Ride Ghostrider first. From there, you can do the park in pretty much any order. The park is small and easy to get around and there aren't that many huge coasters compared to most other parks so even on a crowded day, you can clear the majors out with ease. You could hit Calico Mine Ride and...

Its pretty common for parks to re-use names. It saves them money because now they can sell the same merch across all their parks and they don't need to file for naming rights. Most of the public will never get to ride more than one Manta anyway so its not like they care that much.

Even if it is a quality vs quantity debate, BGT still has both quality and quantity covered because they have so many more coasters than Uni does. The park doesn't really have a "bad" coaster either. A more even matchup would probably be like BGT vs BGW since both have a similar number of...

IOA only has 4 coasters and BGT has 9. I don't think the comparison is all that fair. In terms of coasters, BGT pretty much wins by default because it has more coasters to choose from. IOA is the superior park overall though,

I'll be riding this at the end of the month! It'll be my first time at Holiday World as well. I can't wait.

Loch Ness Monster opened to passholders today. I took two rides. The station looks like a ship hangar. There are cranes over the train. Some queue theming. This isn't the only display box, but I figured I'd give everyone a taste of things to come. The desk reminds me of the desk in the back...

For me it depends on the coaster. I've noticed all coasters develop some kind of shake eventually. Its part of the aging process. The older the ride runs, the rougher it gets. The more frequently it runs, the rougher it gets. A noticeable rattle on a newer coaster detracts from the...

Before prices went up, I'd always stick with the appetizer and main course. Hardly ever got dessert unless it was a special occasion. Nowadays, the appetizers cost nearly as much as the main course in a lot of cases, so there's no real reason for me to order them. The only time I'll ever order...

Phoenix Rising will have passholder previews in June. Date still unknown

I'm probably missing a few but these are most of the coasters I've ridden in their opening year. BGW Griffon Verbolten Tempesto Pantheon Darkoaster SWO Mako Ice Breaker Pipeline BGT Cobra's Curse Tigris Iron Gwazi Kings Dominion Twisted Timbers Tumbili Hersheypark Candymonium Wildcat's...

The park has confirmed the ride is opening next year, but that's about it. They re-posted the original announcement to social media about a month ago.

I've never been to CP before, but my home CF park makes everyone pass through metal detection if you're planning to ride Twisted Timbers. They don't allow anything in the station. Even if you're loading on the DAS side of the platform, the moment you pull your phone out, the staff member will...

I'm sure GCI has learned their lesson on wooden coaster launches. As long as they use a steel structure for the launch and maybe a few elements after, they can mitigate the swaying Lightning Rod was dealing with.

I was there in April of last year for a cruise. Love the Sunset Bar. I just wish the ships stayed in port longer so I could experience an actual sunset on the beach.
