PKI Jizzman Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Here's a quick play by play. -Diamondback tour was canceled due to sheets of ice all over the park. -We got a tour of GWL....it was pretty much a showing of the hotel rooms and the place. -We walked through a foot of snow for 10 minutes -Walked up into the International Street Restaraunt...right above the ticket booths. Enjoy the photos! Oh wow, it's been quite a while since I've seen these two. Suspended....ICICLES! The Lobby of the GWL...now home of the Diamondback Model. Waterpark....THROUGH THE WINDOW!!!! Woah woah woah....there's a coaster in there? My credit count goes up one. 'Okay....so you can either walk through the North Pole....or drive over and walk half way through.' We walked. Oh yeah, we got to look at the new coaster, too. It starts there....then goes allllllll the way overrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr here. [ Invertigo's looking nice....blah, I still don't like that name. Face/Off! Face/Off! Face/Off! I tried to hold it in. Diamondback communicates with aliens by using those probes on the side of the lift. I can't wait for this hill. What we're all here for...well, i think. We'll get to meet Diamondback eventually. Diamondback....THROUGH THE TREES! Ryan, our KIC leader. Thanks for the event! Gordon's all...'grr....I never get any face time with Don' The lift's the thing that stands out the most. A close up. Diamondback can be seen from everywhere. A very beautiful coaster....beautiful. Time to switch lenses. Kings Island's International Street still covered in snow. Signature shot. Tag yourselves. Some parts of the International Restaraunt. Create your own name tag. I see junior wooden roller coaster 1. Sign covered in snow. Vortex popping up over the frozen trees. It's all about Diamondback. Nick Licastro of Boomerang Bay and park cleanliness. He claims KI strives to be the best...even over Holiday World. Best of luck! Robbie giving a history/info lesson on CI and KI. KI looked pretty much ike this all over. And finally.... You've all been waiting for it.. Da cool table. It was really fun talking to different people from KIC's forum. Thanks for the good time even though there was some improv needed because of the lack of the Diamondback tour, and I'll be back on the 21st.
Electerik Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Awesome. Thanks! The event on May 9-10 is really tempting me, but I'd have to cancel some other (bigger) coaster plans for that month. Also, I'd have to join a club of some kind again. But still, Diamondback is looking great.

All you have to do is sign up on the forums! www.kicentral.com They have a thread that will give you all the details...and it takes a minute or two to sign up! OH! On a side note, I was allowed to ask a question pertaining to Diamondback. I am still wondering about the possibility of a single rider line! And Don Helbig says they are 50/50 on it. There's already a line that can be used for that all the way out to the entrance, or they could have one like Maverick's....which is kind of a rip off single rider line, IMO. -JZ
Electerik Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 ^ Man, I walked right into that one! Thanks, though. I hadn't realized that. /I guess ACE is never gonna get me back.
