    Cedar Point | "GateKeeper" | B&M Wingrider

    This looks incredible, can't wait to try it next year. And it does look like a huge empty space.

    Why do you like theme parks/amusement parks/roller coasters?

    I think I like roller coasters because the experience is such a far departure from the norm of everyday life. To be able to go 75 mph through giant dives and twists is so out of the ordinary in a fun/exciting/scary way that it's just awesome. I like amusement parks because they are a place where...

    Clappers

    I don't usually clap on coasters unless I really enjoyed it or the crew is really rallying to get the riders excited. But it doesn't annoy me to hear people clapping, although on certain coasters it makes me wonder "why are you clapping for that?" Although I do think it's a completely...

    Design your own theme park

    I'd Bat Them Lashes :wink: But seriously; I'd probably aim for a very family oriented park with a few "high thrill" attractions with the ultimate goal of having something that appealed to everybody in the family. As far as theming goes I don't really know but the kid's area would be...

    What parks are you visiting this halloween?

    What got you interested in...

    I remember being "interested" in roller coaster from a very young age (I want to say around 5) because my parents had gotten my family season passes to SFGAm for as long as I could remember, and even though when I was that young I was to scared to ride them I still was fascinated by them. My...

    Most Scared You've Ever Been

    Dragster scared me so much I didn't ride it until 2005 (even though I visited CP each year since 2002) Intamin rides generally put me on edge, because of they're safety record. But the most scared I've ever been on a coaster was probably either Scandia Screamer or Deja Vu (SFGAm) because...

    Thoughts on Las Vegas coasters??

    Speed is the best coaster in Vegas (IMO) closely followed by Desperado (ok technically it's not in Vegas) But I think all the coasters in Vegas are pretty good. Canyon Blaster is pretty standard but the trains are awesome.

    B&M Hypers; for or against?

    I love me some B&M hypers, and every one that I've ridden (less Raging Bull) is in my top 10. Behemoth, Goliath (SFOG), Nitro, Goliath (La Ronde), Apollo's Chariot. All great rides full of airtime and exciting.
