Photo TR: Zo's First Visit to BGW and KD
RideofSteel replied to The Great Zo's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Great pictures! I really enjoyed your PTR! -
Hey guys! This morning when I tried to come to your site my browser blocked it giving a weird "phishing" warning. It has never happened before, and I didn't have a problem coming on tonight. I know this site is perfectly legit so I just wanted to bring this to your attention. I will let you know if it happens again. Thanks!

July 4th / Independence Day crowds
RideofSteel replied to larrygator's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
SF Great Adventure 11-6 Most of the major coasters had waits less than half an hour. Kingda Ka was closed part of the day, and both sides of Rolling Thunder were closed the whole time. I think the water park was packed... The high today hit 92°! -
You could always call him or ask him on his FB account as himself. He ended up answering on ebay. He claimed he meant new by the phone was never activated. But in the description he clearly said, "new never used or activated". I responded with his phone number which was active on the device and he made up some B.S. about how he bought it from someone who claimed it was new and never powered it on...Which wouldn't make sense because his fb was on there. He offered a ten dollar refund... But it's unacceptable. Or as he said "non science".

Last night I got to the park at 6:00 despite the rain. The parking lot was emptying out. Green Lantern and Superman were both running one train but they only had a two-three train wait. Green Lantern was running very well. I never had such a good ride on it. There was all kinds of weird airtime, and no headbanging. Next we rode El Toro 3x. It was running two trains with a wait only for front row. After we hit Rolling Thunder. For some reason they still had two trains running during the rain... Aren't the skids not reliable when wet? Last we finished off with two rides on Nitro. Nitro was still running 3 trains in the rain even though there was an empty station. The rain really hurt, but it was so worth it. The ride was very smooth as usual.

Best coaster ride when raining

El Toro was insane in the rain yesterday! I never had so much airtime on that ride. -
The "new" phone I bought on ebay is actually used. And the seller is ignoring my messages. All of his old stuff is on it. His phone number, the fb account, pictures. And worst of all, the phone has a god awful smell of smoke.

What is your next park?
RideofSteel replied to onewheeled999's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Most likely Six Flags America on Sunday... Or possibly Great Adventure. -

Cool Sounding Rides
RideofSteel replied to GoBears's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The click-click of the old wooden coasters anti-rollback is awesome. I also thought the sound Bombora's lift made was funny. Oh, and I like the screech of some LIM coasters.
