Hey PKIDelirium... I guess you dont know where the HELL section is at PKI. Its an area that is behind the Tower. Go there this year & I'm sure you'll understand what Im talking about. -
Well, thats nice to hear that PCW is a clean park. I have been to SFDL last summer and it was so dirty and the walls had so much gum stuck to them. What kind of people stick gum on theme park walls or any wall for that matter? As for the PCW rides, they have been getting better as the years go by. The Cliff Hanger top spin ride is one of my fav rides at PCW. You really got soaked on that ride which is great on a hot day. Im going on a 5 Day Canadian Coaster tour this year in late July 2005. It should be alot of fun. I think we are going to visit 6 theme parks all around Ontario and Quebec. Its going to be a blast! 8)

PCWFreak... You make it sound like Canada has no good roller coasters. But just look at how many coasters Canada's Theme Parks have to offer. - PCW has over 13 Roller Coasters. - Six Flags La Ronde has 7 Coasters. - MarineLand Niagara Falls has 2 Coasters. - Galaxyland Edmonton has 3 Coasters. - PlayLand Vancouver has 3 Coasters. And Many, Many More Canadian Parks. 8) Your right about the flat rides. Canada has the coolest flat rides in North America. 8)

Underrated Parks
CoasterCanada replied to What Now's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Thats why SFDL built a hotel right next to there theme park about 2 or 3 years ago. For me SFDL is the closest Six Flags Park. Even though it takes almost a 2/hour drive just to get there. I glad they have a hotel at SFDL caues that park in located in the middle of nowhere. 8) -

I also think Six Flags - The Great Escape sounds odd. What were they thinking? :shock: -

So you do know where the "Hell" section is at PKI then. Thats good cause most people dont know where that is located. I think both Italian Job rides are going to have the same lay-out and paint job. 8) BWT - Theres a "Hell" section at PCW too. Its right behind Wonder Mountain. -

I think the PCW Italian Job ride is in a better location then the one at PKI. The one at PCW is located near the Great Canadian Mindbuster and the Orbitor ride in a new theme area called Action Zone. I think the PKI Italian Job ride in located in a themed area called Hell! - Hehe! 8) -

What is your local park?
CoasterCanada replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
- Paramount Canada's Wonderland - Toronto - 40/min. Drive. - MarineLand - Niagara Falls Canada - 45/min. Drive. - Martain's Fantasy Island - Grand Island NY - 1/Hour 20/min. Drive. - SF Darine Lake - Darine NY ( Near Buffalo NY ) - 1/Hour 40/min. Drive. - You just got to love driving of that dame CAN/US border!!! Grrrrr! -
It dont cost you that much to ride a roller coaster or any other ride for that matter. They have a cool Coaster Called "MindBender" and a Space Drop ride & other cool stuff all indoors. They now have a $25.00 all day Ride Pass that lets you ride all day & all night long. Your better off getting the ride pass then having to pay $7.00 per ride. Last time I was there they had over 25 to 30 rides. It was a blast! Spike your right about the G's on "MindBender" Its the very last loop that with almost make you black out. There is alot of things to do there Splash_Mountain. Are you staying in the Themed Hotle located in the West Ed Mall?

Worst Coaster Ever?
CoasterCanada replied to Mind Eraser's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Your right Xxcrazzy_goodxX... The Predator at SF Darien Lake is pretty bad. I thought some of the woodies here in Canada were ruff but then I went on The Predator last year and found out that it was twice as bad. After reading this page I really dont think I want to ride any roller coaster in California. They dont seem to be very safe. BTW - That ride in Las Vegas called "Manhattan Express" looks like its ready to fall of the track. SCARY! :shock: Another thing that is scary is the $12.50 Price tag to ride it. You would think they would put some $$$ into fixing the ride. -
Hey Rastuso... Ya, Centerville is on the Toronto Island and it has a coaster called the Island Monster but its just a family ride coaster but its a pretty fast ride with lots of fast turns. - La Round used to be the old Expo 67 located in the ride area so thats way there are weird looking statues and fountains. As for the Teenages line jumping, there are now signs posted everywhere that say in french "Not to line jump" with in small print "You Will Get Kicked Out if You Do This". - Your right about Marineland, it takes forever to walk to the good rides. All of the cool rides are way out in the back of the park. I think its beacues they dont want to scare the animals. The place is like a zoo with Bears, Deer & Whales and Fish. I wish they would add a mono-rail in that park. - Next time you visit Toronto, go visit Paramont Canada's Wonderland. Im sure you will like it there. They have over 13 Coasters there. 8)

Best Drop Ride!!!
CoasterCanada replied to coaster_shorty's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I found out on the Marineland website that the Sky Screamer is a 350/foot tall drop and blaster with three towers stuck on a 100/foot man made mountain. That Dragon Mountain coaster stuck on that other man made mountain was at one time the tallest & longest coaster back in the late 80's. It has a 186/foot lift hill with four loops and three tunnels. I just wish they would build more coasters at that theme park.
