Lagoon Discussion Thread
Guy T. Koepp replied to Twister II's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'll be there in October. Very much looking forward to riding their coaster collection and enjoying their Halloween event. -
I am so sad that I am not working in LA this October! It's been 2 years since I've been to Knott's Haunt. Perhaps next year. On the plus side I do get to go to Lagoon and Kings Dominion. I will have to book an extra flight out to LA next year for sure. I hope the new mazes and the Calico Mine Train overlay are a hit. I will love to see them the next time I visit. The new Skeleton Key Rooms are always a plus and I found them quite entertaining two years ago when I was there. Great TR! It looks like Haunt is gonna be awesome this year!

^^Knott's seems to be headed in the right direction with the rehabs of the Timber Mountain Log Ride, Calico Mine Train and Ghostrider. I think another huge step in the that direction would be for them to rebuild the Haunted Shack in place of the Screaming Swing after it is removed. I have many fond memories of the old Haunted Shack, and I missed it greatly. It also made for another great place for a maze during Haunt.

If I were you I might avoid Goliath, the helix might cause problems if you have circulation issues. It (Goliath) did a number on me Sunday and I may have to avoid rides for a while. Tatsu's pretzel loop can be very intense as well. But none of us are doctors, so I'd talk to yours before going. Hope this helped! Try the hick maneuver. Fighter pilots do it to prevent blacking out. "When executing a "positive G" maneuver like turning upwards the force pushes the pilot down. The most serious consequence of this is that the blood in the pilot's body is also pulled down and into their extremities. If the forces are great enough and over a sufficient period of time this can lead to blackouts (called g-induced Loss Of Consciousness or G-LOC), because not enough blood is reaching the pilot's brain. To counteract this effect pilots are trained to tense their legs and abdominal muscles to restrict the "downward" flow of blood. This is known as the "grunt" or the "Hick maneuver", both names allude to the sounds the pilot makes, and is the primary method of resisting G-LOCs. " Video of hick maneuver....... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuqf_6oplMc I find that just flexing the PC muscles (Kegels) you can achieve the same effect. Bonus for all you premarital sex having millennials. It also prevents premature ejaculation. So flex away! https://bestforlife.com/product/mpt/?gclid=CNCmtZLrzscCFVY9gQodmM0Jfw

^All my porn is filed under the file name, "All my porn" In fact, I have a 2TB seagate drive with, "My Porn." in sharpie on the side of it. I hide things in plain site. No one would expect that. -

^No, nope, nothing! I don't see why anyone with any sort of African decent would see that as being even a little bit racist. Now everyone sing! http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=everyone%27s+a+little+bit+racist&FORM=VIRE7#view=detail&mid=7588F98BB8EA26C063657588F98BB8EA26C06365 -
Robb & Elissa in Japan - 2015!
Guy T. Koepp replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I remember looking at the menu for the LaQua Denny's in 2007--lots of "interesting" items. Instead of Moons over my hammy, might they offer Rising sun over Tokyo? -

You just made my day! Thanky! More importantly, it came from a 23 year old. You have restored my faith in Millennials. For the moment. -

Robb & Elissa in Japan - 2015!

^ This! I've always thought Robb could use a good substance addiction. I hope you're feeling much better and the surgery was eventful. -
Ask Joey. He know all things Jew. Does the whole So Cal Jewish contingent descend upon Magic Mountain on Yom Kippur? Afterall, it is Magic Mountain, and Moses, or was it Jesus... ...hmmmmm, John Smith? No Brigham Young. Wait! I mean Will Ferrell... ...yeah, Will Ferrell came down from some mountain. Or some other biblical sh!t like that. You know, Mountain... ...mountain, magical or whatevs. Coincidence? I think not.

It's the only location that actually had a consistently working GIB. With that said, how on earth does Silverwood keep 6FGAm's old DejaVu working so well. It says a lot about the maintenance department up there in Idaho. You could argue that the winters are horrible there in the Great Lakes region, but honestly, they have some pretty harsh weather in the Pacific Northwest as well. If not consistently more harsh.
