Photo TR dollywood & the rarely seen Splash Country! 06/
FlyingScooter replied to jarmor's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
great TR Jarmor. It's been two years since I was at Dollywood. I can't wait to go next year. -
Man, that park can't get a break. Did the park ever get the water slides up yet? I was in Maryland all last week and only heard about this today. glad no one was hurt. I first saw it in the Meadville trib. What animals is that one person talking about? I thought the animal rights people blocked them on animals. Call the BlueStreak what you will, but a 'death trap' is far from the truth on that one. GP hacks... We may be going to CLP this weekend.

I've been to the park at least 40-50 times and I've never seen any sparks from the BlueStreak. However, most of the times i've been there, the humidity was horrendous, which could prohibit the sparking. The Bug sparked quite a bit, largely due to the maintenance people never oiling the track. Did they get the waterslides running again?

Big Dipper at Chippewa Lake Park.
FlyingScooter replied to verticalzero's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
We went by the entrance about two winters ago. Took a couple of pics, which i'll upload later. Couldn't see the Bug through all the over growth. We didn't venture into the gapping hole in the fence because there were a few too many locals that didn't look happy. It just amazes me that they did nothing with the land. -

http://www.forgottenoh.com/Chippewa/coasters.html http://illicitohio.com/SBNO/menu.html It wasn't rough or very tall, but it was a nice coaster. The Bug is still up at Chippewa and is rotting. -

Flyingscooters. Favorite ride.

YES. Good question. I'd say: The daffodils look lovely today-hey-hey-ayyy. Wally, if you get banned, look at the company you'd be in. OJ Simpon: banned for life from the pro football hall of fame. Pete rose: banned for life because of gambling. Milli Vanilli, banned for life from the rock and roll hall of fame. uhg, considering the last one, maybe being banned isn't so hot.

Toboggan?!?!?!?!?!?! NO, DON'T DO IT! It hurts a bit. However, recomend it to your friends.

Waffles???
FlyingScooter replied to USRoadTripper's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Home made waffles are the best! A Week without waffles if like a week without sunshine. -

^You sure? I thought it was going to happen on SEpt 9th 2009. BUT TO-NIGHT I'M GONNA PARTY LIKE IT'S 19-99! -
Trim brakes on the first descent of any coaster. (Have seen this on Mean Streak) It's like: Yeah, let's build a really tall woodie and to keep it from breaking itself apart, we'll just install trims down the first hill. And a childs voice from the background says: Why don't you just make the first hill shorter then? Engineer: Stupid idea, kid. How you gonna break records that way?

^there you go! The Tube will be a replica of a giant SideWinder snake that, Maverick (the Legend of the West) will slay as the coaster does its thing. <<>>>> -

Now CF completely controls Ohio. Between CP, GL and PKI, that's a heap of coasters and real estate. -

Cedar Point
FlyingScooter replied to HCOSurfer90's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Along with the above rides mentioned, i'd add Troika to the list. CP is the only park in the US i know of that has that ride. It's better at night. i agree with doing TTD and MF first.
