DILinator Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Cannibal is still the greatest name for any coaster ever.Especially because it lives up to it's name. So, you're saying it actually eats people. Duly noted. I'll cross that coaster off of my list to ride! [emoji14] Nope, it just Eats all other Coasters in their Tracks. I see what you did there...!

Someday, when I'm visiting relatives out in Denver, I should just take a couple of days and come out to check out your fine-looking park (and devour Cannibal, of course!) It's not THAT much further away at that point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfoot12 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 So how is this ride going to be on the fatties out there? Have many people been turned away? I'd hate to make a 7-hour drive and have to take that walk of shame. I'm 6'2 and about 280, if that helps. I've made it on Bizarro (SFNE), Wicked Twister, Millennium Force, Top Thrill Dragster, Outlaw Run, and Goliath (SFGAm). Not as lucky on El Toro and Superman Ride of Steel (SFA). Since all body types are different, it's hard to say, however, one person I know that couldn't ride Goliath at Six Flags Great America and Outlaw Run at Silver Dollar City had no problem at on Cannibal. Gotcha. I'll try to shed some lbs in the meantime until my visit, which may not be until the second week in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall, Lagoon is pretty Fatty Friendly with 2 Click Rules/On Board Monitoring Systems and Big Boy Chairs on Cliffhanger and Samurai. Air Race, Rocket, Cliffhanger, and Samurai can be a problem with the Class 4 and 5 Restraints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They weren't always comfortable fits--cough..Lightning Run--but it was good to be able to ride. I'm sure I'll be good Lagoon but it's one of those things that always sticks in the back of my mind.

linearinduction Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 The Line For Cannibal that Starts at Sky Coaster should be 105-115 Minutes, if they have 4 Trains in the System., 120-130 if 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy T. Koepp Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Great Video! I especially liked hearing Elissa say, "That was great, did you like it?" at the end. Was she talking to KidTums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbalvey Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 That is the Lagoon Roll. Every time I hear that name, I think of sushi. I now want Lagoon to serve the "Lagoon Roll" sushi in one of their restaurants. Ugh, and now I just want sushi in general. "Lagoon Roll" sounds very tasty!

Not a Bad Idea for Lagoon to Cross Promote, kind of like the "Cannibal Dots" Dippin' Dots. It's also a shame you guys didn't get a night ride.

linearinduction Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I didn't know Cannibal dots was a thing. What flavors are in it? Red Berry (Red Sour Patch Kids) and Chocolate, and I must say, it's not a bad combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugh, and now I just want sushi in general. "Lagoon Roll" sounds very tasty! The element is even similar in shape to a sushi roll. A little red sauce carefully placed and the element could be replicated on your plate. it's not a bad combo. Having tried it, I can't really agree with your opinion.

It looks like it has a lot of potential to be awkward. If possible rate using sushi terminology. Great footage, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterCard Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Was there a reason for so much side to side wobbling in the POV? I didn't know if the car rocked side to side that much of if that was just how the camera was rigged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know if the car rocked side to side that much of if that was just how the camera was rigged. We had to use a chest mount, so it wasn't the smoothest video we were able to shoot, but regardless, I don't think it rocked "so much" either. I think we are just spoiling people with our normally rock-solid mounting to trains! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Awesome video! The view when the door opens at the top of the tower looks quite spectacular, with the track just dissappearing over the edge. Overall looks like a solid ride that has really put Lagoon on the map for any coaster enthusiast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
