Photo TR's; Kennywood 7/9/11, Darien Lake 7/16/11


Recommended Posts

So I got back to Kennywood, and I loved it, still it's good old traditional self. And I must say, Skyrocket is PERFECT for Kennywood. Every part was perfectly placed; the there was great airtime on the top of the first hill, in the bunny hops, AND in the inversions, there were plenty of positive g's, and the surf curves were just plain FUN. Thank you Premier for stepping up your game for my home park.

 

Darien was good as usual, minus their misfortunes with the Ride of Steel, which was a bummer, but still it was fun. The only downside is EVERYBODY in NY state came the day I was there. But still, I got another credit on Boomerang, and I am now starting to think Boomerangs are underrated, cause this one was quite fun, like the one I rode in Six Flags Fiesta Texas. The only Boomerang I haven't liked was Sidewinder in HP. Also, Predator was much better this time, I even got some floater airtime. The only catch was, I was in the front row for both my rides, so I can't say how it would be further back.

 

Oh, and hi to the random TPR member I spotted on Predator!!!

 

ON TO THE PICS!!!

This was the tallest ride of the day for us, due to the RoS catastrophe

The Ranger. I loved it, and I see why it's so popular. The restraints crushed my stomach on the first ride, but my second ride was much better and comfortable. Man, that ride just doesn't end.

Funnel slides are so much fun

UU.thumb.JPG.dd8c0a4d6794191c27dbea4b96fdf5e8.JPG

Predator. I loved it this time, now I only rode in the front seat, but man it was fun. It was still rough, but not kill you or break your spine rough. Just a fun wild ride. But I'm not sure how the back was, I didn't want to ruin my experience.

More Vekoma sexiness. The more I ride Boomerangs (this is my third), the more I like them. The only one I didn't enjoy was Sidewinder at Hersheypark.

Motocoaster; was closed most of the day, but I had the credit already from '09
