Is it possible with Diamondback so close now?

Alright thanks you just saved me a lot of time and potentially money I was just going to visit all the stores

Thank you KI man

I heard the reason why the yellow supports are only on the lift hill is because they did not want the supports sticking out in the woods and ruining the experience

^ I was also shocked to see Son of Beast up there as well. Your right we do take rides like these for granted and compare them to something their not. Does anyone know how the CP fans talked about Maverick around their announcement?

Question do they have Diamondback t-shirts available to buy, if so how much? If not then any idea when they will start selling them?

Both wood

it came to a complete halt

yes i got a wet spot on my pants and Pepsi everywhere

^ Aw yes we do it had it troubled times but now is running just as efficiently as the other members in it's family. Sorry I had to defend it

O I been getting the newsletters but I didn't get this one

Ok I got no such newsletter recently.

Kings Island. Where Else?

Yes with a platinum pass you are a VIP at any Cedar Fair park, which works out nicely at 9 AM at CP

Of course there are rumors flying around upthere about Mean streak but none are probably true. See Delirum has to long of a line for maybe 3 or 4 big air swings. Max Air seemed faster and higher. I counted 6 big air swings and the ride did seem longer than Delirum.

Thank you KIBeast

I feel like it was worth it. Just remember without Magnum first breaking the 200 foot barrier we may not be talking the same talk about project 2009. Also Magnum is a great ride.

Arrived at Cedar Point around 2:30 on July 26, 2008 for Day 1 of our annual trip up to CP. The park was absolutely jammed packed on this day. The rumor of 65k in the park was most likely true. Although it was packed I never waited more than 1 hour and 30 minutes, which was for Maverick. I give Kudos to Cedar Point for keeping the rides up and the lines constantly moving. I started the day off with a 55 minute wait for Magnum XL 200. Great ride and I can only hope the Hyper coaster Kings Island is getting has just as much if not more airtime as Magnum does. Then it was off to Maverick. After Maverick we headed towards Mantis and saw the sign said 1 3/4 hour wait, so we decided to go ahead and wait it. Mantis actually on took about 1 hour and 15 minutes to wait. We then went on and waited about 20 minutes on Iron Dragon. After Iron Dragon, my family and I were getting hungry so we went to the Game Day Grille, this was around 8:25. It was about a 30 minute wait so my dad and I decided to go and do Blue Streak and Calypso since both looked to be walkons, and they were. I never realized Blue Streak was that rough. After dinner it was about 9:25 so we went over to the Iron Dragon midway and watched the Fire up the Night show. After the show we did a night ride on the Wicked Twister in the second row. After Wicked Twister the park was ready to close and so were we, we headed back to our motel. Day two began for us at 9:00 AM with our platinum passes getting us ERTs on Raptor, Millenium Force, Maverick, and Sky Hawk. In that one hour we did Raptor, Millenium Force, and got in line for Maverick, about 5 minutes before the GP. After Maverick we did the little Antique Caddillic cars beside Maverick. After our little stroll through the area ad no wait, we decided to try out Sky Hawk since it had no line. This ride is better than it looks, but it needs to go longer than it does. After Skyhawk we also hit up the Cedar Creek Mine Ride, this was only about a 10 minute wait. After this my dad knew some people and got us a free lunch out by the beach at the Coral Courtyard. So we stayed there up until 1 PM, then we decided to hit up the All Wheels Extreme show, GREAT SHOW. My only complaint is the skateborder guy really did not do anything spectacular like everyone else did. But only CP can take extreme sports and make it into a show, instead of a bunch of kids just doing whatever they feel like. After this show I felt like I needed to get some Airtime so we hit up Maxair. Being from Kings Island I have to admit that this put Delirum to shame. Maxair was just great. We waited about 30 minutes for it. After Maxair I still had not had enough of the sky so we went towards Top Thrill Dragester. Since the opening of TTD I had never seen the line so short. We waited about 50 minutes to ride TTD. Although it is only 17 seconds long it was worth the wait. We had 3rd row seats and it was amazing. After TTD we headed over to Demon Drop, since you never know when your final Demon Drop ride will occur. We waited about 15 minutes for the ride. After Demon Drop we went over to the Centinenal(sp) Theater and watched that Signed, Sealed, Delivered show and it was as well a very good show. I really didn't like that style of music but will say it was a very good show. After this we were tired and decided to leave the park and get dinner and start our 3 1/2 hour drive home. It was about 4:30 when we left CP. Now for some photos B&Ms!!!!!!!!! shut down all weekend Max air>Delirum. MUCH MUCH MUCH better than Delirum SNOOPY, almost as good as Scooby

Oh don't worry you won't have too long of a wait trust me. Last couple of times I rode it I waited outside the Crypt, which was about 20-25 minutes i guess

^ Thanks for clarifying that up terpy

^ Problem with that theory is the old style also only had 2 trains

Could there be another train being added to the Son of Beast? I found this on the KI website today. "Three trains, with six cars each, holding a total of 36 riders per train." http://www.visitkingsisland.com/attraction...l.cfm?ai_id=156

already been discussed way to much.

Absolutely no way it will be ready by HH. It going to be to big to complete. I would be happy with the first opertaion day of next season
