Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
CorkscrewFoley replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Precisely what myself, and many others have been thinking. Also, if so many people don't want to ride it, that's great, it means the queue will be that much shorter. -
Photo TR: Natatomic does the West Coast Trip
CorkscrewFoley replied to natatomic's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
It definitely does. And Natalie, I love the captions, especially about Wes. Being a canadian, you American sure have some bizarre inventions, like them picture boxes that move, and those flying machines. (Oh wait, that was a Family Guy ref...) -
DelGrosso's 2009?
CorkscrewFoley replied to eddie200330's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Thank you Eddie, I knew I wasn't imagining it. But yeah, those old Arrow loopers weren't exactly easy to take down and set up elsewhere like an Anton. -

^^I haven't been to the Point in a few years, but I could have sworn they let you ride without shoes on their water rides. I know from a safety view point, it's not a wise move, but nothing worse than squishing around all day in wet shoes, coming home, and you have elephant feet. -

I thought DelGrossos were getting a coaster, nothing extravgent. I could've sworn I read it somewhere... -

Yes, but if you look at it, they tore out Shoot the Rapids for WWL. I know it's redundant, but hey, they have another family friendly ride. Too bad they won't let you ride in your bathing suit. -
The infamous Rollback!
CorkscrewFoley replied to themeparkman25's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
No faulty stuff, and I'm aware that they're supposed to go backwards. That was the closest thing I've even come close to a rollback. -

The closest I've had to a rollback was on Wicked Twister and Steel Venom, erm...VooDoo, erm...Possessed. I know it's not Top Thrill or KK, but it was still fun. -

Oh you know it! You might even have a schlub in the buffet who will declare his number one loggie before he even rides it--although it may be too short for his liking... -
Photo TR: Dr.Gumbo’s Summer Bash
CorkscrewFoley replied to dr.gumbo's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Thanks for posting this TR, Dr. G. I have to say, I love the theming on Rick's Delight, erm...Falcon, The supports look amazing with the wooden feel to them--obviously, they're not wooden. -

They wanted to avoid hearing fat people question whether they would be able to ride. So they threw in a few fat riders to answer the question. They did this to to show the ACErs that they will be able to ride...zing! -

They still have tonnes of room left. Look at Grona Lund or PBB, they manage to shoehorn in rides. I always thought the Cadillac Cars in Frontier Trail could be used for a GCI twister. But I'm glad they decided to go with STR. -

Yeah, this is particularly why I'm stoked about STR, because I love me a good ol' loggie. Now I wonder if they'll do a modern day San Francisco Earthquake... -

Danno, great job with the TR and piccies. I loved the Simpsons' quote, and found myself doing a terrible Wolfcastle impression. -

If this is a filler ride like Twister, I'm sure there might be something next year. I was over on another forum, I won't say which one, but they're already bitching it's not a coaster. Plus, I love how this ride isn't a record breaker. It'll give their PR a team a challenge for advertising. -

I'm impressed with this ride. I'm glad it's not a new coaster, but I know this will not be a Dan approved ride. lol -

Disney to acquire Marvel
CorkscrewFoley replied to ParkTrips's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yes, Spidey will replace Mickey, and Wolverine will replace Donald--their temperments are about the same--should make for interesting visits.
