Photo TR: Opening day Karacho at Tripsdrill
Jew replied to Hhappy's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
^Agreed. Love the train design too! -
Went to the park today for the YOLOCoaster credit... -Ride is fun. Best ride in the park now. But that's not saying anything special. Launch packs a little punch, loop has some hangtime, and you get some air over the top hat. Other portions of ride are just there. Operations were pretty good...waited about a half hour each time. -YOLOPlaza is pathetic. So thrown together last minute. -Green Lantern is still awful and painful. -The park is still gross. Most of the trash cans are so dirty you don't even want to put trash in them (parking lot ones were the worst). The coke can bins at the ticket booths were all swarming with bees, which means no one has bothered to clean/empty them. Over at JB's BBQ, they were "grilling" the chicken...and it was just a giant pile of frozen chicken breasts with grill marks already on them. Literally a pile, not even spread out over the grill. -NO STILT GUYS! WTF!!!!

I'm glad to see they are literally trying anything to get the park back on its feet...hope it works out. -

I hope they soar over some 3rd world countries... -
Who killed Geauga Lake?
Jew replied to larrygator's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Speaking of a dying Geauga Lake... http://www.news-herald.com/articles/2013/05/15/news/doc5193a7ae1f654550687468.txt?viewmode=fullstory Cedar Fair still hasn't sold the property and neighbors are getting pissed. -
Missed Credits: Coasters you COULD have...
Jew replied to RIP Psyclone's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I slept in during some of the credit whoring days on previous TPR trips in China and on the Oktoberfest one. -
Schlitterbahn Kansas - Verrückt Water Slide
Jew replied to KBrylczyk's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Common sense would dictate that there will be some sort of friction pad to slow rafts down...but since it is a Schlitterbahn park, I'm not so sure! -
At least you can make a living from being a Mermaid. Brony's don't have any excuses!

BTTF Merch at Universal Hollywood?
Jew replied to Savvy14's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^That's all they currently have. Cars from all three of the movies with packaging that says Universal Studios. -
Photo TR: Jiggidy Returns to Western PA and Ohio
Jew replied to Erik Johnson's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
This TR makes me want to get back to Cedar Point. My visit where I joined the TPR midwest trip was extremely rushed thanks to their horrible rain policies! -

I don't think there is such thing as a short line at Fuji-Q. -
Europa Park Discussion Thread

Europa water park? I can't wait to see how amazing the themeing will be! -
TPR's 2013 Japan Trip - Mini Updates!
Jew replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I had a bruise from my belt buckle because the airtime caused it to be pushed against me so hard. I was also stuck in the queue with Ryan for 3 hours, so that made it much worse... -
That's correct. Vekoma was meant to do that work on all of the three clones, when at Six Flags, but they never did because Six Flags refused to pay for the rides in some way. Otherwise they might have been operating on a more reliable basis. IIRC, Six Flags didn't pay because of all the issues they had with them, claiming it was Vekoma who breached their contract. I believe they ultimately contracted Premier to try and get them running more reliably.

^Post some of them here too! Give us a preview of the pictures and then link to your facebook update.

^I'm curious about that too. It's definitely not my thing, but it sure is fascinating to know there is a convention about it!

California Great America (CGA) Discussion Thread

The wheel is a brilliant idea: $2 to either win a front of line pass that costs the park nothing, or discounts that encourage guests to spend in the park! -
Liseberg Discussion Thread
Jew replied to viking86's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I was thinking the same thing. I can't imagine how difficult it is to get that hillside ready for all those footers!
