Kolmården Discussion Thread
UberBeavis replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
World's First Mega Roller Skater, in a box! Fire effects created by a specially trained herd of goats, igniting their farts as the trains roll by. They're really expensive goats. -
Good Eating Outside of Theme Parks
UberBeavis replied to cfc's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Outside of Universal Studios Hollywood, just around the corner is an excellent Italian restaurant, Miceli's. Just North of Universal, on Lankershim Blvd. - or one Red Line Subway stop away, near North Hollywood Station is an excellent bar- the Federal Bar- they've got beer floats that are excellent, and really good food, too. -
For parks, definitely Central Florida - give me Busch Gardens for coasters, EPCOT for booze and beautiful locations, and I'm all set. I'm with Guy for airports in California, though - Bob Hope is awesome - I can take a train to/from my house there, and I've never waited more than about 10 minutes at baggage claim on the way back.

West Coast Bash 2013 Live Updates!

Thanks Robb for throwing another great event - the morning tour of the log ride and the special ride through the Calico mine with Eric was worth the price of admission, and the ERT was just super delicious gravy. -
Trackless Vehicle Rides/Attractions
UberBeavis replied to Nrthwnd's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'll be a little less diplomatic "How in the name of ever lovin' Jesus Mother Effing Christ would earthquake standards have anything to do with trackless rides?!?" The only thing keeping trackless rides out of California, would be COLD HARD CASH! Nobody's put up the dough, so nobody gets one. -

I think they're building the world's tallest, fastest Waffle House. -
What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?

Ninja at SFMM today. -
Absolutely had a blast on Full Throttle - It feels kind of like the bastard kid of Mr. Freeze and Orlando's Mummy. Better in the back - especially the weird sideways hanging bit after the backwards launch. The hangtime in the loop going forward is indescribably cool - you can really feel the train hanging on the upstops, and it feels like you're upside down longer than you'd imagine from just watching. I don't miss Log Jammer one bit - I rode it maybe twice in the last ten years. I'll be running to ride Full Throttle every morning I can. It'll be interesting to see at night with the area lights, too. Here's a few cellphone pics- Hopefully the station gets a cover, soon. Backwards Twisty! Zoomin' across Superman Plaza I really enjoyed this ride a lot more than I thought I would.
