They had hoodies? When I went last they have T-Shirts they made in front of you. It was like a iron-on thing and you picked the color and size you want.. And they just put this big sticker on.

Canobie Fan replied to Canobie Fan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The coaster is in greatshape... All it needs is about 5 feet of track at the base of ohe lifthill. So yeah.. If someone wanted to save it they could.. The thing is its not a coaster someone would save. It was a great ride and all. And real fun.. But its not something a park could buy and 'sell' it as a new ride.... Unless it was some really small park. -

Yeah.. When you walk down the midway alone its a bit creepy. Then you see like a stray cat jump out of a bush.. and its like "Oh crap!" Not all of Whaloms rides were lost. A few made new homes over the last few years. The tilt-a-whirl and scrambler both ended up at Edaville Railroad in MA.. As did the parks tumblebug.. But it hasnt been set up yet. -
As its a photo of me.. I vote that you win.

Ok so MA had a park up until 2000 called Whalom Park.. Yeah The place wasnt very big and didnt have much at it but it was still a nice place to spend a few hours... Even if Robb says it was ghetto.. Flyer Comet was a really good coaster and had one of the best tunnels I have ever been in. And the park also had some kickass old school flatrides... A bouncer, Rock N Roll (looper), Flying Scooters, a Fly-O-Plane, Whip, and a few other rides... well yeah.. A few says ago Robb had IM'd me and someone Whalom came up and I said I could do a "whats left" TR.. So here it is... Disclaimer ALL photos from inside the park were OK'D by the park sitter.(Yes even the ones from on Flyer Comet..) I did not jump any fences or break ANY rules... So I dont need any posts saying "You broke'd t9h lawz" as I didnt. I have been up to Whalom many times in the last few years to see whats been going on. I have been let inside the park a good 6 times now... And the park is Police'd so if you try and just go in.. You will get caught... Anyways... On to the photos. Kiddie land use to be here - I guess someone wanted some candy - Top of the waterslide tower - The waterslide tower after the slides were removed - Random football game - Car from the "Bouncer" ride (also goes by tiptop or Bubble Up) - A view from inside Flyer Comets "in field" - More Flyer Comet - The parks "welcome sign" / Funhouse - Sign from the 2000 season (last season) - Flyer Comet from the backside - Waterslide tower before the slides were removed - Flyer Comets cool tunnel had its own name! - Random midway games - Mini Golf - Bumper Cars - Inside the bumper cars - Left over from the rockets - Rockets left on the midway - Flyer Comets train sitting in the station - Flyer Comet - "POV" - More Flyer Comet - The park had been paint'n Comet white from yellow when they closed - The last turn - Track walking...

Flat Ride Intensity
Canobie Fan replied to Myst3Exile's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Zamperla Power Surge: I would give it s 5 or 6. Not that thrilling but it can be fun Video i took - KMG Freak Out: I like the bigger Afterburner better. But I guess I would give it a 6 or 7 Freak Out video I took - Afterburner video I took - (KMG or any other manufacturer of this type of ride) Speed: I love the KMG speed and the Funtime booster. I would give them a 9.. 10 if you get a 20 lap cycle Video of speed I took - -

You must have hit it on an off day or something.. I always seem to get a lot of air on Comet. -
Top 3 Six Flags Parks (Your opinion)
Canobie Fan replied to weatherkid17's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Seeing their coaster collection: Mine train - It use to have slow loads but the trains were updated this year so its a bit better. 64 feet Bobsled - Bobsled is NEVER open. It cant run wet.. And it rains almost everyday in the Lake George area In my last 9 vists over the last 3 years... It opened once.. And tested one other day.. But then it rained so it never opened. Boomerang - The boomerang is very smooth. Last time I rode it was in the snow Dark Ride - I hate N@CC as the line is always VERY long. But this year the park added fastlane to it and you no longer wait inline for it. Arrow Corskcrew - Never really has a wait.. Sometimes they give you 2 laps back to back. Comet - Only real reason to come to the park -

Canobie Fan replied to weatherkid17's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Uhh... Boomerang? More like the Comet! Comet is such a good ride. And most nights it has little to no line.. And they let you reride.. So you can sit in a seat from around 7pm till 10 and just lap it. -
