Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
StarTrekGeek replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
And isn't he on his way out? Don't rule out a flyer just yet. I actually would also love a Wing Coaster, but I love Flying Coasters too, so either one will be cool. Luckily, B&M hasn't made a Floorless Coaster in years so I think we're good. Maybe we'll get a B&M Hyper since Cedar Point is known for its BIG coasters Are you really that negative about floorless coasters? I actually wouldn't mind one like Dominator. Besides, like someone pointed out, there is one going up in China now. As for a B&M Hyper, they already have an Arrow Hyper, Magnum, so I think we can rule out a B&M Hyper. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
StarTrekGeek replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think if it were to be a B&M coaster, it would either be a flying coaster or a wing coaster (or even a dive machine). My personal option: as much as a wing coaster would be awesome, I prefer the flying coaster, mainly because I'm a flying coaster junkie. Now for some designs we can rule out: * Inverted Coaster - They already have Raptor. * Stand-Up Coaster - They already have Mantis. * Hypercoaster - They already have Magnum (and some other airtime coasters that are not hypercoasters). -

The Most Shocking Ride Removals
StarTrekGeek replied to Kingsislandfreak's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Invertigo at CGA seems the most shocking removal. Right after it just opened from the accident, it got removed! The Dania Beach Hurricane closing also came as a shock to me. And after Chang got removed from SFKK, I thought the park was going to close in a year or two, but not at the time it closed. Speaking of which, Chang's removal was a pretty shocking one. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
StarTrekGeek replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Unfortunately, I agree. However, I do sense a coaster in 2013. Anyways, I went to Cedar Point for the first time on the 28th and 29th, and might I just say this... it was epic! Top Thrill Dragster is my new favorite coaster! The others were nice too, and the only one I was "meh..." with was Disaster Transport (yes, I didn't say Mean Streak). So my rides for the first day were: Raptor Mantis Millennium Force Dodgem Wicked Twister Flying Ace's Balloon Race Maverick Mean Streak Magnum XL-200 Top Thrill Dragster 2nd Day: Skyride Iron Dragon WindSeeker (I really liked this) Gemini Corkscrew Blue Streak Disaster Transport Troika Maverick Millennium Force Top Thrill Dragster Skyride Rides I wanted to ride, but could not because I was in a hurry: MaxAir Power Tower Skyhawk -

Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said

Same thing happened to me at KD's Hurler. My lap bar unlatched on the lift, but I pushed it back in and held on. -

Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread
StarTrekGeek replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Okay so I have visited KD recently, and I didn't think Anaconda was that rough. However I had kind of a boring experience. I like the drop into the tunnel, but otherwise it was kind of "meh..." Oh, and BTW, Intimidator 305 became my favorite coaster tied with X2 at SFMM! And the park was awesome as well! -
Europa Park Discussion Thread
StarTrekGeek replied to Ultracoasters's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
First off, the new GCI woodie looks pretty awesome! I also agree with the above posts: Europa Park is a truly amazing park that combines the way Disney themes their parks with amazing coasters. I was really impressed with that when I visited last summer. -

Next park is Carowinds, followed by Kings Dominion, and then possibly Cedar Point. -
Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread
StarTrekGeek replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^I actually thought of that when I first heard of Attraction 2012 last year. I was thinking it could be America's first B&M Wing Coaster. However, now I'm starting to think that this is an Intamin Hyper (though the Wing Coaster is my second option). -

My favorite is the Congo River Rapids at BGT, followed by a tie between Splash Mountain, Popeye, and Ripsaw Falls.
