Big Sexy

I have and I stand by my philosophy. Apparently other parks do too, because there are only two in existence. If ki built a rocket there would be 3-4 hr waits excluding downtown.

A giga's first drop down into a underground tunnel would be dope.

B&m coasters are a snooze fest. The older ones are better like BTR, raptor, formally iron wolf, nitro, montu, kumba, and apollo chariot. Yes you don't have to have tall rides, intamin jr & mega coasters are outstanding.

Stunt track & Vortex at ki. I love all the coasters at all the other parks I have hit up.

Intamin giga and hypers are far superior to b&m. Intamin always pushes the envelope while b&m is more about a cautious reliable ride.

I too have a feel for the layout. Oh wow I haven't seen this photo. I'll have to go and see this for myself. This is very interesting. Can I share this photo? I see it too!

If you haven't missed it, I have been saying intamin. Are you that guy that looked like van wilder on beast crew in 04?

It took ki 27 years to get a steel coaster from a major player (arrow dynamics does not count). Other paramount parks recieved b&m, intamin, & s&s' s. Ki is due for expansion of QUALITY rides.

If you take revenue minus expenses for new rides ki would have the best ratio for a Cedar Fair top 5 park.

Only our filler coaster won't be a POS vekoma boomerang.

So the 2014 coaster will be a "fake" coaster? Smaller coaster like wicked twister then ttd the following year. Ki has been deprived of thrills for years with paramount installing POS rides themed to POS movies. We are lucky to have gotten SOB. While other parks recieved b&m & intamin inverts.

We already have that POS stunt track with multiple launches. 21 million for a maverick ride or 25 for a giga.

Maybe this will be a filler coaster to the real coaster for 2015?

Intamin supports for those footers.

If it was a vertical spike then yes.

Mf, car 5, seat one parkside for the best air. Magnum car 1, seat 3 for the best air. All others 1st row. Magnum is best in the summer when you can see hot girls in Soak City while your in the ejector seat.

I wonder if montel williams can get a job at the park.

Don has 11,999 Racer rides. What was your point again? Anyway, far more importantly, thanks Original for a great trip report on a very busy Saturday at Kings Island. No disrespect to the don gentleman but spending 400hrs of your life riding that POS seems like a waste of time.

Yes, we've noticed. I already brought it up on the last page... http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/27275-starting-to-decode-2014/?p=519781 Contradicting what? I don't have a problem with the jackhammering, it gives character. Mrs. Sexy does not like it due to the jackhammering. There is no new track for a different ride at the plant. That is a wing coaster going to europe. My source must be mistaken. I saw intamin track. Hook, line, sinker.

What's so difficult to understand. Older b&m's are smooth, new b&m's jackhammer. Its either the design or the steel fabrication.

Either the newer b&m designs are off or the steel, its your call. Less qc in the steel fabrication is a huge savings.

Its people like that who gives enthusiasts the stereotype of being weird.

Its the steel fabrication from clermont steel. The least bit of the track being off shows up big time at higher speeds. All newer b&m's all jackhammer in the rear of the train.

Bored?

It's going to be a intamin giga watch and see. 4breast seating with lapbars.
