Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
rcjp replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^You know, what I've wondered plenty of times is what if coasters had car-like seatbelts (but with tightening, of course). That would be interesting. -
Favorite Batman Themed Rollercoaster
rcjp replied to DarkRideNick's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Agree. Riding one just a week ago reminded me of how good they are. -

A week ago: stunt fall. When was the last time you didn't enjoy a ride everyone likes?

Poll : Wicked Cyclone or Twisted Colossus
rcjp replied to willthegolfer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Initially I said WC but wasn't quite sure. However, after seeing the POV I'm more certain about my answer. Of course, this is only what I think the rides will be and TC sure looks awesome too, but so far I like the look of WC better. -
New Wanda Parks in China.

Oh finally. Wasn't this ride originally planned for this year? At least that's what RCDB says. -

A week ago when I went to Parque Warner I'm pretty sure I heard an ride op on superman saying that the back went faster than the front. I wonder how the back car doesn't finish ahead of the others if that's the case -
What was your first B&M Coaster?

April When was the last time you experienced airtime?

Drachen Fire was to be made by B&M, but Busch went with Arrow to build the coaster instead. The layout design for Drachen Fire was inspired by B&M. Frankly I think that Drachen Fire would have been a better coaster and still around if it was build by B&M instead of Arrow. So in other words Drachen Fire was not a B&M coaster! My brain just hatched a great idea for BGW's future..... Drachen Fire rebuilt as a B&M Wing Coaster...Complete with a keyhole element through the cutback and the diving corkscrew in place. Der Drache Kehrt or The Dragon Returns..... I would rather see it with floorless trains. Those would allow for a closer from the original layout.

Really like this shot. Mantis might not be a great ride but I love the way it looks -

^&^^ Thanks! The abismo photos do look nice as the ride (in certain angles) is very photogenic. Also among my favourites -

^Yes indeed the Basque Country was badly hurt in the war due to all those political reasons and today those different views (comparing it to most of the rest of Spain) are still clear. I didn't really know what to expect from the region and I was pleasantly surprised partly due to the great landscapes. Thanks. No I actually went last Saturday to the park. I'm sorry but as I said in the report I spent very little time there and it was mainly to take a break from the coasters and especially heat. The impression I got was good considering the price as I thought it was nicely themed (although I didn't pay that much attention). Whether you should buy it or not depends on your priorities. For me it was obviously nice but I'm not sure if I would have done it if I was alone as I'm all about the coasters but for a family maybe it's a good option. The attractions were okay but I didn't try them all (just the wave pool and the two slides: green and blue). On top of that I have little water park experience as once more I'm all coasters but I definitely had a nice time and don't think it is expensive. If I return soon (or spend more than one day at the park) I might spend some more time there but for now I'm afraid that's all I have to say. -

Game: Careful What You Wish For

Granted. They would use Magnum XL's restraints. I wish B&M would go for lap bars on their looping coasters. -
Last Sunday. When was the last time you rode your least favourite coaster?

Wow it's great how you went all the way from Germany to work at Cedar point as you wanted! It must be a fun experience I would one day like to have myself. -
You Might Be A Coaster Nerd If....

^Haha I don't watch it. But when I first heard a friend mentioning it I though: Arrow..... Dynamics?
