I've seen this bug happen once or twice. The only way I've seen to get rid of it is to restart your browser.

I'm uploading a new version of the video to see if that helps with streaming.

lol, I was looking at the guy with the mean looking face then realized it was me!

Kawasemi in my opinion was the best steel coaster of the whole China/Korea/Japan trip. The TPR trips just keep getting better and better each year. Can't wait to see how you top it in 2009!

A US park needs one.

^Or you could just go to Japan or Scandi with us! ;)

I almost don't trust a US park not to somehow screw the coaster up!

I would love to see Knott's get rid of Perilous Plunge and put something like this in that big, under utilized space.

^ I totally, unequivocally second that motion. I think this is the only time I will advocate for Knott's getting another coaster! =)


On a related note...does anyone know if Goliath (the one in Europe) is considered to be a megalite? It's under 200 ft, but somehow it doesn't seem so 'megalite-ish' to me. Can anyone clarify?

Goliath is classified as a Mega Coaster.

I think Holiday World should add a mega-lite in a couple of years. It would be perfect for them as their first steel coaster.
I remember when I used to be into Nostalgia...

I would like Knott's to NOT get one of these so that way I don't have to go back there.

I prefer them building coasters that I don't care about! =)
