Batman is already a pretty intense ride, I can only imagine how epic it will be going backwards. Edit: In case anyone is doubting the announcement. Link

What a lovely view of the parking lot from up there!

Would that type of blasting undermine the structure of Superman? If it did then they wouldn't be doing it.

Guys, i've got a great idea. Let's go zorbing at the top of a mountain, nothing can go wrong! Russia looking strong for a complete sweep at this year's Darwin Awards.

What are you talking about? If Gatekeeper is anything like Adventure Express, it'll be awesome!

Today I learned one in seven people are against fun.

Bit hopeful, aren't we? Also, what about Windseeker, Dinosaurs Alive and Delirium? They have plenty of rides in common.

Racer, Diamondback, Vortex, Beast. All great people eaters. Sorry, should have clarified, they need another people eater for the crowds.

^From what i've heard, something along the lines of Leviathan at Canada's Wonderland. Kings Island needs a giant people eater.

Come on guys, don't give up so easily. Just bring your truck and some tools over, we can totally save these classic wooden coasters from demolition!

Fire can turn a boring show into an epic show.

Did you make the slide panels individually or is there a way to warp them to a specific size and shape?

Boulder Dash is still my number one with El Toro right behind it. Mean Streak and Wildcat still suck though. --Generator: Jordan's Ballot Helper 2012 (wood)-- --Ballot: 5218492e138-- --EmailAddress------ LOCATION FOLLOWS THIS LINE (LEAVE THIS LINE AS IS) ~"Milwaukee, WI and Dayton, OH" NAME FOLLOWS THIS LINE (LEAVE THIS LINE AS IS IN Ballot) ~"Patrick Jeffers" RANK THE FOLLOWING RIDING SENSATIONS <-LEAVE THIS LINE AS IS Abrupt Airtime_____________________________,y,y,1 Out of Control Feeling/Directional Changes_,y,y,2 Sensation of Speed_________________________,y,y,3 Floating Airtime___________________________,y,y,4 Positive G's/Loops_________________________,y,y,5 Lateral Forces_____________________________,y,y,6 COASTER NAME PARK LOC <--Please leave this Boulder Dash Lake Compounce CT,y,n,1 El Toro SFGAd NJ,y,n,2 My Favorite Steel Anypark Anywhere **,y,n,3 The Voyage Holiday World IN,y,n,4 American Thunder Six Flags St Louis MO,y,n,5 Raven Holiday World IN,y,n,6 Shivering Timbers Michigan's Adventure MI,y,n,7 Viper SFGAm IL,y,y,8 Comet Great Escape NY,y,n,9 American Eagle SFGAm IL,y,y,10 Wooden Warrior Quassy CT,y,n,11 Cornball Express Indiana Beach IN,y,y,12 Excalibur Funtown USA ME,y,n,13 HellCat Timber Falls WI,y,n,14 The Legend Holiday World IN,y,n,15 Yankee Cannonball Canobie Lake Park NH,y,n,16 Cyclone Luna Park NY,y,n,17 Cyclone SF New England MA,y,n,18 Hoosier Hurricane Indiana Beach IN,y,y,19 Rolling Thunder SFGAd NJ,y,n,20 Wolverine Wildcat Michigan's Adventure MI,y,n,21 Racer Kings Island OH,y,y,22 The Beast Kings Island OH,y,y,23 Le Monstre La Ronde QU,y,n,24 Blue Streak Cedar Point OH,y,y,25 Screamin' Eagle Six Flags St Louis MO,y,n,26 The Boss Six Flags St Louis MO,y,n,27 Thunderbolt SF New England MA,y,n,28 Woodstock Express Kings Island OH,y,y,29 Meteor Little Amerricka WI,y,n,30 Little Dipper SFGAm IL,y,y,31 Zach's Zoomer Michigan's Adventure MI,y,n,32 Mean Streak Cedar Point OH,y,y,33 Wildcat Lake Compounce CT,y,n,34

Awe, I miss Santa Claw too. Wonder if Real Art has anything up their sleeves this year?

Voted for Coaster Expeditions just because it's been a while since your last one. I also find them more fun to watch because of your wacky shenanigans and all the cool places you go.

To any company, what's the next big trend in the amusement industry and are you planning on following it or trying to start your own? Could be a push for more family rides, technological innovation to improve reliability, or even rides with more interactivity with guests.

Awesome...next up - Vortex and Flight Deck!!! Actually, I wouldn't mind if they demolished all of the coasters at Kings Island except Beast and Diamondback. I would be OK with Beast being demolished too! Probably the most overrated coaster I have been on IMO. I second that, really overhyped.

Gravity Group, how hard is it to build a dueling coaster compared to your normal wooden coaster?

Proslide, what would happen if somebody "accidentally" spilled a lot of Jello mix in the water on a waterslide?

To Intamin. Your rides are being built all over the world as the amusement industry continues to grow. What sort of challenges do you face when designing rides in other countries and how do you overcome them?

To anyone from RMC, you've had many projects over the years and i'm sure many more are in the works. What's one of your favorite memories from a project you've worked on? Could be a funny story or just some cool new technology you got to play with.

Looks good, but I think it's upsidedown

I always enjoyed the Congo River mini-golf place near my house till they closed and a car rental shop took its place. I always enjoyed the scavenger hunt and theming they had going on, pretty nice for mini-golf. How did you guys make it back after the steering gave out, did you go all Macgyver?

Ahhh, this brings back so many great memories from the North East trip! I remember seeing the Google bike and was wondering when they'd upload the street view. You can see my brother and I in the spot I took the above picture, we were walking next to the bike for a while.

As ghetto as China can be sometimes, those views are simply beautiful.
