Hey Parktrips how is the appearance of Goliath in the midway? Meaning are there giant supports and footers right in the middle of the midway (like it was plopped down like RCT) or are they off to the side and supported around the midway? Very nice pics by the way...I hope I can ride it this year JEFF

I really like that pic of batman's 0 G roll (except for the bird dung on the track) looks like ya'll had fun, Riddler looks nice did it recently receive new paint? JEFF

A big collectible among us...so just curious Sweatshirts and T-shirts included I own 47 My Wife keeps nagging me to get rid of some and she even put my Drachen Fire T-shirt in the garbage cause it had a hole in it....almost got Divorced that night So the new rule is Stay outta my Closet!!!! EDIT: Crap! I had an option for 100+ but forgot to add it JEFF

option 2 (ride footage=POVs) JEFF

Yea...I did a test Disc and made a DVD of my music videos and it didnt look too bad but it wasnt really high quality (but I have better quality ones on my computer that are over 30 megs)....as I have no way to edit video except for Windows movie maker. the POV footage I can rip straight from the Camcorder to DVD so the Quality would be much Better. JEFF

Curious to see because of the mixed signals I get about these videos on here so this should settle this (kinda ) Side question-- Robb has been hinting at me to do an affiliate DVD with my POVs and such, Would this interest you guys or are my Videos on the Video board good enough, I do not want to spend the time making a DVD if nobody really feels a need for it with all of them available on that forum. post here or PM me if you would like a DVD available....it will not be nearly as fancy as Robb's or Don's mostly just straight footage (w/music) on DVD. All opinions welcome JEFF

I think that most people are too lazy...there are alot of people who read or download things but never say anything. also Elissa has a good point..if you cover Everything...what is there to ask or comment on? I too wonder the same thing about my videos..like the 6 Flags america one I did last week, I thought it was great and I worked hard on it and so far it has been downloaded over 100 times but nobody said anything about it. and I post IMO a not so good POV and it gets a bunch of responses right away. I honestly make the videos and take pics just for me...I like them and I enjoy watching them and if just one person saves it and keeps it then that is great..happy they liked it too, but I do not spend too much time worrying about it. JEFF

I have not ridden the new V2 but I think it looks cool (not as fast) the inclined heartline looks sweet especially backwards..does anybody like the new V2 better? JEFF

WOW 35 degrees in march in L.A.?? It was 90 degrees here in Richmond VA and of course no parks are open looks like ya'll had a arctic blast. how were the lines? JEFF

Steel- Easily Millennium Force Wood- Probably Cyclops in the back OMFG! Other-Drop Zone at PKD JEFF

you can have a video in avi format...it just needs to be zipped to upload it. If you have Windows xp you can convert AVI to wmv in Windows movie maker. JEFF

I chose Nitro but If MF was on there that would have got my vote. I have not ridden Nitro since 2001 and when I rode it did have ejector air more so than Apollo but Nitro's layout is much better IMO JEFF

/\ Thank you...now I know I am not crazy JEFF

I would have voted for the inclined loop Mantis' and Chang's are awesome.....riddler's isnt JEFF

El Toro JEFF

^ I agree with you 100% I hate parents that let their kids boss them around. JEFF

It is the same.....but a TURBO COASTER!!!! JEFF

people need to lighten up...I just try to post and have fun talking about coasters. I don't see why that is hard for people to understand....whatever, I think I have made my point many times over. People take things too seriously sometimes..... But I see your point teddymonster JEFF

BUSCH had the concept drawings and gave them to Arrow and said we want somethng like this you are confusing plans with concept drawings...very different things. EDIT: you still are not understanding, I AM AGREEING with you that they did not design it and they certainly did not build it, they (Arrow) looked at a concept SKETCH and said we can make something similar (Structure, Cobra roll) They tried and failed, once again B&M did NOT design it. JEFF

Finally vertical construction!!!! http://www1.paramountparks.com/kingsdominion/News/photo_gallery.cfm?item_id=318 JEFF

Why does no one understand?!??! geez..it is JUST FOR FUN and to get people to talk about the pros and cons of these rides...the poll is there for fun...just to see. JEFF

You just made no sense at all, You are telling me BUSCH would not have access to THEIR own Coaster's Concept drawing years in advance?????? You do understand that a concept drawing is the VERY first thing done many years before a coaster opens....right??? They might not even know about their own involvment why would they have to know at all and I do not think they would say...yea!! we had a big hand in that monster failure of a roller coaster we helped design...there are no official ties to B&M...of course they are gonna say "thats funny, never heard of it" JEFF

Well with 356+ hits so far, obviously many people do not think its useless...look how many people are talking about these coasters and isnt that what you came here to do? I understand this is not a ABSOLUTE answer to the best. It is just something done for fun. and to compare these rides JEFF

Well then that settles it...does not get any more offical than that The dippin dots guy just called Claude's cell and asked him and he said the same thing. WOW Bottom line- everyone has their opinion on the subject and we will just leave it at that NOBODY knows for sure except the people at Arrow. (all Arrow had to do was look at a concept drawing of Kumba) JEFF

No, I do not think they are bad at all, I loved Shockwave, what a ride...so sad to see it go....easily the best of the 3 6 flags Arrow mega loopers People just do not know how to ride certain rides or they are not used to the types of forces a good Arrow will give you JEFF
