I expected a lot of this park and BGE was great.

Apollo's Chariot : the flat part near the water after the second hill is awesome.

Interlocking goodness.

It's great on front row because of the 'hanging'. But it's GREAT on backrow.

This gimmick is SO great although you don't notice it on the ride.

Griffon : my favorite ride at BGE

Great B&M invert.

Alpengeist : the long first drop is great.

888060705_DSC04683(Medium).JPG.a910afeaaa53416925902186c84f2330.JPG

Wow ! Darkastle. I didn't know they had a 'Spiderman' attraction at BGE. I adore that type of attraction although I must say I preferred Spiderman over Darkastle.

14983705_DSC04680(Medium).JPG.3decde14f1328c2b625721efafbdda9e.JPG

Big Bad Wolf : another Arrow I love. I wonder what the forces would be if that last drop would not be trimmed.

684302517_DSC04679(Medium).JPG.dd5b247268e3e7a6b01226d80b302a43.JPG

I loved this Arrow. Those interlocking loops are looking great.

Inside it gets hot though.

5/30 : Six Flags America

 

Last park of our tour.

We only had a few hours in this park as our flight was scheduled at 5 pm.

 

Crowds were very light so we didn't even have to get a flash pass.

1329442760_DSC04744(Medium).JPG.23eff37f416c3ec4152462404b54246d.JPG

Shaky, pointless helixes, no airtime on the first hills.

808191114_DSC04743(Medium).JPG.1e9321fc3efec2a9b6abe9b607f13140.JPG

Unfortunately it was a disappointment.

1725328233_DSC04739(Medium).JPG.7a4b56c8fd7fbaa5a1eb3c046dea1cbe.JPG

We expected a lot of this.

924747026_DSC04742(Medium).JPG.8fb105163f10e384b1e974fac44bf8a6.JPG

Batwing : I liked this one better than the one at KI.

778072659_DSC04738(Medium).JPG.a97a29e1121ceab3c5863fa21ec607ad.JPG

A lot of steel.

772115341_DSC04737(Medium).JPG.e9c0613c44933dfc768317fef9c8d56e.JPG

Joker's Jinx : best ride in the park.

786820541_DSC04736(Medium).JPG.1aefcea43b57aba8f0b6a87105577380.JPG

I heard gp's say that it's an excellent ride. I don't agree.

1629786272_DSC04734(Medium).JPG.471e19ebfd983f9946dfa503ece69bbf.JPG

Roar : an impressive woodie.

965707685_DSC04729(Medium).JPG.625064e4ce19d531801cd4904f07f4ad.JPG

Wild One : good woodie except at the point where the track gets straight again after the turn around.

Summary :

 

We drove 2364 miles & visited 13 different parks.

 

I got 110 new credits including my 200th credit (Chang) and 300th credit (Griffon).

We only rerode the coasters we really liked so we ended up at 151 coasterrides in total, 221 inversions, 88 miles of track and about 16500 seconds of coasterriding.

awesome TR! thank you for doing such a great report of my home park, Kennywood, glad you loved the coasters there

 

Also, Hersheypark was sweet too. Can't wait to go again and see if Wildcat is any better that last time with the new trains, and of course Fahrenheit, Stormrunner and Great Bear.

 

-AWESOME-
