Although I'm not really into skiing, I find these pictures very interesting and fascinating. What a megastructure Those bobsled/toboggan thinks are so cool ! What is a dayticket costing ? Once the Dubailand themeparks are open, I definitely consider a trip to Dubai.

East Coast Photo TR: BGE and SFGAdv (8/25 & 8/27)
Groteslurf replied to Olsor's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Incredible pics. The ET/KK skyline pics are just awesome. I'm visiting those 2 parks next year early June and I'm already now so excited : what an incredible set of coasters can be found in BGE and SFGA -

TPR Arrives in Japan!
Groteslurf replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think it is. On the parkwebsite there is a pic of an op hosing water over the people riding the coaster. So they added the water feature to the coaster and now call it Splash Bandit. It is in any case very very weird, certainly if it also has a backward train on the track. -

TPR Arrives in Japan!

After some searching found a pov of Bandit. Bandit looks indeed like an awesome coaster, beautifully spread over the park. I add the link to the pov in case others are interested. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IynGv2hvWVk Edit : If I understood correct, there is also a train riding backwards. -
After checking the possible flights, schedule has been amended slightly again, as follows : Fly in on Saturday May 24 : Evansville A/ Holiday World,Sunday May 25 B/ Kings Island, Monday May 26 C/Cedar Point, Tuesday and Wednesday May 27 + 28 D/Geauga lake, Thursday May 29 E/Kennywood : Friday May 30 F/Hershey, Saturday May 31 G/ Knoebels, Sunday June 1 H/Dorney, Sunday June 1 I/ SFGA, Monday & Tuesday June 2 + 3 J/KD, Wednesday June 4 K/BGE, Thursday June 5 L/ Six Flags America, Friday June 6 fly back from Washington DC on Friday evening June 6. Depending on what will happen in GL, we might not visit GL. In stead we would then foresee 1 day Knoebels and 1 day Dorney + waterpark. Now I've been trying to get an overview of the total route and would like some locals to check whether I didn't make huge mistakes. Plse check following map. (it's on city level, not street level). Thanks in advance.

Nice TR. My last visit to Drievliet already dates May last year, so did not ride the X-coaster yet. Although I want to ride it, I hate that type of lapbars. Last year on Abismo, they nearly crushed my ribs. Twistrix is indeed a very weird but unique coaster. Although no thrills, I enjoyed Twistrix.

Photo-TR: Heide Park (It Was So Crowded)
Groteslurf replied to Hattuchili's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
If I'm not mistaken, Heide park is actually Germany's biggest themepark based on the size of the park. If you compare the coasterstats of this park with e.g. CP of SFGA, then you are right calling HP a little park -
Photo-TR: Heide Park (It Was So Crowded)
Groteslurf replied to Hattuchili's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Hi Soren, nice to read from you again. Heide park is such a nice park but unfortunately approx 500 km from where I live so not a park I can visit regularly. Luckily, I have to attend a meeting in Hamburg in 2 weeks and I will be able to squeeze in a visit to Heidepark the afternoon of 10th of September. I'm really looking forward to riding Colossos again and try out Desert Race. As I will be alone while visiting HP on the 10th, if you (or someone else) would like to meet up that day, plse let me know. Edit : I hope the crowds will be ok that day. -

Some very nice pics. Good job. I've only been once to the parks in Orlando 3 years ago but my long term planning is to visit Florida again in about 3 years. Especially Orlando is such an amazing place with all those nice theme- and waterparks very close to each other.
