Playing Batman Arkham games...
EastKoaster replied to Samuel's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'd say six flags has licenseing to a lot more characters from batman than you think, that is assuming all of the cutouts in the lines are licensed. I can't remember all of them off the top of my head but some include Nightwing, Batgirl, Catwoman, Harley Quinn, The Joker, Two Face, Mr Freeze, Poison Ivy, Lex Luther, The Penguin, The Riddler as well as a few others, which is enough when they have licenseing for a couple other DC hero's as well -
IC is deffinetly not the only thing happening this year, their will be a couple of changes/differences, one of which being IC and I'm also guessing a rethemed CAC to Tornado Alley! I would love to see the new entrance for IC to go their along with a flat or two up their, based on the nice theming of SFA Mardi Gras Area it may turn out to be a nice thing!

What are some loud rides and coasters?
EastKoaster replied to JFrombaugh's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Goliath at SFNE would have to take the cake since it got the new train, its to the point where all of the ride ops and crew are wearing the headphones that people wear when using lawnmowers -
Best Drops....
EastKoaster replied to BiCoastal Kid's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
As far as drop towers my 2 favorites are Zumanjaro, and the drop tower at Morey's pier (don't know the manufacturer), for water slides the mat slides on the furthest pier with waterslides at Morey's Piers are insane!!! First off the slide has to be atleast 120 ft. And you take a turn off the platform and you see the beautiful beach and it destracts you from the terror that's about to assume, with the water sprayers and the air time off the slide itself let alone the same speed you catch, its unparalleled on any other slide I've been on! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND RIDING IT! -
Best Drops....
EastKoaster replied to BiCoastal Kid's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
If you could count this, my favorite drop would actually have to go to the GIBs, the first spike in the back row is absolutely insane, especially when the restraint isn't extremely tight! I actually really enjoy SLCs first drops but only in the back row, it gives a crazy whip that I don't feel in most coasters back rows shockingly -

Any news on the GCI that keeps getting pushed back? -
Vekoma Roller Coasters

Best: Goliath SFNE 2013 Worst: Goliath SFNE 2014 Finally decided to give the new train a try for the first time yesterday after refusing to do so all season, and of course I chose my favorite seat from the previous train (last seat) and I felt like my head was going to implode due to the forces when entering the station after the first spike! -
So apparently the park thinks that what ever is coming to the park next year is going to be bigger than SROS was? She also said it would be better than all of the things the park added the last few years combined I'm telling you, I called it from early Junes video chat with the park that in addition to whatever is coming to cyclones spot the park will also be doing a capital expansion including a couple other rides

The pizza place across the street you can get your hand stamped and walk across the street to get 5x the value of what youd spend in the park, in the park the best options are probably Panda Express, JBs across from Goliath, and Mr Six Cafe in Looney Toons Is Nicky's truly good? I have been there, but it was late at night and I was completely wasted, so I can't remember how it was. I have been told that it provides a ton of bang for your buck, however. Being from around New Haven, CT I'm obviously a very picky pizza eater, but compared to the parks pizza its much better, it kindve tastes similar to the pizza you can get at the Costco snack bar, so it deffinetly doesn't taste bad! They also have other foods as well but mostly is just a pizza place.

Their are actually a few other events planned, they are putting a special firework display on in honor of cyclone, as well as a flashback to the 80s event where they will have 80s themed games and whatnot around cyclone, not to mention the last rides on cyclone being given to acers from 10:00-11:00pm on the 20th

You guys are insane and are not picking at things for no reason, Bizarro is still a great coaster, being someone who has been on when it was SROS I can say the new restraints don't provide all that much a different experience, I like the new ones other than the stupid metal panels the welded on the sides of the bars. I can also say Goliath is still a decent coaster and as well mind eraser has improved a lot, rode it in the back last weekend for the first time ever and it was easily the best experience I've had on any suspended coaster, including the batman clones
