Carowinds Discussion Thread
Angle O. Descent replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I personally prefer I305 over MF, but definitely prefer any Intamin giga over a B&M giga like Leviathan (totally non-biased opinion, considering CW is my home park). Although I have to agree with Benner, after seeing Shambhala on video, that B&M does have potential to make a top-notch giga, and could be just as welcome at Carowinds -

I saw Brad Paisley with Lee Brice at Darien Lake back in July... I'm not a fan of country music, but those guys put on a hell of a show (and you Americans definitely know how to tailgate party)

^ My apologies, I always thought "dark ride" implied non-coaster. Now I know, thank you -
The "Pleasant/Unpleasant Surprise" Thread
Angle O. Descent replied to cfc's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Some more recent ones: Pleasant: - Hydra The Revenge - very smooth and maintains momentum throughout - Thunderhawk - one of the better Cedar Fair woodies I've been on - Steel Dragon (Waldameer) - every spinning car coaster should be like this one! Unpleasant: - Ravine Flyer II - I expected this to be at the top of my list, but fell a bit short - Skyrush - same as above - Black Diamond - this reminded me more of a dark ride than a roller coaster -
Roughest coaster
Angle O. Descent replied to jbuck's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^ Where were you sitting on Gutbuster? I find it's brutal in the back seat, but much smoother in the front. Here's a few others: - Flight deck (CW) - Anaconda (KD) - Riddler's Revenge / Mantis -

Best Theme Park Food
Angle O. Descent replied to ChrisZer0's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Just an update: - Knoebels: pickle on a stick... why does this not exist anywhere else??? Greatest thing ever! - SFNJ: the boneless wings by El Toro aren't so bad - Knott's: fried chicken... n'uff said - Disney's CA: chili in a bread bowl - CW: apple cinnamon funnel cake -
Unnecessary Queuing Lines
Angle O. Descent replied to palmerleeberry's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Flight Deck (previously Top Gun) at CW opened with a crazy long queue line (up to a 2 hour wait), even playing the movie on the TV monitors when it was still owned by Paramount. In today's world though, the lines are short and becomes an unfortunate waste of space -
Most Intense Schwarzkopf Coaster?

I second this one, I think it was originally spec'd at 6Gs?! -

Weird Roller Coaster Dreams
Angle O. Descent replied to alpengeistdude321's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I had one in a fictional park (I think it was meant to be CP) where a top thrill like ride launches 300 feet above the ground and there was a giant water park down below, really neat visual
