^^What interlocking corkscrews?... ^Haha thanks UPDATE So, what have I been working on might you ask? Well, I've supported up to the last corkscsrew *save for flanges and knuckles* and begun work on toying around with theming, you know, seeing what works...enjoy! View of the newly partially enclosed lift hill, it's still a work in progress. What the lift hill looks like from the first drop This is how close you get to the footpath before the last corkscrew...cool...I know. Damn skippy that's a cool lookin' lift hill Corkscrew from the lift hills naughty, ugly, backside. It's a work of art. You can say it. New supports in the trench...fascinating! What the view looks like going into the lift hill...are you bored yet? I think I may take this giant peni...er I mean drop tower out, it really doesn't look like it belongs, but your opinion is more than welcome! That's it for this totally awesome and radical update, please give me your feedback![/b]

I think we're venturing into the realm of off topicness here haha, buuuut I usually just get mild presents on the first night of Channukah, like all I got was a couple pairs of jeans and a starbucks gift card, and then for Christmas, I'll usually get a few decent things from my parents...of course my birthday is also on the second of the month, so it's a month full of presents! To get back on topic: I like coasters. ...boobs.

Guess who's back (back back)? Back again (again again). Atem's back (back back). Tell a friend (friend friend). Now this looks like a ride from me, so everybody, just follow me, cause we need a little controversy, cause it feels so empty without me. Okay, now that I've proven that I am EXTREMELY white, I must present, my official* return to making those crappy RCT3 rides you know and love. *Denotes: I can (and may) cancel this project at any time due to lack of inspiration and schoolwork etc, I have an extremely hard work schedule, and I'm not sure if I'll be able to keep the inspiration that I have now up, but it's by far the most progress I've made in months. What kind of ride might this be? You ask. Well, it's a Nemesis styled B&M Invert, including the drop of Great Bear. This is sure to be a winner (ok maybe not, all my rides suck) so stay tuned as I continue working on this truly amazing project. And yes, the supports are decent. That piece of track up there looks like it'll provide a nice fly-by for people waiting in line Up the lift hill it goes Money shot...ish...nah never mind, but it corkscrews over the lift hill! That's cool...right? What an awesome lightning-quick transition into the helix that is. It's a small drop, but it hangs off the side of a cliff! It gets ever so close to that footpath By gar, it's loopin dat loop! This drop was totally not stolen or inspired by any inverted coaster with the words "great" and "bear" in it's name...you're smoking. Yeah the drop is okay...BUT LOOK AT THAT MIST!!! Just to give you an overview of what I'm workin with...yeah...nothing too special. So that's it for this amazing update, with any luck, I'll have the slightest bit of time to have fun and not work over winter break, and with any more luck, I'll have time to work on this. Thanks for reading! And 'Chappy' Chanukah to all my fellow brothers of Abraham, you're all putzes!

Most Overrated coaster?

^You found SFMM Goliath rough? That's gotta be the smoothest coaster I've ever been on, much smoother than any B&M I've ridden. Weird. -
I also figured t was an attendance issue from the LA people. It's raining mildly decently here, which is SFMM's biggest attendance area, and I doubt anyone's gonna wanna go outside today (though I'm about to go biking with my friend ). Even if it was 80 degrees and sunny at SFMM today, I doubt anyone would really show up.

Tatsu. I think I've had way too many rides on it, but it's really not that fun for me at all. The lift hill is pretty fun, but in between that and the overbank is pretty much a borefest. The overbank is fun because of the view, but much more forceless than it looks, and the pretzel loop which used to be my favorite thing ever has become pretty uncomfortable. It rattles way too much during the pretzel loop, couple that with like 6 G's of force, and you've got discomfort. I guess I can't say it was a let down by any means the first time I rode it, but now that I've really experienced it a ton, it doesn't hold up nearly as well as other rides. -
I have nothing to say. I just want to post on page 1234.

This ride will definitely be capable of producing an orgiastic scream. -
How did you end up here???

*2 years later* Lol, I love how searching "coasterporn" gets you here...but to be fair, my YT channel is the 2nd thing on google when searching "coasterporn" -
My day was awesome 1st Period: My teacher passed back lab reports, she made a remark that people had copied and I thought "Oh s***" to myself because my friend in our lab group had sent a version of our lab for everyone to modify/use. Luckily, I got an A on it! 2nd Period: I really wasn't looking forward at all to math today since my two friends that I sit with (who actually make it entertaining since the class is really bad) were performing in the pit at our school's musical. However, my teacher used her sway to get us into the musical instead of having math. So I got to see it for a second time, which is good, and miss math. However, this was an "invitational" so you'd only see as much of the musical that they could fit into the period, but... 3rd Period: 3rd period is my jazz band class, however, my teacher is also the pit conductor, so we got to see the second half of the musical and not have to do anything! 4th Period: We had a spanish test, but I'm pretty confident with how I did. And, I got a 56/60 on my AP Euro test, and an A on my AP Euro essay.

The oldest memory I have of TPR was years ago (back when my older brother was a mild coaster nerd) when my brother was browsing some trip report on Parque Espana. I joined the forum when one of my nerd buddies told me to, hell, before that, I didn't know TPR extended beyond the featured articles. -
I have a hot blonde friend who's begging me to let her stay at my house for 3 days since she doesnt want to visit her aunt...too bad my parents wouldn't approve.
