Honestly, now that it's Vertical, I would bet they have the full circuit put together in a couple weeks. The coaster is pretty compact and not too complicated.
So being opened sometime in July, I would say Friday July 11th, isn't completely out of the realm of possibilty...
Yes, I know it's...
1st off, I thought the initial accident was caused by a piece of THE RIDE that flew off the freaking train...NOT something that flew out of a guests pocket...so after years of the ride operating with, apparently, not an issue with guests putting their crap away responsibly...why are they...
I hate that blank ugly wall between the loading dock and the launch track, because now you can't see riders get on the train.
Why couldn't they make it a chain link fence or something see through?
Watching guests anticipation while strapping into the ride was great to see from the midway...
Not sure if this belongs here...but Cedar Fair has finally reached a settlement with the lady who got hit by the piece that flew off the train.
Seems like they are happy with what they received. Considering costs at $10 Mill for the rest of her life, I would assume Cedar Fair went above that...
Ride looks great, I know it's off for testing...but I wish they'd run all dive coasters without the holding brake!
I feel like this ride could have really benefitted from both a tunnel at the bottom of the first drop, and an airtime hill before hitting the brakes.
But still, a lot going on in...
I definitely noticed this before, you can see it during the off ride footage. Certainly a bit of a "shuffle" left and right similar to, dare I say, Kingda Ka? Especially on the final forward launch.
I really wonder if the trains being more "top heavy" due to the design of the trains and...
That first front launch looks weak.
Back spike trip looks about 100+ feet short of the tower height.
Glad this ride is not going bye-bye but...I'll just leave it at that.
Can we at least give Six Flags the props they deserve for buying one of these from Intamin, and holding on to Kingda Ka as...
So unless they keep the spikes, or find a Schwarzkopf loop they can refurb, basically Montezuma's Revenge as we know it, has been dismantled. For no reason other than Cedar Fair didn't want to maintain a staple ride in the park that has been there for 45 effing years, and could have stayed for...
The nearly DOUBLED their impairment in a year?
That seems a bit troublesome to me...considering the sad state Knott's is in right now (and excluding CP) I wonder how the other parks in the chain have been fairing (pardon the pun). I haven't been to a Cedar Fair park besides those 2 in years...
I cannot believe there was not ONE person in management or maintenance that was supervising the construction/destruction, or aware of what Kumbak was SUPPOSED to do ie removing track and literally stopped them the second they lit the torch near the loop. I mean there was NOBODY at the park that...
