The Official TPR Video Thread!

Looks awesome! Not sure if I'm brave enough to ride it though... I normally can't be scared by anything but this is probably a bit too much. -

Looks like a very good park! I've always think their coaster collection is pretty good with one exception. Even Intamin trains cannot save a horrible RCCA -
I always think electronics with bigger screens are much easier to break. iPad Air looks like you can crack the screen if you just apply a little pressure. I don't want to worry about that on my phone!

Worst Coaster Experience
gerstlaueringvar replied to airforcekid's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I didn't take the outside seat but I took the seat right next to where you sit. It was perfectly smooth with some snappy transitions that even Batman clone's Corkscrews get more intense. It was not Maverick smooth but definitely better than SLC. Maybe the wheel in which your seat is right below was suffering from some issue? -
^ That's one of the reasons why I don't like the size increase of iPhone 6. I think iPhone 5 has the perfect shape if it can be even thinner.

Same here, but Apple Watch looks so good that I want to wear watch again. Wish that thing is water proof though. Apple is making people even harder to budget and harder to concentrate on meeting/classes. I wish iPhone 6 has edges like iPhone 5 and keep the lock/unlock button at the upper right because now it is getting kind of like Android phones.

That announcement just now, wow! Can't wait to use Apple Pay and Apple Watch! What do you think of the new Apple products? Q-Bot can combine with Apple Watch perfectly!

The "Say Something Random" Thread

Why am I excited for the iPhone announcement??? Even though that's not even close to how excited I was for Six Flags announcement. I usually don't care about the electronics at all -

Great TRs! It's very interesting to see nerd shots of that super old coaster from like a million years ago -
Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread

And to add the restraints on MegaLites are far more comfortable than on SkyRush. I know some people don't complain about the pain on SkyRush, but no I've heard few complaints about pain from MegaLites. Also, some fatties have trouble fitting into MegaLites. Mega-Lits are pretty rough on people's waist if they don't know about the layout. Some first riders complain about the transitions being way too sudden. People complain about the position of the lap bar, if Intamin change the steel pipe to a bit shorter, I think that can be solved. But maybe in reality this is far more complicated than I thought. -
Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
gerstlaueringvar replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
1. "Maybe they were trying to take down Colossus's lift hill by burning it" 2. "I think they planned to burn it down to draw attention, it's LA we are talking about" 3. "I saw that coming, told you wooden coasters are not safe" -

This park looks so beautiful! One of the things I regret the most was watching Fluch von Novgorod's POV to figure out the layout. I don't think those surprises will get me -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
gerstlaueringvar replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I don't think they really give a sh!t. A stupid awards ceremony isn't going to affect what they add to the park in the future. I think they cares. The huge banner at the resort entrance next to Magnum shows it. If no other award makes them the best amusement park in the world, they might lose some attention on their advertisements. GP love gimmicks and CP used gimmicks pretty well. -
Photo TR: Mini New Hotness/East Coast Trip
gerstlaueringvar replied to cfc's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Great photos! It's really surprising to hear Holiday World giving ERT. I thought Voyage was using 7 car trains When did they remove a car? -
The video of it is all over the internet in China Haven't seen a foreign coaster getting that much attention before. On one hand I'm happy that my favorite Six Flags park is getting so much attention, on the other hand I think this is way too overhyped. Sure it will be fun but TC and WC will definitely be better rides.

Suddenly realized my 150th is the knock-off SkyLoop
