Rastuso Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 Just finished an AWESOME day at the Dells. First, I don't know what people are thinking. Mt. Olympus is a great park> Yeah, walking around for rerides sucks, but hey, you almost need it for Hades. Hades is amazing. It has speed in spades. It falls from being my #1 I think because it lacks some straight hills. But DAMN it has tons of speed, which I also love. It was slow this morning, it was cold and windy. But this evening it was hauling serious ass. As was Avalanch. Avalanch is amazing. Great hills, insane speed, and great turns. And stay in place rerides. But, since both do 250 an hour, ACE Con attendees won't have the ERT I had today. Ran into AirtimeJunkie and had a nice chat aobut coasters and ACE. Plus, Mt. O has great go-karts. My last track my kart was spewing out flames, according to other riders. It was backfiring like crazy. Kick ass!! Also, I HIGHLY recommend Wizard Quest. A 90 minute interactive fantasy adventure where you crawl through tunnels, solve interactive puzzles involving levers and stuff. You have to save 4 wizards by gaining points from answering questions you solve from finding clues. This place is kick ass cool! I want to franchise it. My son and I had an absolute ball. We were one answer short of saving the last wizard. I'm at 98 wooden coasters. #100 is hopefully being ridden at Valleyfair on Friday. Rastus O'Ginga part of Wizard Quest's Earth world
Rastuso Posted June 16, 2005 Author Posted June 16, 2005 OK, I don't know how to insert images, so can only attach them. I HAD to show this picture. I really wanted to go in, but was sorta afraid. Rastus
benzo41190 Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 I did Wizard Quest and i didnt know it would take so long. I am up to 79 on Hades and 101 on Avalanche (I love living sooooooo close). The one part about Hades I dont like is the fact that the turn is in the dark so you dont notice the 90 degree banking. Also it is very short but in a good way. Hope you go back some time
PhishyBrewer Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 I want to visit this park really bad. It looks like such fun. If I end up going, it's going to be a total "Wayne & Garth " Dells trip. Of course I would be Garth, and Wayne would be played by... your mom. Didn't want to go in to Nigs? Don't blame you. See all those Miller neons in there. Damn, you think they brew that stuff in Wisconsin... or is South Africa?
Jonathan Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 I agree, the Dells is freaking awesome. Friday was my first visit, and it is a wooden coaster lovers paradise. Hades is my new #1, Avalanche #3, and Cyclops #8. Zeus is pretty fun as well.
