Pretty pumped for this... If past rides, like the mega lite, are what European/Asian parks can do when combining. With great, but some may argue, inconsistent, manufacturers like Intamin, I can't wait to see what RMC can do.... Maybe the partnership with Vekoma might also mean, A: if they merge, Vekoma might not suck lol B: Since Vekoma makes mostly steel coasters, we might end up seeing RMC's first *full* steel coaster out of this partnership? Just my two cents.. Take it how you will.

Interesting. I've always found there were some great intenseents on Backlot, so imagine what the drifting would be like. -
You Know You Game Too Much When...
dropzonefan replied to dropzonefan's topic in Random, Random, Random
When you see a commercial for Xbox, and say "how am I not dead?... I just saw my whole life flashing before my eyes!" -
Considering a batman clone (Le Vampire, La Ronde), is #1 on my top 5 steel coAsters, and all the new B&Ms I've ridden barely make the list, I'd say yes. For me, forces pretty much are the main way I judge a ride... Not forceful, no good. Hope with stuff like Banchee @ KI, they might make a comeback.

Your First Schwarzkopf Coaster?

Mindbender, Galaxyland, Edmonton, Alberta. The most forceful coaster I have ever been on. And #2 on my top five steel coasters. -

You know you game too much when you skip school to play Xbox/Playstation/PC, to buy a game on launch day, or both. -

If after hearing the news of the massive storm that struck the Phillipines, called your friend to make sure they were okay, then, as soon as they Tell you they've survived, ask them if Enchanted Kingdom is still standing. -
What Rides Scares the Crud Out Of You?

I've heard many people mention ARM/Larson drop towers. What about the Fabri versions?.. They look even crazier. -

Lookalike a very interesting ride. I absolutely love the chance zipper, so I'm sure I'd love this if I ever got the chance to ride one. Does anybody know of a POV OF THE RIDE? All I know of is footage of a radar from about 14 years ago. -
You know you game too much when you hear a helecopter outside and the first thing you think is "Enemy chopper inbound!"

^I totally understand how lapbars can greatly improve a rough ride, but in some cases, it can be just as painful due to your head bouncing around the headrest... Personally, if a ride'a rough, it's rough, lapbars or OTSRs. As to my previous post, I was wondering how smooth their new suff like YOLOCoaster and Superman SFDK are.

Then it would DIE!! What if RMC built a full steel coaster ?

Djurs Sommerland Discussion Thread
dropzonefan replied to Nosferatu's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
While I think the whole Family Launcher idea is cool. I've noticed that the amount of "intense" rides being builtrecently has decreased.. Other than RMC, I've noticed that many manufacturers have moved more to the family market. Anyone know when the worldwide ride intensity drought will end? -

dropzonefan replied to PCW_Nut's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Lol. Not guilty, but can totally understand why someone would do it. Some expertly filmed POVs, such as the ones here on TPR, can really make you feel like you're there on the ride. -

If you know where the one good TOGO stand up is, with awesome ejector air that doesn't hurt your gonads... Hint, it's located somewhere in Canada.
