I've never seen the ride myself, but I remember reading about these in my newbie enthusiast days. From what I've seen, the ride looked like a ghetto swing where the seats would connect. The operator would yell "KICK BOOTY" or something similar and the person in back would have to "kick" the person in front. While the ride was spinning, the riders had to reconnect with each other and once everybody was connected. Then the operator would stop the ride, yell KICK BOOTY again and then restart it on a faster cycle. The faster the cycle, the more difficult it was to connect the seats back together. I don't think they're still around and I believe that the ride name was also spelled Kickbootie.

^ You'd think that Robb would just notify Elissa about using their wedding photos to promote a limo service... And I'd think that if they were a TPR member, they'd probably notify Elissa firsthand before posting her pic on their website.. My guess is that the limo company was looking for a stock wedding pic and it just happened to be Elissa.

^ Does the voice sound like Robb's? You should watch his video and the SF video to compare. Apparently Gardaland used TPR footage in their new ride voting contest... I tried accessing the video through YouTube, but it appears to have been privatized. - On another note, I noticed that the TPR Maverick POV looks very similar to the official CP POV.

Woah... The structure looks very eye-catching! Everything looks so close together and all those colors really make for a stunning play structure... I really can't wait for the finished product! -
The Sunset Resort [RCT2]
netdvn replied to rctfan123's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
I haved one major issue.. There're so many coasters in the park I find it hard to keep track of all of them. Can you provide an overview of all your coasters in your next update? You seem to cover all the coasters once or twice and then forget about them in later updates... But other than that, excellent job. I wish I was as skilled at RCT as you are... I seem to draw parks better than I can make them in RCT2. -
Six Flags Magic Mountain Terminator Salvation: The Ride
netdvn replied to robbalvey's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Now that I've seen the trains again, I DO have to admit that the front of the train doesn't really seem right. I think they should've painted the fronts a silver color so it doesn't look like one of those car floormats or even a rusty color. And maybe they should've sharpened the edges a little bit and probably added bolts to make it look a bit more mechanical... But I still love the trains either way. -
Fireball - Happy Valley Shanghai, China
netdvn replied to Airtime&Gravity's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Here's my opinion... Judging by past reviews of GCI's (I've never been on one myself so I can't officially judge) they have been very positive. Terminator is no exeption. The ride looks amazingly fun and the huge structure makes this ride look like the American equivalent of Fireball. From what I've heard, Prowler my be the new Beast. There's only so much B&M will do with their hypers unfortunately. I don't think they will try any new, twisty elements on any of their hypers anytime soon. Diamondback looks awesome and reviews have been fairly positive. Manta has an amazing theme! I think that even without the theme it could be an awesome coaster. HR3 looks like Fireball's steel equivalent. Like I said before, Quassy's coaster is more of a Meteor-style woodie, not a Voyage/Hades/RF2 style one. Overall I love the way Fireball looks and I really can't wait to see the rest of the park when it opens. -

Fireball - Happy Valley Shanghai, China
netdvn replied to Airtime&Gravity's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Its pretty much an unknown coaster because its been overshadowed by bigger coasters this year... http://thegravitygroup.com/gravitycast/top-secret/#comments Taken straight from their mouths. -

^ What about Terminator Salivation? Prowler? LSHoF? Manta? HR3? Not to mention Quassy's getting a Meteor-sized GG woodie that looks pretty good. Nowhere near Voyage or Fireball-sized, but still a fun-looking coaster. All those coasters look very good to me and they're all in US parks. -

^ Three WEEKS ??? Where are you trading the brochures from? Then again, it takes around five days for brochures to arrive from Illinois for me using cheap snail mail but still! -

At the rate they're building this thing, I wouldn't be surprised to see SFMM adding the theming and putting the trains on the track by next week. -

Aww man, we still have two coupons left over from yesterday and we were thinking about heading back down to KFC to get more grilled chickent. Oh well, it didn't taste as good as the fried chicken anyway.

The Brochure/Map Trade Topic
netdvn replied to Reality15's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Calling all golf fans!!! The LPGA is taking place literally in my backyard and my parents just picked up two LPGA tournament maps for anyone who's interested! It features a map of all the courses and a list of all the professional golfers that are playing. Brochures: BGW 2009 x11 Maps: LPGA Tournament Map x2 (not theme park related but pretty cool nevertheless) Extra: BGW Virginia Resident Fun Card 2008 BGW Event Brochures 2009 x2 If you're interested in this kind of thing and you want a piece of the LPGA, just drop me a PM. -

Credit Question?
netdvn replied to Speeddeamon128's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ I think it was only a debate simply because CP fanboys didn't want SFMM to have more coasters, nor did they want to admit that SFMM technically had the world's first Strata-coaster. Dan - Does that mean that Gemini and Colossus are two credits too? -
