PortugePunk replied to Werner's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
great photos. that new boomerang looks fun. really interesting idea in enclosing the first lift. would definitely make for a more interesting lift. blue fire also looks amazing. wish the states would get more small, compact crazy rides like that! -

PortugePunk replied to thrillrider's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
These are fun. I don't think Colossus is that bad either. The only part that really gets me is the bottom of the first drop. Other than that, I don't think it's awful.... unless you ride it backwards. -

Just saw your scans of the old Marriott's Great America brochures from Santa Clara. Man, do those bring back memories. I used to have all of those, too! I was obsessed with that park growing up - it was the closest to us and it was an hour away, but I always wanted to go. LOVE the art direction on the cover of the brochure where it looks like construction paper. Super unique for that time - almost looks like something you'd see now. All the stuff about Vortex also reminded me of the glossy 8x10 the park sent me back in the day after Paramount purchased the park. Glossy 8x10 of Vortex from GA, circa 1995?

Couldn't agree more about the font. I really HATE Gadzoox. No the style or anything. It's just drawn poorly and really bad type... but... the context as it's used, I think it looks pretty good! -

I wouldn't mind seeing the yellow outline 1/2 pt thinner, either. I think it's fine the way it is now, but would be cool to see it as just a hairline. -

I think the slightly darker green is really helping! The yellow just doesn't resolve well around that primary green. Nice, Robb! -
