I've met you before in that park last year but this year will be a problem. I'll be there with the first riders (parkcrew) on the 27e but also the 29e en the 1e july. A POV should sure be possible to make you warm up for it -

GCI Intern Website
turbolaaf replied to DragsterForce's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
According to the park they will arrive in Toverland within 2 weeks from now. They are shipped if i'm correct. They also told me that they start testing @ 15th june but regarding to what still must be done i'm a bit afraid that they will be a bit delayed. -

JZ's Ongoing Kings Island Update Thread!
turbolaaf replied to PKI Jizzman's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Great trip Next saturday i'll be finaly in KI all the way from the Netherlands... We need to buy a season pass first so we make sure to get there early. Is there any way to get more out of our day ? We really would love to do all the coasters Can you give us perhaps a list of coasters with what to start to beat some crowds ? And will it be crowded next saturday ? -
Lower Airfare to Europe
turbolaaf replied to carolinacaniac's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Is it really that expensive for you in the USA ? I know we pay € 500 for our next trip to Cleveland in 2 weeks from now. This will result in about $ 650 with the current rates. -

I live next to Eindhoven in a small place called Best. Its with a car something like 30 minutes driving and easy to do. The pics on the official page looks more then good and there should be more straight of the last piece at the end of the week I'm really looking forward to it when the ERT will be with a lot of fans what should result in a great event -
Nice and good pictures geert It seems the park really does had a great changing. That the new kiddy is smooth should be logic since most of the vekoma kiddys ride well. I hope to see trains like this on a slc someday so you wouldn't smash you head against the restaints. Speaking about that... how was the slc this day ? What i do fear is that the halloween would be less then other years since its so open in the park right now. I think i will check that out my self this year including the new parts. Its still a shame they destroyed a great coaster but they had there reasons

Say's the person who's got a maverick logo as an avatar without any © asked from the park. I mean who cares that it's illegal ? We finally got something to see and then you start complaining ? I'm happy with it to see something more then a view from a funcam. I was hoping on a good view these day's of how its running trough the course but CP still did not give us something more.... So if anyone is going over there to makes some views then its fine by me. Thx for the vid -
Kings Island Pre-Opening Day Photo TR
turbolaaf replied to CoastersNSich's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Only 3 weeks to for my first time to PKI. I sure hope they can make our season pass in a quick way so we can enjoy the park fast. Some parks just can't do it in a fast way..... But thx for placing the report ... it makes me wants to get over there more and more each day. -
Favorite Dark Ride
turbolaaf replied to pgathriller's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Fata Morgana at the Efteling still holds my number one. A good number 2 is Soarin at Epcot. Number 3 would be Droomvlucht at the Efteling. Fata Morgana can't be explaned since its a huge ride that takes more then 8 minutes to ride. You just need to see and even smell it since there are some good effects in it that makes you a part of the ride.

Airtime is a sensation based on forces felt by the riders, not actual movement in the seat. I'm fairly certain the goal for most designs of lapbars is to have direct contact with the rider. And i think you need to ride colossos or EGF here in Europe before saying something like that. I'm sure the lapbars and seatbelts are suppose to let you staying in your seat but thats something that will not happen on these two -

What i don't get is that nobody who is speaking about the trains. This will have the first "themed" millenium flyer trains ever and thats also something special. Then also include the great theming in the front that is being build right now and you've got a real special GCI. -

turbolaaf replied to turbolaaf's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Indeed they are going really fast at the moment and new legs are already under construction. Next week there is a new construction tour so more pictures from onsite should be added then. With a bit of luck the drop should be done by then so i'm looking forward to that since i'm also invited. Troy also will get a piece of theming in front and next to it what will be displayed to us next weekend. And GCII also needs to construct the trains soon since its only a few months away now before it opens. -

That its a bit changed makes it more fun and suprising for us to follow Looking forward to the construction of the trains. -

Toverland has no season and is open year round. Next to that troy will open (hopefully) on the end of june.
