Fuji-Q Highlands Discussion Thread
RIP Psyclone replied to Ed's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yes, I was a Guinness Book enthusiast as a kid in the 80's, and I too remember reading about Moonsault Scramble. I think it was the tallest in the world at the time. -
Are YOU a credit whore?
RIP Psyclone replied to Purplepills's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I get as many as I can get, but don’t mind if I miss a few kiddie coasters. This is why I've never been on the kiddie coasters at SFMM and KBF, for example. Well, I thought they had a maximum height limit. I see now it's only a factor on Goliath Jr. -

So, are traveling carnival/fair coasters considered credits? I admit they would be if they were permanent fixtures. -
Most thrilling drop?

The second line of the title does refer to that. -

Baco is Spanish for Bacchus, the god of wine. Furius is not actually the proper Spanish word for furious, that would be furioso. -

I've been on X a few times and never felt that "stomach in your throat" feeling, Anyone else agree? -

Yeah, the original (I believe) 1st gen Intamin freefall, the aptly named Freefall at SFMM produces a feeling I don't think has been surpassed on any other ride I've been on. Which begs the question "is that it?" -
Or is it even a roller coaster, could it be a drop tower? You tell me! We all want to know!

It's not being paved over to make condos or another cookie-cutter housing tract, but I know you were all joking and really know that's not happening. All of you SFMM haters out there, let me ask you this...do you really think SFMM is worse than undeveloped land, a blank slate? It takes years and years to make a world class amusement park, especially one that emphasizes thrills. Despite its faults, SFMM is not unsalvagable. It can be saved. A few more rides (Maybe a TTD/KK clone, an Intamin plug-n-play woodie) and a little more renovation would take it once again past Cedar Point. Closing Magic Mountain would cause a serious thrill ride deficit in this country's #1 state. Sure, SFMM could be better, but despite its flaws it's far from bad, and DEFINATELY worth saving!

FLIPDUDE's Midwest PTR
RIP Psyclone replied to FLIPDUDE's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yeah, but just because people aren't replying doesn't mean they aren't looking. TRs are the best thing about this site (other than actually being on the trips). -

Oh, but now that you'll be posting your own pics again the people will return! -

Threads don't croak! It's just a lack of updates. I wish Casey would finish his TR, for example. -

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

I understood it. I wonder if there was ever a 6 eyed dragon in the initial plans.
