It gets better and better the more you read it! Man...Lakeside was a night to remember for sure! I love how the rental car place even left the splitter guards on your Challenger ;)

We made the most of the few hours we were at Conneaut, but it definitely will not be missed!

That first photo of Energylandia is giving me Cedar Point vibes! This park is very high on my priority list thanks to the numerous trip reports posted here and friends who have gone recently. It'll only be a matter of time before @Snoo, @tomahawk, and surely much more company finally manage a...

No fancy photo or screengrab of a spreadsheet, but Elitch Gardens ended up being my 100th visited amusement park!

Geez, y'all. Here's a photo of a small construction crane to satisfy the photo thirst:

Not even going to bother with the usual quote tweet since I've done a much better analysis in my recently made spreadsheet by comparing opening year to the year when I first rode each ride. This list only includes coasters. 1999 Dragon - Legoland California 2001 Flying Ace Aerial Chase -...

Go order a large Jersey Mike's sub and go measure the track yourself :p

All things considered, I think we can all agree that they NEED to take their time on this one. Get it properly fixed before opening...

Drawings were filed with the local government at the start of COVID and show exactly what was described above: https://www.thecoasterkings.com/permit-shows-new-coaster-planned-for-six-flags-magic-mountain/

It's on hold, but not due to lack of interest. T-Rex is intended to be a product of massive scale - massive enough that physical development is a challenge. RMC's workaround is to leverage Raptor as a small scale test bed, as much of the technology between the two products will essentially be...

I know @bmac will disagree with me, but Cedar Point already has a boardwalk. It runs along the beach from the front parking lot next to Gatekeeper's drop all the way back to the Magnum entrance. It simply doesn't look like the boardwalk anybody has pictured in their heads with actual boards...

This is a matter of opinion. The entire chain - including both Seaworld parks AND Busch Gardens parks - is looking to add more and more thrill rides as a long term strategy. They recently bolstered a decent lineup (Morgan mega coaster, Batman clone, Mack supersplash) with Texas Stingray, which...

Seaworld brand perception has made a complete 180 over the past few years, as evidenced by their continued growth in revenue and attendance (excluding any nuances stemming from COVID). The park is excellent as-is - they just need to maintain their course and keep expanding their selection of rides.

So what flavor of Dip n' Dots did you order that led to this conversation?

Per RMC, the ride is (obviously) designed to withstand hurricanes. The diagonal steel batter braces found throughout the ride are what makes the ride hurricane proof.

This is a supposed relocation of Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. Take this with a grain of salt because the city of Vallejo is adamant that the park is staying put.

For all the memes about the ride and how easy it is to joke about, it ended up being a strong ride. I still have plenty of qualms with it, but for what it does, it does well with a great drop, good forces and airtime, and good pace.

Wow, that looks tragic. There's a small part of me that absolutely loves it though...just so odd! Glad to see that you're getting efficient with the cred clean-up though! :p

It's an excellent ride, but it seems to be affected by temperature and cycle count much more significantly than other rides. If you ride it first thing in the morning, you have to go back later in the day for a second opinion because I'm sure the ride will be running MUCH faster in the afternoon.
