This park looks good so far. I love the idea and the fact they seam to be heavy into theming it is great. Nice to see a park pay attention to detail!!!

Am I the only one that doesn't think Led Zeplin looks that impressive? It isn't the lack of size, it just seems like an average coaster with some very unoriginal elements. I don't get the hype. There are going to be a lot of disappointed people out there.


Don't forget that this is the fifth B&M Sitting Coaster ever, the first since 2001, and only the 2nd in a US state other than Florida.

Thats one weirg Cobra Roll! It seems like thats how cobra rolls are now.


B&M has never been able to get cobra rolls right, and all the ones I've been on have had a bit of shuffling in the transitions. Maybe they finally got one right.

Actually, they were going to buy the Caripro Hydra Fighter from Emerald Pointe, but they changed their mind and purchased a brand new Premiere Rides Hydrofighter (the first of its kind) according to http://www.screamscape.com/iaapa/html/iaapa_5.htm

3rd in a US state. Don't forget about Wildfire at SDC in Branson, MO.

edit: Wait, I think I see what you did there. Nevermind

Cool, looks good. I was wondering when they would get to testing the ride.

Is the lift going slow due to testing, or is it normal and just the way I'm looking at it? Seems to float quite nicely though the roll though, and looks like it might be fun. I'll probably never ride it however, but still its nice to look at.

Yeah That's what I thought too. The lifthill also looked very steep to me.
But it's probably just the angle you look at it.

It looks really good!

It doesn't look too intense, but of course I can't judge just by looking at it.
