Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

They're doing a fastpass for Halloweekends? Oh here we go... -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

The airtime hill has too many g's, therefore making it uncomfortable. It's too much ejector seat; some people love that, I do too, but too much is too much. -

I agree; Mean Streak has its times where it's rough but I could say the same thing about Maverick...except its worse. I think I just don't like the fact that Maverick is so compact in the space that it's in; that's why it is so jerky. I like Millennium because it's more spread out and is actually smooth unlike Maverick. -
Funniest Ride and Coaster Names

Windseeker...because whenever there is wind the ride shuts down; ironic, no? -
B&M vs Intamin
coastermaniac replied to alpengeistdude321's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I guess I'm indifferent about the two companies. I like and dislike both for various reasons. -
Favorite type of B&M Coaster?
coastermaniac replied to MummyAW's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I love floorless; they're just so fun and enjoyable. -

I love Mean Streak; for me it's not rough but let's stay on track here. I 'dislike' Maverick a lot. IMO, I think they could've done better with the 'airtime' hill. It just seems like it is way too forceful. So they did, in fact, TRY to put one in but they just didn't do it right. -

These are two reasons why I hate the ride. The so called 'airtime' hill seems like they tried too hard to make it an airtime hill and therefore it's not fun and is just plain uncomfortable. The other part is, what I call, the whiplash part. That and the following whiplash part hurt, even when I prepare for them they aren't fun in any way. Just my opinion. -

^ That's my assumption as well. -

By the way, on a side note, has anyone heard anything more about the fate of Son of Beast? -

^ So you're saying that they'll eventually rename all the Cedar Fair waterparks to Soak City? -
Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
coastermaniac replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
At first, I didn't ride Adventure Express because I didn't know what it was and didn't feel like finding out. After I went on it, I now have to make sure I ride it every trip. It's actually a pretty fun ride. Kings Island does need to update their water park. The only thing that I am upset about is the fact that they are renaming it to Soak City. Why name it the same name that many of the other Cedar Fair water parks? It's just another thing that I think they are doing to NOT want to show variety in their parks (along with 6 Windseekers and 3 Dinosaurs Alive as of next year). -

I guess I'm indifferent about this decision. I'm not a big fan of water parks so I can't really complain. -

The Thunder Alley go-carts? From what I remember when being in that part of the park the go-karts are kind of far from the coaster, aren't they? -
Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread
coastermaniac replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
With the rides and attractions now becoming similiar (in this case congruent: Windseeker and DA!), Fast Lane is bound for all the parks (as much as I hate the concept for the Cedar Fair parks). -
Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread
coastermaniac replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Why must Cedar Fair keep adding the same ride to their parks? Four Windseekers in one year and two the next year...it's crazy. Plus three Dinosaurs Alive! attractions in two years?! Seriously? Do they know what 'variety' means? -
What is the best floorless?
coastermaniac replied to ddaver177's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I've only been on one floorless so I really can't say which is the best. I do really enjoy Dominator though; it's a lot of fun. -
Halloween at CP, DP, KD, KI
coastermaniac replied to KBrylczyk's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The first weekend of Halloweekends at Cedar Point can change; sometimes it can be quite crowded and sometimes it's not so much. Either way, it's still a great event. -

Part of the announcement better have something to do with SoB; it needs work. -
Most Exciting 2012 Coaster...

My favorite 2012 coaster is Cedar Point's coa...oh wait!! -
Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
coastermaniac replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I know this is off topic, but I was reviewing the 2010 park attendances and it said that Kings Island actually had more visitors than Cedar Point for last year. I just thought that was interesting for some reason. I guess it's just whenever I go to Cedar Point (which is often) it can get pretty busy at times. Whenever I go to Kings Island (which is once a year for a few days) the park seems to not be very crowded. -

It has to be three 'smaller' things; but then again who knows. My opinion...just wait until they let us know. -

If it were a new coaster, we'd probably see construction somewhere in the park already. -
