atem122 Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Man you really got unlucky with the crowds, oh well from the looks of it you got to ride everything you wanted. Was Poltergeist closed or did you just not catch it in action? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianscoasters Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 ^^Thank you!!! I think my camera is dirty or something, because the pictures have a bit of a "graininess" to them. ^I didn't get to ride Boomerang, sadly, but it was either that or Rattler, and I have been on two Boomerangs, so I decided Rattler. Polty was testing in the morning, but didn't open until around 2:30 or so. I didn't get any pictures of it in action unless you see a picture I took of something else with Poltergeist in the background running. Damn, now I wish I would have taken more pictures of it. EDIT: Here are a couple of it in the background: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
U2Rox Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Glad you got pics of the Giant Frisbee. My brothers and I call that the Ralphenator for it's ability to make everyone throw up. I remember every time we would try to ride it was always closed for cleaning!! Ha! I Love Superman!! Great Photos!! Thanks for posting!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreditCrazy Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Very nice pictures. Too bad SFFT was crowded too, just a bad week. Do you think one of the Batman clones was more intense or smooth than the other? Or were they exactly the same? Also, did THBS spin a lot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianscoasters Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 ^Hmm ... I can't remember B:TR from SFMM very well, other than our feet hurting when we got off. Goliath made my feet hurt a little bit more than Great White, but I'd say they are both about equal. If I *HAD* to choose which one was more intense, I'd say Great White. I'd say Great White was smoother as well. THBS spins depending on who is in the car. Ours spun just about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deguy123 Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Wow those are great pictures Thats a great looking park, hopefully one day I'll make it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianscoasters Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 Great White isn't actually a true clone...it had all of it's "straight sections" shortened a decent amount and therefore is more compact, which adds a little speed and force...it's easily my favorite BTR (although Goliath is cool because it drops the other way). Did you notice Polty's brand new coat of paint? The ride looked soo good yesturday. I'm really upset I decided to not bring my camera as it was a great day to take pictures as the rides took forever to get on and the weather was great. Poltergeist DID look great! I was thinking that while waiting in line. It's very shiny and really stands out. It's amazing what a simple coat of paint can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wood Dragon 1988 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Great pics dude. I don't think I could ever take that many pics of a park! I can't wait to go to SFFT with TPR in August. I just realized how many "big for their type" coasters SFFT has. One of the biggest Arrow Mine Trains, B&M Floorlesses, and Woodens. I sure hope SKC has more forces than I am accustomed to on my three floorless credits. Anyway, great pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
