The Restraint Discussion Thread

I second the TOGO stand-up restraints as the worst. Look at them. They just SCREAM epic fail. Very uncomfortable indeed. -

^ I absolutely agree 100% percent. You better have a good logo ready! -

Carowinds Discussion Thread

^ I'm not going to try and be a fanboy and campaign for this to be launched, because in all honesty, I'd rather this be lifted than launched. That's just what I think is going to happen. I have a reason to believe it won't be launched, and I have a reason to believe it will. But lets not compare theming of two different companies. You are trying to say that Cedar Fair is going to theme the same way Europa Park Management did. I'm sure they will have completely different methods of portraying the race theme. Sorry if this post makes no sense, I'm tired and rambling... -

B&M make a racer?! I don't think so! Maybe, but I highly, highly doubt we will have two, side-by-side, racing B&M hypers at the park next year. My bets are on a launcher. That, I think would be the most logical thing for this to be, even with B&M as the manufacturerer. Launching it would be the thing this coaster needs to live up to the race theme. -

The hotel-looking building is very impressive. But, overall, this park is incredible. -
^ Yes, they are re-tracking/rebuilding TG for the entire 2010 season, and it opens again in 2011. Hopefully the renovations are worth the wait. But my vote goes to Mean Streak. Case closed.

What is it about Kingda Ka?

^ It's because KK has OTSR's and TTD has lapbars. Also, people say KK has a bit of rattle. -

^ Great rendition as always, John. However, following yesterday's events, I doubt this coaster will be called anything other than... 'Intimidator'. -

I think Afterburn takes the cake, and not because Carowinds is my home park. -
The Restraint Discussion Thread

I have to disagree with you. Intamin OSTRs rape perfectly good rides. Stormrunner, Fahrenheit, and Maverick could be so much more enjoyable if there was nothing killing your thighs or side of your head/neck. I have said this before but it needs repeating, Intamin is better than this. For me personally, I get my neck bashed and my thighs killed on every ride that has this type of restraint. Heck the restraints are the reason that I don't like Maverick that much. Does anyone else feel the same way I do? No. Intamin OTSR's are among the most comfortable, by far. -

The second DL looks better and smoother, getting closer to the way a pre-fab should be. But I agree with the poster above me: some of the turns in the ride look almost painful, and the transitions need work, but I think this could rank among the best of them!
