Im just thinking, comparing it to Diamondback and The Beast which is longer that a new ride should be as long. Too many rides out there that are short.

As a new ride lasting only a min and half, yes it will be a fail,IMO. I love flight deck but nobody rides it now, you make the long walk over there and its always empty, which is its only selling point to me because you can ride it over and over. Take a new ride and make it short, plus having to wait 2+hours..ill not ride it much.

I hope it has three trains, fast loading and fun to ride, also it can be record breaking but if it lasts as long a flight deck, then I beleive it will be a fail.

Diamondbacks water smeels a little funky.I stay away from the very back since I got wet and smelled like vomit all day.

Your KI Coaster Rankings
#1 Diamondback...Every drop and hill is awesome. The feeling of weightless when you dont hold on with hands or feet is priceless. #2 The Beast....Time proven coaster, two lift hills, finale, its all great. im not a fan of most wooden, but this one is in a league of its own. #3 Flight of Fear....The launch, the speed, the loops and turns and the darkness! #4 Vortex....If you ride in front of the car its awesome, its thrilling got corkscrews, double loops. Cant go wrong with it. #5 Flight Deck...Very smooth, nice G's and love the banking, only downfall is that its short.

FireHawk Problems
Uncomfortable, with diffrent restraints this ride could be awesome. I feel the seatbelts\padded restraints barely click in. Ride op told me that the plastic grips people hold on too are known to break.

Firehawk, long que, no thrill, just unconfrontable and scary- Starting to Decode 2014
what ever it is it will set the tone for what Cedar Fair will do to our park.- Trip Report 5/30 - 6/5
lol yea 4am sorry- diamondstack 6/16
I had a ride op in a hurry pull up on my arm not the restraint and keep going. I get the feeling some do it just for they camera. This Is very dangerous. Almost everytime I see us waiting on a train its not the ops fault its waiting on someone who took their time at the bin. one night i was there last week the girl running Diamondback didnt allow you to put your stuff in the bin she had the ride ops do it and it seemed much faster. Its alos getting out of hand what ppl put in the bins. I seen one dude dragging a bag with a huge stuffed animal in it all the way through the Que on Diamondback, not to mention his buddy with the annoying basketball.- Trip Report 5/30 - 6/5
Skyflyer IMO is not worth paying for it, even though I only paid 5.The wait for it was 30 mins with just a few people ahead of me. You get the same feeling if not better on derlium. Also didnt feel safe and wasnt that thrilling. But I want to say I rode everything. It really didnt get boring, but yea on the last few days I quit riding Flight deck, derlium and stuff like white water canyon. Last few days I rode Diamondback, beast and Vortex (5-1) the most...ps Diamondback will never get boring.- Starting to Decode 2014
Its neet to see the footers before and that they notched the concrete for the support to go inside. that tells me its going to be huge. Unless that is standard.- Trip Report 5/30 - 6/5
My trip report or my mini vacation lasted 6 days. We stayed at red roof in mason, cheap room that was nice. First day was not crowded, so we pretty much rode as much as we wanted. Me and my future wife. Monday and tuesday was very crowded 45min wait on The Beast, wendsday we bought fast pass and it was still crowded so it made getting the fast pass even better. 4th of july was empty, rained almost all day. Very disipointed that day because they didnt say open untill 12. Went back again friday and rode alost everything one time before we went home. Few things I would like to share our imput on. First off love Diamondback, its my fav coaster we must had rode it 30 times that week, no matter where you sit its awesome. The Beast always a fav, but have discovered that the middle seat and not a whell seat is way less rough. smae thing applys to The Racer and Adventure Express. Vortex one of my favs now too but its a must to ride in front of the car your in, beats you to death in the back seat for some reason. I marathoned it sunday x4 in seat 5-1 and wasnt that beat up. Flight of Fear only rode it a few times bc girlfriend did not like it. Flight deck almost always started off out day. Invertigo i love but she hates bc the whole leaning against restraints scares her to death. Backlot if a fun ride but not worth the wait, they were stacking on it bad, all three trains at station is a norm. Firehawk is not fun at all IMO, very uncomfrontable. Rode Drop Tower, and skyflyer...which i hated lol. Delerium is not as intense at the one in camden park, its over before it gets started. Only ride i need to say i rode everything is slingshot and im doing that this weekend...thank you seson pass. All in all had a blast, excuse the poor grammar bc its 4am and im half asleep. P.s. The people who work Festhaus LaRosa pizza should be fired, we had to make them take our order, while they were all talking and acting up and paying no attention to customers. Anyways Love Kings Island in one week we went from somebody who has rode a few coasters to a full blown roller coaster enthusiasts.- Least Favorite Ride?
Vortex is alot better ride if your ride in the front of any car. 5-1 is the smoothest of any seat. something about the back bounces your to death.- Starting to Decode 2014
