There is virtually no chance of that. Those of who have ridden B & M hypercoasters know what you are in for. Prepare to be pleased. Very, very pleased.

I don't know anybody who loves any coasters that doesn't love B & M hypercoasters...

Terpy one word N.I.T.R.O ;).

And from reports I`ve read on Behemoth, it blows all prior B&M hypers out of the water in terms of overall experience. If Diamondback is any where near as good as Behemoth, we are all in for a real treat, and arguably the best steel coaster at Kings Island.

As many coasters as I`ve ridden (which is still a drop in the bucket to many), I have never experienced a B&M hyper coaster.

Adventure Express will still be the #1 steel in the park... enough with your silliness.

wooo post 2000 B)

Nickels to Dollars.... wow ... quite a difference if you ask me Mr. Terp.

and I have to ask does your meal include a drink? :P

Or in deference to Delirium_Guy and WooferBearATL, Goliath....

Terpy, who loves them things....

Ah, yes, Goliath :-) I still haven't had a ride on Nitro that has even came close to the intensity of the airtime on Goliath. I was very, very surprised after riding it....cause I'm not the hugest fan of the B&M hyper coasters. I feel they are inferior to the Intamin Mega Coasters. I have read many good things about Behemoth, so hopefully that bodes well for Diamondback. Regardless, this is quite possibly the smartest addition to KI in the past decade or so and LONG over due.....the GP will eat it up.

I am far from nervous i am ready to be perched a top a massive hill and ready to take a vertical plunge to a speed of 80 mph. I have riden one other B&M hyper and that was Apollo's Chariot at BGE and i must say it was one of my best coasters i have ever ridden.

If I have a blast on TTD, then I'm pretty sure that DB, will be just fine.

But that drop pullout seems a bit forceful. But I'm sure MF's drop pullout is about the same force as DB's. I don't know, but we'll see in April 2009!!!

If you don't know what I mean by DB's drop pullout...

Where the yellow is, that's where I think ALOT of force will be pulled against you.

Bring on the forces.

I've never been on a B&M hyper, but you can bet my hands will be in the air all the way on this monster. It looks more amazing every day. I'm ready to ride.

You sound like me. My hands will be in the air on my first ride too. After all, I can't appear weak in front of my children, who did their first ride on MF this year without holding on......

Well I have always not been to fond of heights but Im sure ill do fine. Its only standing or sitting in a place way up in the air for long periods of time that really bother me =)

So i take it Tuskin that you do not enjoy riding my baby. Shame on you!
