  1. I always thought ocean city's first "real" coaster would go to Gillian's and I never thought it would be a launch. I can't wait to check this out.
  2. Agreed. Hydra does nothing for me. It also bums me out that it was hercules' replacement. Everyone thought some epic terrain coaster would take that place but instead we got a tiny, forceless floorless, that doesn't make sense. It has all the elements of a good ride, but the flow is just wacky.
  3. Nope. Im not strapping into anything thats going to hold me down. That water rushing over him at the end seems like waterboarding.
  4. There are some phone cases you can get on Amazon that have a lanyard attachment on them. I got one and loop a lanyard around my Belt loop. Never losing a cell phone again!
  5. I've never bought flashpass and the only time I haven't ridden everything is during fright fest. Weekday during summer you should be fine.
  6. More riff raff means higher attendance and more coasters. But private tour companies will offer trips, the same way they do to Atlantic city. Won't change anything, but Christie does suck as a governor. Still waiting on that disaster statement for south Jersey for the storms a few weeks back. Still have friends without power. Typical GOP selfish jerk, completely out of touch with his state.
  7. I would like some kind of real boardwalk or lakefront walkway. Have restaurants and shops on one side and nothing but lake on the other.
  8. We don't need a new coaster, but we lost rolling thunder. Would be nice to maintain a number than go backwards.
  9. Does anyone know what el Toros maintenance is like? It's almost ten years old and rides like new. Seems like a great investment.
  10. Man I sure hope these free spin rumors are false. But if they are true I'll get another few years of traveling to parks I've never been to instead.
  11. http://www.itv.com/news/2015-06-04/alton-towers-visitor-who-warned-staff-about-carriage-on-rollercoaster-told-to-mind-his-own-business/ This doesn't appear to be good.
  12. Someone I know just posted a photo on Instagram of skull mountains waterfalls not working. Weren't they on a few years ago for a bit?
  13. Valleys happen, but are rare. It's crazy to thing something failed at the same time a Valley occurred. I also haven't seen anything on the news, but I do only get cnn since I use the Apple TV as my entertainment system. Usually they are on top of every single wild mouse that doesn't make it to the lift hill. Do any coasters have a way for the computer to know exactly where on the tracks it is? Seems like it shouldn't be too hard to have a sensor every hundred feet or so.
  14. I need to get back there for maverick. Haven't been to the point since my friend and I day tripped it from philly back in 06.
  15. Casinos are dying, other forms of tourism are taking off. All the doom and gloom is due to a drop in casino revenues. I wouldn't say dying, but changing.
  16. http://www.bizjournals.com/philadelphia/news/2015/05/27/florida-developer-wallack-coaster-atlantic-city-nj.html?ana=e_phil_bn_breakingnews&u=jQaEyayZXYTSsqxVyk+dZJvKIrX&t=1432748015 Time will tell. Being familiar with the city, the location is pretty much right where the expressway ends, and the view coming in would be amazing.
  17. I hope not a batman clone. People will love it, but personally I'd ride teacups if I wanted to spin and puke. Coasters to me should feel like I'm covering some sort of distance.
  18. It's crazy to think that it's been 20 years. I remember when the great white was built. I remember seeing kamikaze (even though that was hunts pier) from the beach being too young to ride. I'm glad I finally got ride it (in sfog) this year and have to say it's better than the nor Easter by far. My dream would be topper track on great white and custom rmc for the dual pier woodie. The topper track sections on Georgia cyclone were el toro smooth. I just never really see lines at moreys so I'm sure financially a huge coaster to them is like an average family buying a new car.
  19. I would love to think that RMC coming onto the scene is the cause of the delay. I mean, a zero g stall over the beach between piers would rule.
  20. Am I the only person who did not find it bad? Ive only been on mantis and GL, and found mantis to be a bit rougher, but both of them were perfectly fine.
  21. The town of Jackson approved great adventures solar field.
  22. I just got glasses this year and only went to one park with them which was hershey. They didnt even budge, even on skyrush. glasses straps FTW.
  23. Yea, I think KK's "dual station" design was flawed from the start. If they used a system like TTD's, things would certainly be improved. However, the staffing issues come into play, there - the rolling block system requires more staffing to work effectively. I disagree. When both sides and all four trains were in use, it works wonderfully.
  24. I've given up hope that the new woodie will ever be built
  25. So what does that mean. The lake! It means the lake! But probably not.
