traincrossin Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Front row "Ow ow ow, my ears!!!" Â Fantastic photos Hanno! Those zoom shots of the riders are amazingly clear.

cal1br3tto Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Those coasters look niice from backstage! Thanks for sharing your shots! That tour almost killed me because of the heat, but in retrospect it was totally worthwhile! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted December 15, 2010 Author Share Posted December 15, 2010 (edited) Day 10: Mt. Olympus  Let me think.. home to Hades (the one and only) and don't forget about Cyclops (one of my favorite rides out there) Waterpark with big wave and yeah.. i'll shut up at this time..  I don't remember riding anything that day... i guess i just enjoy taking pictures. Anyway.. here's a few images from that day. Early morning rides are always fun today was all about this dude.. the gate to the "underworld" forget the ride, it's all about the dude with the shirt. It even says: it's all about me this might take a little while how they managed to tangle up.. i'm still not sure.. back to the usual program, it's coaster time front row TpWake before... after... and even more after... out of the station let the credit whoring continue yeah, guess it's time to clean.. time for some cyclops images mama we're flying high hairtime payback time or just sitting at the wrong side?? priceless backrow it looks so innocent Spinning fun while the big kids were riding coasters.. yeah.. crowd.. aussie...

mattnz Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 I can't believe a few people actually managed to keep their hands up on the back row of Cyclops. I didn't DARE! Fantastic photos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal1br3tto Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Wow! Those Cyclops shots really capture the intensity of that drop! I'm not sure I've ever seen airtime so well-documented before! Â ^Haha, I think Cyclops may have been the only coaster there where I did put my hands up. I know I didn't want to risk my arms getting lopped off on Hades or wrenched off on Zeus, and I may not have bothered on Pegasus or the mousey spinny thing, cause they're so lil'.

beatle11 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Those Cyclops pictures are incredible! I've heard the stories about the airtime in the backseat, but wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryH Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 I rode Hades last year and it was very intense. I had to sit down after each ride because it was so intense! I didn't try the water park, as I forgot to pack my swim trunks. Â I also remember Mt. Olympus employed a lot of East Europeans. It's like they held a job fair at the Czech Republic!

saginawhxc Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Hanno I just now read the last couple of pages so I was a little behind on this report. As always great photos.

RoCo Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Those "Cyclops" photos are indeed hysterical AND perhaps the best advertising for the Dells that I've ever seen. GOTTA get there one day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karezza Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I found myself behind in the coaster world when I saw the front of the Hades trains. I thought "When did that happen?". Don't worry, I just did a little research and found out. Â I love the third picture of Cyclops with the man in the back seat and how the seat belt is holding him in. That's a lot of airtime! Ya (With a Minnesotan accent)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastercrzyjames Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Wow!! Amazing photos of Cyclops Hanno!! That ride was totally insane, airtime wise, and I love seeing the photos that were captured to prove it. Thanks for sharing some good memories.
