Rode DDD about 10 times today. It was awesome. Good airtime on the first drop and the dive loop is pretty intense on the right side seats. It's butter smooth and very very quite... lol. The lap bars on a Euro Fighter are a welcome treat with lots of open air and freedom of movement. Made for one hell of a good barrel roll at the end with lots of hang time! Good amounts of thememing as well (at least for six flags) Great Ride!!! and a great addition to the park.

Why would you think this? This wasn't the case on either Behemoth or Diamonback so what makes you think that out of the blue Cedar Fair is going to brake happy with this one? --Robb Your joking right? Behemoth has 3 trims on 3 out of the 4 hills between the hammerhead and MCBR. And when I went on it you could tell they were working. Granted Diamondback only has one trim and haven't got to ride it so I cant compare it. My point is this with the exception of Hollywood Dream every B&M mega coaster has had at least one trim throughout the course why would this one be any different. And imo the layout of Intimidater and Behemoth are similar in some respects and i just see at least 2 or 3 trims on the camel back hills after the turn around. -

The ride looks very impressive. That second hill really does look interesting. but I think a really tight helix like on SFoG's Goliath or Nitro would make it even better, instead of that rather lazy looking helix Now I didn't see any in the video but I'm willing to bet CF will install trims all over the ride and ruin it. But its a much needed addition to the park and now I will have to make the trek to this park -
Nice its been awhile since I have been to the world of coke. It looks alot nicer now. Going to SFOG tomorrow?

Track Spottings!

My thoughts.. A compact but very forceful floor less B&M to fill the void where Deja Vu once stood over and towards the Ninja, at SFOG!!! A park with 5 B&M's??? Sounds amazing -
^ Nah dude those pics look sick!!! Lets see more

Your Park "To Do List"
wood6291jp replied to DBru's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Six Flags Over Georgia ] Add at least one new high capacity flat ride since the removal of deja vu ] Superman and Georgia Cyclone are the only ones that need new paint if i recall correct ] Ease up on the brakes on the GASM ] Add the KumbaK Coasters trains to the Ninja.. they look sick! ] Keep Acrophobia open a lot more thought the year ] Bring back the Looping Starship and relocate it to free falls old area ] Higher capacity trams for parking lot ] And FTW add a Gravity Group, LLC hybrid that uses the terrain and features around the carrousel and the Wheelie down and around the go karts and Deja Vu's area and back.... my crazy thoughts -
What is your favorite Stand Up coaster?

The Georgia Scorcher is the best imo. A very tight complex layout that proves forceful and pops of air are nice too -

Yeah its big and all, but it looks so weak with all those trims.. That and it was creeping over those hills.... SFOG Goliath is sooo much better of a ride imo. -

The Pics of SFOG from the seventies were sweet i could only imagine... the longest time ago i can think of is back before Batman and before the promenade was built, all while mind bender was still brown. The watersides where the scorcher is now is a welcome change tho. -

There are to many Trim brakes on the ride and knowing Cedar Fair they will use um too -

^ Well another ride like Raging Bull would be loved instead of another out and back... at least Goliath at SFOG has an interesting layout unlike La Ronda's Goliath which this ride is totally aimed at. And the logo? Is it me or does that design look way to familiar And not a fan of the trains at all....
