Seems like you had a day with very small crowds. I envy you so much for getting almost no waits.

Worst Intamin: Definitely ALL Intamin Zac-Spins. They are pointless and hurt like hell. Worst B/M: All the B/M Coasters that I have been on are pretty nice. Worst GCI: Roar at SFA. The ride makes your head hurt and your neck ache in pain. ALL BECAUSE OF THE FREAKING Pennsylvania Toboggan Company trains!!!

^You are correct about the coaster, but what about the funding for the entertainment district, complete with a water park, an amphitheater, a baseball stadium? The baseball stadium and amphitheater would cost a big fortune.

Yeah. But I dont think they have all the resources for all the attractions they plan to build.

"Developers hope an empty, heavily wooded plot of land in New Caney will transform into a thriving entertainment district by 2015- complete with a theme park, water park and a new dining and music scene and more elaborate attractions. Construction will begin on the Grand Texas Theme Park in October to be ready for a grand opening in March 2015 if all goes according to plan, said Monty Galland, a pre-development manager for the project. Developers and officials in Montgomery County will close by the end of April on land on State Highway 242 and U.S. Highway 59, about 15 miles from the Woodlands and 10 miles north of Kingwood. The cost of the water park, theme park, amphitheater and paintball arena, which will be supported by Galland's group, will cost $119 million. The other developments, which include restaurant and hotel areas, will add $95 million to the overall cost. The project was discussed at a Feb. 14 board meeting of the East Montgomery County Improvement District. Developers project first year attendance to be around 665,000 to eventually reach about 1.8 million after several years. "It's designed to focus on the residents of Houston," Galland said. "There is no large-scale park north of the Interstate 10 freeway. ... We really feel like there is a void in this area." Galland said the idea is larger than a theme park and conceives of an entertainment district, complete with a water park, an amphitheater, a baseball stadium and a shopping and dining area." http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/New-Houston-area-theme-park-under-development-4293888.php supposedly, this park will open in 2015 but I can bet that it wont.

Flight Deck at CGA. It broke down on a slow day. Everybody in line left. I remained and once they got it running moments after and tested, I was the only one on the train.

Is thunder dolphin closed for good?

Man, Gate Keeper seems awesome. Wish I could ride it this summer.

Anyone know which seat for Demon at CGA? It feels like you got boxed by a boxer after riding.

Wouldn't it be awesome if you guys could visit abandoned creepy Nara Dreamland?

^ Yes. Like Viper at SFMM.

All of the oldies made by Arrow Dynamics are pretty rough. Any idea which seat is the best or reduces head-banging?

Roar at SFDK. It was a much wilder ride with some rare spots of ejector air.

Good Luck in Fuji-Q! Hopefully there will be less people there.

I bet that looping coaster is a Chinese knockoff. Those rides DONT seems safe at all. But a credit is a credit.

I was searching around and I think I found this photo of Turbine's new train. NOT SURE. CAN SOMEBODY CONFIRM?

Will there be a Taiwan Tour next year Robb? Every time I see this TR, I want to see Taiwan's parks even more.

Does Gravity Max happen to break down alot? I mean its the only one in the world. VERY Unique. I definitely want to ride that one day. Glad to hear about a Vekoma thats smooth.

I wonder what happens if the brakes failed..................

^^ As would I. Especially if its a knockoff SLC that is so common in China these days.

What is a skyscaper ride? Is it one of those rides with two long arms with carts on the end that rotate vertically??

I would certainly like to go to Taiwan to ride Gravity Max. The one and only tilt coaster in the world. UNFORTUNATELY, it is a Vekoma, a sure sign of quality.....

Hopefully, the park shall survive.

Is the big air coaster Vekoma's only one of the model? Also, are you guys going to ride Gravity Max?

I was wondering if some Vekoma's are rougher than others though they are all horrible headbangers. Apparently, I believe some are. The worst ever vekoma is probably Ninja At SFOG. Seriously, how can a coaster be so photogenic yet almost unridable?
