Cedar Fair Maxx Pass
THE ONE replied to Top Thrill Dragster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Call the park they will tell you before I went to coaster mania i had a freind that was coming with us and he whanted to get a season pass. and i was not sure that you could buy one at that time so I called the park and the women at the park said that if you purchase it online and print it at home their whould be no problem getting in. we arrived their and it was open, what i would do is call the park and they tell you what you can do. -

THE ONE replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I was their for EXT Saturday and the water park was packed but the rest of the park almost all the rides and coasters were walk on's. the Ragging Wolf Bobbs was closed when i got to it at 3:30. I did not ask when it whould be open and why it was down, not that they would have told me anyway. -

Question about B&M Stand-Ups
THE ONE replied to pierced_b0i's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Riddler has the most then Mantis or Georgia Scorcher. as for Iron Wolf I don't remember any hang time forces maybe. Chang does not ether, the reason Mantis does is from the brake on the first drop, Chang is for the most part is a mirror image with one more corkscrew and a few feet taller, and it has no brake on the drop. as for the rest of the B&M stand ups I don't know i have only ridden those 5. -
Meteor at Little-A-Merrick-A
THE ONE replied to THE ONE's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I agree Robb it's ghetto! There is a cemetery next to the park. A sewer treatment pant across the street. and the wind was bowling in the Wright direction cause that's all I could smell. -
Meteor at Little-A-Merrick-A
THE ONE replied to THE ONE's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think the Comet might be the size of the park. Well at least the length of the park wouldn't you agree Robb. I will be in the Dells area in a week or two depending on work so i will try to get anther photo update. not that things will change much by then. If it will even open by May. -
I have seen this befor it was on the news a year or two ago on the 10:00 news here in chicago. its cool not sure I would go on it. Did anyone else look a video ther is no restaint on it.

Intimin launch coasters
THE ONE replied to savemagicmountain's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
i know this is not a Intamin Rocket Coaster. Didn't Intamin change the lap bars on their wood coaster trains or is is a special restraint for El Toro at SFGAVD. IS this due to that thing with Six Flags to. look at the lap bars on Balder now El Toro -
I had some time to kill and since i was in Madison Wisconsin i figured to take a ride over to Little-A-Merrick-A and see what was going on with Meteor. I know it's a getto park. But since i was in the area i would do a update. Their does not seem to have be much progress with the ride since December when Duane Marden from rcdb was their. They have not finished tracking the coaster yet, there is no chain or rollbacks on the ride. Their was no one in the park to be found working on the coaster. I wonder it the ride will open this May or not. The Wild & Wooly Toboggan's cars where is shrink wrap on the track. I Forgot to take a picture of it before I left.

Lagoon Discussion Thread
THE ONE replied to Twister II's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Is everyone sure that Intamin is not the one manufacturing the the track for Zierer. I dont know I'm just asking because it look's alot like Intamin track, look at where the load upstop and guide wheels run at their white just like Intamin. -
Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
THE ONE replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have been hearring the same as others. one of the reasons for removeing the loop is so they could use lighter trains. I dont know if it is true or not but one can only hope that it could make the ride better. only time will tell -
2nd time not such a charm?
THE ONE replied to canada's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I never really liked flyers, and stand ups are ok but I"m from the Mid west so all the stand ups suck. I'm not far from SFGAM and Iron Wolf just plain ruff, and Mantis at Cedar point is getting bad to. -
Congrats to you Robb and Elissa I'm verry happy for both of you, I don't realy know you at all I think you will make GREAT PARENTS. Maybe I will see you when you are on your Mid west tip. Again CONGARTS

If Boulder Dash in truely that great, or a top 10 coaster it should not matter what seat or row you sit in. As for the night rides on it you realy need to ride Hades or Voyage at night. i think that both of them are far getter than Boulder Dash at night, I'm not saying that it is a bad coaster, it's a good coaster, but i don't think It's as good as people are it out to be. I was at Holiday World for Holiwood night's. and Voyage was increadable at night, but then again most coasters feel much better at night ,

Great picks I Might have to buy that camera. WOW the lines were that short,I wish i could have gone instead of going toSfgam but I had to work on Sat. I think they should consider rollbacks on Raptor, and now after this. Keep up the great work.
