  1. During the past seven days, I took 1749 photos at Busch Gardens Africa, Adventure Island, Sea World, Aquatica, and Discovery Cove using my new camera... my brother now calls me "trigger happy"!
  2. The first brake stops the train completely. When the ride had three trains, one of them were in storage.
  3. I've heard many times on Trip Advisor that if the park get's too full, they'll close the gates and then re-open it at a later time.
  4. Rumor's out that Chang might be going to Six Flags Great Adventure to replace Great America Scream Machine. Quote from The Coaster Critic's website: Read more
  5. Sidewinder - by: Lee Morgan
  6. ^^^ I have seen one of those simulators at the Kalahari Resort in Ohio. They are much better than the old and very rough versions. Went to the U.S. Space and Rocket Center yesterday and is wondering if I should post a Photo TR on it. It has a motion simulator, a 140ft S&S Space Shot, and a cool Gravitron called G-Force Accelerator.
  7. ^ and agreed. This ride looks like it'll feel weird, and the model makes it look like it did come from RCT but then they smoothed it out in NoLimits! Still I like the looks of it.
  8. The U.A.E has got to have the biggest and the best! I can't wait till I go back to Dubai someday, I might come around there to ride this sleeping beast. Will Formula Rossa crap all over I305? It's all about the launch!
  9. Great report, looks like you guys are still having fun I see! I've heard about the mysteries of Valhalla and its unacceptable amount of wetness, which is why I'm dying to ride it. Someday I will.
  10. Relocating would be the worst choice, moving everything would be a total mess. But I did find a location that I would prefer more if they were to move. http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&cp=38.27330307191593~-85.87688255264743&lvl=14&sty=h ...(Scroll right to see the city of Louisville.) This area looks kinda like SFMM, but its not that hot, and not that high. But most of the mess would come from blasting rocks .
  11. ^ Me neither, but if it started at a different location, then it would have its own land instead of renting forever.
  12. Brave men on the second photo of Apocalypse! The photos are great, it looks like you guys are having fun. Could someone pose a peace sign in front of any random roller coaster just for me?!
  13. I like the photos, especially the photo of the Maxair ride with the restraints open.
  14. I think to make things better, the park should reopen at a different location. That site is mainly for rent and that has been causing problems for all park owners that use that land.
  15. When I want to submit a photo to the TPR index, why does it always say "Please sign in with your Theme Park Review Forum Account" whenever I still sign in under the "Sign in" lines.
  16. If they should stay a family-friendly park, I think they should put in either a Scream-N-Swing and/or a Junior Swing (smaller version of a S-N-S). Great TR, does Diamondback hurt at all?
  17. Very nice pics, you do better captions than I do because mine are boring. I knew Vekoma had some painful rides, but do their flying coasters hurt too? Dang, my brothers went on one in Six Flags America and they said it was awesome, hmm. Intimidator looks much more thrilling than Goliath in SFOG, but you can't beat the duration of the helix of death . Anyways, great TR and while you're in Atlanta, don't miss IHOP reasturaunt. Like Waffle House, but it doesn't look like a truck stop with no gas pumps, and they make pancakes that are really good!
  18. Edit & Notice: If you came straight from the Six Flags Over Georgia page of the TPR Park Index, then please scroll up all the way. Thank You! Day three of my visit, I go to Six Flags White Water and I was brave enough to bring a camera because I don't think there are enough photos of this excellent waterpark. ^A lamp and a speaker playing some good music all day. ^Walking into the waterpark. ^Two bodyslides that ends into the Lazy River, it felt kinda awkward because it was large and seemed like it was meant to be used with an innertube. ^A look at the slides. ^Three awesome bodyslides I rode. And you can tell how big the chute is compared to the people on the right. ^Rapids Slide, pretty fun! ^The pitch black Black River Falls innertube slide. ^The Bermuda Triangle Slides. I think this is the best inner tube slide in the whole waterpark. ^The 100 Meter Splash mat racer slide. ^The end to Bahama Bob family raft slide. ^The 100 Meter Splash. ^100 Meter Splash and Bahama Bob Slide. ^Sign for the one of the waterpark's two family raft slides. ^TPR's favorite slide! Why?... ^Now you know. (once in the page, scroll down) P.S., they raised the water to be level with the white paint on the pool wall. ^Dragon's Tail insane bodyslide and waterslide with the most airtime in the park. ^Slightly crowded swimming pool. ^Beautiful Water Wheel. ^I put my regular camera away to pull out my waterproof camcorder, just incase it gets wet because it was raining a little. This slide is the Bonzai pipeline slide that's in the corner of the giant pool. Its like a Proslide Superloop, but less intense, much slower, ends in a pool, and has no trapdoor. ^The Three Slide Body Flume slide next to it. ^This was a pretty fun slide, its actually my favorite bodyslide in the park (Excluding Cliff Hanger) ^The start of the slide (Note that the slide usually has a short line). ^This used to be a slide? looks dangerous in a 3ft pool. Good thing they closed it. ^Noted ^It started raining and people started leaving, we went to the car to wait until it blows over and Six Flags re-opens the slides. ^People leaving. ^American Adventures Building, I think. ^The swinging ship. ^Balloon ride. After a while, people returned to the waterpark and I went back to ride the tallest waterslide I've ever been on. ^Crappy picture yes, but here is the Cliffhanger and Run-A-Way Rapids. Cliffhanger was an amazing slide and (as stated above) was the tallest waterslide I've ever been on. ^Nothing comforted people more than Carpeting! You get a great complete view of Run-A-Way Rapids. The Wiggles World play area is not built for kids to run, but kids do it anyways because they are having so much fun. Many kids slip and scrape their knees because they want to catch a sqirting fountain or get on a slide quickly. The whole floor in the area needs to be padded because kids love to run and the floor is very slippery. That's all the pictures I have to show you about Six Flags White Water. I only have one video to show you that which is a video of the Bonzai Waterslide, enjoy! [coastertube]http://www.themeparkreview.com/coastertube/play.php?vid=SANY0008_vz64[/coastertube]
  19. ^ Xcuze you < Xcuze me v Xcuze thee
  20. My Ninja Video quickly uploaded to Youtube. I will have an edited version posted to YouTube and Coastertube once I get back to Kentucky in a few days. By the way, I found Ninja in the TPR Park Index listed as "(This ride or attraction is no longer open.)". Someone should change that. Edit: I just added a Splashwater Falls video in the first post.
