Hopefully this one doesn't become a "news" story like the Tigger one. -
Six Flags vs. Cedar Fair
hemmy replied to RIP Psyclone's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I agree while small, Busch is my favorite "chain" While individually I would rather go to a park like Cedar Point over either Busch park (or Seaworld) as a whole other than CP Cedar Fair has nothing that great. Cedar Point, Valleyfair, and Worlds of Fun are my top 3 Cedar Fair Parks. Great Adventure, SFOG, SFOT are my top 3 Six Flags Parks And of those six I would rank them 1. CP 2. SFGADV 3. SFOG 4. Valleyfair 5. SFOT 6. WOF So According to that logic, Six Flags would seem to be my choice. However, I can't really make a decision I think they are equal. -

Man wish I could have made it there on my school trip overseas. Went to Thorpe and Alton Towers but missed out on BPPB Looks really close quarters. -

Best And Worst Things Ever
hemmy replied to Manny In England's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Worst: Brazilian tour groups at the Florida parks who cut in line in masses and don't listen to anything you have to say (whether or not they know English doesn't matter) -
Floorless Coasters: Just a gimmick?
hemmy replied to RIP Psyclone's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Wow, I feel the absolute opposite. Floorless no doubt made rides like Sheikra better. Also, standup IS a gimmick because there are no really good stand up coasters due to many factors. Their freedom in element design is limited, and it adds nothing to the ride other than tired feet. No airtime, just crotch pain. -
Worlds of Fun Expansion
hemmy replied to Hobbesx2's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Kids today may know snoopy but they don't like him The only exposure is from the Peanuts comics or the Charlie Brown specials on certain holidays. Not to mention the whole Peanuts show was never funny. Personally, I think Spongebob is hilarious and I am 19. -
Dudley Do Right's Ripsaw Falls
hemmy replied to sixflagsguy5's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think the only real change made to the ride was making the head chopper after the final drop higher to prevent injury. Also, I have been to IOA many times, once including opening year and once this summer and I believe the ride has remained the same. As far as classifying it as a water coaster I would not because not a whole lot of it is locked in the track. -
2007 Golden Tickets Announced
hemmy replied to CoasterFanatic's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Same, using them slows the regular Qs down a ton I just don't care about theming in my parks much, perhaps that is why Cedar Point is my #1 park. -
Maverick - Is it worth the wait?
hemmy replied to jason10's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I would wait 2 hours any day for it...in fact I did (twice) Best ride at Cedar Point and best ride I have been on. Speed, airtime, inversions, sharp turns, launches, and a little bit of water Every ride seems like that to me. EVERY ride. My question is if you were on a Cedar Point trip would you not even ride Maverick once just because it had a long line??? I admit I was skeptical at first when I seen it had a 2 hour wait spilling into the midway because I truly underestimated Mavericks "fun" level. -
Missed Credits: Coasters you COULD have...
hemmy replied to RIP Psyclone's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I classify Manhattan Express as a must ride because it makes you better appreciate other rides. -

I haven't been to GADV since El Toro was built I am very sad inside. -

According to the computer animation there are trims on the upward side of the 3 hills after the turn around. They are hard to notice but they are there. -
UFAlien's Cedar Point TR!
hemmy replied to UFAlien's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
MANTIS Wow! This was really good. It was my first stand-up, but honestly most of the time it doesn't feel any different than a normal coaster. Still, the layout was good fun and it was pretty forceful, even if the ending was rough. 7.5/10 -
Amazing shots, even the Maverick one with glare

Something new at Canada's Wonderland for 2008

But it is still the same amount of time for everyone, because they wont announce it secretly earlier to people in different time zones. -

The beginning of the hulk alone is better than both dueling dragons. But DD never has a long line -

Do they allow shovels in Six Flags these days? -
