What is the best ride in Kings Island?
I really like Surf Dog. It's kinda suprising how much force that thing has! I thought when I first rode it, "it's a kiddie ride. It will be nothing." Wow was I wrong! And Diamondback of course.

Would 1972 KI Survive in 2010?
Sadly, i don't think so. Culture seems to like a ton of rides more then stores. But, wow! I wish we stilll had some of those stores! and the food! That must have been amazing to eat at these places.

Backlot Stunt Coaster Trains Being Stripped of Their Theming
I kinda agree with both sides. It's not the best looking thing, but it's not bad. I think someone mentioned this before, Some light decals would do wonders for it.

Roller Coaster Track Question., PICTURE SIZE FIXED.
I thought that, but I never seen crane pieces that curved. I would have taken some pictures but I couldn't pull over/. I might try to go get some pictures today or tomorrow.

Roller Coaster Track Question., PICTURE SIZE FIXED.
I was coming down route 9, right by the wilder exit, and in the Maxim crane yard there was some roller coaster track. There was mainly curved yellow pieces, but also a few red pieces. I never noticed this before, has it always been there? I now have pics! I apolgize for the quality I was kinda far away. It kinda reminds me of chang. There is also in between this track a large amount of bright blue supports

OFFICIAL! Son of Beast Will NOT Operate in 2010
^ Kings Island could really set the standard for Hybrid coasters. That seems to be the only solution that seems possible.

OFFICIAL! Son of Beast Will NOT Operate in 2010
I noticed in my ACE newsletter that the texas giant is becoming a hybrid. Also, they are going to re design it to have the steepest drop. Why don't they make SOB a hybrid, and then bring back the loop. Wouldn't it still break some records then?

Halloween Haunt 2010
Last year Halloween Haunt was crazy! We had a ton of people, but the people I worked with told me the year before it was dead. I guess it's hit or miss. There also is minor laws that come into play to. When the minors leave it can really cripple a maze.

Has this happened to anyone?
I was kinda worried about saying something, because I know they read these forums. but I was just wondering. It's kinda weird how these things happen.

Has this happened to anyone?
Yesterday, I was riding in the back row of Diamondback, and like everytime I reached back during the splashdown to get my hand wet. I got off the ride, and noticed my arm was burning. Where I had touched the water my arm had red lines that were raised and I had red dots on my hand and arm. I noticed the morning that the lines were actually scracthes that had scabbed. I assume it was something to do with the chemicals, and brushed it off. I was just wondering if that happened to anyone else?

Closed Rides
I was on The Beast train that had all the issues. We got into the station and the lap bars would not release. So they had to manually release us. I felt bad for the other people because I knew it would cause a mess.

White Water Canyon's 25th Birthday

Question about Rides
I was on The Racer, and two girls behind me had their cell phone out taking video. I didn't know if I should have told them to put it away or not. Luckily, they were able to keep a hold of it.
