West Coast Bash 2015!
DJCallDubstep replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Found it! Thanks for the reply! My buddy and I are so excited. I say this every year in person for WCB, and I'll continue saying it. Thank YOU Robb for making this all possible. No matter the issues you come across regarding certain attendees for your event, you push through and continue to deliver. WCB has a place in all our hearts; a time of year worth anxiously waiting for. See you Sunday! -

Anyone know of the specific backstage tour for Knott's this year? I'm sure a maze is already in there, but maybe a Voyage walkthrough?! -
TPR's Monday Fun Emails
DJCallDubstep replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I do read the Monday emails. It's very convenient for me because I don't find much time to search the forums on my own. Direct links with a quick headline as to what it is proves to be a better method for me. Thank you. -
Great update Gregg! In all seriously though, they're going to lose a lot of money by not having this thing open already. As long as it opens in the summer, it should be good, but with all the other stuff still dragging, time really is money. I still can't believe they had a goal for Spring. I haven't been since before Green Lantern came out. Just went last week and it was a relatively busy day. Not kidding, EVERYTHING was running one train. Not to mention the constant ad's everywhere. Viper had a nice hair gel advertisement all across one train. A TV monitor is in almost all of the queues now with cartoons and large amounts of ad's! Is this what SFMM has come too? Do they really need the money this bad? I really do hope Full Throttle helps. I'm stoked for it! It's SFMM's first original ride in a while, given Green Lantern is Insane in Sweden and Lex Luthor was just a drop ride, although record breaking . Overall, this ride needs to hurry up.

Little late, but I had a blast at the shoot as well. Walked the park a good hour before it opened and had myself quite the amount of stares, especially walking by the entrance with little eager children glaring at me in awe, LOL! I can't thank Robb enough for giving us the opportunity to do this. It was a real treat, and free park admission afterwards couldn't have been better. I did all the large attractions within the first 45 minutes the park was open. This was the true way to beat the crowds. As for the shoot itself, I wish I knew when they were airing before hand. If you who were there remember the segments every hour from 5:20 to 8:20, those were when they actually went live! I honestly thought they were recording for a later! Who has the TV on KTLA at 5AM? Plus, the signs of stress and frustration on the anchorwoman were hilarious! As for the rides, I loved Coast Rider and the scenery surrounding it. It involves Riptide and Boomerang in for the "Boardwalk" theme and that's an experience on it's own; better than anything you'd get from the Santa Monica Pier, if we're comparing boardwalks. I didn't seem to mind Pacific Scramblers during the repetitive cycle, but I started feeling a little nauseous on Surfside Gliders on the five minutes we were on it. Saw some other TPR members enjoying it, but I did NOT go back to that one on the next two film cycles. Probably just me, but man! I'm not fond of unpredictability on attractions. I knew what Pacific Scramblers was doing and as long as I can see the track in front of me on coasters, I'm fine, but on Surfside Gliders, although in somewhat controls of my movements, it was like dangling on a park tire swing (kind of). Overall, this was awesome, and I REALLY HOPE I can make it to West Coast Bash! I'm starting college next year, and if the two days land during the week like Robb was proposing, I might not make it. Once again, thanks for the experience Robb! You rock, dude.
