The last new Coaster in your Count
chargersmichael replied to K1ngdaKa88's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
My last new coaster was Raptor at Cedar Point last summer! (It was my first time at Cedar Point and Raptor happened to be the last one I went on so technically all of those coasters there were new to me!) But...I am heading to Dollywood this summer! Going to pick up Wild Eagle, Firechaser Express and Lightning Rod! -
Was at the park today! The Cobra Roll is complete and the twist coming out of the tunnel was started!!! Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures with me as my phone died by the time I finished up at Universal and made it over to Islands. Btw, anyone notice something weird about the tunnel? The last green strip on the outside looks crooked and broken almost. It looks as if it they slid it back. Also, the opening out of the tunnel looks more narrow. It seems they built a smaller ring around it just before you exit the tunnel. Kong was looking amazing! I'm sure it is going to be a huge hit with the park! Lots of work was being done on the outside of the Jimmy Fallon building. Almost looks as if a new facade was being put up.

I was at Universal today...and it is just absolutely insane the amount of construction. At the Universal Park -Jimmy Fallon -Fast & Furious -The Roboasis by MIB (something is happening to it because it is gone!) -Facade Enhancements in Certain Areas At Islands of Adventure -Hulk -King Kong In General -Sapphire Falls Hotel -Volcano Bay Water Park From a distance...Universal looks like the Capital of Cranes!!! So much construction!!!

Correct me if I'm wrong...but weren't those 2 slides already there? I know they opened recently though. -
I know that there are some people that think Mako will not be too exciting...but I think this will be a fun ride! There really aren't a lot of airtime coasters in Florida and I'm glad that Florida is finally getting a B&M Hypercoaster! When this was announced...I was hoping the drop was going to be a steep one. Goliath at SFOG really doesn't have that steep of a drop. I'm excited to take a back row ride on Mako when it opens to feel the ejector air on this drop! I personally think this is going to be a great turn out for SeaWorld and a fantastic ride!

What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?
chargersmichael replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit at approx. 12:02 am on January 1st!!! Started off the New Year with a rockin' start! -
They have a Mako preview set up in the Sharks exhibit and the video playing there has some really cool music that certainly sounds like it was produced specifically for the video for this attraction. I know nothing about that industry and how stuff like that gets produced (or how much it cost) but I wouldn't be surprised if that audio were used on the ride as well. I thought on-board audio was already announced when they announced the ride.

I know it is really early to be thinking about this...but I'm assuming you would have to pay per ride on the roller coaster? I hope it isn't like $30 a person to ride it... -
They could build the hotel in the upper north corner of the undeveloped land! The views don't have to face the unappealing areas! It could face the Serengeti Plain and there could be a whole immersive environment so that you can't really see over and what is unappealing. They could add a separate hotel entrance to the park from there and then you would have first dibs on Kumba! Oh wait...Kumba...it is over by that side of the park and it is really loud...maybe a hotel over there wouldn't be the best idea because of how loud it is...it could cause complaints.
