With all the talk about the charm the park has, I can't wait to go there next month.

By the way, I figured out what tiles are.

I agree. Unfortunately there are always games won or lost by calls or non-calls of the officials.

I made the same mistake when I visited this year and only allotted 4 hours for this park. Next time we'll stay all day.

This was awesome! The science geek in me really enjoyed the report. I am still thinking about planning a trip to FL when there is going to be a launch so I can enjoy it with my daughter.

Great pics! I look forward to more. Sally Corp would be one of my favorite booths, too.

Even though I don't have enough vacation time left for 2014, I still just checked out the Mini New Hotness tour information just in case I could work something out.

Great TR with lots of great pictures! Thank you for sharing.

Since I'm a newbie here (only level 10), if someone can let me know what you mean by 'tile tapping' it would be appreciated. I have about a half dozen TPR members as my friends in the game so far and I am happy to help in any way while I work my way up the levels.

This looks awesome! How ironic is it that my wife and I were discussing last night that we need to plan a trip to Germany.

What a game last night. The Panthers pulled it off. I've been thinking since preseason that they have a good chance of making the playoffs this year and they are delivering.

This looks like a fun ride! I haven't made it to Darien Lake, yet, but it is planned within the next few years.

What was your first Boomerang? - Carolina Cobra (Carowinds) SLC? - Mind Eraser (SFA) Flying Dutchman? Nighthawk (Carowinds) Roller Skater? - Barnstormer (WDW) Others? - SFC - Flying Ace Aerial Chase (Carowinds)

^that was pretty awesome. I literally loled at that when I saw it.

While going through some old photos I came across this of my brother-in-law in the mid 1960s. How would you like to have this in your back yard?

After looking through more photos, we found out that my wife went to Elitch Gardens around 1977-1978 when she lived in Colorado for a year. Here is a shot she took apparently from a Ferris Wheel and you can see Mr. Twister in the background. Elitch Gardens circa 1977/8

I love this thread! There is so much great content in it. I was brought back to my childhood with Cascade Park since I grew up near there. I was last there in the late 70s but unfortunately did not ride Comet. After going through some old pictures I have not been able to find anything to share. Apparently my parents didn't take pictures at or of amusement parks.

That is the big problem I have with NightHawk, most of the time is spent on your back instead of 'flying.' From what I remember of FireHawk, at least we were 'flying' more. None of them have particularly smooth rides which is awesome when riding on your back.

US Thrill Rides announced this concept within the past year or two. That's when I remember seeing it. www.usthrillrides.com/ The specifics on the Polercoaster can be found here: www.usthrillrides.com/products/polercoaster/ I see the article mentions utilizing third party companies to help make the ride:

I finally downloaded and started playing the game. Feel free to add me - arbyrocks. I'm only at level 6 so far.

Thanks! I'm glad you all enjoyed it. I can't wait to go back.

Yeah, it looks unnerving and intriguing at the same time. I love it when manufacturers think outside of the box. This will really make a statement in a water park.

When I first saw the concept art for this I was hoping someone would build one. I am a fan of unique coasters so I like to see companies thinking outside of the box. I hope it turns out to be a fun ride. It will be at the top of my list to head to GA and try this out once it opens.
