Good Gravy- Holiday World- New Credit It's so cute. And its-- hilarious. Like... they went all-out something they absolutely didn't have to. They spared no expense on the entire area, the queue theming, and coster theming. The ride itself is made so much better because of the way the park cared...

Last month I considered traveling over 1,000 miles next weekend to ride it even before the opening date was announced, figuring it would likely open by July 4th... but as the opening date announcement dragged on, I finally had to commit to something else. Then like two days later they announced...

Copperhead Strike: It was fun. The roll out of the station tried to dump me out all 4 times I rode it. I'm not a huge fan of hang time, I prefer the G force to hold me comfortably in my seat in an inversion, but this ride never really did that, so it took some getting used to. Its seems like...

First top 10 I've really ever done. If there is a coaster that you think is missing, it's probably because I've not ridden it. 1. Millenium Force 2. Guardians of The Galaxy 3. Maverick 4. Twisted Timbers 5. Steel Vengeance 6. Alpen Fury 7. Top Thrill 2 8. Pantherian 9. The Voyage 10. Mystic...

Delivering one track piece at a time? That'll take forever. But I guess they don't seem to be in a hurry. I went to this park for the first time last October. Kinda strange to think that King Da Ka stood there for 20 years before I was able to get there, and then I was there the season after it...

I intentionally skipped Flight of Fear at Kings Island (it was the only coaster there I hadn't ridden) because I was coming up on my 100th coaster, and I was going to Disney World in two weeks for Guardians and Tron and I wanted one of them to by my 100th, and I knew Id' eventually get back to...

Rode a lot of new "to me" coasters last year.... and rode (believe it or not) my first ever Vekoma SLCs. I'd never ridden one before. None of them were good, but Flight Deck at Canada's Wonderland was the worst. And it wasn't close. Just a total torture chamber from the moment it started picking...

My number 1 has more to do with it being my favorite... than "the best." Millennium Force. I was 14 the year it opened, it was the tallest and fastest in the world, and just the fastest and smoothest thing I'd ever experienced. It was the rollercoaster that got me hooked on being an enthusiast...

The Voyage. Before I really got into coasters, I rode it by accident, not knowing what I was riding. I ended up at Holiday World while we were just passing through the area with my family; my kids were too small to ride anything, and I said "Hey I'm gonna run over and ride this wooden coaster"...

I got pretty intentional when I got close to 100. 98- Orion 99- Guardians Of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind 100- Tron I intentionally skipped Flight of Fear at Kings Island because I was going to Disney the next month, and wanted Tron to be 100. I've still never ridden FOF.

I think the 420ft spike looks good as it fits the rest of the structure, it will look like the train goes a safe distance up the spike without cutting it dangerously close, and the third launch will be needed, and felt to get over. I think the first launch will be the most potentially awkward.

An “old fashioned” rollback is still possible. Like.. it could still not make it over if it doesn’t get enough speed for some reason.

I think my main concern is the first launch being underwhelming. The first launch used to to be so unbelievably amazing. The anticipation of it all was sick. And now—- you have all of that runway to get to only the same speed as Maverick? Maverick’s launch is fine because it’s a small ride, and...

Maybe Zamperla threw in Wild Mouse for free as part of a TTD refurbishment bid.

Might be a Disney or Universal type of family coaster attraction with a ton of themeing that jacks up the cost?

Just got back from my first time at HersheyPark. Skyrush might be the most dangerous feeling roller coaster I've ever ridden. Those seats offer such little support. The restraints pin your thighs.... but THATS IT. The bottom and top of your body are totally exposed and free to move. I needed a...

I agree that the park desperately needs a high quality family coaster— and this location would work. Right near a family section of the park. Something like Dragonflyer at Dollywood. But- that’s not gonna make many headlines. And the Dragonflyer capacity is awful. I always thought Wicked...

Are masks not required at Universal anymore? that would be sweet. Also- full train? maybe they are shooting promotional footage? That would also explain the masks.

Thought I would update this if anyone is going to Dollywood soon. I was just there Aug 7-9 and it was closed all three days. Suuuuper bummed I traveled 8 hours to ride it and it never opened.

One day I want to hire RMC to build me a wooden fence for may back yard. Those coaster railings are so beautiful!
