Found this video of Baynum Painting painting TTD, don't think anyone has posted it, if you have, I apologize. Interesting on what they have to do at the higher heights. -

Wow, they aren't wasting any time getting that up! I was thinking about taking my spring break trip to Germany but looks like I'm going to have to wait. Really look forward to getting over there some day! -

Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
PVA62 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It's fun but I avoid it now. It gives me a headache and it's slow operations are a pain. I can see people freaking themselves out thinking the restraints might come open and you'd fall. It is fun though, I enjoy the flying coasters. I prefer B&M to the Vekomas though. -

^That was a wish stated by the maintenance crews 1:18. So i'm sure that it could happen but it's not for sure. -
Your guilty pleasure ride
PVA62 replied to DanTheBooker's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I can see why that's the last of its kind... it looks like a Kanga Bounce that hurts like hell! It's been years since I've been to the park so I can't say what condition it's in but it never hurt in the past. -

The biggest testament to Cedar Point's lineup is that people don't even mention Magnum, a Hypercoaster that's really, really good. This is the only park anywhere with an extra Hypercoaster nobody remembers is there. Carowinds? lol I wouldn't say Intimidator is forgotten about. They have 3 main rides, F325, I232, and Afterburn, that's it in my opinion. It may seem like Intimidator is an after thought this year, but that's what happens when you open up a giga. I honestly forgot about it until I drove up...and then after waiting an hour for it I was really wishing I never remembered it. At least Behemoth is really good (and better than Leviathan IMO). Valravn does look huge against the shore like that. Looking forward to more pictures! I agree about Intimadator, not a fan of it and my least favorite B&M hyper. I'll take Magnum over it any day. -

OR...like every other coaster with an unbanked turn after the station. Seriously, this isn't a new thing. -

I guess I'm in the minority here. I can't stand the Vekoma flyers, they always give me a headache. I avoid it when I'm there. -

What Social Media do you use the most?
PVA62 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
1) Twitter 2) Facebook 3) Snapchat 4) YouTube 5) Instagram I rarely post anything anymore but am a big lurker. I like and favorite posts all the time on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. I will re-tweet a lot on Twitter but I won't share much on Facebook. I do miss your TPR Snapchats but I understand that takes a lot of work and time updating what you're doing at the moment. -
