  1. Looks great. Even an unpadded steel bar should be a major improvement, since most of the roughness of Vekoma coasters is headbanging, not shuffling.
  2. Meh. I would much rather pay $40-$50 to go too a Cedar Fair or Six Flags park, or just go too Univeral, which looks like the better park anyway.
  3. Holy **** that is crazy. About as bad as the Final Destination 3-esque Eftling accident. This is not a good year for theme park safety.
  4. Great TR, very different from most TRs. I loved the Mt. Fuji air
  5. Can you please make a download? I can't view streaming videos on TPR. EDIT: Nevermind, it works in IEtab. EDIT 2: Can you make a full POV, I don't have NoLimits.
  6. Venom, a "Bouncy-Bouncy Coaster", which features a miniature Bouncy Bouncy attached to launched coaster that performs several bunny hills, an immelmann, and a finale of two stengel dives and a trick track. Everyone loved it so much but...
  7. Nevermind, I realized that all billboard pieces are in the billboard window, and found that a different set I downloaded already had what I was looking for. A mod can lock this now please
  8. Can someone please send me in a PM or post here yesnt's Billboards set, or some other set that has billboards that can be placed as a path cover? I really need it, and I can't download yesnt's set because I have no E-Mail account, and it is on a page that requires registration to download.
  9. * B&M * Asia * Yellow track This is a toughy And remember, using RCDB is cheating!
  10. Realized how much of a waste that was, so they tore down Psyclone and replaced it with a 200 foot tall, 7000 foot long, 80 MPH Gravity Group terrain woodie with 42 seconds of airtime and a qaudrupale down first drop! Everyone was elated, but Six Flags drove it into the ground and by it's 4th season it was as crappy as...
  11. Iron Dragon, Cedar Point? Big Bad Wolf, BGE?
  12. One of the best has too be Heide Park's Desert Race. The black track is soooooooo sexy A bad one is Limit, at the same park. White and Green don't mix. Big Loop is even worse with the bright green supports.
  13. No restraints. But it was boring and slow that everyone got off halfway through. Everyone thought that Dragon Wagon 10 times as fun, so they...
  14. INSANE 90 DEGREES. Harry Potter then yelled "NO WAI!" And him, Maverick, and Magnum ended up in an endless chain of "O RLY?, YA RLY, NO WAI!" Until...
  15. I tried to emulate the usual TPR style as best as I could for this TR, I hope you guys like it! -Year 1 TR- Taiga was truely a different sort of park. I had really heard next too nothing about it, except it was going to have a meh looking B&M. However, I was going to be in the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia for sightseeing, so I decided too stop by, even though I had heard horror storys about the crowds. Getting there was truely an adventure in itself. I will spare you the details, but I will say that the park is truely in the middle of nowhere. I arrived at the park around 4 PM. The forecast was scattered light showers, but walking through the gates, it really started too pour. I wanted to do the Taiga Expierence because I am a documentary buff, but with the rain I decided to run too the rides section before they closed everything. Arriving, I ran too Windigo first, where it was a walk-on for the front. I anticipated a meh, forceless B&M, but it really took my breath away. The first half is forceless, but the suprise in the tunnel (Which I won't give away) was crazy and the second half was forcefull and completly different. As we arrived in the station, the operator told us our ride was almost 5 seconds fast, and park regulations stated that they had too shut the ride down. I was kinda annoyed, because I wanted a backseat ride, but whatever. I looked at the park guide for indoor attractions that would be running in the rain, and found Ore Cart, an indoor wooden coaster. Ore Cart was really something else, it started as a weird darkride thing, and then had a tiny coaster section that actually had a decently sized drop. After that, I wen't over too another strange dark ride, a tram going through a mountain named "Mining Expedition". It was really strange and not very good, everything but the very new looking animatronics was very retro, and it seemed rushed. With the rain getting worse, I headed all the way down to Taiga Expierience. It was a good show, but unfortunatly, I didn't get any pictures because they wouldn't let me take my camera in. I walked back up the hill, and with the rain not getting any better, and stomach growling, I stopped by the Warehouse restaraunt, and had a BBQ Chicken Cheddar Melt. It was affordable (Only $7.49 USD!), good sized, And excellent food. You can't go too Taiga and not eat at the Warehouse. Since it was clear that the rain was not gonna stop, I decided to run too the back of the park and ride the two ride back there if they were open, and then leave. I first did Chute De Chute, because I couldn't get much wetter than I already was. It had no line, and was a decent ride, but a liittle short, and made a pretty big splash. I proceeded too the very back, where I saw Timbermine, another weird ride. It had insane ejector air, but it made a pretty terrible noise and was very rough for a drop tower. I thought it was really old, but the operator told me it was brand new. Must just be that it is an in-house job. After that, the rain still wasn't letting up, so I left, and picked up an awesome Windigo shirt on the way. Overall, it was a cool, very unique park, and I would love to get more time to explore it and take in the scenary. I ended up staying only about 1.5-2 hours at the park. Total Ride Count; Windigo: 1 Ore Cart: 2 Mining Expedition: 1 Taiga Expierience: 1 Chute de Chute: 1 Timbermine: 1 On to the pics! As I left, I took this shot of the crazy Taiga Ridge falls, which jump out as if saying "Screw Windigo, I'm the star here!". Thanks for reading this TR! Like the food, Taiga's merchandise is inexpensive and high quality. This is one of the many gift shops. But at the bottom of the hill, the first half pops out and yells "I AM EMO, GIMME ATTENTION!", but I say "Naw, you suck!" and leave. Windigo's first half was last seen slitting it's wrists in a dark, secluded bedroom. I tried too get shots of Windigo, but unfortunatly, it is an example of Beastus Shyus (Hard to Photograph Coaster) and this about the best I got. The very cool enclosed queue. Timbermine, the creepy in-house drop ride. The cute boats on Cute de Cute. The crazy queue for Cute de Cute... Err, Chute de Chute. The Warehouse. Great food and not insane prices like most parks. And they had free soft drinks too (It was Pepsi though, eeeeeewwww...) The end of the pathway, probably for a future attraction. OMG 1000 FOOT STANDUP AQAUTRAX!!!111!!!! Urgggggg... I CAN MAKE IT. The TE building again. I was going to do the train, but I decided to wait until the rain let up. The one shot I got off Mining Expedition. Cameras where allowed, but None of the shots turned out any good. Ore Cart was really weird. It was rough, short, and completly pointless, but in a cool way. It had no line, so I rode twice. The immense wait for Windigo. Canadian people must be in cahoots with Japan, look at all the cloaking devices. Windigo's entrance, through the... *killed* Taiga's "Town Sqaure" area. By the top of the hill, I was so out of breath I nearly collapsed. I need to lay off the funnel cakes. Taiga is home to "The Hill". The building for Taiga Experierence. Screw that, let's ride Windigo! The very rustic entrance to Taiga Park.
  16. Those trains look great, the best looking PTCs I have ever seen. And if there really aren't seatbelt, they should ride great too
