dammie16@vt.edu Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Technically they don't HAVE to do anything lol Can't wait for hot death footage!
SharkTums Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Got tons of footage of the ride so you should all be happy. Skara was awesome and we're now on our way to Grona Lund!
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 I have my caption sent in. Man, KidTums is growing up fast! She can already fit mostly into the test seat for the Mega-lite. All she needs is a little more height and neck support and she'd be off! Talk about complaining she only got 2 credits on Grand Carousel....
Jerrykoala2112 Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Does anyone know how much Skara Sommarland costs? In Swedish Kronar? I looked on the website and the English part hasn't been completed yet.
SharkTums Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 OMG!!! I'm pretty sure Insane is in my top 10. Grona Lund is amazing.
_Joel_ Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 I can't wait to see the photos, even though I have already visited Liseberg, Gröna Lund and Skara Sommarland this year! I hope Tranan worked as it should. They had some problems with the ride last Friday when I was there. But I could go on three times! I live very close the park, so you almost passed my house on the way to Stockholm
_Joel_ Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Does anyone know how much Skara Sommarland costs? In Swedish Kronar? I looked on the website and the English part hasn't been completed yet. It costs 249 SEK for a day!
BeemerBoy Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 OMG!!! I'm pretty sure Insane is in my top 10. Grona Lund is amazing. So is it safe to assume this would be your new pick to occupy Flashback's old spot?
Jerrykoala2112 Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 But it probably doesn't have that high of a capacity to be at any major amusement park
Phaota Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Here is the new coaster. "Fluch von Novgorod." If you think you can pronounce this correctly, record yourself saying it and send an MP3 file of your pronunciation to Dan! mrt0ad13@aol.com The winner gets a bag-o-crap! Making an voice MP3 is quite easy. You just need a microphone, a program like Goldwave (which I use daily) and the record your voice. Then edit it and save as an MP3. Simple as that. Here is my entry for the name saying: http://rapidshare.com/files/245395802/Fluch_von_Novgorod_by_Phaota.mp3
Dan Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 /\ Thanks! Seriously in 2005 Balder ran FREAKING AMAZING. And in 2006 Balder ran AWESOME. But tonight... OH! MY! FU*KING! GOD! Balder has totally redeemed itself as my #1 wood coaster in the world. I'm not sure how it did it, but tonight that ride totally BLEW AWAY T-Express. More importantly... how did Jenny's replacement run?!
Frankiboi Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 WTF is a Wolkow?!?!? Is that a cow on a wall? Probably, Wolkow says a russian when he is too drunk to say wodka.
Guy T. Koepp Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 ^^Who is Jenny's replacement and will she dance on your jock? For that matter, who is Jenny? And if she still exists, does she still dance on jocks?
GeorgeT Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Hey Guy...tell me, you`re a comedian. Tell me that you do what you`re born for...please ! GeorgeT (Sry, a "little" off-topic. Will not happen again... )
Guy T. Koepp Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Hey Guy...tell me, you`re a comedian.Tell me that you do what you`re born for...please ! GeorgeT Only in my mind George. Only in my mind. But right now, I am looking forward to more Scandi awesomeness. Guy "Cause Scandi 2009 is what it's all about here!" Koepp
atem122 Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Sounds like an awesome trip, cant wait for more updates Time to hit a dead horse with a stick here: Back at Djurs, by TPR logic, I believe Piraten should rank higher with you guys than kawasemi due to the fact that it has a tunnel. (Assuming that the tunnel is still there)
SharkTums Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Posting from the ferry about an hour from Helsinki. It's been an amazing ride over. Gorgeous smooth tons of things to do and of course awesome cruise ship sleep! We're still all talking about how great Grona Lund was and hopefully the Finnish parks can try and keep up with that! And yes tunnel on Piraten is great but I still prefer Kawasemi.
Sir Clinksalot Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 The lack of updates tells me you are all having an amazing trip and having too much fun to post. And that's the way it should be.
Dan Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Posting from the ferry about an hour from Helsinki. It's been an amazing ride over. Gorgeous smooth tons of things to do and of course awesome cruise ship sleep! All I remember from '05 is smelly fat trucker & the legendary $#!+ and shower! No catastrophic DHL disasters on this trip yet either?
SharkTums Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 ^Nope. Trip has been awesome, ferry was awesome, now we're on the long drive up to Power Park. Should have an update up tonight.
Mark3181 Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Hello. Lovely pictures. I have only been in some of the danish parks since i live in Jutland and i am going to Djurs sommerland in one of the next days. They have clearly improved the park a lot in the last few years.
Anac0nda Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 So you have already reached the grounds of Finland. Welcome! So, tomorrow it will be Power Park for TPR. Is it going to be Saturday in Särkänniemi and Sunday in Linnanmäki? Anyway, I'll be working this whole weekend in Linnanmäki; Friday and Saturday I'm operating a water ride, Hurjakuru, but about Sunday I have no idea. I'll be sure though to say hello if I meet you!
SharkTums Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 We're halfway through our Thunderbird ERT right now! Then back to the hotel for our reception then I'll yell at Robb to post an update!
