  1. ^Holy cow! The friggen thing actually BREAKS! That's insane! I can't wiat to be there! As for hte person whoa sked about boogie boards, I somehow doubt they'll allow them, this isn't a surf pool, its actually a rathernarrow wave pool, and if you surf you are very likely to hit people on the way
  2. Well then if you count it like that inverted coasters are all one big inversion except for the parts that actually make riders go upside down
  3. Oh! Wait! Example! SOB has now gotten trains from a company that DIDNT build it because the old ones were too heavy
  4. Well I dont know about those situations specifically but I know that often parks ask one company to make trains for/change the trakc of another company's coaster. so I figure theyc ould just order said wheels/parts/whatever from other companies. or if its small stuff like wheels or bolts or whatever they can just go to a company that specializes in steel wheels/bolts/whatever, which isnt necessarily a coaster company.
  5. I guess it is, because it does flip you over. (though it doesnt have to flip you 180 degrees to be an ivnersion. inclined loops are nversions too). Though if you translate "inversion" to hebrew(and i assume other languages too) its called(freely translated) "upside-down-er." meaning its not an ivnersion. So something gets lost in the translation.
  6. Hm... Doesnt look like you got alot of rides in. makes me worrie dabout my time at the parks
  7. ^Well isn't th water gonna be higher than in that picture? I somehow doubt it's gonna be that shallow in a wave pool
  8. Durrr... call me an ACEr, but is it just me or do those walls at the side of the pool dont look NEARLY high enough to be the supposed height the waves are going to be? Not to mention it doesn't appear to be a very high capacity pool.
  9. ^^It's not a coaster. I think even Jeff Johnson might agree. Zip lines are basically ropes streched form a hgih place to a low place, which have a pulley or wheel or whatever placed ont op of them with something hanging off of htem like a chair, a harness, a rope, or in this case, a weird skycoaster type taco looking thing. I have one in ym backyard htat my dad made when I was littl ebut sadly now that my feet reach the ground from the very highest point its used mostly as a clothing line. As for the subject of the topic... HOLY **** THAT LOOKS AMAZING!!! I really would love to give it a go. I've been on rediculously tall zip lines but that's insane. Reminds me of a zip line someone showed in a PTR recently where the top of hte zipline was a skyscraper. If I'm ever in south africa I should try and remember to give it a whirl
  10. Oh my gosh, that is jsut too cool! the x-car breaks while youre on it, first ride of the trip, that's just too cool and funny. i sense goot photo TRs on their way!
  11. ^Doesn't know that a furry is a creature that is half man half animal, like %75 of fictional charavers on the internet V read a good book recently
  12. ^Has an ironic cobiantion of screen name and avatar. VIs a briefs man
  13. ^The emails are in a foreign language nad the renders don't show up
  14. Happy birthday Will and Tom!!!
  15. ^Which is why I guessed it was a medical condition she was unaware of. Also, it said she's spanish, maybe it's like the case of the woman who died on Goliath at SFMM because she was from france and didn't understand the warning about medical conditions? I mean, sure those things are common knowledge to us coaster enthusiasts(and most of the common sensed general public) but for first time riders go figure.
  16. ^Heheheh. I find it funny. Around here there are alot of morons who spit on coasters, but the thign is, the main attraction at my home park is a boomerang, so usually it ends up hitting them back int he fact because of the inversions or reverse or I dont know what
  17. That's terrible. I'm sorry to hear My guess is she had a heart problem or some medical condition she wasn't aware of, but it's just a shot in the dark.
  18. I'm the only middle-eastern TPRer(who registered on the map). I feel so lonely. So very cold and lonely. I could make an air conditioner joke right now but I feel that owuld be in poor taste. *ba-dum-tiss!*
  19. ^Uh... no it didn't. I also don't really see nothing weird about that photo.
  20. Great video! Veryv ery cool and nice diting, too! I must say, thoguh, seeing batman and robin: The Chiller operate barrel roll free, and STILL only have the robin side operating, makes me nauseaus.
  21. ^ That should've made for an interesting onride photo
  22. ^ROFL WTF is all I have to say
  23. ^I guess that makes me one because I dont know what Vitriol is. I probably know what it is in hebrew, but I never heard that word in english before.
