  5. Gatekeeper looks awesome. *Tries to convince parents to go on a first time trip to cedar point* Joshua"I really wanna go to Cedar Point"Junker
  6. Although there becoming more common B&M splashdown rode one of these my self and zforce/flashback anyone?
  7. I agree with you on everything except the Zach spins. I don't see ki getting a zac spins because of its HORRIBLE capacity. What we need is a B&M giga or a new woodie. With that we need a action zone expansion. Not just one coaster.
  8. I defend Robb but (off topic starts here) i think he should film at parks that don't even have POV's from him id love to hear "twisty" on Diamondback and "crap" on the beast! I only see a beast thing and a Sob thing on kings island(not that i don't appreciate for bringing SoB off ride) but i would like him to film coasters at KI and other Cedar Fair Parks.
  9. You know what i would like? For robb to go to kings island and film rides their i havent seen any videos of KI on TPR's youtube. Just a suggestion.
  10. Well we all know Ki is getting a new expansion because they dont just remove 2 major thrill rides and 1 minor thrill for nothing. Or it could turn into a KK were they remove stuff and dont put anything in its place. I agree with you but flight deck isnt near its end yet (proably around 5 to 10 years more) because it was the last arrow suspended built at 1993. Most suspended coasters last a good 25 years or more so i dont see the end yet. And also the contributing factor to Flight DecKs decline of popularity is SoB closed and got demolished in 2009 so theirs nothing back their to make corwds go back their.
  11. Invertigo is very intense in the front (almost TOO intense). But if you want it intense but not that intense i would try the middle. Firehawk is good in the front but IMO i like the back best. Diamondback is great in the front but the back is so intense i almost always go their. The Beast is great as some people said in the middle of the back car. But an alternative is the front seat(its not that rough even though its on a wheel) Vortex is great in 5th car 1st row it makes it a whole better ride. But another alternative is the back car.
  12. Unlike some other advice here Flight Deck is a must ride! While it may be short it packs one heck of a punch. And it almost never has a line except on busy days (begining of the season, Saturdays.) And you could reride it if any seat on the train is opeb. Me personally do not get a Fast lane because i got a gold pass and i visit their alot. Diamondback is an excellent b&m hyper. The Beast is coool as long as you dont ride a wheel seat in the back and its not retracked that year. FoF is a cool launched coaster but its one of the parks main attractions so it might have long lines. Firehawk is a Capacity nightmare the max youll wait on the busiest days are 3 hours if it breaks down which i does a lot. but its wqorth the wait to and hour and a half.
  13. i found something on Kings Island facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/visitkingsisland/posts/10151546911513368 this person asked if thunder alley was being retired and KI has confirmed it is. So i geuss where not seeing thunder alley again so at least i got to ride it.
  14. banked turns on suspeneded coasters(im looking straight at you rct2, rct3)!
  15. Chang was closed when the park was still operating and moved to Six Flags Great Adventure as Green Lantern. Ive heard the ride their removing is Greased Lightnin'. I hope this park reopens.
  16. www.wfpl.org/post/gov-steve-beshear-excited-about-progress-kentucky-kingdom-lease-deal looks like this may not be a busted deal after all.
  17. thee longest ive waited is 2 and a half hours on firehawk last year. It was orignally 90 minutes but then it got broke down/somebody lost a loose article. so it became 2 and a half hours. My dad has waited about 5 hours for the beast before and he said the line went all the way back to the effiel tower . he also waited 2 hours to get on vortex opening year. The maxinum ill accept is 2 hours at most but when i dont feel like waiting the maxinum ill wait is 50 minutes.
  18. Im surprised nobody has mention vortex hangtime in the corkscrews your upside-down for like 3 seconds and it only goes like 20 mph their and it makes you feel like a washmachine rag doll. Also the hangtime on Diamondback going up the second hill is awesome . Does the Beast lift hill count cause it only goes like 2 mph and at the top you have hangtime for like 6 seconds.
  19. As mentioned before the "Black Sunday" incident(s) 3 people got killed in one day and 2 incidents happened in one day what are the odds of that? Also the SoB accident was pretty bad considering 30 people got injured and it showed how the CBS Corp Paramount Parks did not upkeep their rides. I know it was under Cedar Fair (for only 3 weeks!) at the time but by the time cedar fair came in the struture was already detoriating so thats why i put the blame on Cbs Paramount. Also i seem to recall a 2001 accident on the beast that the train did not stop completely and collided after the rain made the brakes not work and injured like 31 people. This is what cause the beast to get the dreaded magnetic trim brakes and brakes. BTW people always say that the kentucky kingdom acident happened on Drop Zone at KI(yes i still call it that)makes me laugh
  20. As you got rid of arachnophobia boohoo but it's not really worth it since you can't build steep drops in rct2 it was a lot better in rct 1 but okay
