  1. For next time you go and want that true VIP experience, VIP Pass. I did it this year, worth every penny and would do it again.
  2. Uhh... Have you been to Cedar Point and been there during night time?...
  3. Oh boy... Just wait until he finds out about their VIP program that allows the user to skip the line altogether...
  4. TIL theme parks make decisions on closing the park to prevent people from taking advantage of the dining pass... Who knew!? /s
  5. While I love those two Intamins, I cannot feel like they severely knocked off every single RMC element. The only two original element I see of those two coasters is the "Non inverting cobra roll" and the quick switch track, while every other element is from RMC, using what is arguably, their signature elements which didn't exist before RMC came along. At least try to be creative and do something different. Meanwhile, I do feel at the same time I'm glad other manufacturers are taking note of RMC and re-using their element to make a more intense and exciting ride. It just feels like they're the cheater of a school test and copying the answer from the smarter kid (RMC).
  6. I can't help but think of CoasterBill comment of the "dust" cedar point put in the bottom left corner of SV fun pic looking like vomit, it's all I see now literally and it still cracks me up. CoasterBill said it best as well that in every picture, the people look like they're reacting to the vomit.
  7. Wow!! That POV really stands out. This is one of the best dive coasters layout in my opinion. I love the overbanked high speed turn and the two barrel rolls, much better than a second drop in my opinion, I rather have these elements than a second drop!
  8. If this was even remotely true... Why would CP go to the trouble of theming and naming three trains when they "allegedly" knew they'd just be using two trains. Why theme the third train if its only going to be used as part. This does not pass the logic test so it's bullshit.
  9. Hello Paula, Just saw your video update on Facebook of your work on the Voyage. As a deaf person, I just wanted to say thanks to Holiday World for your efforts to subtitle the video, it makes a world of difference to me to be able to understand what's being said in the video and that it didn't go unnoticed. Not many companies today subtitle their videos due to the additional work required. I actually visited Holiday World from Minnesota for my Bachelor's party for the first time this year with three other deaf friends and we were pleasantly surprised to see someone who knew sign language at guest service and they were very friendly to us! You made our trip very memorable for us and we enjoyed your park, the Voyage became my #1 wooden roller coaster! Thanks again for your fantastic customer service in and out of the park!
  10. I'm guessing you never heard of Wildfire at Kolmarden Zoo, Sweden...
  11. In the Planet Coaster update, it seems as if the three trains are named after the already revealed characters, Blackjack, Digger, Wild One. Something we already knew would happen, but this is the first time I've seen it "announced" through an "official source".
  12. New video of the aftermath https://www.facebook.com/100009094599429/videos/1822978108015325/
  13. I would think the floor raising and/or other ride elements would be locked out by the ride's computer if it senses the ride is in motion, similar to roller coaster blocking. If the computer in fact allowed the floor to be raised while the ride was in motion then that would be a program error I would think. Also if the floor was raised, why didn't the other cars fall off as the ride looked like it was at it's full height swing, on the way back (after the first one broke off), the other cars would hit the floor as well, or people on the other cars feeling their legs hit the floor, so far we haven't heard about any injuries in the other 5 (?) cars and from the aftermath video, they all seem to be running off the ride with no injuries, so I would be more inclined to believe the metal fatigue story than the floors raising story.
  14. Where is that one at? Here it is, (starts at 0:19) It isn't a 5 min video of the aftermath, it's really is more of a 2 min video of the aftermath and the rest of the news broadcast. EDIT: Actually I just found the original 5 min video; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJJgRQjvO8c