  21. 1) Six Flags Over Georgia: First Update (Below) 2) Six Flags White Water 3) Six Flags Over Georgia: Second Update Flew down to meet my Mom who lives in Atlanta. She askes us what we might want to do while we are here, and Six Flags parks were the choices. My update will include photos and (soon) videos of Six Flags Over Georgia and Six Flags White Water. I don't have anything else general to say, so I'll go straight to SFOG. The park was great, only Acrophobia was broken down and I only saw one girl throw-up, so things went well! the line for everything was either short or nearly empty, including Goliath. Scortcher was a lot of fun, it was my first time on scortcher so it almost made up for the loss of Chang in KK. Goliath was fast and had serious airtime on every hill which made for an awesome experience, though one of the trains are rougher than the other it was still fun. Mind Bender was a G-Force wake-up call for me because after the first loop, I greyed out a little for some reason. Batman had little to no airtime and seems a bit louder then most other B&M inverted coasters I've seen. I still can't believe I came off of Ninja Without a headache because I took Robb's advice and sat in the front row of the last car, I even asked people who were sitting in front of me "how was the ride", and they said it hurt them. After Ninja, I made the worst mistake and rode GASM. That roller coaster is terrible and I could tell that other people on the ride were uncomfortable too. Funny how the ride has some airtime, but its just not worth it, it hurt my Mom's neck two years ago. Superman's queue was way too slow, so was getting back into the station after the ride was over. Coming back to the front of the park the line for Goliath was pretty much empty, whitch suprised me because I thought that would be so popular that people would flock to it. The last ride I rode after that was Log Jammer, fun but the front row gets you more wet. The only Flat ride I rode was Wheelie which was weird but fun! I went to Acrophobia before I left the park to see how it was doing because I haven't been on any sort of a free-fall ride for four to five years now, and I wanted to ride this. Low and Behold the ride was "Facing Technical Difficulties", so I only stood to look and take pictures of the car with the seats tilted forward. I skipped Georgia Cyclone because I didn't want to ride another woodie after was GASM did to me, ouch! There you have it, that was how well the day went. I go home sweaty, sleepy, nausiated, and eating German Roasted Peanuts! If you're wondering about the girl who threw up, I was walking into Gotham and looked to my left to see a girl covering her mouth throwing up (insert object and description here), and it was a little gross. Thank you for reading and tune in next time when I upload medium quality photos of Six Flags White Water. Ride Count: Georgia Scortcher--1 Goliath--2 Mind Bender--1 Batman: The Ride--1 Wheelie--1 Ninja--1 GASM--1 Superman: Ultimate Flight--1 Log Jammer--1 Full edited video: [coastertube]http://www.themeparkreview.com/coastertube/play.php?vid=SFOG_Simple__TPR__jynr[/coastertube] And now the moment you've been waiting for! Were Coming! Georgia Cyclone looked like it was broken down, but it started up later. Coming into the park. Goliath is an awesome ride. Say Bye-Bye Coming around the corner Airtime Galore! Heh, how Ironic I skipped this one. Big Screen. Close today for some reason. What rides on green, and is flamboyant all over? The line was pretty short when I went on. Everybody knows that its hard to take pictures of this ride. Nerd Shot! The better looking train. Now were talkin' Can I ride? Twisty Great theming. Coming into the second loop. I didn't feel any heavy forces on this ride. I didn't feel any airtime either. Again Great Theming! Someone should scrape those off. I rode the ride in socks! Sad, Mini Monster Truck #7 was tipped over. What's more creepy?! Playing some kind of Dance Dance Revolution Challange Goliath's 200ft lift Yay, an old building! Ninja was sporting it's Axe skin, I thought it looked cool. Just like Ninja, beautiful but deadly. Don't ride it in the first car, third row. Fun ride, slow operators. Quite forceful on the pretzel loop, but it was enjoyable. It looks like you almost come close to the fence and roof. This looked interesting. Supergirl Superman Did you know... I didn't write this, look what I found! Compare this high quality camera photo... ...To this camcorder photo. =-P Superman tried to make a call? The telephone booth with no phone. I wanted to ride this so badly, but my brother said no. Mezmerized by moving puppets! Proof I'm a noob with a camcorder. hmm! Family photo? Low lines = ride-ons =-) Going up! Going down! random nerd shot. whoopse, undercoaster shot. Plant tunnel, I really like this. View from Log Jammer's line. Walking towards Acrophobia, I spotted this here. Sign posted in fron of the line. =-( Did you know... The seats that are tilted forwards like it does when it reaches the top. Had to make a panorama because I couldn't get the whole ride in one shot. Close-up on sign. Did you know... I really with I could have ridden this ride, oh well maybe next time. Skipped it, didn't feel like riding a woodie. Last photos thanks for viewing. This was really good German Roasted Nuts.
