What is your favorite Roller Coaster?
Goliath513 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
From my SFMM trip earlier this year. -Sam -
Shivering Timbers fall to mediocrity
Goliath513 replied to N'at Man's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
What's wrong with Ghostrider? I rode it last year and couldn't get enough of it. Weather conditions, neglect of maintenance, or modifications. -Sam -
I have some criticism/tips that could help you. Pros: *Good dispersion of the trees *You seem to have a good start to the midway *Log Flume (always a plus since so many are disappearing in parks these days) Cons: *Your buildings/stations are too boxy. Try adding more detail. *Station on shuttle loop is too low. Raise it up about 10 ft. *The flames by the corkscrew coaster look bad. Try to integrate them with other theming so they don't look so random. Hope this helps! 8) -Sam

I think I've seen enough Firehawk photos to last a lifetime. Other than that, looks nice what you have so far. -Sam -
B&M vs Intamin
Goliath513 replied to alpengeistdude321's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Im going with B&M because of the coasters I've ridden, B&Ms have given me a more enjoyable ride. Also, B&M rides have less downtime than the average Intamin. -
Valley Splash Water Park
Goliath513 replied to music11's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Because to make the slides working, he would have to sacrifice quality of appearance. The goal is to make it look realistic despite the fact how RCT is so limited. I am working with him on various parks for the RCPro Summer Showdown gaming competition where the whole point is to build an elegant park and the guests cannot even come in. The park is not finished and he probably won't post an update for a while. -Sam -
Amazing water slides
Goliath513 replied to FLIPDUDE's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Dude, these water slides are amazing! My favorite water park is Hyland Hills Waterworld in Denver, CO. I highly recommend everyone go there. All of their slides are great. The freefall speed slides are amazing, and their bowl slides are too. But their all time best is the underground, heavily themed "Voyage to the Center of the Earth" - truly an amazing experience! They also have an underground Egyptian river run, but it's not as fun as VttCotE. I'm going there in a week from today!!!! Rumor has it they are adding yet another water slide this year, but I have yet to confirm that. And to think I used to be afraid of large water slides. Now I can't get enough of them! -Sam -
What are your TOP TEN COASTERS
Goliath513 replied to ddaver177's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Keep in mind I have not been to any parks east of Denver yet. 1. Goliath - SFMM 2. Tatsu - SFMM 3. Silver Bullet - KBF 4. Ghostrider - KBF 5. Medusa - SFDK 6. X - SFMM 7. Xcelerator - KBF 8. Riddler's Revenge - SFMM 9. Colossus - SFMM 10. California Screamin - DLR -
Nice pictures and great photo TR. Nice water park photos. I don't know why you got a headache on Boomerang since I just rode SFDK's in the back and it was smoother than normal. The log ride appears to be pretty decent. -Sam

Rye Playland Discussion Thread
Goliath513 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Oh god not another accident. Seriously, I can't believe the ride ops were careless enough to not check the seat belts before dispatching the ride. -
SFNO/Jazzland Discussion Thread
Goliath513 replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ Can you post some of it here for the rest of us? SF should have just got rid of SFNO instead of SFAW. -
www.sixflags.com Seriously, the first site dedicated to just coasters for me was either www.coasterforce.com or www.rcdb.com back in 2001.

Game: When was the last time you...
Goliath513 replied to onewheeled999's topic in Random, Random, Random
Yesterday. I first saw Live Free or Die Hard, then at home I watched Blazing Saddles. When was the last time you left the country? -
Waterparks Discussion
Goliath513 replied to Homer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ I assume this is for a brand new water park like when SFGAm opened HH in 2005. Well here is what I think would go good. Body Speed Slides Wave Pool Lazy River Several family slides Tube slide complex Kid's Area (maybe) Bowl Slide Flowrider That should be good. I will be going to Hyland Hills Waterworld in Denver next week! -Sam -
Photoless Magic Mountain Trip Report
Goliath513 replied to kidaftersunset's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Ouch about your camera man. Was it a nice one of one of those old POS ones? I nearly lost my phone on X. I could feel it slipping out of my pocket so I had to hold my hand over it for the whole ride. But, I guess I can't complain since I didn't actually loose anything on that ride. They don't have the best system set up for storing loose articles like other rides do. I just leave my loose articles off to the side despite the risk of them being stolen. I lost my sunglasses at SFDK the other day, but that's nowhere near as valuable as a camera. -
Rush Mania [RCT2]
Goliath513 replied to Goliath513's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
^ Uh the park already has a S&S Power tower, and an Arrow Corkscrew coaster. A screamin swing would be nice. Does anyone else have any thoughts?
