^I would 100% agree with you.

The dinosaur car is just a mock up. In fact the Dinosaur is made out of Styrofoam and many people have broken it off the car! Great Coasters just wanted to show some design ideas.

How much does Golden Horse ripoff though, just the Victory Kingdom SLC? At least they make some stuff that's their own? The BIG ripoff company was there though, the Beijing Shibaolai one! I went by them in the morning and they had brochures and everything. I couldn't bring myself to get closer than about 10 feet as I figured I might not be able to control myself and start yelling at them!!!! Now I wish I had gone and picked up one of their brochures! I'll go check early this morning and see what's going on.

Probably right after American Thanksgiving. There's a lot going on this week with IAAPA, then we're taking Kristen back to California for Thanksgiving to see her friends, but then we'll be back and get right into it!

^Pretty sure The Asylum has it in pre-production!

Didn't like the third row of Divertical also get soaked? It was like 1,3,5. First row from the splash downs, 3rd from from where the boat articulated and all the water came up through there and last row from behind! I also loved that ride and hope we see more of them! That lift is truly terrifying!!!!

More updates live from the show floor!!! This aerial ropes course looks terrifying! The Angry Birds Activity Parks are officially licensed and ready to be installed in your local theme park! It wouldn't be IAAPA without some awesome random park food to eat! Well the greaseless food looks pretty decent... Robb gives it the TPR Seal of Approval What's outside this year!?! Leave them in there!!!! S&S Mini Swing on display... And some pseudo-adults riding it! As the sun starts to set on IAAPA Day One, our faithful TPR Reporters are still Zip Lining the day away. Rick Hunter of Proslide won the IAAPA Impact Award and Best New Product Award! Look for this fun interview on our YouTube channel soon! Attention Crazy Australians!!! Check out this model of the all new Wet n Wild Sydney. Yes Waterworld will debut the first ever Hydro Magnetic Tornado

I spoke with Alan from Rocky Mountain quite a bit today and one thing he really emphasized was that you can't just throw on a better train and get a better experience. You have to have a good solid track, supports and everything that goes with it first. I really worry that unless they also retrack all of Hades it will be painful right out of the gate.

I hope to hear about a retracking as well. You can't just put new trains on a coaster and all will be great. I was even talking to Alan Schilke about this today! If the ride is retracked, new train(s), plus this it could be really awesome. I too loved this ride opening year.

We're discussing this in the IAAPA Thread as well! We will also have more photos and video tonight about it!

We are done taking questions at this time, but get ready to check our YouTube channel soon for IAAPA Interviews and YOUR questions answered!

Re: Mexico... Guys, there's nothing I can show you concrete, but you have to believe I did my research and wouldn't put myself and especially not my five year old daughter in any situation I didn't feel completely comfortable in. We will be staying at the finest hotels, using real guides and fabulous transportation. I will be instituting some special trip rules to keep us safe as well. You will not be allowed to go out at night alone, ladies (and gentlemen) will be told not to wear jewelry, you will have other restrictions on what to wear. In a way it will be similar to the Dubai trip but for different reasons.

I only see us opening up one or two days on the entire trip next year, and it's only a possibility. It will depend on signups and how many people the park wants us to bring. The biggest chance for opening up a day to do a big Bash Event would be Six Flags over Texas or Silver Dollar City.

Guys, they seriously just announced that they're putting an inversion on Hades at Mt. Olympus for next year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

^You're good to sign up.

^The drug is probably in that half gone, open Pepsi bottle one of the workers tried to sell Robb!

^I don't want to get you too excited...but there is a Magicquest right next to the Dallas Airport, less than 16 miles from Six Flags!!!!

Tempting!!!

8 million degree weather > 1 hour plus lines for crap!

You will arrive and depart NRT or HND (Tokyo Airports) for the main trip and the Japan Add On. There will be an option to fly into Nagoya for the add on if you want. This will all be discussed on the private board once it opens up. There will be two full Disney days on the trip with the option to add more on at the end if you'd like.

^The milk is very different for us, but is the same almost everywhere else internationally. Americans are just used to cold milk, not the ultra-pasteurized shelf milk.

^That's exactly what I was thinking! Although it does just sound like the woman 'missed' the boat when stepping in and somehow got herself wedged in there without any real injury.

Please if you have any questions just ask! Me (and other past trip participants if you'd like their opinion) are happy to answer! Trips ARE filling up and will go to wait lists this year, please sign up ASAP so we can plan accordingly!

Shock really blew me away! I totally agree with you that it's what Rockit should have been. I really wish they would run single trains on Rockit.
