sspaz1000 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Great couple of updates I can't wait to start getting more parks and coasters, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I love this ride and don't understand why more weren't sold!?!? I can only imagine it must be some sort of maintenance nightmare or something. Very intrigued to ride some of the 'Version 2.0' ones in China! This puzzles me, too. I think this is the best coaster S&S has ever built, even if it is a "Frankenstein" job.

Meteornotes Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 ^I agree with both of you. I loved that ride, and would probably put it in my top ten steel. I'd love to see more of these built in the US. dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadster Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 What powers the launch of powder keg? Great photo by the way. I have it saved on my phone. Air launched catapult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godwyn Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 (edited) Powder Keg was a surprise hit for us when we visited SDC last year. I was thinking Wildfire was going to be the best one there, then we rode this one. We kept running around and getting back on! Edit--Just realized this was my 666th post! Woo Hoo!

simon8899 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 At ringracer you see what nightmare air-compressed launch systems are, I'd also steer well clear of it as park-owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 and i'm back Today i bring you 2 (more) picture from last years halloween "adventure" in Orlando. Hope you enjoy these images from Magic Kingdom First up: Sunset around Big Thunder Mountain Second bit: two images from the bride in the Haunted Mansion. Let me know which one you prefer or Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinning man Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 The second bride one for me. I remember the first time I rode the haunted mansion, the ride stopped for a few minutes and I was stuck beside the bride with my brother. Very fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I know this isn't what you meant, but I prefer the one of Big Thunder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisco Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I Think I like the first bride better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeemerBoy Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I'll vote for the second one. I'm pretty sure I told you the night you took that, but it's worth repeating....that's a frickin' great shot! I'll bet most people don't realize just how tough it is to nail the Disney dark ride shots properly without use of a flash...especially the Haunted Mansion ones. I'll offer up a new challenge for ya this year...the Caretaker and his dog (and not the one in the parade). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 ^ somewhere in my mind i already had a picture of the caretaker and dog.. but i can't find it. Not sure if i'll have the chance to try again this year though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 (edited) Update time. Today i have a picture from 2011 for you. It's Gwazi from Busch Gardens Tampa enjoy. Edited June 14, 2012 by Hhappy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeykaise Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I like both brides, one for each arm that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 The bride photos are really good. Like someone else said, taking decent photos inside one of these rides without using a flash is very difficult, so you've done an amazing job. dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilltopper39 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 ^And taking photos inside the ride WITH flash is very annoying (to the other riders). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ernierocker Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Only one person in the Gwazi photo looked like they were in pain. Something must of been wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisco Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Only one person in the Gwazi photo looked like they were in pain. Something must of been wrong. But only two people on the whole train were holding there hands up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperShawn Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 How on earth is the person in the back row smiling? That seat darn right killed me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 So which coaster/picture for today? How about multiple? Back in 2008 we had awesome weather while visiting Europa Park. Here are some picturess from Silverstar during that visit. enjoy. and as a bonus (since i will be in this area again pretty soon) If you see this.. you should be able to smell the Raclette stand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon8899 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Lol....never had problems with my glasses on a coaster...hate it when ride attendants make me taking mine off. At Liseberg they even let me wear them on Upsvinget! Way to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
