robbalvey Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 I noticed the same thing...I was hoping that he would comment on the recent work done on I305 He did...but off camera...and I'm not allowed to mention what was said. To be honest, if the discussion in the KD discussion thread wasn't such full of "nonsense" (and that is exactly what Sandor called it - yes, he's read the comments), I would at least hint to what is happening, but unfortunately there are enough bad apples to have ruined it for everyone else, sorry! --Robb "More people need to put trust in what Elissa and I have to say."

The_Mad_Hatter Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Well, it will just be interesting to wait and see what does in fact happen with Intimidator 305. Just saw the new video--that helicopter ride looks INSANE! Does the peddling actually power the ride? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 All the "cool" rides are going to China... If I weren't stuck in college, I would so go over there in 2011. Great coverage as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandaman Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Everyone NEEDS to check out that GCI video on facebook, that Chris Gray talked about. Seriously piss-your-pants funny! "Oh, I'm not gonna fly off, dude!" Gets even funnier, the more you watch it! This. I didn't even know how fast he was going until he was at about thrice the normal speed at the end!

OISU8P Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Thank you for all the great IAAPA coverage Rob!!! Does Huss have anything new this year? I am wondering the same thing. I love Huss rides and they seem to have fizzled out in the past few years on installs. Are they really just doing parts now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEAPUgrad Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 he made it clear (twice) that I305 was from Intaride and not Intamin and appeared through facial expressions that he wasn't proud of it.... Anyone think I'm reading too much into this after watching the video? I'm no good at reading minds however Sandor was the Intamin/Intaride's rep at I305's Media Day. I don't know if "wasn't proud" is the right expression but maybe just a bit uncomfortable as he probably saw the question coming a mile away.

Chroniq Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 (edited) Robb- Are the vendors and exihibitors really candid with you off the camera? I'm always impressed with how candid vendors will be with me, when they know that I'm on the level and we are speaking in a one on one situation. (In a totally different line of work) I'd also like to mention (and I'm sure it's been mentioned before) that Robb could easily grill all of these manufacturers on camera in 2010, but then at 2011 IAAPA no one would speak with him. I hope everyone can appreciate his diplomacy. Edited November 18, 2010 by Chroniq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QueerRudie Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Robb, Elyssa and the rest, Amazing job so far. The quality of the porn being sent us is amazing... and that Launch wooden shuttle? Ahem. Kleenex, please. How about some footage from the ProSlide people? Some of those new installations look amazing all around. Thanks- "I need to go and watch the Wooden Shuttle Video again" R.D.

DenDen Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 I'm REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY enjoying this fantastic coverage, you guys always pull out all the stops. And it's funny, I was watching your youtube videos, and your 2001 coverage popped up, so I watched. Ahh, the memories of better IAAPA's, and your video was so different back then, but even then, you still had the best of the best! Love love LOVE IT! Thanks guys!!!!

Bonemachine Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 I'd love to see someone go into IAAPA and do a mockumentary. Set up a booth for a defunct company like TOGO and talk about these new products while placing a huge emphasis on SAFETY ... this time, trust us!

PortugePunk Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 The more and more I see about the Texas Giant redo, the more I am excited about it. I remember when I went to SFOT, that ride was so impressive looking... and then not that impressive of an actual ride. Looks like this will shape it up to be much more exciting and enjoyable. Also... maybe I'm a total nerd, but... I REALLY REALLY hope parks pick up on the light-up wheels!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortugePunk Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Luanched wooden coaster is the craziest thing I have heard in years. The idea worries me and totally intrigues me. I'm down to try it! Also, the high-five element is gonna be INSANE and cool! How has nobody done that before?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortugePunk Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 LOVE the idea of bowls mid-course form Proslide. I hadn't seen that before, but looks like it would add some really cool pacing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
