The "Oh Sh*^" moments vs. a good ride
gerstlaueringvar replied to Skramp's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
definitely the two seconds before the catch car releases the drop car on a drop tower. Feels like forever! I don't know if the Larson/ARM towers give more or less oh sh!t feeling though. Mr. Freeze is a big surprise, the launch is so gentle that I didn't expect the positive G force to be that much! It's like California Sleepin's launch followed by a loop on Batman clone. Facing the ground 200ft up is also pretty intimidating. -

Screaminkid2005's 2013 Coaster Adventures!

Nice TR, definitely brought back some memory and pain that would last for the rest of my life I only saw the SCAD tower, bungee jumping sounds really fun but I didn't know where it is -Have you been to either park before? Ouch, both -Do you have any horror stories from either? Hades360 still haunts me in my dream -What do you think the parks could do to attract more of an audience? Burn them to the ground and build a shopping mall with some high quality indoor coasters. -Hades 360, thumbs up or thumbs down? My thumbs were shaken off on it so I guess thumbs down. -Cyclops, was it everything you thought it would be, or do you think it's overrated? No, it can be much much crazier! People made it sounds like the most insane coaster ever but I think it's just because of the buzz bar. Those three drops are amazing but not exactly "hold on for dear life" crazy. -What are your thoughts on Avalanche? The turns can use some serious retracting but there are some pretty sweet airtime nothing mind blowing though. -

Best proposal ever! Congratulations to Nicole and Jeremiah! Nothing is more romantic than proposing at the top of a Star Flyer at a the most beautiful park in the most beautiful city! September daily video has been great, my favorite is also Thad's Lynet comment! -

Given the scale of that area, I would guess a Mack spinner or a small launched Coaster like Manta. -
Amazing photos of Karacho I always think Tripsdrill is kind of like the Europa Park for Gerstlauer. Haven't experienced a Gerstlauer dive loop yet but I think it gives some strong airtime during the upward twist, kind of like how RMC put unexpected airtime on the twists.

I've heard the park owner rode both El Toro and Balder then asked Intamin to combine both of them into one. -
