Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread

Which was rougher . . . Hurler or Anaconda? -
My question for KT is . . . . What is your favorite roller coaster?

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
Jason Maier replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
How long a drive was it for from Maryland to Cedar Point? -
I'm sticking with S&S 4D. Whatever it is should be a sizable addition compared to previous years. Now if that does come to pass . . . . well, here's three possible locations for it: 1. Between Superman: Ride of Steel and Batwing 2. It replaces Penguin's Blizzard River 3. It replaces the Gotham City Arena Option 1 is the most logical . . . at least in my opinion. And of course the naming . . . . I'd say Harley Quinn's Crazy Spin (of course in her colors of red/black)

Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread

Looks like I'll be making a trip down to KD for this (as well as Volcano, Intimidator 305, etc) Which do you think has the better layout . . . Steel Vengeance or Twisted Timbers ? -
Hopefully soon . . . I for one wish they'd make the Capital Railway some kind of Haunted Maze/Trail . . . . but my personal favorite from last year was Hall Manor: The Return of Eleanor. And I noticed that the first weekend for Fright Fest at SFA is September 30/October 1, while the other SF parks have FF starting a week or two earlier. Why so?

I believe they are constructing a new game. I saw it today but sadly I didn't take pics. I saw the same thing . . . . it's another one of those rope ladder games (I even saw the park president Rick there looking at it) and they moved the basketball game to in front of Gotham Arena. Why they did this . . . . I don't know

Favorite attraction never made?
Jason Maier replied to Themonerd's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I remember from watching "The Legacy of Arrow Development" documentary by ACE about the pipeline coaster that Arrow built a demo model of in the late 80's. It could have been a nice model (better than a Vekoma SLC) -
1. Blizzard River is unique . . . . it does get decent ridership in the summer part of the operating season. 1a. Let's assume BR does go away, I could see an Intamin Impluse or a 4D free spin going there. 2. I haven't noticed Apocalypse being stuck much on the lift hill . . . did you actually see it stuck yesterday? 2a. Assuming it's the end of the line for Apocalypse, do they convert it to a floorless coaster (and if so, would the layout have to be changed at all?) or scrap it for something different?

Yeah . . . concrete in the water park on a hot day isn't pleasant at all (and naturally when I went last week, I forgot to pack my water shoes with me). And I can't figure out why the Skull Mountain drop still remains. It was a good ride (Shoot the Chutes on a larger scale), but I guess it was a pain in the butt to maintain, and it didn't run in colder weather. And even though it's my home park, it needs major work.

Funniest Ride Experiences

This past Sunday at SFA . . . just a moment after Wonder Woman: Lasso of Truth rose up . . . a pair of flip flops dropped down
