Went to Great Adventure yesterday. Only new credit was: Flash: Vertical Velocity have to say in the back it's a very fun ride! More forceful than anticipated, good pacing and good duration. Of course this comes at the cost of capacity but well...either be there at gate drop or use a one time...

Judgement shall be held until it can be ridden, and the inverted launch is epic but IDK this is just, to quote Hyde above, weird AF and not sure it'll really hit BUT we shall see. Regardless, kinda crazy it's happened esp as certain parks are pushing like 3 years to fully open something, here it...

Wow in 24 hours this went from rumors to confirmed. We have to hope AF1 will be sold/relocated but not taking the gamble. Imagine the kicking if you knew the park was closing, gambled, its not relocated and missed the chance! I'll use a long weekend, go to SFoG, Fun Spot, Atlanta for a day. An...

Siren's Curse The hype is legit. The POV did actually do it justice. This thing was epic. The drop is of course fun and different but the layout is what really shines. Packed with airtime, whip, and forcefulness. Not Maverick or I305 (sorry habit can't break it) levels but was surprised how much...

OK back from Cedar Point. Hate to be a flip flopper but my rankings need updating. 1: Gatekeeper 2: Rapterra 3: Thunderbird 4: Wild Eagle Rapterra is technically better in that it's a more consistent ride but its short, and while I'm not OMG this is horrible the shakiness throughout makes it...

100% glad to say this thread is now worthless! They actually did hear us, and just straight up brought back the event. Now that is an itinerary. (And the price now includes park admission, so the event is now roughly $60 and that's a helluva lot more to say the least). This also eliminated the...

Yup! Came to say I am a fair man and yes, seems they are reversing course. We shall see what they do. I will be more than glad to give kudos for hearing the fans and addressing it!

Title says it all. This was always such a great event, at the very least couldn't beat the morning & evening ERT made doing the park so easy and chill. Aaaand this year it's been replaced with "Morning Rush" For $95 we now get one ERT session, and 2 of the 4 rides are Rougarou and Iron Dragon...

So if its gunna be that "Phantom Spire" thing we saw a bit ago, ngl seems kinda mid but I would LOVE to be wrong of course, and I will grant the launch on a stall is epic. That alone has me kinda hyped.

Having just done Rapterra maybe its recency bias, but I feel it's probably the best B&M wing technically...like it was more consistently forceful and quick throughout but also quite short. I no longer watch POVs in advance so I was a little caught how short it was, but guess better than a slow...

Let the record war continue! Falcon's Flight should try to claim this record. It technically could be said to have a launch....it may launch from like 120 to 155 but it does have one 😂

Not ridden either but I honestly think Iron Rattler looks better than Falcon's Flight https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBahRIvA47I

Not nearly as pretty as yall's but this was fun to do. Really enjoyed thinking back to the old days to figure out when I did what and got a huge nostalgia blast. I was lucky to have parents who liked rides and encouraged my nerdy hobby, always tried to incorporate a park on vacation, and I...

OMG as a stats nerd I love this thread. Always wanted to dabble with stuff like this, yall have inspired me.

This is what we've been waiting for! Wow, first half moves a little quicker than imagined, does peter out and I maintain its kinda there for the sake of it but jesus....that 100 mph (if accurate) uphill launch, the boosted while already accelerating, and the speed through that 2nd half, even...
