Oh ,I didn't know they were going to another park today!

Hey that was great! I prosume you only do complete park videos when go on organised trips? But the little POV's scattered about the report is cool! I must say that IMO the Tornado doesn't look that good! Robb, why did you go to that park? was there a certain ride you HAD to go on? Movie world Madrid seems alot more fun!

Just a quick question, please don't laugh, but whats Cedar Fair?

Hey Robb, do you feel the same way about Bat Wing & BORG Assimilator? Air was designed to be a relaxing, smooth ride that gives you the feeling of flight, and I think it does all that, I think its a nice break from the norm as you have the mega intense Nemesis next door to it! But the only problem with it is where it is, its really not suited in the fobidden valley, well the themeing isn't anyway! IMO

Thank you, at least someone agrees with me! I find it pretty damn scary scary when you flip back to the flying position because your so close to the ground, and there a rock that I always think I'm guna hit!

Tom, where do you find the time to visit all these parks?

Well said!! JO is a good coaster, but there a millions of good coasters out there, Nemesis is a one off unique coaster!

Air is the only B&M Flyer that has this "lay on your back" section, maybe thats why they thought you spent alot of time on your back!

Well Duane gets all his info from the ride manufactuer, so if they say it's 114ft it is! So JO has the 3rd biggest loop in the world! I heard that it was going to be 290ft but local residents put paid to that!

Who is it that keeps claiming that on Air, you spend more time on you back than on your front? Because thats nonsense, your on your back for 1 drop and a bend, then you do a 360' twist!

Fantasy Island in England got nothing

Hey Robb or Elissa, willl you be doing a photo trip report for the uk trip? just like you did for your massive Europe trip in 2005?

Don't get me wrong, I love the Jubilee Odyessy, but you can't compare it to Nemesis, it has no themeing at all, its placed on top of a market place! Even though (after taking a quick flick through RCDB) the Odyessy has the worlds biggest vertical loop + the biggest cobra roll(please correct me if I'm wrong) and it does have a pretty intense/steep/tall first drop, it jus doesn't have that cutting edge that Nemesis has! If anyone hasn't heard the Jubilee Odyssey, heres a pic: Worlds biggest vertical loop + cobra roll

Yeah I liked the themeing too! Them trains did seem to have a "new style" look to them Apparantly this is a smooth coaster I'll give it a year!

View it here: http://www.flamingolandforce.co.uk/openingday/kumali/ Many thanks to flamingolandforce.co.uk for their many construction updates for this coaster! And obviously thanks for this video! But loads of thanks go to Robb & Elissa for bringing us their TPR "Exclusive" construction tour video of Kumali!

^^Block brakes after every drop? Thorpe rarely run 2 trains on Colossus, so why would they run 5 on this piece of sh*te! I'd like to see the Black Hole replacing it! WOO HOO!!!!

If you notice when the planes go over the park, they're already about 10,000/15,000ft up, so I don't think a 300ft ride would do that much damage! And Stealth doesn't even have one of them red warning lights on the top!

I personally would like to see the tallest (traditional) coaster in the world, but like someone said earlier in this thread, they will need a lot of room!

Its going to be a..........................................Boomerang

Most coaster that are called "Coaster" or "Rollercoaster" were built in the early coaster years when there was only 1 type of coaster about.....the Rollercoaster, so for them to be called Rollercoaster would be a huge investment! But in saying that if a park named a coaster "Rollercoaster" that opened 1990+ then I would agree with what your saying!

Do S&S Space Shots really count as drop rides? And they not really a 'freefall' ride, so they're knowhere near as intense as real drop towers!

Ok, here it is, sorry I didn't post it in th TP, I had problems with uploading it! (Major rattling through the cobra roll!!!!) Colossus.zip

Ok, I'm getting really confused now! When I say its lost 4/5 of its population, I mean that it currently only has 1/5 of its original population, the other 4/5 are scattered around America, I don't know the total amount of people that died, I don't it was many though!
