I definitely prefer the restraints on Gatekeeper and Valravn than the restraints on Raptor and Rougarou. Valravn and Gatekeeper are probably my favorite B&Ms out of the few that I've ridden.

^When I was there I only thought that Magnum and Corkscrew were painful, and I guess Mean Streak and Blue Streak if you sit in the wrong rows. But, Corkscrew was the only ride that I wouldn't have ridden again.

Under the fifth amendment (double jeopardy clause), it says that a person can't be charged twice for the same crime. So if someone was charged with arson and found innocent in court, they wouldn't be able to be charged for arson again in that crime even if more evidence showed up. The part of the amendment that provides for this reads: So, I think that he could be charged with homicide and aggravated arson, but if he was found innocent, he couldn't be charged again.

It's crazy to think that the most ridden ride this year rarely had a wait. Valravn, Millenium, and Raptor often had long waits from what I could tell, so it's not crazy that they were among the most ridden rides.

Intamin: probably Wicked Twister at CP. I found it boring and uncomfortable. GCI: I've only ridden two, so I can't really pick a worst B&M: they are all great, I've never ridden a B&M that I didn't like.

We don't need negativity about SkyRides and boats on this thread.

Im not sure if this is a serious post or not, but the 2016 season has been over for more than a month.....

Where can you find these maps?

So continues the offseason...... I really don't know who thought it was a good idea to stop talking about skyrides

1. Valleyfair and Nickelodeon Universe (4 hrs) 2. Adventureland (5 hrs) 3. Worlds of Fun (6 hrs)

How about a skyride that goes all the way from Castaway Bay to the park's front entrance? Let's dream big! Make it a three-way skyride: Castaway Bay to Breakers Express to the entrance

Even if I was wearing cargo shorts, I still wouldn't want to bring my phone on the ride. I know that I would be worrying about my phone the whole ride instead of enjoying it.

It must be the offseason if we're arguing about phones and cargo shorts for multiple days Let's talk about SkyRides again

You don't need a phone for FunPix and I wouldn't call tracking wait times "part of the park experience". So the only thing that I missed by not having my phone on me at CP was the Battle for CP, which we wouldn't have wanted to spend time on anyway.

Valleyfair 1) Wild Thing 2) Renegade 3) Steel Venom 4) Excalibur 5) High Roller 6) Mad Mouse 7) Corkscrew Wild Thing only above Renegade because I didn't get stuck on it 2 out of the three times I rode it

Was that to me? If so the sky ride isnt a coaster...so there for i didnt include it. Skyride or get out Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk So you guys would probably be very disapponted that I spent three days at CP in June and didn't ride Sky Ride?

Wait, did your friend take this pic from the boat?

Just messing man, thanks for the info How long did it take to quote the spelling errors from that long of a post Anyway, thanks for the information, dollywoodmech2!

No thank you. Even if it isn't technically a wooden coaster, I want it to look like one. And if they were doing that don't think they would be carefully removing the track, they would just tear the whole thing down.

It will be easy to hide after this weekend when the park is closed until May.

Must've been. And I guess we didn't have a coaster reach 330 feet until 2003 with Dragster (to correct my earlier post) Have there been any observation rides taller than that since then or was Space Spiral a one-of-a-kind ride? I really like not talking about Mean Streak for once

Not quite, but it was the tallest ride in the park until 1965. Space Spiral was 330 ft tall. That was the tallest ride in the park from 1965 until Dragster opened in 2003. Ah yes, forgot about Space Spiral. Odd too, I love observation towers, and at any place that has one, they're a must ride. The peninsula from that height would have been quite a sight! Im surprised they were able to build a 330 foot tall ride in 1965. Why did it take until 2000 to get a coaster to that height? I guess coasters didn't even reach 200 feet until 1989. On another note, it's really nice that CP breaks or has broken most records so that I only have to go to the list of coasters on their Wikipedia page to figure out which coasters were the first to do things.

I don't think Intamin and HFE have liked Intamin since the Lost River of the Ozarks at SDC, but don't quote me on that

I don't know if you meant the only wooden coaster, but I know that Maverick at Cedar Point is one example of an inclined launch.

Where would the line go for an 85 minute wait on Gemini? I don't remember exactly, but that ride doesn't have much queue, correct? Same for Iron Dragon.
