B&M vs Intamin
CoasterKidKyle replied to alpengeistdude321's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Intamin for the win. I like to think of it as I305 vs I232. It just summarizes what I feel about both companies. There is however, nothing wrong with an awesome B&M. -
Long wait times?
CoasterKidKyle replied to Coasters 4 ever's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
45 minutes for Volcano. As the official park planner for our trips, I always seem to pick magical days. ( Three parks a year.) -
Amusement Ride Breakdown!
CoasterKidKyle replied to Mr Stratosphere's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The only breakdown I have experienced (Technically it was an E-Stop but I am sharing it.) was on SuperDooperLooper. A lady was checking restraints when the dispatcher accidently hit the dispatch button. The restraint checker arm was stuck on a seat, and the dispatcher hit the E-stop just in time, before the station ended. Me and my friend were stuck in there for a good 15 minutes. Needless to say, the woman checking restraints had a panic attack, and seemed very tentative after that. -

Jeez. I knew he was joking. Since when has a sense of humor disappeared off the face of the Earth. -

There going to trim the whole first drop until 150' feet, have it turn to the second hill, then drop. Just my $.02 -
Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread

^ This. I am fourteen years old, and because I will probably never ride a ride of this caliber until I reach adulthood, I just appreciate it. Not being much of an enthusiast, but knowing information and following this website has its perks. I ride rides for enjoyment, not to find issues and problems with them. Enough with the biography, I feel the trims added to the hang time, and due to my small size, I felt as if I was thrusted into restraint the whole drop. So while some of you complain, I will be counting down the hours until next years KD trip. I may not have mentioned airtime is the best thing in the world. -

Whaaaaaaaaaa..? Five cobra rolls wouldn't be enough. The GP wants a loop, and nothing but a big loop. After all, the park caters to the people, not enthusiasts, so they are adding a 1,000 foot loop. Honestly, I think they are relocating the trims. Which, by the way, is perfectly fine with me. -
Coasters at Night
CoasterKidKyle replied to Erik Johnson's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Pitch black 270* turn, and twisting awesomeness, I love I-305 in the dark. -

^ I bet looking at that line was scarier than the haunt. -
Not so much howl-o-scream days as nights. Last year our German class took a field trip on a saturday. Nessie was a walk-on, Griffin was around 15 minutes. Apollo's Chariot we rode 3 times in 10 minutes, and we didn't ride Alpie until night time which was an hour. Griffin was an hour fifteen minutes, and Apollo's was around 45, and was well into the switchbacks.

They are probably just landscaping. -

Flight Of Fear is hit or miss for me. I go there once a year, and sometimes its down, sometimes its fine. -

They do. They are near Shockwave..they are under the other toys, and on the second row of toys hanging up. Those little Domos sure know how to hide. -
Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread
CoasterKidKyle replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Just something to spark up a bit of conversation. Lets say Hershey told us they were removing a ride for this coaster and we didn't know where it would be located. Which ride would you want them to remove? -
Best and Lamest Coaster "Ending"
CoasterKidKyle replied to Teddymonster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but Intimidator 305 has a pretty good ending. That intense twist hill into the breaks is awesome. It is one of the most intense twists and its a good finale. -
What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?
CoasterKidKyle replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Unfortunately, I-305. I haven't been on a coaster in just about a month. Thankfully the Hershey Park trip is on the horizon. (image from students.egfi-k12.org) -
