  1. It will be interesting to see how far in the future that is. If I was a park and I looked at SOb and all its problems and its success, I would not consider a looping roller coaster unless there was a new better way to pull it off.
  2. None of those videos showed its speed of 135mph. It has not reached that speed yet. Some rumors say while testing at lower speeds something exploded.
  3. IM not sure, its hard to find a video with the rest of the ride, they all quit out after the breaks.
  4. I see Vortex. It was the "big" coaster at Ki when I was growing up. (mostly because I was scared to death of The Beast until I was 9 or so.)
  5. As most of you know, Ring Racer, a launch roller coaster loacted at the Nurburgring race course in Germany is supposed to go faster than Kinda Ka along a Formula 1 track. AFter the launch, it just does this quick turn around thing then hits the breaks and goes back to the station. They ran some test runs at 70mph just to test it. This is not close to the 135mph it is supposed to go. It was supposed to open August 15th, but I heard something happened, some rumors even say an explosion. Screamscape doesnt know, does anyone here know what happened? Wikipedia Page Screamscape Page Discuss:
  6. 1st row on beast is a great view and ride.You have to try it. As for fof, I dont think it really matters since its all kind of dark in there. I prefer either the back or the front on Fof, but I usually just take the middle when the lines are long.
  7. Ive never seen it. It looked good, but was very unrealistic at times. Standing next to the antique cars? Then when they were passing off the things, 2 different people ran thorugh international street.
  8. I want a standup at KI. I never got to ride King Cobra
  9. -Knock Down Crypt. Start a whole new area. -In that area, 2 new flat rides, A Swing and a larg Ferris Wheel. And a new kind of coaster over 500ft. (not just a launch and return coaster) -knock down FLight Deck, and use the same station, but build a inverted coaster cimilar to raptor and theme in creativly.
  10. Does anyone know the timeframe when the names/new rides will be annonounced?
  11. So once it was closed, it still stood for 2 yearas before being taken down?
  12. wow, this is a tough 1. Adventure Express though. Ive rode it since the beggining. I once did a 20 ride marathon when i was 7.
  13. A ride op on Millie: "We will be taking you up to a height of4 ft 6inches. We will then be dropping you 3 feet down at a 45 Degree Angle! Enjoy your ride on Milliium Force."
  14. They cant just be burying the coffin, maybe its a special coffin that lets you breathe?
  15. Loose screws? Like a loose screw will destroy a roller coaster. these things are 50x more reliable than riding in car on the interstate.
  16. Ive always found roller coasters a great way to know people. Whether it be going up the lift hill or sitting on the brake runs, you learn alot about a person in 3 minutes.
  17. James Bond: Licence to Kill. (under rides and attractions) What was that?
  18. I wanted to see the Weasly's joke shop, Zonko's sucks. And not many good rides. Only 2 new rides? I was expecting more. (this is assuming Dueling Dragons is Dragon Challenge)
  19. Just saw this park on the news. They said the marquee ride was harry potter's forbidden journey or something like that.
  20. I wont really miss much as Nick came after I had retired from those kind of rides. I will probably miss the theming of wild thornberries. That was really well done.
  21. No, its going to be inside Islands of Adventure where Lost Island or whatever it was called is.
  22. Hopefully he stays to reach the rip old age of 80. His future isnt at Kings Island anymore though
  23. Ranked from best to worst: 1. Flight of Fear. The best steel in the park in my opinion. 2. Firehawk. Great flying coaster 3. Vortex. My first looping roller coaster. Classic ride. 4. Invertigo. Long waiting lines+a short ride makes this my least favorite.
