Hockeyman55 - Theme Park Pics Thru My Eyes

Hopefully sooner than later! Awesome shots! -
I was wondering how long it was going to take for a wooden shuttle coaster to pop up. I would've thought Gravity Group would've been first out of the gate but GCI has proven themselves in their "traditional" woodies so I'm excited to see one built. Did they happen to mention if any interest has been shown by any parks? ^I'm wondering that as well. Similar to Vekoma's Boomerang maybe?

Height requirement change was due to 2 things: 1 - Lap bar only having a "3 click" design. 2 - Insurance company, (Thus why Zoom received seat belts as soon as CF took over. ) ^Both of the Jaguars on the brake run only "breathe" mist. The controls for the fire on top of the Temple are still in the closet behind the Dispatch panel. There's no propane being fed to them anymore so they wouldn't work. I myself always wondered why they turned it off as it was a cool effect. There also used to be "Mee Fog" that used to run down the "stairs" at the entrance to the attraction. The park was working on getting that working back in 2010 and it did for a few weeks and then stopped shortly after that.

This is 100% true. I worked at KBF for 5 1/2 years. I operated every coaster in the park (except GR) which was fun however the most fun I had was when I was operating Wipeout in Boardwalk or Hat Dance in Fiesta Village. The smaller attractions allow for more guest interaction because there's not as much of a push from management for efficiency. Obviously flat ride operators still need to have some sense of urgency (especially the single operator attractions) but not as much as a coaster. -

I'm a few days late on this but this looks a lot better than Tatsu.
