JZ's Indiana Beach Photo TR!

No waiting for 'special seats' but there was no crowd, so you didn't even have to wait for the front or back. -

Hoosier had some airtime. I never got to ride in the front, but there were a few moments in the backseat. It just has to warm up a bit. The operations on that ride were SOOOOO SLOW. Cornball's was fine, but Hoosier was terrible. They were so lazy. -

More photos! I'll have to pick a date for my return. I start school the 25th of August..not sure if I want to take the risk of planning a date after that because I don't know how my classes will be.... And skies cleared up as we entered Indi. Thanks for reading everyone! Some pictures were out of order, I'll look through what I didn't post and see what I can put up later. -Zach/JZ Indiana has many uses for corn. Like a pop corn farm! That's going to slow things down... Thank YOU Indiana Beach for a *near perfect* theme park visit! I got my 100th credit (Hawg) and had a FANTASTIC time at this amazing park. I'll be back soon! One last shot of Hurricane... It got dark...fast. Sadly, this was the last train we'd see running on any coaster. Bad storms were on the way. Storms rolled in....time to check if Hawg is open for another spin... Had to get my picture with the crazy flying bobs girl! lawlz, my flash set off the shooting range. Bahahaha! Zach, how much airtime is there? ....dude, better than sex floater air! Time for a kiddie viking ship take over! I had to take up two rows. -

Downward heartline roll. Scary. Very scary. Annndddd upside down. Half heartline hangtime roll! Turn around to.... I found it! Where'd the track go? Smiles all around! Heading down the half loop On over to Hawg! Heading over to the lift Smile, you're on TPR! Hairtime! Coming out of the helix.. Here's some proof. And here... Incredible airtime here. I failed. Heading down the first drop Indiana's finest! Indiana Beach! Gum tunnels! Cornball's first drop. Lateral airtime. Hurricane's lift EXCITEMENT Ejector air! Heading over the top of the lift. Rocky's Rapids! Hey Larry! Backseat....third drop...wow. Oh yeah, front seat ejector air. Weee turn around See that girl? She's in normal riding position now....just wait. Back to Cornball Express!

Thanks guys! Words can't really describe a ride on Steel Hawg. All of the elements it has are different, new, and unique. It's something that's a must ride! Just a quick update I'm leaving for work in a few... Airtime can be scary when there's hardly anything holding you in. Dueling coasters! That would be Lost Coaster track. Oh, that's why there's nets. Off to rescue the Pirate Princess? I hope not. Hoosier Hurricane flies overhead Cornball Express! It's a quick lift. Cornball's lift. This viking ship rules! Dr. Frankenstiens Castle! So much fun. Beats any other walkthrough Got head? NOMNOMNOMNOM...ugh, it's gone. FEED ME CHILDREN! BREADSTICK! OMNOMNOMNOM Is the a breadstick? Hey Bob, what's that on your head? -

