i was thinking more of this, from one of my favorite musicals:

not technically "downtown" but it says it a lot.

I thought the park replaced skid row with north and south poles about 9 years ago?

Not even is the ride no longer called Manhattan Express (see: Roller Coaster at NYNY), it isn't even a standup. Didn't see where anyone had pointed this out..

It IS a TOGO, and a pretty darn good coaster too..

Lets also mention that TOGO went out of business.....

...or, we could read post 14 of this very thread:

Terp, ribbing Tom...

I'd absolutely love a stand up at Kings Island... oh well

get B&M on the Line

I'd really not want a stand-up at KI. I rode Mantis at Cedar Point and it was HORRIBLE.

There's a trick to riding a stand up-you bend your knees a little and just stand against the back board. I like them personally-they are adjustable to height and weight and very accomodating to most.

Still, no thanks. I'd rather have a Dive-Machine. From what I know from waiting in line for Mantis, stand-ups seem to have a very low capacity.

I was at Cedar Point last weekend and they were able to move the entire line full of people in 45 minutes.

Same here, I was there last saturday and sunday, but the line was only 10 minutes at the most...

And I found Mantis quite fun, it feels more aggressive than Chang. Which is odd, but then again the trims were off

And I don't see what's so horrible about a stand up, windshawne, could you explain? Was it tiring on your legs?

I would love a stand-up; does B&M still hold the rights to stand ups? Because last I heard intamin's not allowed to make one... and B&M's not making fair use of their "rights"

There is at least one intamin stand up that is operational that I know of.

What are the height restrictions for stand ups like Mantis and Chang?

^Try this...

Most brilliant application ever. ^^

Bookmarked

That's very odd....I don't think it's one of those things parks consider when buying rides...B and M is not one togo profitless when there is money to be made, either. Parks buy what they want, and manufacturers make what they are comfortable with and can sell.

I'm just wondering why this topic has not been locked. There is no TOGO anymore, so no possibility of this topic being true. Well unless you have a flux capacitor and you can hit 88 mph!

You could try reading posts 14, 64 and 65!

This thread? Why would you suggest it's time for it togo?

Why CHANGe now?

Terp, told he is good at standup

Watching it now!

Everything old is new again...

Off we go, back to the future.

Terpy, serious adorer of DeLoreans....

Terpy, do you think it is bad that I cannot find my flux capacitor anywhere?

I think it went to....Florida.

At least one of the DeLoreans did!

It's Back to the Future itself I cannot find down there...

Ahh, Terpy and his puns are back!

Even old Terp must make a pilgrimage to the home park occasionally!

Nah, that trip ended up in the night row!
