What was the concept behind this and why don't they have it open? I haven't seen this before. -
Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
derek_lentz replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
While riding the Carolina Cobra at Carowinds (a standard Vekoma Boomerang): While we were being pulled up the first lift hill a girl sitting in front of me looked down at the station that we just pulled out of and said "I really don't want to hit that roof" -

Photo TR: 3rd Times a Charm
derek_lentz replied to jenseib's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Very nice trip report. I am really impressed with how many pictures you managed to get. When i took my son to WDW this past september, I ended up holding him so much that I thought my name was changed to "Carry Me." It seems like the only pictures I got to take where while I was sitting down in a restaurant or on a train. How many photopass pictures did you end up with? -

Are the clues in order or are they mixed up randomly? -

I am offended that this trip report made me laugh out loud at work. I am looking foward to more. -
Photo TR: Cheetah Hunt Media Hard Hat Tour
derek_lentz replied to jedimaster1227's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
I'm not sure of your definition of "regular basis", but keep in mind cheetahs practically kill themselves during a hunt as the strain on their body greater increases their body temperature. Granted this cheetah run will be shorter than a 30-60 secnd hunt. So don't expect to see cheetah's racing around the clock. I didn't know that about cheetah's, but I would just be interested to see the cheetah "appear" to race the coaster. In the original post he said that the mechanism would give them a reason to run. How often do they need to run? -
Suprising Soakings
derek_lentz replied to Kingsislandfreak's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have two that both happened at WDW. The first was on Splash Mountain. I had ridden it once earlier that day and had barely gotten wet. I then rode it again right before the park closed and barely got wet. After the fireworks, they were having extra magic hours so I decided to ride it one more time since there was no line. After the major drop, I was dry, but then I was hit from the water canon after the turn and I was absolutely drenched. The next day we were at the AK. For a half hour we saw people coming off of Kali River Rapids and they were barely wet. We got in line and rode. At the top of the first hill, the geyser shooting straight up completely soaked us. There was not one dry spot on our clothes. We could not figure out how people were getting off of that ride so dry. It was amazing. -

I love the concept of having the actual cheetah race the trains. That sounds really cool if it would work on a regular basis.
