RIP Psyclone Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 It's not a complete ride-thru, unfortunately, but it's the best vid I've found. It's a relatively new upload so many of you may not have come across it yet, plus I know how many of you loved the coaster version on the Midwest trip.

robbalvey Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Yeah, that ride was pretty bad and pointless. I remember going on it in like '96 or '97. I don't think anyone would ever miss it. --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haiderodes Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 So many warning signs for such a slow ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigstevet07 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 ^ That's because back then it had only one hill and the turn after the hill was pure pain. I remember getting stuck on the lift to get back into the mountain after that hill almost everytime I went on it. Although it was cheesy, I thought it was unique. I haven't ridden the new version, but that looks really unique. Of course, its been ages since I've been to IB. If I remember correctly, the falling star was the new attraction the last time I was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesdillaman Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I was just shocked to see TPR's POV of LoCoSuMo on youtube. I didn't think Robb uploaded them on there... -James Dillaman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameron Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 The "steep hill and turn" sign is actually still there - the park left it as a tribute to the old ride. Cameron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLIPDUDE Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 ^He did,a ctually. It's wandering the site somewhere. The old version of the ride looks so cool, too bad they took it out and replaced it with that silly old coaster. It looks pretty awsome, and the goat with the light flashing behind it... pure genius! Seriously, though, as far as replacing the ride with a coaster of the same concept, chart one awsome point for Indiana Beach, hard to beleive what the ride is now has ANYTHING to do with the ride I just saw.

WildStangAlex Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Oh the coaster is so much better than that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceace12 Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I was actually surprised how much air time it actually had. Though I don't rate it up as a good coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildStangAlex Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Oh, I love it as it is now as a coaster. But, but not too re-rideable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
