Floater or Ejector Air, your preference?
JJLehto replied to Coaster Curt's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Agreed, sustained floater is amaaaazing. Pops of it.....meh Glad someone agrees with me! MForce is obviously not extreme airtime but there's some nice AT on the 2 big hills. -

Ejector obviously! I love some good floater but I have gotten spoiled with El Toro and Skyrush. Nitro used to be so epic now it's just nice... -

JJLehto replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yes. I have vaca days, so if it's a park I'm interested, I'm game for a weekday! It does depend naturally, but overall yes. -
Magic Mountain is far from being the best park in the chain. It has the most coasters, yes, but as for an overall day, not even close. Id say the best is probably Great Adventure. and the sad thing is Great Adventure isn't that great! Though these are some real horror stories I'm hearing from SFMM...better up their game for WCB (yeah I can dream right?)

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
JJLehto replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yeah, B&M are famous for their reliability. Anything can happen but I don't expect a breakdown. I also am stoked for CP this May, esp now that my Aug trip fell through, gotta maximize this! -
Wicked. I was wrong in thinking Outlaw Run may be better, that looks just awesome. That first AT hill < 3 It does seem to really slow down after the roll, but OR also seemed kinda slow in POV, but with people on it we saw how fast it really moved. Also Skyrush and New Texas Giant, none wowed me in POV but was waaay wrong!

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
JJLehto replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yup. I can't make media day, or opening day but I can at least make opening weekend! Never done a wing rider, no idea if it has any real different feel to it but at least this the biggest and fastest one so far. -

12th. Making a big trip of it too: Kennywood, Waldameer, (because when else will I be in Western PA with free time?) and maybe seeing some friends in Cincy...and getting Kings Island and Holiday World crossed off the list -

Yes, thanks so much guys for the Mexico videos! Always wanted a Medusa an Superman POV but only crappy phone ones use to be out there. -
Amusement Ride Breakdown!
JJLehto replied to Mr Stratosphere's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Not a breakdown I guess but once on MForce going up the lift the train came to a near halt for a moment, then proceeded up very slowly. Obviously there's no slow down on MForce and going up the lift at that speed just for it to stop dead (and felt like we may roll back) was the most terrifying moment I've ever had. -
What Ride Have You Ridden the Most?
JJLehto replied to Randomman295's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Hmmmm a coaster at Great Adventure or Hershey surely...something that's been there since I've been going yearly and do multiple times so probably Great Bear or Nitro -