More... Evac update ONE of TWO: -Our second ride on Lost Coaster. We get to the part where you stop just for a moment before the old guy explodes the dynamite and you drop into the double down. And we stop. I'm still not sure if it's apart of the ride until the animatronic turns off. We wait for 15 minutes or so and a maintentance dude comes to a pannel next to us and says "Ya all clear? Oh, well here they go!" And release the brakes. So he had to find us in SUPERSTITION MOUNTAIN! If you see me in the picture, James Dillaman took it! Time for a lunch break. Ribbon fries with cheese and bacon. Mmmm. And a break from this TR with Ramen! Hey Cameron! Lake Shaffer water soaked ass. Something feels funny... Here I come! Hey JZ...go ride that! The Skyroom Restaraunt Cornball and Hoosier Awesome helix surrounded by waterslides! Weee airtime filled first drop! Lazy river of lulz. Galaxi! A fun little ride. Smooth. Crazy waterslides and the down Double Shot =( Cornball's AMAZING twisted mess of track. A look back to the front of the park. Coaster on coaster action! Steel Hawg heading down the ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY DEGREESE drop! And now....Cornball Express! Here's the 'train' going through it. Yeah, wierd, jerky ejector air. JERKY! CRAZYYY lost coaster track. Lost Coaster heading up the elevator lift Hurricane from the Sky Ride. I love sky rides! So was Mike. Oh, James was there. Indiana Beach doesn't have room for trees, it only has room for new rides! Can you spot FIVE out of SIX coasters that IB has? Mmm....Steel Hawg hiding in the backround. It's a good ride, but it's not great. I had a lot of fun! Up and over the hills. I wish I could say they're airtime hills...but they almost are. Turning around for the way back. Coming out of the drop and turning around at the end of Indiana Beach. Getting ready for the drop under the bridge! First little airtime hill after the first drop. Weee..look at that backround! Right, left, then drop into the lake! Hoosier has a funky pre drop. I think Lost Coaster might actually end up here during the ride. Just..jumping off the track. An idea of the main midway. Lots of rides. Hurrican is on the water! An art shot already?! Lost coaster! Hoosier Hurricane track Two of their big wooden coasters -
Hey TPR! Just got back from my trip to Indiana Beach, and what a park. It's an experience. You all need to go there now!!! Coasters: LoCoSuMo - Wow....wow. You need to ride this to truly understand what's so unique and odd about this ride. It does things you never thought a coaster would do! Galaxi - An oldddd Schwarzkopf. It's awesome! Helix and airtime. Tig'rr - Another Schwarzkopf. A really cool coaster I've been wanting to go on for quite a while...it's very different...not many are around anymore! I thought it was very fun. Hoosier Hurricane - I thought it was a fun ride. It's got beautiful views...it was fun. Good, not great. ----- Cornball Express - My new #2 woodie. What a fantastic coaster! Buzzbars freaking rule. See pictures below that show the wheels OFF THE TRACK...the airtime is crazy on this ride. I found myself standing up half the time! GREAT coaster. A top ride. Steel Hawg - Ummm....holy crap. A super fast, steep lift; 120* drop that's nearly an inversion; ejector air; CRAZY outside curve; half heartline role into half loop; ejector air; CRAZYYYYYY downward heartline roll into a turn around. Wow...what an insane ride. I loved it. The elements were taken at the perfect speed. Not too long, not too quick. This is a top 15-20 coaster for me. **DR. FRANKENSTIEN'S CASTLE** - For all those whole skipped this when they came....turn around and do this 7 minute walk through. Classic scares, surprises, and things you just HAVE to see! Flats, darks, water rides, and more. This park has it all!: Double Shot - Broken down...sadness! Sea Dragon - Viking Ship with floaty air on every swing...I loved it!! Flying Bobs - Complete with an awesome enthusiastic ride op! Falling Star - Laterals, airtime, classic ride! Paratrooper - Yup. Splash Battle - Looked okay, didn't ride. Water Slides - Two of the ones outside of the waterpark. Did one! Water Swing - A MUST! AWESOME RIDE! Den of Lost Thieves - Interactive shooting dark ride. Sky Ride - Beautiful views Great Wheel - See above. Paddle Boat Excursion on the ....Indiana Beach Boat. It was scenic. Log Flume - Not so wet, it was fun. Scrambler - Yep! Flying Eagles/Crows - SNAP! Yeah, check out that list above. All star cast. Park Staff: Sometimes I couldn't understand them, some were very enthusiastic. A very park knowledgable crew. And now...one of my favorite parks; Indiana Beach. Enjoy, and be patient with the updates! It's a small update for now...I couldn't sleep, but now I can! More tomorrow! -Zach Looking down on Hoosier... Most people look at the park, I say look at all the lake view homes! What a view they have. It gives an idea of what the park's like. Almost like a mini Cedar Point size/layout. In true 'ride all the rides now' fasion, we hit the low capacity ones. Yay antique cars! Here's inside Hurricane's station. Dueling wooden coaster action. Heading up to the station. I had no idea which track went where at this point. It was everywhere. Hurricane! hm...which one first... Bars, bars on the windows to keep out the homeless traffic. What you can see from the queue....not much! The first coaster upon entering. Wow. What a ride! It's like we have the park to ourselves! It's 10AM, and time for some coasters. Looks like there won't be any lines! We'll be there in a few to see!

