new ride suggestions
PKI Pilot, they can move the skyscraper game after all it is trailer mounted and the jump 2 does not take up a large footprint. Plenty of room with the lazer tag building gone. And why call it the King of Beast when it is not as tall as the son and copies the orginal. Trying to make coasters that copy off of great ones never turns out good. i.e. The Mean Streak is inspired and tries to simulate the Texas Giant. Uhhh here was a horrible idea. Extremely Violent ride = Extremely Violent and Crappy ride. The next big coaster at PKI needs to be steel, whether it is a hyper/giga or a multi invertor.

Dropzones Breaking System.
Nicely explained Matth.... This question is just like asking well why doesnt my cell phone get yanked out of my pocket when I am waiting for FOF and it launches or even IJST. Anyways folks your cell phone better be in a closeable pocket when on rides. Afterall secure all loose articles, then you wont have to worry about your phone beeing ripped from your pocked as you ride drop zone.

What the?!?
Yeah cause the one at Carowinds looks and is more exciting than ours. Just a little missleading advertisement.

The most FrIgHtEnInG poll ever!
PsychoPath was crap this year! Way to ruin a great haunt.

Yeah the Jump 2 is a very neat ride, how about theming it to Sky Captain. Not a very popular movie in theater, but a great movie non the less. Would make for a good theme to.

Info needed on Defuct *pay* PKI ride
I remember that ride. I was pretty young then, but remember being in the boat in the gunner position and my dad driving the thing around. I just remember balls flying everywhere and the sound of the pneumatic guns going off. I would love to see some pictures of it, because I had forgotten all about it.

3 hours of travel time if you go the speed limit. But that is no fun and it takes too long.

2008- New Paramount Park in Nashville?
Gaylord is done with the whole Themepark idea and for that reasson it begs for Dolly to enter the Nashville market, which would bring additional guests to her main park. Think if with your Dollywood seasson pass you had a park to go to in Nashville also. Would definately boost attendacne from both and would also pull visitors away from SilverDollar City in Branson, which was big competition for Opryland.

2008- New Paramount Park in Nashville?
No Paramount Park in Nashville, endo story. Dolly will be the only person that will even try and bring a park back to Nashville as she expands her empire once again.

Ahhh taking out the tunnel is just one more way that Psycho Path has become the worst haunt of the year. Good job on killing a great haunt. Nicely done, hopefully next year they will turn all the lights on for Maze of Maddness.

favorite inversion
Immelman on a B&M Inverted has to be my favorite.

SOB closed for the season?
Metal wheels on flat metal track. Its going to be rough especially at those speeds. P.S. if you dont like a topic dont post on it and dont waste your time reading it.

SOB closed for the season?
Well I am not renewing my pass because Guest Relations will not answer my questions about the nuddist colony and how PKI does not support my desire to camp naked at the park. Therefore I will use some of the idiotic logic that some members of this site have and not support PKI because they do not support my naked camping desires..... Honestly people if this is the true logic you have and your entire reasson for not going to PKI next year than you are a complete idiot and I hope you are not of voting age, because we do not need morons like you helping elect the leaders of this country. Only good thing about you idiots is that next year I will not have to wait in line with you. Thank god.

Santa Clause IN. A little more than 2 hours from cincy. Great small family park with two excellent wooden coasters and I do mean excellent. Check it out next summer.

God arent we all nerds arguing over what types of coaster trains are on what coasters. I love it

PKI to be no more
CBSKI CBS' Kings Island. Ahh I can see it now, the Everybody Loves Raymond ride and the Survivor Live action show.

SOB closed for the season?
I am hoping that PKI can get the kinks worked out of SOB and if that means new trains, new track, and reworking the support system then I bet we see it in time. PKI will get it right and SOB still has great potential. I love the ride, but can only imagine how amazing it would be if it were as smooth as Raven, Gwazi, Legend, or even Ghost Rider. Just imagine that ride.

Campground not for 2006
So when does the nudist colony open up??? Once again as many have said GWL will provide a nice stream of cash with no expenses tied in. Also from what I have heard GWL will be 400 rooms and not the previously mentioned 200. This will be much bigger than the one in Sandusky

Campground not for 2006
I guess I am one of the few that was glad to see the camp ground go and make way for Great Bear Lodge. GBL is one of the best decisions for PKI, basically a large money stream for free. No brainer decision for PKI if you ask me. They may put a campground back in, but I am sure PKI does not miss the rampat under age drinking that happened at the campground and also the numerous fights when they had senior night. I welcome GBL with open arms and will be booking my room ASAP

FEARFEST 2004
The new version of HOD is great. I love the story and also the extremely freaky pictures of the girl. Great attraction and worth repeating.
-
SOB closed for the season?
I agree MeanStreak gives a worse beating than SOB afterall it was designed after the Texas Giant at SFOT. Two of the roughest woodies out there. I heard a rumor that they are starting to run a KingCobra train on SOB, Togo is going to be contracted to retrack SOB also. I cant wait till I can ride standing up on SOB

Addams Family Attraction YES or NO?
Yes I saw the concept of the Dive Machine. Remember it is just a concept...
-
Addams Family Attraction YES or NO?
But I honestly dont think the Addams Family ties in well to a thrill ride. Too me the concept of an Addams attraction just screams family oriented attraction. IMO Italian Job screamed more thrills than what the Addams does and we see how ITST was made for families.
-
Addams Family Attraction YES or NO?
I would love to see an Addams Family themed attraction, that is if it done right, but I do not want to see it in 07 because PKI needs to build something for the thrillseekers. I honestly cannot see them adding that many family attractions year after year. Therefor I would expect to see other Paramount parks get an Addams attraction in 07 and then PKI will get it in 08.

SOB closed for the season?
The Texas Giant at SFOT. The Texas Giant is the coaster that Mean Streak at CP was designed after. The Giant is absolutely brutal because of the open trains and the xtreme latteral g's. The Wolf Bobs at Geuga Lake before they were completely retracked was another painfull ride.
