  1. This is my home park. I'm extremely happy to see what they did with what little space they had. This is a great addition to a great family park.
  2. I figured I would start a thread for people to ask about specific coaster experiences. If there is a coaster that you have not ridden, that you are really interested in the experience, then ask it here. Most of us know about the big boy rides. What about coasters that look like a great ride, but people don't really talk about. I will start with this ride... Sky Rocket - Kennywood This looks like it would be a blast. For the people that have ridden it, what did you think?
  3. I don't remember the name of the place. It was at Seaworld Orlando. It was a BBQ place towards the back of the park. We where expecting crappy food, and it was amazing. Real southern BBQ, we where amazed.
  4. Yankee Cannonball @ Canobie Lake Park on Saturday. It was actually running better than past years.
  5. I'm not a Club TPR member as of yet. However, I will 100% be there if you open this up to everyone. I couldn't imagine a better way to spend July 30th, then to get ERT on Bizarro.
  6. Here are a few cell phone camera pictures of Untamed that I took today. They are running the cars with dummies. I can't believe how quite this ride is. It also almost completely stops when going through the loop. It's also amazingly compact. Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us
  7. What a shame... I hate taking a day off and spending hundreds to ride a measly 5 rides. That happens to me all the time. You figured that the new ride would reduce lines for Medusa, thought wrong I guess!
  8. Massachusetts officials say four people are dead after at least two tornadoes swept through western and central parts of the state. Scott MacLeod, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency, confirmed the deaths Wednesday night but said there were no details about the circumstances. He said two people died in Westfield, one in West Springfield and one in the town of Brimfield. The storms have also caused an unknown number of injuries and extensive damage. Gov. Deval Patrick declared a state of emergency and called up 1,000 National Guard troops. One of the tornadoes struck in Springfield, the state's third largest city. Watch Tornado Here
  9. Great TR! I have never visited Sea World SA. I have been to the one in Orlando several times. It's my second favorite park behind Epcot. I really enjoyed the walk through at Manta. It gave you something to look at while in line. I was there the year it opened, the line was over 2 hours. Fortunately, I rode alone, and Busch provides single rider lines! Steel Eel looks impressive. I just can't stand the looks of the trains. It looks like you can barely see out of them?
  10. Wow! That's very interesting. I'm wondering if this is similar to the flume ride at Holiday World where it's an elevator style?
  11. Alvey - I have seen your videos for the new Twister at Grona Lund. This ride's statistics are mild, but the ride looks amazing. This looks like a unique coaster with lots of quick pops of air. They just build a smaller version (if you can believe that) of this coaster in Connecticut. I'm thinking about taking the trip to ride it. On a scale of 1-10 what would you rate this ride? Also, what kind of air-time are we talking about when riding this thing?
  12. I apologize in advance if this has been asked. Just curious on what coasters got better after being refurbished. If a wooden coaster got a new track, or if a steel coaster added or subtracted an element. What where your best and worst refurbished rides. I don't really have a best. But, I would say the worst would be cyclone at SFNE, after making the first hill smaller. It use to be out of control before they made the hill smaller. You would get insane ejector in the back row. I have also heard they refurbished the track for this season, wondering if it made an improvement? Also, I'm going to go out in a limb and say that the New Texas Giant will take the prize for the best one?
  13. The Great America Scream Machine- Six Flags New Jersey However, this was back in 1998. I never rode it after that year. I'm wondering if it became rough, or it always was rough? I really enjoyed it back then. Maybe it was just nostalgia.
  14. SFGadv in the 90's for Batman the year it open. I waited over 3 hours in 90 degree heat. They where selling slushies for people in line, i had 5 of them that day.
  15. This was my first time on Toro, but it was awesome! Can't say if it was running good or not. If it was running bad, I can only imagine what it would be like on a good day!
