Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread
WildStangAlex replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think the closest I have been to traditional was at Kennywood. The park was very clean, the rides well-maintained, the staff friendly, and real knowledgeable, and the food was not only great, but FAIRLY priced. I wish I lived closer to Kennywood. Oh well, Indiana Beach and SFGAm are what I've got! -

Cowabunga Bay waterpark
WildStangAlex replied to montezooma's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I am going to have to agree with everybody else. This looks incredible. It is so awesome that you were able to take something you like and share it with people over 2,000 miles away. Water play structures are rapidly gaining popularity, and like with your project, can now be considered as a stand alone park. Congratulations man, and I can't wait to see this place under operation! -
Photo TR: Hanno's start to the 2009 coaster season

Legoland: Germany looks incredible. I love the theming of EVERYTHING, and there are so many rides, especially a lot of water rides. That Bionicle ride looks intriguing. I'm glad you are able to share these pictures with us! -
Mark Shapiro on CBS News

On a per-park basis, some of Six Flags parks are really well managed, have a great collection of rides, and have high attendance. Other parks are slow at operations, have only cloned rides and don't attract very many people. Perhaps Six Flags needs to consider selling some of their slower parks. Although, in this market, it seems that that would be a terrible option. Overall though, I know they'll find a way of continuing to provide us with fun for years to come! -
Best and Lamest Coaster "Ending"
WildStangAlex replied to Teddymonster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
For good endings, this one is often overlooked, V2 at SFGAm, because of the unexpected brakes on the straight spike. Other good endings are definitely the Voyage for the non-stop fun, Ravine Flyer II for the 90* banking, Flight of Fear for the final corkscrew right before the brakes, and WHIZZER for the Helix of Fun! Lame endings include Cedar Creek Mine Ride (I think I slept), Superman Ultimate Flight, a REALLY slow flat spin, and finally DARK KNIGHT, the first half of the ride was really awesomely themed, had surprises, and was really entertaining. The only theming in the second half of the ride was a flash bulb on the camera! -

^ Yeah not only does Kalahari have a flow rider, they have 2! Being that it is the biggest indoor waterpark in North America, there are so many things to do. Try to get there sometime for sure!
