Personally, I absolutely LOVE Afterburn at Carowinds, and could ride that ride all day long. If Kings Island does end up getting an inverted coaster, then I will be happy. It would likely have inversions, and Kings Island`s last coaster with inversions was Invertigo, which offers your standard boomerang inversion package. Not to mention, if it does end up being a B&M invert, it would be another B&M ride that is a capacity machine, with limited down time. That being said, we have no guarantee what type of ride it is going to be yet, let alone the manufacturer or name. Some people will not be happy, no matter what type of ride Kings Island installs. As The Interpreter has said, just be happy that Kings Island appears to be getting a new ride. When was the last new ride installed at Dorney Park? Or Michigan`s Adventure? Well Michigan's Adventure and Dorney Park are CF lowest attendance parks so that would explain why they do not get new rides. Cedar Point and Kings Island are the top 2 parks they have. Wrong. Canada's Wonderland and Cedar Point are the chain's two highest producing seasonal parks. Right. Because when Flight of Fear and Invertigo were installed, Vortex and Flight Deck were doomed.

Goodness gracious. Banshee isn't considered "taboo" anywhere.

Who knows? Maybe Valleyfair, Dorney, or another park is getting a new ride named Banshee.

Implement a no loose article policy??? If such a policy was ever implemented, you would be the first to complain that the park is digging into your wallet to force you into buying a $2 locker for your belongings.

^It hasn't been broken, most likely, because it was so darn expensive.

First trip to Kings Island
I think you mean Firehawk and Beast.

First trip to Kings Island
^It should be noted Adventure Express does not have an on-ride photo as well. As for Fast Lane/no Fast Lane, if you are not planning to visit the park soon after, go for Fast Lane because both days will be packed and you might not get a chance to experience everything in one day, especially a Saturday. However, make sure you wait until you get to the park and do this because the park might be dead due to weather or other factors, eliminating the need for a Fast Lane.

Mmm..now that's kinda tasteless. Terp's probably the most respected person on this board and to call him out doesn't seem right.Oh and BB1 never really "left." He was active just yesterday.

Non expensive eateries in Kings Island...
You can refill souvenir cups from THIS YEAR for a dollar. You may not, however, bring your own food to the park.

The Next Cedar Point Coaster
Cedar Point offers parasailing, which is a ride in itself. Seriously, if you've never been, you have to.
-
The Next Cedar Point Coaster
There's a thread for Cedar Point's next new coaster, too.I guess the thread is now relevant!

Move One Ride from Anywhere in the Country to KI
Especially when our BLSC is superior to the other two rides.

Terp, I realize that. But 2009 it was rivertown, 2010 it was Planet Snoopy, 2011 it was coney mall, 2012 was Soak City (renovating) 2013 Rivertown (non ride) and 2014/15?? is Action Zone. I just thought I would throw it out there thats all.Oktoberfest? International Street? Parking Lot? Tower Gardens?

Rumors about Coney
Didn't say they did. The current Flying Eagles didn't either. I was listing some of the rides that moved to Kings Island... Saying "the bumper cars" could get confused pretty easily.And ^no, Shake, Rattle & Roll was not brought from Coney Island.
-
Rumors about Coney
The current bumper cars did NOT originate from Coney Island. When Coney Mall was refurbished in the 80's, the original bumper cars brought from Coney Island left and were replaced with brand new cars.

I believe STR Boats v1.0 were too heavy.

Kings Island Time Lapse Video
The video makes me wish the Diamondback splashdown was lit better.

Going alone to Kings Island
I've ridden one coaster alone in the past three years and it's an awful experience for me, personally. Waiting in line alone isn't very fun because there's nobody to talk to, and riding alone is somewhat boring too because you don't get to enjoy the ride with a friend. Of course, this is just my opinion. Experiences will vary.

No, CF would never allow that. Only CP can get record breakers.Why can't people get out of this mentality? Dick Kinzel is gone.
