These are the rides I immidetly think of when I hear of rides being neutered. Revolution @ SFMM - The OTSRs & all those Trims really just ruin the ride. Green Lantern @ SFMM - Barely even spins anymore. Raging Bull @ SFGAm - Grr. Does that trim on the 3rd hill have to be THAT strong!!? High Roller @ Valleyfair - Not sure if this has been mentioned or not, but when I rode it, there was a really NASTY set of trim brakes on the 2nd hill that just TOTALLY killed the momentum for me. Twister II @ Elitch Gardens - Could've been a fun ride if it weren't for the googolplex trims the ride has. Dueling Dragons (Dragon Challenge) @ IOA - DUEL DAMMIT!!! START DUELING AGAIN!!!!

Great Photo TR! Ocean Kingdom looks absolutely beautiful and FOTR looks fun as well. Hope to make it out there someday. -
B&M Wing Rider Coasters - Love or Hate?
XII replied to jfruge's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I've only been on one Wingrider. Raptor @ Gardaland. While I won't say I hate the ride as I did find it to be a lot of fun (particularly the water effects), I pretty much have the same complaints about Wingriders. They're not too intense and are far more floaty and graceful than I prefer. But I still enjoyed it and the GP seems to be eating them up. So really, my only real complaint are the horrible continous-locking restraints. -
Theme Parks In Iraq.

Thanks for sharing. I always enjoy seeing parks from places that aren't well known for theme parks. Hope these areas continue to do well and thrive. -

Another vote for the Pacific Northwest and the Seattle Area. I also think that Lisbon could use a decent-sized theme park. -

This looks awesome! And this is just a prototype. This with a complete layout would be 100 different kinds of awesome. I really hope that this gets picked up and quickly! -

Robb got these for us on the TPR Europe Trip and these were a saving grace. The crowds were INSANE that day, and I would've spent the entire day in line if it wasn't for this. DEFINITELY get this.

I miss all the Intamin Ag 1st Gen Free Falls!
XII replied to VMan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I've done two of these. Freefall @ SFMM (R.I.P) and Hollywood Tower at Movieland Studios in Italy. I must admit. I really like these rides. Something about creeping up to the edge and then dropping just makes it much more fun. Its a bummer that these are all disappearing. -

Great to hear. I don't think Ireland has any major coasters, so this sounds like a great start. Hope it all goes well.
