  2. One of the ride ops on a "Ring of Fire" ride at my local fair was checking the cage locks while the ride was moving (not at full speed, but still quite fast). At the same fair, this year, all the operators (well, at least 2) on the Fun Slide were high.... never thought that was safe.
  3. ^ That is a REALLY cool shout out to Schwarzkopf. Also, glad they got the Dying Trapeze thing sorted out! I got confused
  4. I love everything about it! So excited! It's about time we get a new major thrill coaster!
  5. I just set my alarm for 1:55 to wake up and check if they are revealing it at 2 like the puzzle pieces Tomorrow's a big day, ladies and gentlemen....
  6. I have never been so excited for a new addition my entire life! Bring on Thursday!
  7. The yellow and black triangle is interesting..... I wonder what it could be....
  8. I couldn't agree more. It's just one of those rides at Great America that I don't mind skipping. Once you've ridden it, you've ridden it. Not much else it does and it just feels very "meh" after you've ridden it X amount of times. Although I have to say, when I do ride it, I go for the back rather than the front, just for the airtime on the first hill. I actually disagree as far as "meh" goes. While, yes, it is no where near a top 10 coaster, or a force machine, it's just so dang fun. It's one of those coasters that you just can't help smiling and laughing the entire way through. No bumps, shaking, just a good smooth ride. I love it
  9. Looks like it is the end of "world".... maybe it's some sort or record? Not anything major for sure, but maybe tallest/fastest of it's type in the world?
  10. Six Flags Great America within the next two weeks, maybe Valleyfair/MOA sometime in September.
  11. Just booked our flights.. you BETTER be right! @Steve...best comment ever. I cannot guarantee the realness of said dinosaurs.... you could check out the freaky giant bugs CP has if you want some weird nature and the dinosaurs are just scams.
  12. I'm pretty sure they are announcing it early because the CP one will have REAL LIVE dinosaurs!
  13. The former Kiddieland in Melrose Park has a soft spot in my heart. Very nice collection and thrilling rides, and a fun log flume! Glad Little Dipper is at SFGAm now.
  14. While it doesn't look like "B&M I305", it still looks incredible to me. At least Wonderland is getting a new ride, let alone A B&M GIGA! Better than no rides at all, like Michigan's Adventure. Can't wait to try it sometime! Griffin
  15. I'm VERY impressed by that photo! Can't wait til tomorrow morning!
  16. Bahhhh I had so much fun today Jo! Thanks for going! Eagle backwards today was amazing. The airtime in the rear of the train (what would be the front row if it was facing forward) is unbelievable while backwards. I also picked up a $13 Iron Wolf blueprint. All IW merchandise is half off, so stock up everyone!
  17. I've always liked that name, and if it turns out to be true I can't complain!
  18. Eagle Blue was running backwards yesterday, and it was such a surprising ride! It wasn't rough at all to me. There is nothing like it that I have been on. The first drop is so funky going backwards!
  19. Glad I got to see them before they were removed! Wildebeest was awesome, but this one with the backwards/possible spinning could be better! Hopefully I can go back to the park to check it out!
  20. This looks awesome! A great addition to Hershey's stellar collection. Hopefully I can go ride it next year!
  21. I never rode Eagle backwards during it's first run (heck, I never went to the park during it's first run!), so this excites me! Can't wait to try it!
