Russia to build Vekoma GIB in Sochi
Blue Turbo replied to Gutterflower's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^^I was just there in March and it was okay. The water park looked nice and so did the competition pool, but the warm up pool and the general walls and outside looked like they hadn't been cleaned in a while. -
I don't 'get' TTD or Kingda Ka
Blue Turbo replied to etr102's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^While the turn on Xcellerator might not be that thrilling, they do add to the overall experience because they give you a chance to calm down from the excitement of the launch and top hat. They make the brake run not seem as abrupt as with TTD or KK since on those you still have the rush from the launch that the brakes just kill the excitement and they ride feels unfinished as they is no cool down period. -
Craziest Park Weather Experiences
Blue Turbo replied to Mr Stratosphere's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Every time I go to Disney World in December there is some sort of record breaking temperature, either it's really hot or really cold, usually cold. The last time I was there it was in the 50s, which is not supposed to happen in Florida, and rained all day -
Least favourite type of coaster?
Blue Turbo replied to Angle O. Descent's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have to say that I actually quite like stand ups. My least favorite type would have to be Zac spins. This might be because I have never had a good ride on one, but it was so painful and not enjoyable in the least. -
Why do you love TPR?
Blue Turbo replied to ambe_bambe's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I love TPR because it is a place where I can talk to others who share my passion for roller coasters and theme parks. The community is so nice and welcoming. I went to WCB 2013 knowing no one, but I met some amazing people and had a great time thanks to everyone that was there, and especially Robb and Elissa. -
What's the worst station you've been in
Blue Turbo replied to tribar's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It is not the worst, but it is horrible design, Desert Storm at Castles n Coasters in Tempe. There are no gates the lines just turn two corners, and we know how the GP has a hard enough time keeping their hands behind a gate let alone not having anything to stop them but their common sense. -
ChrisHanKwanSivus Gift Exchange 2013!
Blue Turbo replied to Brandy524's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
My gift has arrived at my house but I will not be home for at least another week so that I can open it. -
What if Jurassic Park was real?
Blue Turbo replied to PriestofSyrinx's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The enclosures for the dinosaurs could easily be done, but all the viewing areas need to be extremely GP-proof otherwise there will be lawsuits all over the place. -
^They are probably just like radio stations where they have a list of songs that they are allowed to play and have to continually repeat that list

Probably the slowest line I have waited in was Hades360. The one train operation already causes slow lines, but when I was there they would only dispatch with a completely full train. I waited at least twenty minutes in line and was the second train of the day, plus we waited another five minutes on the ride waiting for the train to fill up.

Least favorite coaster element.
Blue Turbo replied to darklingscribe's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I don't like inclined loops, they are just really weird like a tilted helix that is extremely over banked. It doesn't feel like you are going through an inversion. -
Adventuredome Discussion Thread
Blue Turbo replied to gisco's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I like the asymmetry of the front, having the logo on one side and then the hexagon pattern on the other. Plus, the LEDs look really good. -

That is a very interesting layout -
107 faaaaaast flips on a Topspin !
Blue Turbo replied to GeorgeT's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I would never be able to handle that, I don't even like normal Topspins so this is a definite nope. -
ChrisHanKwanSivus Gift Exchange 2013!
Blue Turbo replied to Brandy524's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Ordered my gift yesterday, should ship to my person within a couple of days. Don't know if mine has arrived as I had it shipped to my house and I have to wait until finals are over to go home. -
Weird Roller Coaster Dreams
Blue Turbo replied to alpengeistdude321's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Can that be a real thing? If a park has a big enough budget, anything could happen. And RMC did say they wanted to work on some longer layouts -
Ad on a rollercoaster lift
Blue Turbo replied to KingRCT3's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
And they wouldn't notice how there is no way for the train to be connected to the rails -
