  1. Hey thats an awesome post and in the little time you had, you got a lot done. Just next time you go, I am not sure if you had one this time or not but you have to get a pink thing (its like the most amazing thing ever) Anyways, awesome post.
  2. I thought the same thing when I saw the colors and the fact it's over buildings. It reminds me of "rollercoaster" at nyny casino or whatever it is called now days. But I know universal would not let us down like that or would they?
  3. I have a question: Does anyone know how much it costs to do the fire effect? like do they use gas every time to do it, that just seems like it would cost a lot with gas prices the way they are. I mean on a slow day, will they be wasting the fire effect? Im just wondering
  4. So I was there, the day of the shooting. I really like how the video came out, even though I can only see myself like 3 times in the whole shoot but hey its all good. I thought we rode it more then 17 times, but then again I was not really counting, I just wanted to keep riding. Honestly Folks, if you have a like a weekend, come down to Texas, drive over to the Kemah Boardwalk , buy yourself some delicious food, get an all day pass and ride (I would have to say the best wooden coaster in Texas, i mean it beats Rattler and well the Giant hurts) anyways ride the best wooden coaster...you wont regret this wild ride, i can not say enough about it. I sound like a commercial. Anyways we should just have an all day ride marathon? who's with me?
  5. can you ask him why it took so long for them to add jason, leatherface and freddy when these three icons have been around for many years. Why bring them out now , i guess is the question, instead of before or later. Im not really sure how to word the question, so yeah.
  6. So i went last night and rode twice. Now the first one was just like during the day where it was wild and smooth but the second trp is the one that i will remember for a while. Im not sure if the track was wet still from the rain earlier in the day or perhaps it was that fact that the train was almost empty but it went super fast, I never even heard it click on the turns because we brushed by so fast. Again we were going alot faster it seemed then normal, i say this because at two points of the ride i could see the middl of the train pop up like it wanted off the track. I dont remember it doing that before, infact i think i may have gotten like a few more seconds of airtime as well...so what im saying??? Basically ride the coaster with no one on it and then you will see just how wild this thing is, it moved from my top 6 coaster to my 3rd favorite in one night, sorry i still like MF and X over it.
  7. are people really complaining because there doing what you have to do at every major theme park, get off the ride and walk back through the station, even if there is no line? why are we trying to find things wrong with the coaster, let the stupid news deal with that. Just enjoy it because its the only coaster we got for almost 300 miles. If you complain then it will only lead to more rules being enforced and who knows they could go crazy and add mid brakes like crazy so please for the coasters sake , just ride and enjoy. as for the people living near by, i know they did not always have peace, think about all the cars coming to and from Kemah, think about the boats, add concerts, fireworks, noise period...besides eventually you get used to the noise, how else do people live near airports or for that matter other theme parks, you deal with it and move on.
  8. Hey, so i rode it twice yesterday on my way to Galveston. I guess i caught it at a good time because it seemed fast and smooth for me, i rode once in back and once in the front, still not sure which ride i liked better...but i did like the airtime. I especially like how this coaster is not like other wooden coasters i have been on where it uses the force of the first drop to go up another large hill, no this coaster uses all that force on some wicked turns. In all I would have to put this up there in my Top 10 coasters, i mean i have not been on to many wooden coasters but The Beast for some reason still gets me (and no im not talking about the beast at kemah lol) But the Bullet is up on my list of rides and a must ride for anyone, especially those of you who just love wood over steel, im just happy its not a weak ride since its sort of our hometown park now
  9. You can do what i did when i started with coasters some 10 years ago, just read up the lingo on some sites and books. And for the question before about weight and size, since there not using seat belts it sounds like or looks like , then she may be able to fit but who knows how far the lap bar will have to go down. I remember back in the day when my dad used to not fit in the cyclone trains but then they changed them from the casket seats to the open trains and he was able to fit with ease. AlsoI wonder if they will come back after its all said and done to check up on the coaster to see if there going to have to add mid breaks and what not. I hope they just let it go. Otherwise we will have a Mean Streak.
  10. poor astroworld... and i did not think anyone really called, i was joking when i said i did...
  11. I called and asked if they needed a test dummy for the ride, i gladly take part...and just brace myself for the third hill sudden stop of pain. Haha, ok I didnt, but i would gladly take them on that offer. I just started a piggy bank with nothing but quarters so i can pay the 4.75 when this thing opens
  12. and NO i dont care if Kemah has nothing to do with Six flags , i just want to blame someone
  13. I think the coasters gods are giving them a hard time because someone had demolished all coasters from this area and so in return, they are having the hardest time because of it... YES I'M BLAMING SIX FLAGS, not astroworld but SIX FLAGS CORP. for the late opening and mishaps BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
  14. of course with all the rain and bad weather...that has extended this conscruction beyond anyones dreams. It has to get stuck on the ride, i know they will fix it but man i feel for these guys. I mean you work on something for so long, longer then you wanted to and then BOOM!!! i guess it will feel 10x better inside when it does crest the hill and makes it all the way around.
  15. All i know is that im super siked for this ride. I mean living in the Houston Area, just to have something to get a few thrills out of is going to be very nice. Now I have a friend who works for Kemah Boardwalk and she said they were going to open late August to open around the time they have like a Anniversary or something like that. I guess they were able to fix the corner where it hit the Steak House pretty close.
