Flying Trapeze and a Food Truck!?!?! Add a Wacky Worm and rename it TPR of the Seas.

I wonder how spacious the indoor skydiving will be. I know most land-based ones are pretty small. Great that it is not an up-charge!

I've never been here obviously, but this is extremely ghetto! [youtu_be] [/youtu_be]

^Yeah, but topper track is more durable, reducing maintenance cost after the initial investment. I don't understand why they wouldn't take off the trims if they put topper track on the ride.

^I think the most forces on a Vekoma Stingray would be on that half loop that you can see in the photo. I feel like if that is possible a 90 degree drop certainly is.

While I would love to see Time Machine go to Darien Lake, it is such a long shot that I don't even think it is worth discussing.

I didn't realize that there would be a catwalk underneath the inversion, that should be interesting.

They are being upfront about their goals... I don't know what else you can ask for? Game development costs a lot of money, so if you only have so much you build it for the bigger market first. And think about it, what is more cost effective? Having them build a Mac version, or you donating for a discounted digital download and taking that savings and buying a copy of paralleles or boot camp? Just my .02

Perhaps take the action of riding roller coasters and apply it to a bigger life lesson. For example, try to instill in your child that sometimes they need to conquer their fear. This is not just riding roller coasters, this is sleeping without the nightlight, going to Kindergarten the first day, trying new vegetables. If you teach your child to overcome their fears from an early age, I imagine riding roller coasters shouldn't be a problem.

^Nah, I'm sure there are others. Kingda Ka Comes to mind.

Still overpriced considering you'd have to pay me to go on Carnival.

I want to get on one of these! Need to work up the funds to travel more!

^I think it looks odd because the Behemoth style trains are wider than Steel Dragons 2 across seating.

Well, at least he was on F&@%ING RCCL.

Last time I went to Martin's Fantasy Island they were having a bad day. There was like, 10 minute turn-arounds on Mind-Warp!

Wow, that looks awesome! Didn't know about this project.

Maybe those padded restraints will help, probably not though as they do not help much on SLCs.

Edit: On my phone. Posted to wrong topic.

Quick question. I am going to IOA the 27th and plan on bringing my DSLR in a small draw string backpack. IIRC Hulk, Dragon Challenge, and MIB have free lockers for the duration of the queue correct? And Dr. Doom's freefall has bins?

1) Nice hair ^^^ 2) Those trains look great, thanks for the photos Great White! ^^ 3) They look more open than NTAG's trains, freedom!

I can't wait to try this and Outlaw run and see how they stack up against each other!

^That is slightly different, those are the same trains that are on Behemoth at Canada's Wonderland. For each car the front and the back seats are not aligned, this is supposed to allow for a more open riding experience. Steel Dragon 2000's seats appear to be in line, just at different heights. Edit: On second look the seats appear to be inline and the same height on SD2000.

This thing is so freaking majestic! I am debating about taking the 5 hour drive and go there for the media preview day. I really need to renew my ClubTPR membership anyway. Even the seagulls stop to admire Gatekeeper! "Mine, mine, mine, MINE!"

That height restriction is a little disappointing. I'm 5'11", but I have plenty of friends over 6'1". Note to self: Don't take them here.

It also looks like they have a Groupon going on right now, for anyone interested. I'll be in Tampa so I'm thinking about taking the 2 hour drive and doing it later this month. http://www.groupon.com/deals/trapeze-federation
