Henry M Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Yay, mini Rage! Loved Rage, with the pop of air on the drop, and great loop and stall turn, and hang time on the twist and nice final helix. At first I was confused about not having the final helix, but this seems to work well, and makes the layout even more compact. This is what Gerstlaurer should have done before lap bars came in; small compact coasters, making the most of compact lift hill and steep drop. Why Saw! Why!!!

boldikus Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 ^Wrong video by chance? Nope. That's some weird TPR filter w/ FB videos. You have to quote the post and the link is there. You're welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightnin Loops Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 cant believe they want 10 tix to ride this. its $1 a tix. Thats the same cost as the cyclone in NY. Crazy. it looks to be a 28 sec ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They spent a lot of money rebuilding the pier especially to include this ride. It is not out of line with Jersey Shore park prices. I think it's worth double the price of a Wild Mouse. And that's why smart locals will take advantage of the Annual Easter Sale, 54 cents per ticket for tickets that never expire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're welcome. What's the actual video link? Never knew this was an issue as our FB videos we share work just fine. I'll check it out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Weird, I thought you guys did that intentionally. FB videos have been showing up like that for me on here (no matter who posts them) for a while like that. I figured it was a TPR thing. The video drummermatt posted a few posts above mine showed up that way for me too. A while back I figured out how to get around it by just quoting the post and finding the video link there. Anyways, here is what I was trying to post. If I try to link it using the [fbvideonew][/fbvideonew] tags it shows up as [fbvideonew] [/fbvideonew] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaellynn4 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 That's actually a really cool-looking sign. Definitely an exceeded my expectations of plywood with "Hydrus" written out in spray paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCoasterKid211 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 That sign is almost that of Universal-quality. Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 That's actually a really cool-looking sign.

Canobie Coaster Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 That is one of the best ride signs I've seen. Really looking forward to visiting the park this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJLehto Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Wow! Casino Pier has grown up a lot since I was 10 years old. Damn, I'm gunna be visiting home this summer, when I'm back in NJ I may have to swing by here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 So apparently the ride opens tomorrow. They also posted this POV/Reverse POV. [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] Kinda hilarious Gale Force still hasn't opened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaellynn4 Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Yea, suck it, Ocean City!! Maybe I'll head up, depending on the weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 So looks like Casino Pier got a lighting package on the coaster similar to Monster. Looks great! (I can't find video other than this Instagram post) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julioot Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 ^That looks so cool! Lighting packages like this should be the trend, not VR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Despite the horrible nature in which it happened the fact that this place was forced to start over and essentially rebuild from the ground up has made it a dramatically better park. Looking at that last video it's honestly hard to believe that this is Casino Pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 I think I'm going to drive down and check out changes to the pier and ride Hydrus today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
