Don't know if anwsered yet. It wasn't a POV, sorry, it was more a filming of the entire ride. It's on the "The Professional Amateur Videographer Forum!", use the search engine and search for Oakwood on that forum and you'll find it.

WHAT IN THE TWISTED HELL IS THAT???? Can coasters actualy DO that? 
Awesome update! This looks like so much fun, and I'm getting more and more jealous. So much eye candy.
And sheep.
But mostly eye candy. The girls are looking nice too.

Looking at Speed, I am now willing to support those who want Flashback to be replaced. ^You could have spared us the poop picture. Hopefully Perilous Plunge will be unbutchered soon.

All these pictures are megaginormousmeatasaurus Rex! You all are having a ball.
Thank you all for posting pics. We are living vicariously through you all. Mostly, thanks to Robb and Elissa for planning what seems to be an awesome trip that allows us to live vicariously through you all.
Keep up the great work.
 Most of all, have fun!

That is why I probably wouldn't have brought my camera on the trip... at least not to the parks, I'd just steal other people's photos
