As a season pass holder, they will only see my money for this once. For a family of 5, that's $25 just to walk in. They already rip you off for $50 at the food stands and have 4 pay attractions. Really a shame as both my sons love dinos.

This thing is going to be much taller than people expect. I'm excited for the one at Knott's.

I can't wait to ride these and the Skyscreamers. But couldn't they think of better names for all of them?

Holy poo-poo! I didn't really have a visualization of how tall it would be until then. Pretty freakin' epic.

I wouldn't be shocked if KD saw one in 2012 at all if they are a success this year for Knotts, CP, CW, and KI. They need something big to attempt to compete with Busch Gardens' launch coaster, and considering they just got a giga coaster, I could see a Windseeker being a smart choice (not very expensive either). I actually hope we get on in 2012!
