I've been seeing the Trojan's Woman's Personal Massager commercial on alot lately where the old lady tells the two women where to buy it... It's not right. And who could forget SHAM WOW! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ns4mnmNBk1Y

"Extreme TPR... rides a rollercoaster!" I think it would be a good show.

I think it's up to the smaller parks such as Dollywood to step it up a bit. Dollywood has already done this with Mystery Mine - hopefully they can continue it in the future.

That's right, I'm back with Hershey's Hawaiian Escape. But Coasterdude5, the park is over!!1! I saw the park be torn down piece by piece! Yes, you did. But what you didn't see was Years 31 through 36. So we're going to take a trip back to a time period decades ago when the park was going through a difficult time. A time before Solar Flare, a time before Flyuira. You're going to see the things you never saw, the things you never heard about. These... are the Hershey's Hawaiian Escape Lost Years. Update Year 31 It's always nice to have the waterfall greet you as you enter the park. The park's newest coaster, Peregrine, is awaiting me! At this time of day, it's rare to see anybody in the back of the park. The ride is very... yellow. Zhambia Sidewinder got a bit redder over the off-season. It still looks like an impressive ride. Oronga is still as large as it was last season! Triple loop! Anybody know what this is a homage to? Side view of the volcano! Tidal Wave sticks out over the entrance plaza. Kaena Point Falls More soon.

I think it's because some people would notice the similarities between it and Fahrenheit. Which one's newer? Millenium Force still has enough of the wow factor to make its own segment. Anybody notice the wha...girl in the Fahrenheit station freaking out? Calm down, you're not on Stormrunner. I wonder if Coastin' Steve is registered here...(nice goggles) I thought it was a great show. Nothing more than I would expect, but it was still a good show. Maybe this will bring a few more in the future.

It seems to be a pretty average show but it's still awesome to see something new! It's weird seeing the Stratosphere coasterless...

It's been a while since there has been a new show on coasters but it looks like a new one is premiering tonight on the Travel Channel. Catch Extreme Terror Rides tonight at 9:00 eastern. From the Travel Channel's Website: Think you've been on some extreme rides? The Travel Channel has the list of some oldies, newbies and some rides not even open to the public yet. Join us, as we get VIP access to America's "Extreme Terror Rides."

Not sure if this thread will stay open but I thought I'd add one from my : I thought all Australians were hot blonde chicks...

Great trip report. Gwazi's station always seems to look the same. That's exactly how it looked when I was there in March 2007. I'd hate to be in charge of counting all of those flamingos...

I agree. I'd take a "tame" hyper over an overly-intense any day. If it's too intense, it loses its re-rideability.

I forgot to mention, voting will run for two weeks. Nah, that's a cool shot.

I hope there's a soak zone like Sheikra and Griffon have. That might have been left out of the concept art. I don't get how people can complain about this. IT'S A NEW COASTER! Be glad you're getting something, and it looks like a pretty awesome something to me. Sure it might not be the best, most forceful coaster to hit the planet, but I think it's going to be a pretty cool ride.

Update Year 8 Hola amigos! The Don Quixote area now has a sign! MetroAcelerar Mas, pronto!

Cool trip report. I gotta say, The Bat's new paint job looks pretty cool.

The name's alright. The only thing I don't get is the yellow supports on the lift hill... But I guess it's different in a good way. The splashdown looks great.

Voting is now open for the Coaster101 Photo Contest! http://coaster101.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=80 Registration is not required.

^ Thanks, but I actually don't spend that much time on the game. Maybe 3 hours a week, if that.

Update Year 8 Hola! Today I got a look inside the new Teatro Azul! The stage is very big! Mas, pronto!

I think the park needs to "fill in" and mature a bit. With a new advertising strategy, I'm sure this park will suceed in the long-run.

Update Year 8 Hello, here are some more photos from my tour of Joe's Crab Shack last night. Here you can see the reservation desk area; this is where people will wait to be seated. Here's an overview of the restaurant and the wooden coaster. - - - Orleans Place Boardwalk wants YOU to name their wooden rollercoaster! Submit as many name entries as you'd like! If your name you submit is selected, you'll get the first ride on the coaster! (an early download) Start thinking of some ideas! The theme is loose, so don't shy away from anything! - - -

Unfortunately (for me), that feeling goes away over time... I used to hate it but love it and now I miss the days when I would get it on every type of drop. Nowadays it has to be a HUGE drop or a S&S tower to give me that feeling.

Mine would have to be Expedition Everest.

I'm not sure what it's been about this KI coaster, but I haven't really gotten into the speculation that much, even before the blueprints were found. I guess because it was "almost confirmed" for so long that it was going to be a hyper. I'm still looking forward to the announcement. Hopefully the name will be interesting.

Update Pre-Opening Tonight I got the special opportunity to go inside Joe's Crab Shack. I've head this restaurant will probably open before the actual park does. They've got lots of seating here! Check back soon for more updates!

Update Year 8 Hola! How are you doing today? We are now in Year Ocho! (eight) The new Teatro Azul looks great! Mas, pronto!
