sfgoliath Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Is Kumba a good ride, because I am thinking of doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesdillaman Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 any ride is worth riding once, I think if you ask most people in this communnity, they'll agree. Kumba, IMO is actually worth a few rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimace Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Kumba is a very solid ride. Some people may not LOVE it, but you'd have a hard time finding many people who really hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trustkill22 Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Hahaha Wes. I never really thoguht of it that way. Â You and your sick dirty mind. Â And I have to agree that any ride is worth riding so go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwistedTrack Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 A lot agree that it is one of the best B&M's! Â EDIT- But dont stick your hands out of the car! Haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Robb and I tag teamed Kumba! 3 times in a row! it was awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Three Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Three times? Pfft. Â Me and my friends had a 5 person orgy going one night, back when they didn't make riders get back in line for a reride. We tapped that ass fourteen times, baby! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 At least buy it a drink first. If you're cheap like me, just hit up the hospitality center. Â But... yeah. Kumba was one of my first coasters and it's still one of my favorites. Awesome cobra roll, long tunnel and that weird wavy section of track after the zero-g. Â Be gentle...

ChrisFL Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 IMO it's better than some newer B&M's like Kraken, and it's still one of my favorites, must do every time I go to BGT (oops, BGA) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 I did Kumba from the back. FYI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStig Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 ^Yeah me too wes, in fact, I did kumba all over the place. Its a lot of fun, but as hott as it was a few months ago, the makeover it got makes this gal a real thing to be seen with, you'll like it...

Guy T. Koepp Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Three was enough for me! I'm an old man now. Not when I was like 18. I could go all nite. I now choose quality over quantity. Kumba gives a good ride after all these years. It has aged very gracefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebl Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 "I did Kumba from the back." (wes41190) Â Not that there's anything wrong with that... Â I was at BGT back in 2002 and had the chance to "do" Kumba, but it broke down before I could get there. Oh well, next time. Â Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoasterFanatic Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 I used to live a couple blocks away from BGT, so Kumba is kind of the "girl next door" for me. I've had her so many times that I know her like the palm of my hand (did I just say that). Â I have always been partial to doing her in the back, but every once in a while I like to do it in the front. I just love the view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I believe the phrase you were looking for was, "Once you go bacon, you never go kraken." Â Cause I loves me some bacon, and I never done Kraken.

Jon Sabo Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 I believe there was another posting on the site "Fav coaster, but afraid to admit it to others(?)..lol  Kumba is that ride for me. I recall opening day when Michael Richards (Kramer from Seinfeld) and it was hilarious. The ride has all the classic elements that I look for: vert loop (through the lift!!!), corkscrews, a tunnel, good helix at the end, that small speed bump (before cobra roll), and who can forget about the Immelman (to me, one of the best inversions to date/next to Dive loop), and that cobra roll is pretty good. The best parts is riding at nite...but whooo that 0-g roll is probably the BEST of all B&Ms (back row). I can't figure out why, but this is one of my best all time classic rides (sit-down version anyway..lol).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Yeah, it's a dive loop. Twist up/invert/dive down. Immelmen is the opposite, obvs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
