Imagineer Josh Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 2 DAYS OF CAROWINDS Went to Carowinds yesterday to check out Fury. Faster than a speeding bullet! (Superman Escape from Krypton, I bet you are angry! ) Beauty! 25 dollars of wasted money right here. Vekoma's broken, why am I not surprised? DAY 2 OF CAROWINDS Entrance of dominance-ish.... I like carowinds! Moar Station Photos.... I WANNA GET STUCK.... lol no I'm scared Forgot to paint a connector? Your killing me "smalls" (oxymoron yay) I brought my cam on Intimidator because why not? Why wasn't this spared instead of Thunder Road? Oi... Gonna be seeing a Floorless conversion soon That's all folks!

Coaster Hero Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 2 things 1. Great TR! I like the unique angles you got, I actually saw Fury's station up close for the first time in these pictures, as well as the lift up close and the weirdly shallow footers. 2. How in the world did you get away with bringing a camera on Intimidator? Don't you get in trouble if they see your camera on the ride-photo? Did you possibly get permission?

DoinItForTheFame Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Nice photos of Fury!! Some nice angles we have not seen a lot before! Fury sure is a beautiful coaster!!! 25 dollars of wasted money right here. I highly disagree with this. I think Slingshot rides area amazing, and worth the $25. Especially if you are riding one with someone who has never been on one before, or if it has been a while since you've been on one. I love the acceleration of them!! 2. How in the world did you get away with bringing a camera on Intimidator? Don't you get in trouble if they see your camera on the ride-photo? Did you possibly get permission? I'm going to assume since the coaster was sitting on the brake run that he simply removed the camera from his pocket and took the photo. This is actually more common than not. NOT saying that it is "right" or "allowed" but I have seen a LOT of people do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Hero Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 ^I see. That's a sneaky way to brag . I actually was fooled. Also as for the slingshot, though I've never been on one $25 dollars is a bit much. It's the cost that prevents me from doing one, as I usually don't bring too much cash to the park. I know at some parks it's $15 dollars which is a lot more reasonable. $25 dollars is over half the admission to most places Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaster Hero Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 ^Yeah, a friend who moved over to Ohio told me about that too. It's a great deal, plus I've heard those things are a lot of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imagineer Josh Posted September 20, 2015 Author Share Posted September 20, 2015 ^ I think I forgot to mention that at my home park there is a Slingshot. That's why it's a waste of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Hero Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 I just noticed that in that first picture, F325's spine looks like it has fingerprints/hand smudges on them . I wish they were mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterkid124 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Every aspect of Fury is just so photogenic. They did an awesome job with this coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster1000 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Really great photos! I enjoyed your TR. How did you find Fury? I've heard pretty much only rave reviews about it, but for some reason, I just can't get excited about the layout. Those of you who have been on it: What makes the ride so good?

Coaster Hero Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 ^Haven't been on it but from what I've read, lots of retained speed (until the helix which really looks like it kills the pacing how enormous it is), and lots of interesting transitions that will give you air while changing banking, like the "treble clef" turnaround that dives under the bridge. Oh, and I've heard the last few airtime hills give you borderline ejector. I'm sure someone who's rode it will give a far more accurate explanation though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
