I talk to everyone! I made a few friends from medusa's line at GADV. I even saw them another day, but if they are screaming BE EMO!!!, don't becuase my friend said to him "your mother" and he chased us to kingda ka and sat behind us on opening day 06' and kept spitting on us and it was nasty. But usually, I socialize with park go'ers and usually get hugs..becuase im just so cute (I love being 12)...

I can put my feet over my head and then at the same time walk with my hands. No Joke. Also, I can walk a 600ft on my hands. I tried, and I did succeed. Hmm, I can also do a backtuck (backflip) with no hands on the ground.

New England Area Fairs
coastakid replied to ECZenith's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The Danbury City Fair. it runs from now till' July 8. It has a Huss Topspin which flipped 24 times. No joke. Also a KMG Fireball and a Mack Music Express. Also a Thunderbolt ride similar to the Music Express but the cars swing. They also have a Remix, which is an orbitor ride without the floor. They have a Darton Cliff Hanger, like a flying Paratrooper, which is really fun. Also a Wave Swinger(which ran very fast and long i started to feel sick after about the 50th time around), and a Gigantic Ferris Wheel, as well as a large Bumper Car ride. I had a really good time and the only two rides that are $5 are Fireball ,Giant Wheel, and Toppsin, (which had very very long cycles). Wave Swinger was 4$ as well as Music Express, Thunder Bolt, Remix,and the Bumper Cars (which also ran long).The Cliff Hanger was 3$ and some of the smaller kiddie rides were 2$, and there were alot of them! -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
coastakid replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I just remebered something! On a show I watched on National Geographic called Supercoasters, they talked abou how modern day LIMS can catapult tons of lbs to up to 200mph in less that 2 seconds. They used a catch car, but they catch car was the part being attracted and repelled by the lims, not the car itself. They also have a testing ground in NJ. Maybe this helped, in a way..?? -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
coastakid replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I was just thinking about sidewindin'...and I realized what if they aren't talking about something like looping. What if they are talking about they mean side..like side by side and a winding track? That just punched me right in the head..hehe...and sorry if someone said something like this earlier, but I don't have time to read other posts. -
Hey guys I'm new!! (SFGAdv Questions)
coastakid replied to n00b's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I just Have something to comment about the Roller Coasters at GADV.. I have been a theme park enthusiast since I was about 5 years old. I am now 12, but I didn't face my true fear of coasters until I was about 9 - 10. Height and speed isn't what bothers most people on roller coaster like Kingda Ka, or Nitro. Its the intimidation of looking at the drop, and hearing the riders screming. I have been on all roller coasters at GADV including Kingda Ka (the 128mph and 456ft tall 1) which is now my favorite coaster. It puzzles me to think of how other people see roller coasters. I see them as pure excitement and fun. Some people (suprisingly) see them as death traps. That is all in their imaginations. Like other members said before, it is about 145,209x safer to be on a roller coaster than in a car. (I did a project on it last year). The only thing that freaks me out sometimes, is on Kingda Ka waiting to launch. When the Horn Goes off, it launches 5 seconds after the horn. So if you decide to face any fears. Just remeber my post on Themeparkreview. Also, Ride it for me! please it is an amazing experience.! -

This is my first completed wooden coaster. I haven't had the game for more than 2 months, (im obsessed though) so any pointers would be very helpful....Thank you. It is a wooden Plug & Play intamin Hyper Coaster. It has a very steep drop and an immelman turn/drop that has some very high Gs. It is also the 1st wooden coaster with an overbank turn, 2 in total. This is also my first coaster "ok" enough to post. El Monstre.nltrack El Monstre

My Dad, two friends and I headed over to SFNE today. All I can say is that it was amazing as ever. Read on! It's Kind of long We decided to head over to Tomahawk through the little gap between Mainstreet and Crack Axle Canyon. It was running very nicely. The only bad part is that when it was over, the ostrs released very fast, and bounced off the top, and hit me on the head very hard as I was standing up. After, we decided to head to Pandemonium. We waited about 10 minutes. Great ride, and alot of spinning. 8/10 After a disappointing last trip with Catapult and it being broken the whole time I was there, I finally had the chance to ride. I headed over with one of my friends, (the other one chickened out) We waited for the left side. We thaught we were going to be the only ones on that side, but that changed and about 8 more people came onto our side. two seats were roped off on the left side. The bars, (not shoulder bars) are very tight. I thaught that they were going to kill me! It was a great ride and definetley a re-ride. 10/10 After Catapult, all of us decided to ride Cyclone, because I wanted to see f it was any smoother than last season. It did seem quite a bit smoother, but I did sit in the second seat this time so...I'm not sure about other seats. The front of the train surely doesen't have any airtime. It was somewhat a dissapointment. 6/10 After before we boarded the Sky Ride, I decided to catch a ride on Time Warp, since I haven't ridden in quite some time. It was definetley a good ride. It surprised me to see how close it comes to Pandemonium. 7/10 (dad goes to car to sleep) When we got off the skyride, I decided with my friends that we wanted to ride buzzsaw, with it's new paintjob. We heard soemthing really really funny. It wasn't to be mean or anything, but the announcer on Buzzsaw had an "indian" accent or some other sort. I won't go into details but she was like singing and saying phrases that sounded like instead of "If your having fun keep on screaming". It sounded more like, "If your having funny, keep on squezing?" And instead of "Put all of your loose arcticles on the other side of the airgate". It was "Put all of your Loosables on the other side of the merry gate". Well anways, Buzz saw had soemthing wrong with it, and we went around for about 30 times. Unless the lady was getting revenge on us for laughing. Too bad, becuase it was reall really fun. 9/10 I also wanted to try Splash Water Falls, so we did. It was a one raft wait. It was very funny with those rubber grips that made the raft spin faster, I guess..?? I didn't get wet at all until some teenagers sprayed us with those water cannons at the end. Very nice addition, gbut they should finish the water tower on top of the ride. 8/10 We got some chicken tenders, which were very good, and then went on Mid Eraser. We got the aqua train. It was not as rough as I remebered and had new restraints, I think? 6/10 because of the roughnesss We decided to go Into Hurricane Harbor on seeing that it was dead due to the 62 degrees, overcast weather. It was very cold, but fun we hit Typhoon 6x, Tornado 4x, Big Kahuna 3x Geronimo falls 2x Adventure River 2x Family Toboggan 2x, Shark Attack "went on all the colors", and hit the Wave Pool, and hit some of the Water Structures and their slides. 2000000/10 When we came back into the park, we hit Batman which was defintley really fun. 10/10 We also hit the Wave Swinger, Twister, and Scream! on Scream, I was freaking out on the part where it holds you up on top, so the guy next to me is like "Calm Down" I was like "No, how about you!" And well, that was funny Those rides > 8/10 Nearing the end of the day, We decided to wait for Superman. The line was short, but moving very slowly due to one train operations. 15 - 20 min. max. It was well worth it too! It seemed to somehow be running faster and had a cow load of airtime! a true 10/10 On the way out we took a quick ride on Tomahawk which was running faster and higher due to manual operations, and picked up my friends coupon books. And right when we got about 2 miles from the park, it started to pour. Lucky us..hehe

I was looking for a topic on this and here it is! my opinion changed yesterday when I went to SFNE! They did something I haven't seen in seasons before. They fill up the back row first, becuase the operator told me that then it flips more, and it did, it pulled out 7 consecutive flips. It was insane with no one in the front row! Also, When they usually hang you and then bring you down looking straight at the ground, we actually flipped, so 8 flips throughout the ride! SFNE definetley gets my vote
