PKI Jizzman

I absolutely loved it. It made you feel as you were right along with the crew. Spoilers. Everyone wants to know. Highlight to see. The Monster: The Parasites: What are you waiting for!? Go see it now!!!!!!!

Seeing it tonight! The monster is rumored to be tentacled. And the small monsters are supposedly spider-like; the bite from them causes you to inflate until you explode.

Now that I look at it, KI has only put in one major THRILL Coaster in the past 7 years. IJST, Reptar were in '01 and '05 and Firehawk installed in mid June '07. Sure, they have added TR:TR and Delirium, KI hasn't had an origional thrilling/intense coaster since Face/Off in '99. I'm discluding SOB because it was a problem and bad descision since they thought of it. HOPEFULLY we will have this B&M. -J "I KI doesn't suck...but it's not great..."Z Leaving for Australia in 2 days.

^Yeah. I was lucky to get in 3 rides on Saturday before 1pm. I got in the park early, too! What's up with Maverick having an HOUR line even when you get in the park at 9AM? Well, thankfully it was day 2 at the park and I had gotten in my rides the day before. When I left around 2, I didn't see a line shorter than 45 minutes. And that was for Gemini. I know Dragster, MF, Maverick, Mantis, Raptor, and Magnum had atleast 1-2 hour lines. Rediculous.

Rant.... I'm going to agree. I don't think Kings Island as a whole will be able to exceed expectations. Maybe in a few ways: Like the Nick U or possibly a coaster. The park will have to have a huge turn around to be an excellent park. Sadly, I can't see that happening. I like to go to Kings Island and I have fun with my friends...but I have more fun hanging out and talking with them than I would riding a ride. The park itself only has a few POSITIVELY standing rides IMO - Drop Zone, Firehawk, Beast, and Top Gun, and Delirium. And not all those are rides that should be a LARGE park's icon! Maybe the Beast because of the age, and it's old school rep...but this is the present. Vortex isn't the coaster with most inversions, FoF isn't the only launch coaster, Beast isn't the beast it was, King Cobra was recently demolished, and Racer is not the tallest and fastest. Plus, they wasted money on SOB, and didn't make many improvements. Hopefully we will get this B&M. It will be something new and something that everyone would enjoy for quite a while. -J "Rant over..." Z

^Yes, I'd say it has potential. But as far as the coaster goes... -Area Survey Markers spotted during Halloween Haunt -"Layout" posted in a magazine It's a rumor. But I think we have good chances.

Yup. I have a memory card that will hold 4 gigabites of 8MP photos/videos. I'm going to take an extra card to be safe.

Wow, it's been a while. New sign is up. I guess it looks nice.

I'd say it's on par with Firehawk's crappy station.

I'm going to see this the day before I leave to Australia. I can't miss this

Holy crap. I'm going to ride that as many times as I can! I can't wait!!!

I am psyced for this movie. It looks so....awesome. It's got me so interested in what the monster is, what the movie it about.....ugh! Man, I can't get enough of this movie! But I hope it lives up to the hype.

Happy birthday, Robb! I hope you get lots of Wonka candies -JZ

Thanks for the info, djrappa. Like I said, I really want to get out to all theme parks I can get to, but it will be up to the family if they want to go....or if they will let me go by meself, which I have NO problem with! I've been savin' up my money and I'm going to get as much as I can out of it. I'm probably going to try to go to Dream World or Movie World during a school day since I can skip and go wandering around Brisbane. Hopefully the crowds will be minimal during those days.

I'm leaving in 13 days! I can't wait. I'm getting some school work done and preparing for that stuff, and getting things ready to pack. I'm deffinately going to be going to Dream World and Movie World, but not 100% sure on everything else. I am going to do my best to try, but since I can't drive and I will be living in a whooooooooole different house, I'll have to appreciate what I am able to do.

Aw darn! That's when I'll leave for my AU trip. I'll be in LAX and have a 4 hour lay over....hmm. Risk my trip to AU......go to TPR party.....eh Can't wait for the DVD and have a balst!

I tried to be abit clever when writing this TR. I'll put up some more shots of Rumbler when I get home.

Wow...I thought this was funny. Reminded me of Clamps from Futurama. LOL!

Yeah, but it was a quick visit to the park since the rest of the family wanted to go horse riding or hiking or something.....I do want to visit Dollywood at night.

MMM - Beech Bend is in Bowling Green, KY. It's about an hour and a half south of Louisville. Tanks - Yeah, I'll have to try that. I just tried the arms out and legs out trick. IMO, the best way to drop is being relaxed. Arms out above and beside your thighs, and legs just hanging.

Well, Ginzo....I forget my camera! I have no idea if this cave even had a name, it was just on a friend's private property. There were some really narrow parts and it was just me, my uncle, and two flashlights. You don't know what total darkness is until you sit in a cave with no lights on. It's pretty scary. You can see NOTHING. Put your hand up to your face and you can't see it. I have a few pictures on my phone....but they can only stay there

