Cool TR I was there for fearfest but I just have a thing that I dont go in haunted houses in the day time just not that scary... And this is probably just me but could you make the pics smaller so they fit the screen...its kinda hard to read the TR...

Are you sure...last time I checked I was broke as hell...

nope not at all very normal!

WOW I wanna live that long...heck even longer! I bet she had some stories to tell...

cool pics...man they must have alot of skelatons on hand!

the big boy seat has given me the best drop on ANY coaster I have ever ridden!

Gotcha! :shock: 8)

WOW they let yall dress up! Thats pretty cool! Looks like you had fun and did alot of kids come up to you for autographs?

Hummm...still trying to figure out why that would be scary... From what I hear bigger is better anyway!

hummm...I dont know about the rest but I like to see some teaser photos before I be click the link!

I know alot of parks that run one train full and one empty to make sure everything is cool with it....

I wouldnt go as far as to bash the girl and call her ugly and stuff like that. Also for what she did, we dont know the circumstances just yet...(but we kinda know ..)

Thanks guys for the feedback...as jon stated (who is the head of my fan club, see him for details 8) ) I use a tripod for a big majority, if not all, of my steady shots and for the movement shots I generally just move with the coaster so it wouldnt matter. But yeah I highly suggest tripod usage if you are a die hard video fanatic like me! And I dont care what you guys say that song is the shiznit! 8)

I really liked the first picture...looks like you can just walk down the street and reach out and touch it...

I guess he is talking about when you crest the lift hill and some coasters ease off of it and some just shoot down the drop...while I never really paid attention to it I would say all have the same effect due to the laws of gravity lol lol

the most trimmed coasters I have been on are wild mouse coasters! I guess so you wont slam too much into the cars?

Then why are you here...ohh you must be here for the donkeys! And I understand what denx2 is talking about. Say for instance you didnt know anything about the park...you go and realize that you can complete everything in a few hours...you may feel a little cheated. Especially when you find out that you could have driven about a hour or so south to BGT that has the theming, the atompshere, the rides, the shows, and the animals...and not to mention free beer for about the same price if not less. Thats it im done w/ IOA...that is until the next HHN next year !

what would you say a small park is...IOA is a pretty small park to me...

im using a JVC MZ-200US digital camcorder. Its a pretty good piece of machine. And the editing program I use is pretty simple. I dont have the option to mute one clip and have one with sound, I dont have the option to slow clips down or speed them up. At first I was like aww man but now it has taught me to be more creative and know that timing is everything! But the effects, like the dancing coasters, are done with me having "movie majic" skills... For instance, the twoface segment consisted of me having two clips of the coaster, one going foward and one going backwards. With me so far...good! Then I take out a segement about .08 secs long from each clip of at the same spot. Then I rotate from the return trip to the outbound trip clips to get that "dancing" effect. Then I just end with the longer version of the opposite clip to finish out the trip. I use the same concept on the other "dancing" clips but each one has a different variation. Its easier done than said... But using a tripod and experiementing with different shots, angles, and making your own effects really makes a difference! Im glad you all like it and I am considering making that my video entry next year...with some minor adjustments 8). That or my "hooray for carowinds" video.

Man all I have to do is ride a coaster everyday to get a thread started about me? <------heads to carowinds to park it on top gun...

hummm...does anyone have any song choices... :?

Since no one has said it yet... TAER ER DOWN !!1!!1!!1!11!!

Montu is pretty good but I think I prefer its near clone Top gun over it. THe batwing on top gun seems to be better as well as the lack of the brake run. Yep thats one rough coaster but as far as dueling, I have heard several stories as to why it doesnt but to make a long story short...it doesnt anymore. however it would be cool if it did. You really think that? I thought it was one of the best. I mean how many 4d attractions are out there thats live instead of CGI. And the story line was pretty good. I was very impressed and I like how it uses effects that other attractions of the same nature dont (if you have been on it you know the ones Im talking about ) Glad you had fun!

LMBAO lol lol I totally agree with you. I didnt wanna say it myself but something seems wrong with dude...does he have a job? I would get so tired of going to the same park every day...

WOW...I forgot that park still existed lol lol...
