" The parks logride as seen from the wheel. The park also had an OK S&S tower...(That gave 2 rides back to back) Yes... thats a real dog swim'n in the logride water..... Yay kiddie coaster time! Of the 2 'Sea Serpent' named coasters I rode sunday.. This was the better.... Now that I was done with the 2 Ocean City parks... It was time to head up just a bit more north to Atlantic City.. To go to the one park I had set out to go to from the start. First...spin mouse....EVER. Yay soon to be closed kiddie coaster... Steel Pier was kinda..Really ghetto.. I dont think anyone is going to miss this place... """Art photo""" Not only is it the first spin-mouse.. It was also the best of the Zamp/Rev ones I have been on. (But still no Dragons Fury) Hey look! Someones POVing!!!11! The mouse ran so well.. I rode it twice ::O After that I rode the kiddie so I can run off to Storybook land before they close at 5. Yay Little Leaper.... One last photo of the soon to be gone mouse. Four days till im here!! So after Steel Pier my plan ws to run down the street to Storybook land.. But because I had a hard time finding Steel Pier.. I ended up parking like a mile away and I had to walk up and then back down the boardwalk.. By the time I got back to my car I had 20mins to make a 10min drive..And get the one kiddie coaster... So I just gave up and went on to Blackbeards....(Missed credit #2) So yeah... The time is now around 7pm.. I just rode 13 other coasters... And now for one more before the nice "4" hour drive back to Boston... Yay Dragon coaster! #410 ""POV11!!1!!" Dragons...train. Old ride used as random 'bench' Kiddie wheel....woo And then one last photo.. The Loli-Swings. So the time was now like..7.10pm... And I got set for the nice "4" hour drive home... To bad the Garden State parking lot wanted me to stay longer.... I left Blackbeard around 7.10pm... I didnt get to my house until FIVE AM!... So yeah.. I got up at 3am Sunday... went to 5 parks.. 14 coasters... 800 miles.... Went from MA to CT to NY to NJ to NY to CT to MA...... and got home at 5am...Monday... Fun fun fun....
  7. I <3 Rye Playland. Its such a nice small park. :-\! Rye >>>>> Southport
  8. Oh? I havent seen any full POV of it. and I didnt look at many photos.. But yeah you are right - http://p2.rcdb.com/picmax/busch-gardens-tampa/sheikra69.jpg
  9. Yeah the lift has both kinds of seats.. But I think it only have 1 or 2 gondolas and I think they were ment for handycap people. But its just faster to walk up the hill then it is to wait in line for the ski lift.
  10. Nope. http://rcdb.com/ig32.htm?picture=6 WTF? I said it DOESNT have a droping turn out of the station.. So what are you "nope"ing?
  11. Sorry James, but SheiKra does make a 180* turn out of the station. Colin C But its not a "dropping turn"
  12. Most? Uh. Only a some. B&M coasters with out "U-Turns" out of the station. Air Alpengeist Apollo's Chariot Batman la Fuga Batman - The Dark Knight Batman The Ride - SFGAdv Batman The Ride - SFGAm Batman The Ride - SFMM Batman: The Ride - SFNO Batman The Ride - SFOG Batman The Ride - SFOT Batman The Ride - SFStl Black Mamba Chang Crystal Wings Dæmonen Diavlo Diving Machine G5 Dueling Dragons Gambit Thrill Valley Georgia Scorcher Goliath - La Ronde Goliath - SFOG Great Bear Great White Griffon Incredible Hulk Insane Speed Kumba Lightning Mantis Nemesis Oblivion Patriot Pyrenees Riddler's Revenge SheiKra Silver Bullet Superman - Ultimate Flight - SFGAdv Superman - Ultimate Flight - SFGAm Superman - Ultimate Flight - SFOG Talon Tatsu Top Gun - PGA Top Gun - The Jet Coaster Vampire Vortex - Carowinds. So yeah. Its safe to say most do NOT have a U-Turn
  13. Eh.. A bit of a drive for me.. So I bet I never get around to going., But its good news for people in RI... What would the closest waterpark be anyways? SFNEs HH? WaterWiz?
  14. im going this weekend. Because I cant go the 23rd.. Ill be in SC
  15. Over on ThrillNetwork someone dsaid it broke.. And a few TRs have said its been closed a few days.
  16. Well when we got to the park ET was stop'd on the lift. So we went down to nitro. We didnt get over to the ET area till around 11 when we saw it had been open.
  17. Yes. Yes it is. I rode Balder something like 20 times (El Toro 8) and it was a good ride and all.. But El Toro is far better. The speed... The first drop.. The overall airtime it gives.. And El Toro OWNS Balder in its turns. Balder would have bene great if its turns didnt suck... El Toros are how Balders should have been.
  18. I was thinking it might have had something to do with TTD... But it didnt matter to me anyways as I dont like the ride.. El Toro >>>>>>>>> KK
  19. There wasnt any sign about Kingda Ka. but the midway was blocked off at the restrooms by the kiddie slides.. So it didnt even have hope. As for El Toro.. Sign says it opens at 12.. But the ride was open at 11.
  20. Yeah "Too hot for thrillnetwork" Tis why none of my TRs end up on that site Oh I guess I should also make a note that.... GASM and SUF didnt open till like...4pm KK never opened.. or tested.. Not that I would have wasted my time on it anyways... Yeah... thats it.
  21. So yeah... I had want'd more El Toro in my life.. And SFNE2005/Rich wanted more as well.. So we went..Yeah. So I had been to Gadv back in Aug and got my last 2 'open' credits I needed... El toro and Kingda Ka. But Rich was all "blahblahblah I need the kiddies still.." And I was all "L o L z.. I got themz last year.. have fun" and then he got all "Hey! I drove your-ass down here.. now ride!".. So i did.. So yeah..BBLTT had the last 5 cars blocked off... yay! After that I HAD to ride Road Runner.... But then I got to ride something..Uh...good I still love Nitro. But after last week at La Ronde... Nitro just wasnt as good ...But we still rode it 3 times 6 Days ago we had been on Vampire.. The BEST BTR I had ever been on.. So GADvs BTR didnt do much for me.. But hey look! Chick'N'Chick is back! "Hey look! Im closed...Still.........." El Toro was only running one side ..wait what? Such a good ride. And with Q-Bot gold.. we got 5 rides on it El Toro is sooo much better then Badler I mean..Balder; Mmmmm...Airtime.... Uhh..... You'd like that wouldnt you... Oh yeah.. Its FrightFest time.. So they had all this crap out. El Toro + Backseat = !!! Uh... Rich told me to take a photo of his shoe... So here it is. Remember when SFOG had a para-tower.... Yay Intamin-e-goodness.. And the only noncoaster I rode. SUF didnt even open till like.. 4.. And I dont even know why we rode it.. It sucks...still. "Hey look at me! You'v seen me 5 times now.. And I still havent let you ride me!" (At least I got to see it test this time.. ) Uh....T-Shirt? Woo.. MORE El Toro... After El Toro ride #5 we went over to Medusa.. And I still love it. Before we left for a nice long 6 hour ride home.. We were going to get one more Toro ride.. But then we didnt.