EDIT: Gryff, I didn't even see the Scat 2, Dark ride haunted house, or the Wild Mouse! I really looked all over to try to find them! Maybe they were taken down for the offseason/winter? Over across the pond, they have this amazing ride. I've heard some Midwest Trippers claim this to be their new favorite drop ride.....and I had no clue how this could be better than Drop Zone at KI..... You may not be able to tell, but I am completely out of my seat. First off, the thing above your head is preventing you to see how high up your are. And second, the drop is so abrupt and the harnesses are so crappy, you can move them 4 inches off you. Your body is really out of that seat. It probably made Terrance make that WHEEN sound. BEST drop ride I have been on!!! After my awesome Shock Drop rides, I ran into some lost family members! Power Surge....oh, how I wanted to ride it. But it was closed. More pretty lights... Hell, I'll pay three bucks to wait a few minutes to ride this fantastic coaster! If this was at some other park, the wait would probably be 30-45 minutes easy! OMG POV. Nah, go watch Erik's; it's kick ass. LOL. This awesome nerf rocket launcher. Go ahead, instert your rocket polishing joke in here for me. I should have got this for Casey so he can put it up on his wall when his bar opens. Every bar has one of these! Rumbler Station. Ya'll ready to rumble? My favorite wooden coaster hands down. Sorry Thunderhead. And so that concludes the theme park part of my TR. Now is the "Kentucky Adventure" part. So if you're here for the coaster pics....you can go back now. It's the end of that world as we know it....it's the end of the.... Hah, no. It was really fun shooting this gun. It's a .22 or something like that for all the gun enthusiasts. I shot the Mtn. Dew can 34 ft.! Mike was impressed. So this is the creek you need to cross to get to the cabin. It's rained alot since last night. Here we are...in the middle of a rising creek... So...my uncle decided it would be fun to drive the two wheel drive Mercury Mariner through it. Until we went to deep and had to go back. Kinda stupid but fun. Only he would do that... Well, we went into the woods and to a friend's private property because there is a cave. Not a touristy stt up, already cleared path guide, lit up cave. We spelunked for about 10 minutes. There were bats, spiders....and....CAVE CRICKETS! One jumped on my head and that was the point to turn around and head out. Farm across the street. A female donkey called a Jenny! They HATE 'yotes and keep the cows safe! DONKEYS SAVE LIVES PEOPLE! They looked abit angry. A group of nice horsies! And a nice country side picture to end this TR. Thanks for reading! I'll try to get a few videos up.

Good news everyone! This trip report has nothing to do with Kings Island! I took two days to go down south with my aunt and uncle to Beech Bend, their cabin, a scary cave with bats and cave crickets, and some random farm! With Jennies! I think it's a female donkey... Anyways! It was about a 3.5 hour drive, leaving at 12:30 to get there before 5....but we forgot about the time zone change and got there at 3PM instead of 4! So to kill some time, we stopped at Godfather's pizza. Eh, I've gotten ahead of myself, I'll tell it with the pictures! Mmm.....B&M....always a nice sight. Hey Jahan! Down here in Kentucky the Frozen Cokes come free with a meal purchase! Gotta love that Southern hospitality... Ah, after about 3 miles of country roads, you drive up this little hill to finally see.... This nice little park with a massive coaster dominating the skyline. Dominating, yup. You like it when I say that? Beech Bend Park's Holiday of lights. Open until January 5th from 5PM to 10PM CST. Mmm...it's taunting me, now. So we pull up to the gates around 4:15 and ask this woman if we can walk around the park until it opens. She said no it opens at 5. But we had a funny little conversation: "Sorry, hun the park doesn't open until 5. But...back in town there's some shops and....TWO WALMARTS!" - Woman "TWO WALMARTS?!" - Me "Yeah! And you can find a discount coupon in either of 'em!" "Ah, cool! How crowded will it be?" "Well, on a week night like this it might be abit crowded. Usually about four or five cars line up!" "Alright...we'll go get that discount." And so I drive back into the town and get lost abit. Find this walmart and there is a ONE dollar off coupon. But I had to buy something to get the coupon. So I spend a dollar on candy and 14 for admission. I get lost again looking for the park and eventually find directions. Mr. Dallas Jones sure loves his 2 miles of lights. If you found Rudolph, email Daniel for a sneak preview of the new C.U.N.T. episode! Christmas isn't about presents or friends and family....it's all about little 5 lbs 8 oz baby Jesus. Alright, I've gone through the 12 days of Christmas (Awesome job on that TPR version, Flipdude!) Random trees, long messages I can't read, and a freaking maze the drive through! Get me outa here!!!! Se we almost drive out of the park because there is no directions or people telling you where to go. Acually, they told us to turn off the headlights.....so then you wouldn't be able to see the little arrows! Well, eventually you park in the race way and a tram waits for people to get in. TOO LONG. So I bolt off in the park. Ah, an empty station! It's been two months without a coaster, and it's great to hear that lift chain runnin'. Mmm...Kentucky Rumbler. But wait, the station is still empty. It's 5:15 and there's no one here! No one in the station. Lift chain running. Lights on, I was even able to get the restaint up! There was really NO ONE there! So I walk out and look around the park for a minute, then come back and magically a ride op is there. Watch the video if I get it up. Me and Mike head for the back seat! Wow, is that me wiping a tear from my eye? Probably, it was a damn good coaster. Hey, check out the wear-whatever-you-want uniform the ride op is wearing! Yup it's dark out. And about 45 degreese. It's one coaster experiance I won't forget! The chick on the right asked about my hat. She called it a 'toboggan' and called me a 'Buckeye' because I'm from Ohio. Oh you Kentuckians. Did I mention it's dark? Hi, I like roller coasters at GCI makes. GIMME MORE WOOD!!!! Beech Bend also has lights, music, and movies around the park. It's quite nice. And also has other coasters. Isn't it good this one is closed? (The Pinafari) Only in Kentucky.... More coming!

Awesome vid! I just rode it yesterday! What a fantastic wooden coaster. Blew away pretty much every other woodie I've rode! Power Surge was down -J "But Shock Drop kicked ass!" Z Oh, and so did this shirt!