Better Theming or More Track
PKI Jizzman replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Grizzly not only has theming...it's one INSANE rapids ride. I felt like we were going to capsize everytime I rode it! I don't think it can compare to any other rapids ride I've been on. As far as the ride. Theming...Animal Kingdom's rapids is kick ass. I'm torn in two. I like both! Theming and a good ride. Theming - Indiana Jones, Maverick, Scooby Doo, Space Mountain (DL) Non - Voyage, Goliath, Diamondback, Drop Rides -

JZ's Holiday World Visit May 20th
PKI Jizzman replied to PKI Jizzman's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
As said before, hopefully it will even be open for you to ride it! It was open a for 20-30 minutes total when I was there...I almost forgot these pictures! Then, ALL OF A SUDDEN...Pilgrim's Plunge turns into MEGAS XLR...and Megas walks away. The end. Hm...nothing under the boat...but what's that noise? These guys have been baking in the sun for a good hour or so. -

JZ's Holiday World Visit May 20th
PKI Jizzman replied to PKI Jizzman's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Photos...the last update! (Big one) Splash! Thanks for viewing everyone! Holiday World is an AMAZING park, go out and visit! Voyage is my new NUMBER ONE coaster! -Zach Hot stuff! On the way over to Raven, I caught the "hot" part of the dive show Wee...last Voyage pic, I swear! Ughhh...another photographer. There were a lot of cute girls at Holiday World. Two thumbs way up! It's very hard to photograph so close due to the sheer speed it's at when it FLIES by. Time for Voyage once again! The station and the cars. Heading off into the village to get some birds. Granny tells you how you can bring dinner home in time for Thanksgiving! Pepsi Oasis. Where employees and guests can enjoy free Pepsi. Well, in my case...Dr. Pepper. I win. Shirt on and backseat of a Voyage, I'm feeling better now! Pilgrim's Plunge made my boob slightly sag. That's fantastic. What the hell was that?! It looks like...liquid lava. LAVA COMING TO GET YOU! See? Not pleasant at ALL If you guessed "Wet Cubs Fans" you're correct. Voyage intermission. That's nice. What's behind wall of water number one? -Wet Cubs Fans -Scared young girls -Jared's lost phone A little wave of water coming to get you! It looks SOOO cool! So much fun! But my ride...just sucked! Maybe I'll have to ride it again... Yeah..55mph right into a very abrupt stop. I don't know about the front row, but all the others are cramped. I'm 5'8" and I SMASHED my knees in the seat infront of me. And a wall of water right over the front seat. Check out the theminggg...see, this part is fun, skimming across the water...wait until you hit the water.. Approaching the water... Oh, yeah...water hitting you at 55mph..that's fun. Yeah, let's build that. Wait, they let people on this ride? One more with the train... Go ride Voyage, now! I love this ride. One of THREE 90* turns. PP area... Testing! First drop madness. AT 66 DEGREESE. THAT'S STEEP Look out for the 90*!!! Foosh. Off into the woods... Mm...Voyage on a sunny day. I understand this ride will be a million times prettier than it is right now later this year? It looked like a Cedar Fair job right now. Random hay, cement, and mud. Yuck. Some nice views of Voyage...I could have gotten closer, but not much else you could see... Yay for mat racers! Zoombabwe, one of two slides with a line...something I didn't ride. Shut up James! Six waterslides in this picture. I sh*t you not. Call Intamin and tell them to make a steel rival of Voyage. Oh dear God. Sheer beauty and amazingness. Oh, and an interactive layout with more airtime and laterals. YES LATERALS, OMG YES. ACRers said "let there be a good first drop" ...and there was one. Punch-you-in-the-stomach-brakes Chalk Legend -
Photo TR: Cedar Fair's King's Island
PKI Jizzman replied to Electerik's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Kings Island is a great park if you want variety. -Flying coaster -Suspended -B&M Hyper -Arrow Multilooper -SOB/Beast -Racer coaster -IJST - FOR THE RECORD....the ARTIFICIAL watersplash has been gone since last year. -Launched Coaster -Mine Train -Inverted Coaster -Giant Drop -Huss Giant Frisbee There ya go. It may be mediocre...but now we have Diamondback. I totally agree about Beast. For the 30th year they add a small sign and "give it a new entrance"....thats extremely hard to find. COUNTLESS times people come up to me and ask where it is. And the ride is just okay, nothing special to me. Well...at night it's better. A LOT better. And Robb, the height restrictions used to be lower. I'll try to find my old park maps....but CF raised them and put on the seatbelts. Restricting riders too small or too big! -Zach
