This. It's really not that difficult. On the OG Stand-Ups, bend your knees a little and sit on the bike seat before it locks so that it's a little lower. After it locks, stand up straight, and you have the clearance you need to prevent nut bashing. I thought that was common sense. I feel like...

I'll throw in another vote for Velocicoaster. Got the chance to ride it on two separate occasions- it's a fantastic ride that had me all smiles every time, but nowhere near the awe that I got from Zadra or Steel Vengeance. Maybe too much time spent dicking around in the right-hand turns after...

'Murricoaster

This would probably be Energylandia for me. I have family not too far away, so I'll be out there again before long. Very much looking forward to some more quality time on Zadra and Hyperion.

Don't really have a list, but I prefer the Second-Gen Intamin towers. Also thought Acrophobia at SFOG and Falcon's Fury at BGT were excellent. First-Gens are a lot of fun, too. Not as excited about the regular Gyro Drops. I've been on KI's and KD's, and while they look impressive, to me, they...

SFGAm is my home park. Easy no. Drive five hours to Kings Island to see what they're doing with their wooden coasters. They're a lot of fun. Invest in that instead of Rocky Mountaining everything that can be Rocky Mountained. They built a ground-up RMC at GAm, and it's alright, but it's pretty...

Probably because the 12th was on a Tuesday in October and someone forgot to change the calendar.

I did them on the same trip, but I don't think it was on consecutive days. Honestly, didn't think much of it. We also had a funeral followed by a wedding the very next day on the same trip. That was bizarre.

Here's a short little article about reasons that people have been banned from Six Flags Great America. Here's another one about a guy who tried to avoid the parking fee and found himself banned for life after attempting to re-enter.

I loved Wonder Woman at SFFT when I got to try it out a few weeks ago, but the other three in my party hated it- one and done. Two of those three have accompanied me on many of my coaster travels, with no complaints. These revisions aren't going to turn it into a fluffy pillow ride, but maybe...

SFGAm's Demon has a very surprising kick to the first drop in the last row. Would hate to ever see vest restraints on this coaster.

Wow. Well, I can't wait to get back. Cornball alone is a good time. I'm happy for the park- and I hope they go above and beyond with the refurb. New trains, like on Sooperdooperlooper seem warranted based on the history. I'd really like it to not be in that gravel parking lot next to Steel...

Came here to say just that!

The Stand Ups have never been an issue for me. Never got to ride either of the Vortex Stand Ups (or Patriot), but Iron Wolf came earlier than either of them, and I think it's fantastic. Mantis (was) and Rougarou is as well.

There was definitely grumbling about it's smoothness early on (I remember people speculating about track imperfections/defects on various message boards) , in addition to the parking lot factor, and even complaints about the name. I've not ridden it, but have yet to ride a B&M coaster that I...

Yeah, I don't see this taking long at all.

Life roll it is! :-)

No one is really going to give you an answer to this question. It could be either one, or Herschend, or SeaWorld Entertainment (SWE would be my guess- they've really been diversifying their bonds). I'm not sure what it would cost to build one, but I'm assuming it's on cheaper side of the...
