^Exactly. With B&M having gone soft, and no parks in North America buying Intamin coasters these days, RMC could definitely fill a huge void.

^Well, if their new track is going to be anything like B&M, that's a good thing... Can't wait to see a coaster company that makes rides as smooth as b&m, but also pushes the boundaries/comes up with new concepts. Plus, hasn't most of the gimmicks surrounding lightning rod come from Dollywood's marketing staff, not RMC's?... In my opinion, a launched woodie (fastest or not) is pretty cool, so who cares if the PR team hyped it up a bit too much; it's something worth getting excited about, and will certainly draw crowds to the park when it opens.

Found this great video on YouTube: If Skyhawk's lighting package is anywhere near this impressive, that area of the park will look incredible, with windseeker on one side of the midway, and Skyhawk on the other.

I'd imagine if you're phones in a zipped/buttoned/sealed pocket, they'd let you... However, be careful where you store it. P This was a friend's phone after it had been in their pocket on a coaster last year.

^Im pretty sure it's been closed for a while now. As for other parks in the GTA, been pretty curious to see how wild water kingdom turns out. Apparently there making some pretty big renovations.

As a person who's worn glasses their whole life, I can say uve never run into any trouble in regards to bringing my glasses to parks. Just make sure to bring a strap.

^^My thoughts exactly. I actually find TPR's channel to have a nice ending sequence. Way better than those channels where the youtuber is yelling in your face, "CLICK HERE TO SUBSCRIBE... MAKE SURE TO LIKE AND COMMENT DOWN BELOW!" Etc.

^Apparently the ride gives some decent airtime too.

^Ok.. Makes sense now... Gravator looks better than the original flat ride I thought it was... The chance falling star/rainbow rides look great, but never had an opportunity to try one until now.

Since when are we getting the Rush street flyer from SFSTL?. I thought we were only getting 2 flats, not 3.

^Isnt that basically Coney Island? Everything there is Zamperla stuff.

^Exactly... The closest thing in my region to a "tour" that's offered is aims day bus trip to my home park (about a 2.5 hour drive). If I wanted to just do a 3 park trip (i.e. CW, Darian Lake, CP), that'd take a ton of planning compared to just signing up for a tour that hits those 3 parks.

OMG YES!!! It's Confirmed!! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tjOJlg0XS-0 ATTACK ON TITAN LAND coming to Universal Studios Japan! Full scale AOT themed land (a-la Harry Potter @ USF).

^Well, if Skyrider wasn't torn down/construction started on project 2017 near that area, I'd be pretty sure one of the woodies would be RMC'd. At least wild beast is ok in the front row (was tolerable when I last rode it, and gave better airtime than Minebuster.

If you really want a rough/bumpy ride on an older woodie, feel free to make the trek up to Toronto... The Wild Beast's layout is *somewhat* similar to the cyclone, and you'll be guaranteed walk-ons all day because nobody else wants to ride it (all the GP care about in that section of the park is the boomerang and the new, somewhat forceless, B&M... No love for the newly retracked woodie and the drop tower).

Great job! That has to be the greatest commercial for a kiddie ride I've ever seen!

^I definitely could see the packing up the coasters part being a real thing at some parks. Many smaller places have traveling models for their rides, and are basically permanent funfairs/carnivals.

^They could always get a ride with a friend or take a bus. Don't have a car myself, and I've been going to parks this way the past few years.

That logo has always looked creepy to me (guess thats what the park was going for though).

I'd say it is... Wonderland really seems to be the "testing ground" for CF. Being perfectly honest, I was kind of pissed when Fury 325 opened, as it was what all of us at CW wanted out of Leviathan, but didn't get. As for moving the park, I doubt that it could've been pulled off, however, when the owner of Marineland finally kicks the bucket, I'd absolutely love to see a competing chain pick up the property. With 5 million people in the area, they could definitely support two large parks. Furthermore, if CF has put in this much work to fix up and improve CW without any competing parks nearby, I can only imagine how much CF l/CW would step up their game with some healthy competition nearby.

I'm wondering this too honestly. If this post is coming from an 18 year old then it's hilarious and I hope this thread goes on for days but I'm pretty sure the original poster is about 8 years old and then I might give legitimate advice. Lol I'm torn here... I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the original poster is 17 or 18. When I was in highschool a few years back, some of the people who would be considered "video game nerds", "anime geeks" and "fantasy weirdos", seemed to have virtually no social skills, and no concept of how to interact with other people. These people were part of what many may see as a nerdy, yet still somewhat "mainstream" group... They at least had a few friends in their circle to relate to. For the original poster though, I highly doubt there's any fellow coaster enthusiasts to relate to.

Seriously though just ask... what do you have to lose? I don't really get why this is a big deal. The "big deal" is that the person who started this thread is being considered a: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3Vf5ZxX6qc8 "Rollercoaster weirdo" for doing so... By OTHER "Rollercoaster weirdos"! ... A weirdo among weirdos

Being totally serious here; I'd definitely reccomend listening to this podcast: The Art of Charm (AOC) Podcast: http://theartofcharm.com/podcast/

In all seriousness though, whenever I go to parks with groups, I'll usually just post something like: "Trip to (insert park here), next week! Inbox/message me for details.", and address it to friends I think might want to join me. It's really not that hard.... I'd also reccomend listening to a few episodes of this podcast: http://theartofcharm.com/podcast/ trim.18F2B8B7-B67A-44A6-B61C-D28B27750848.MOV Just don't be one of these guys/gals and you'll be fine!
