Now I know what I want to be when I grow up.

I wouldn't pursue that career because media days allows some reporters to ride first.


The chances of being those reporters are slim, being on a news station that is covering a ride that you would even like to cover is slim, and being that particular reporter to ride is again... slim.

He could pursue a career in being the GM of KI. Then he can ride whenever you want.

I was really just joking.

I wanna become a PR just like Don Helbig!

Of course he was he wants to be a weatherman, show em the video

But yes, we won't get front row or other seats, but at least you get to be apart of a coaster crew to come in and ride the ride(s). If I get a shot to ride The Bat for awhile, oh I'll marathon the hell out of it. Such a fantastic Arrow Suspended.

But on other terms guys just respect the parks demands, they wanna be the ones showing off their product to the media and guests selling a good first impression, let them do that. I know they didn't give a motive, but it's simply that and makes sense. Let it be for now. Trust me I want to show and post my photos & video here from testing the last few weeks as well from the few times I've gone down. However, in due time. I'm just as excited to show this off and get involved with it like you guys are. Just be patient, he'll let us know when we can post all of our stuff to our hearts desire.

No video. I'm a tour guide now, remember?

Hehehehe..made me think of this..

I'm right there with you. I am actually writing an essay about public relations managers for a LA Writing class.

I don't at all trust Accuweather extended forecast but just for fun I decided to look up the weather prediction for Mason, OH for Media Day and opening day. Fascinating.

Forecast found here for those interested: http://m.accuweather.com/en/us/mason-oh/45040/extended-weather-forecast/19290_pc

I don't know if it has been mentioned on here yet or not but the ride height for Banshee is 52 in.

From Kings Island's website.

Also max height of 78 inches and a rating of 5. Sweet. I was hoping for a 5

^^^ Forecasts more than a few days out are worth very little. At three weeks out, they're just guessing based on long-term averages and/or seasonal forecasts.

Jonathan decided to have some fun with it one year: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php/topic/25285-accuweather-claims-25-day-forecast/

Oh I know it's just guessing and I have zero faith in it at all but it is still amusing to me lol

Lets atleast hope for that temperature or up to like 75 would be great!

It looks like queue construction is underway this morning at the Banshee site.

A cement mixer is under the lift hill where the queue line is supposed to be placed and it also looks like there is another near the brake run.

It appears the two trains remained stacked. I wonder if they left them out overnight.

Yes, I myself had just noticed the other day about the MAXIMUM ride height of 78". I myself am 76". it will probably be first time in my life I may hunch down a little to NOT go over the ride height line....haha

^^Im 76" too but it think we'll be good. Im more worried about losing my lower legs where the ride bottoms out!

You read my mind Gplez90!!! I am sure our feet will be a good distance from the ground...but Im sure when I get to the low point I will be trying to raise my legs up.....im sure you will do the same...haha

I still do it when i ride Raptor and were flying past all of the supports! Ive always raised my legs on Raptor, so i always think what would happed if i didnt? Haha O_o

Looks like they are going to go vertical with something in the circle today.

yeah I noticed that in the circle as well......not getting my hopes up to much though....seems like more times than not, they do something like this...and then just sit.

Has queue line concrete been poured on the far end of the queue line? Looks solid and dark gray....just very different on my webcam.

I got to see Banshee testing over the weekend, while driving up I-71. Its quite the site to see.

At only 63 inches tall I don't have to worry about my feet scraping the ground on coasters lol though I do curl my legs in on Flying Ace Aerial Chase because it seems like my legs will hit otherwise lol but what do you expect being an adult riding a kiddie coaster?

Max Height of 78 inches? I might only get to ride it once if I keep growing.

Don't die..curiosity seemed to do that for said animal

Lol!!! I am more likely to die from some random injury it seems than curiosity. I sustained two minor injuries and one moderate injury in one week lol
