Holiday World (HW) Discussion Thread
RoCo replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think anyone who lived through the summer the Midwest just lived through will have nothing but good things to say about more waterpark attractions. I know I heard a lot of awful stories. If they put a big giraffe head up on top of the former PP, that would be pretty damned awesome. -

Gorgeous update! It's an interesting choice they've made, to "fence in" the lift hill. This is the first time I've seen this. Has it ever been done on a coaster before? I laugh in awe EVERY time I see a shot of that overbanked turn. MUST HAVE. -
Photo TR: Megan's China Trip with TPR!
RoCo replied to Pirouettes907's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Another fantastic report; enjoying these so much! "World of Warcraft..." -
^I'm sure you are right about the view, but I think 150 feet is about all I can handle on a Star-Flyer. Any higher than that, I want more than slinkly little chains holding me up. #BigWuss Very interesting trivia about the Ferris wheel; I had no idea.
-
I hope your excellent memo to Six Flags is read and noted by all the major chains. Disney certainly gets it; most of the rest not as much: Cool rockwork makes everything better. Very glad to see you also grabbed some ECAT, Exclusive Clean Air Time.

Chuck's Busch Gardens Williamsburg Thread
RoCo replied to cfc's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Even if this event is lighter on the scares, the "phobias" maze sounds pretty enticing (I'll probably never completely get over a fear of heights), and I would love to see this gorgeous park all fogged up and spooky some time. Plus, those nurses. Cool report! -
Wow, I did not appreciate how spindly those spokes really look on the Ferris wheel until seeing this report. And that Star Flyer? Forget it, NO WAY EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER. Awesome photos, thanks!

All these China trip reports are jaw-droppingly amazing. Some of these parks look almost post-apocalyptic. The dark rides alone are making me crazy with want.

"Airtime Hump" (This looks amazing. I didn't need another reason to want to get to this park very, very badly, but one more is fine.) -
TPR's 2012 China Trip!

Yeah, this does look pretty cool. A flyer with a vertical lift is highly appealing to me. -

Another sweet collection! Boy, I sure do miss the Tree Triple Wheel... [runs off to rewatch "Beverly Hills Cop 3"] Thanks as always for posting all this great material! -
Fantastic report, and I'm loving all the culture/non-park related stuff as much as the rest. The Great Wall, does indeed look great. Looking forward to more!

The BEST roller coaster view EVER???
RoCo replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
These are amazing shots, and certainly, those vistas up there are insane. If we can qualify that second thing as a "mine train" coaster, then HANDS DOWN, that's the best view off of a mine train you will ever find. -

China, YOU SO CRAZAY! That looping toboggan is amazing. -
TPR's 2012 China Trip!
RoCo replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I gotta say, I thought the High-Five element looked very, very cool, but these two shots go WAY past my expectations for its awesomeness. Yeah, want dat bad. "Music Virus" = "Disco Fever" ? Fantastic updates! -

TPR's 2012 China Trip!
RoCo replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Looks like this trip is a complete mega-blast, even if some of it also looks like the TPR version of Fear Factor. Poor Lunchmeat looks like he's coming down with mange or something.
