Paramount added some great rides towards the beginning of their ownership. Flight of Fear comes to mind first.

Could Vekoma Trains work on Vortex?
I never felt the needs for seat belts unless it it used for a way to measure if someone is too large to ride. In Diamondbacks case it is not.

I think the Diamondback is well known in the coaster community for stacking trains. You can thank the seatbelts for that.

Getting rid of physical queue lines and going 100percent virtual would solve this.

I would guess they will move them inside Flight of Fear at some point. Ps. I would like to buy a car from the park if they Re going to trash em. Make a cool patio bench.

I love seeing all the aerial photos.

Decoding 2020
Ride look awesome and I can’t wait to ride. My only dislike is that the final brake run is so high off the ground. It just looks strange. I guess they do that to keep the wear and tear off the brakes

Don’t you think they would make the supports first versus the track ?

Ride Wait Times 2019 Season
Some of the water slides line can be very deceiving. From across the water park lines not going all the way down the stairs. Walk Over to water slide and the realize you have to wait for a mat before going to the stairs. Sidenote: how come wait times for slides aren’t posted?

I would think that the all the braking systems would be designed to be closed when a ride loses power. It takes power to hold the brakes open.

But if your running both elevators and load/unload after the cycle at the saMe rate the elevators are still making the same number of cycles so I would think you would just have double the maintenance.

Ride Separators
That’s strange. Usually when I request front row and the line is long they make me go to a different row.

Kings Island 2019 Discussion
I believe they just hired for the position to manage this a month or two ago. Maybe they just rushed the program out and didn’t have time to intergrate it into the app.

Maybe they’re onto something?
The Woodstock Whirley birds is one of the smelliest places in the park. A good mix of BO/sweat/mildew

Im Not predicting this by any means nor do I know if these rides are still made but a ride like Roller Soaker could be a good expansion idea for the water park. I remember that ride always looked so fun back in the day Vortex is an iconic classic roller coaster to Kings Island almost as much as the Raver and Beast. I hope it never goes because the skyline will never been the same without it but if/when it goes something special needs to replace it.

Im Sure I have stood the full queue including the temporary ones and it took about 35-45 minutes. It all depends on how fast they are getting the cars out and how many people are generally getting into the cars. The queue house is really small IMO.
