^ thanks Bebe's, you both rock my world! Man, do I look excited about that ducky...

China Girl - David Bowie

Superman: Escape from Krypton - SFMM

How on earth is the person in the back row smiling? That seat darn right killed me.

Opa - Mt Olympus

It's true I found the knotts Ducky, bit I'll let the photographic proof show up in the next hysterical update from the Bebes.

Manta at Sea World San Diego yesterday

I'll go with 7 duckies. Great update as well!

Ninja - SFMM

^ as long as you are planning on putting it to use I'd get one since most the discounts on one day tickets only seems to be $10 off. They also have a drop off and/or short term parking lot you can easily park in for free for a couple hours on your visits. My thoughts on Manta was it's the perfect family coaster that can still be fun for everyone. Two launches with just enough kick, some great transitions and even some unexpected pops of Airtime thrown into the mix. None of which was too extreme for the younger riders. I would reccomend riding near the back for a little more force, and also to get a much better view of the show screens before launching. And as many have said, this ride is not big boy friendly, we saw a number of extremely close calls and one walk of shame, so be sure to try the test seat out. Despite these slow downs the crews where running and cranking out all 4 trains in what seemed like only a few seconds apart. So kudos to Sea World and Mack for picking and designing such a fun and efficient ride that the park needed and deserved!

Universal Studios Hollywood today.... Meh.

Kumba - BGT

Cornball Express - Indiana Beach

The ride looks awesome and worth some pain and defensive riding. Personally I can't wait to get up there and take whatever it's going to dish out to my thighs over getting the crap beat out of me on rough rides that just beat you to death with no pay off. Now back to a much better use of my time:

Zola7 - Fuji Q

Kennywood is one of the top parks I must finally visit after moving back east. It just looks insanely fun.

I'll be goin with 5 duckies too.

Most likely it'll be Disney, Knotts, or SeaWorld depending on how days off for June go.

^ What great news Kara, and what fun it'll be to have you at Knotts riding with us! And congrats so far to everyone for an amazing job! I'm very excited to see just how much more we can raise by the 10th!

X-flight - SFGA

^ Unless you are a certain other socal park who likes to delay their new rides... Hopefully I can manage to get down to ride Manta in the next few weeks, as it really looks like a solid fun ride.

Indiana Beach in about 3 hours!

While I am not defending SFMMs operations, I will say I really enjoy GL and the more I ride it the more I like it. While it's a crap shoot as to how good the ride will be, that's part of the fun to me as you really don't know what will happen balanced or not. For the record I've had some meh rides, mostly good 1 flip rides, and 1 amazing 3 flip ride. If you can get in the first dispatched train of the two they load as you won't sit on the breaks but hit them then roll on through like on the Insane videos. Which speaking of Insane videos, a the bulk of them on youtube seem to show it flipping only once, at the end like GL... Just saying...

Alejandro - Lady Gaga

Great report Chad! Reverse Blast just adds another reason why I am looking forward to getting to this park for the first time in just 8 days
