Is the coaster powered? It looks like it has NO hills what so ever in the renders. I'm sure it'll be a fun ride for kids though!

I was watching the coverage at my friends house. I still think it's a bit disturbing that there have been so many natural disasters lately!

She had never been to an amusement park before! You guys looked like you had fun!

Then you should have plenty of proof all this happened. Is there a case # or something we could look up? What was the outcome of the lawsuit? You should have also immediately pressed charges...that's assault. I'm not sure, I'd have to ask my mom. I'll see what I can do. Though I don't think they release transcripts from cases with minors though. It happened two years ago.

Do you like Nsync? I used to hear them on the radio in first grade. What ever happened to them?

That same thing happened to my on an S&S Space Shot. It almost felt like 2 or 3 clicks acually. I held on really tight for the rest of the ride too! Something similar happened to my on Catapult at sfne. The restraint popped out when I was hanging. It made the ride much more exciting!

I may just have to go to that school. If they have any graphic design programs, I'm set!

Maybe they'll start making trainers putting their hair in buns?

I promise you it wasn't photo shopped, I can show you the page that the picture came on as well. I also understand that my parent's need to be more pro active, as I said though, my school isn't very helpful, they aren't willing to work with us. But what happened with the person that said they were in a car accident? Why did they say that? EDIT: ^Someone asked how much school I have left, I'm a junior. One more year.

People have died from roller coaster accidents. Should you close the coaster because someone died? Probably not. A man dies from a whale accident, do you kill the whale? No. In essence, both things are doing what they were meant to do. And somthing went wrong. I don't think they should kill the whale. Besides, it will give the park publicity. A father and his son walk into the park. son: "hey dad did you know that whale killed someone?" dad: "really! That's awesome, let's go see it!" In turn they may be inclined to spend more. I don't want to come across like a money hungry jerk either.

I feel the same about those kamikaze ride. You feel like you are slipping out when you hang upside down.

My parents sued the girls parents and the school, I can also scan in the picture if you'd like to see it. It's a bit small. Also, my school does have cameras, they did catch it. The girl was suspended for a month. I'm scanning in the picture right now. You can see the sling on the side My school is very ignorant. Actually, the principle that handled the case was recently fired. I've tired going to my guidance counselors but they don't do much. It's a giant bureaucracy. They just give you a false sense of caring at my school. Also, my school has over 1000 kids (and I think it may be at 1500). They can barley control any of them. We service many of the districts around the region including, Spafford, Winchester, Keene and a few other towns. Most of the kids have issues and take them out on people. No body really cares either. I promise I wouldn't make anything like this up. I also cannot transfer because my parent's don't have the money and the nearest school is in Dublin which is about 45 minutes from my house. I really don't want to commute either.

I knew you would dude, all that stuff you collect is sweet!

I really like the one with the hulk, and gary being launched out of the coasters tunnel!

I've gotten picked on horribly in school. At one point I was actually cutting myself. Kids, especially girls would be horrendously mean to me. one of them pushed me down a set of stairs and all her friends laughed. I broke my collar bone, In fact my high school freshmen year picture has me with a sling on in my year book. Last Friday a girl and all of her friends dumped a bottle of snapple on my head and swore at me for no reason. I've given up with not only girls, but people. They S****. I'de much rater isolate myself and talk about roller coasters. I've only ever really gotten along with enthusiasts.

That's some really nice work! The tat will also have some other elements included into it. I'm not scared of coasters, but I'm scared of other things, so I'm going to incoporate courage into it some how.

Elissa Redirected my thread I created to over hear. Lately, I've been considering getting some tattoo work done this summer, and naturally I want my tattoo to be affiliated with coasters in someway. This is a definite maybe, since my dad is a total stickler on cleanliness and appearance, but since I'm going to be 18, that really doesn't matter too much. I was thinking about having some track that wraps around my fore-arm but I wasn't too sure on what to do. Do any of you guys have some ideas? It would be much appreciated!

(I'm sorry If I placed this in the wrong forum. I wasn't really sure what this topic should be under since it is rather different. I suppose it's a question though) Peace

I think that the idea of an old world charm is great, but that has failed the park. They need new things which is what they are doing. I think the magic will still be there though.

Pretty cool TR. You can definitely see the difference between both periods of time. Pretty soon, all of this will be pretty retro.

Yes - the Equinox is better known as a KMG Tango. Take an Intamin FLOORLESS stand-up drop ride, mix it with a Zamperla Power Surge or Zamperla Shocker, and that's what you've got. It is one of the most painful-in-all-the-wrong-places rides in existence. oh my...

Do you actually stand up on equinox?

The american hot-dog stand is priceless. I've also never seen that euro-fighter before.

It's nothing personal, it's just that whenever I go there, they make us get out every 5 min to check for bacteria. Plus some kid fudged in the pool too!
