  1. Looks like PTC-style trains are confirmed. http://silverdollarcity2013.com/details/stagecoach/
  2. For what it is, ocean park is amazing. Definitely need to get out there again
  3. Going off the "Full throttle"... Crashes into a logging company while running from the "Police" ending up in a rapidly-flooding tunnel before reversing out, right as something collapses? Wait, six flags park, nevermind.
  4. Quoting the HELL out of this. They look like modernized versions of the old PTC's like on thunderbolt. I hope the actual trains look close to that render, because that would just be icing on the cake.
  5. I've never banged my head on any of them, despite the whole "Keep your head back" thing, i always lean forward slightly in the restraint, this puts my head mostly outside the OTSR by a small amount, keeping my ears safe and making my defensive riding that much more effective (Pushing myself into the restraint with my legs, essentially stopping my upper body from moving at all) i get beat up more by great inverts/floorless than i do by "bad" standups, simply because i can't brace myself like i do on other standing/sitting rides
  6. This. I would much rather have them with sit down trains. I don't find the standing position to be enjoy able. See, i'm 6'2 and i've -NEVER- found (At least, B&M) Standups uncomfortable, in any seat. I marathoned mantis around 12 times in a row + 5 times in a row at night because it was running well and not one of those rides (In random seats) was actually painful. In my experience, worrying more about getting the restraint closer to your shoulders, rather than the bike seat closer to your junk is the best idea. Granted, the more intense standups (Riddler/mantis/chang) will make my legs get pretty heavy from the forces, but it's not unbearable and it's never painful if you ride like you're supposed to (Standing straight up, restraint on shoulders, head back/leaned forward Though, with B&M's track record recently, if they built another standup, it would basically be a stand-up minetrain, possibly with a loop or 2
  7. Believe it or not i'd actually add mantis to that list During the day and early night pre-final dispatch? Mantis was running -AMAZING- aside from a couple snappy spots (Low hop into MCBR and the entrance of the dive loop) Other than that it was hauling ass and running glass smooth.
  8. https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/zerethon/finaldispatch I'll join in the madness - If i hit my goal as well i'll break out the tail and glow madness for the ERT Session. Anyone from Deep south '09 will know what i mean.
  9. I died laughing when i first saw this, but now, thinking about it's location on the cliff? This would actually be fairly amazing.
  10. Based on NTAG alone (Their only complete circuit build currently running) i'm going to say it will be: Different trains, smaller ride, better construction, etc. Time will tell, but i'll put that bet out there based on the VAST differences in construction style.
  11. I was there Saturday Robb, Blue streak was actually running pretty amazingly well (They've re-tracked the turnaround and the drop of the hill into it Most of the flats in that area were open and the shops/games leading to that area are also open. Your experience may vary, but it was pretty good.
  12. A Double up, double down, into an el toro-style turnaround.....
  13. That rotating elevator lift is amazing looking
  14. Thats just awesome looking. Both Skyrush & SDL are going to be major ridepoints for me this year
  15. Exactly what i'm hoping for, actually. It's themed without really looking out of place. And spin spider is an amazing ride, so this being a "Clone" of it is an awesome thing for the park.
  16. ^ i think with the wide stance of the outside seats both ride positions will be quite intense (More vertical in the center and more lateral to the sides) Either way, this is looking like another great addition to the park
  17. I'm really liking the spiders leg paint scheme on the supports.
  18. Just signed on myself https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/zerethon/CedarPoint -Devious
  19. But scorpions are so cute and evil! that said, the entrance sign makes the logo look a heck of a lot better.
  20. Short answer? Yes. Long answer? Yes, Because it works like a sit-down full-circuit impulse coaster, and would utilize Passes + Transport sections or launch brakes
  21. Nope. None. Question: Does CS Include expansion scenery? (EG: RCT2 *only* or are WW/TT fine?)
  22. Awesome updates guys! Definately going to hit these parks next year after all of the new things are open!
  23. New Trains for rampage? Yeah, definitely going to have to make it a point to be by there this year
  24. A million posts? Man, i feel old now Wait, that's not right, is it...
  25. /\ this But, id' rather have them be super amazing and safe with additional testing, rather than rushing them out and potentially having major issues down the line
