So I’m not sure if y’all are aware, but there is currently a Category 5 hurricane barreling towards Florida named Hurricane Milton. It’s on track to be the strongest hurricane literally ever. And it’s going right over Tampa Bay…and Busch Gardens. It’s also going right over Orlando, although it...

Hi guys. Apologies if this sounds like a slightly odd question or one with an obvious answer that I'm missing, but I had a question regarding Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at Magic Kingdom in Florida; who actually manufactured it? I know it sounds odd that I'm asking this given that I could just...

10th June 2023 (Travel) Hi guys. Today was a very exciting day; the start of my 2023 Florida trip! This trip is my first time heading to Florida in 4 years, and my first time heading to the parks we’re visiting this time (Universal Orlando, SeaWorld and Busch Gardens) in 7 years, as well as the...

Hi guys. The state of Florida contains many B&M coasters; between Universal Orlando, SeaWorld and Busch Gardens, the state is now pretty saturated with them. Many different models are represented within Florida; the theme park capital of the world is almost a B&M showroom of sorts! But with a...

Hi guys. Within the last year, 2 rides have opened in the state of Florida that have taken the industry by absolute storm. If you’re oblivious to what I’m talking about, those 2 rides are VelociCoaster, an Intamin Blitz Coaster that opened at Universal’s Islands of Adventure in June 2021, and...

I had the chance to tag along with the Buzzed Bars Orlando meetup this past weekend, exciting in both getting to be with some quality human beings (including @Snoo, @Hutch, @pkiknex25, @tomahawk, @Antinos, @Sky, and many others!), and picking up both VelociCoaster and lingering Orlando creds...

Hi guys. You may have noticed that I just posted the results of a poll calculating CF’s favourite German rollercoasters. Well, I had so much fun calculating those results that I thought that if you guys are willing to participate, I might start doing one of these polls each month! So, this month...

Hi guys. In recent days, it would appear that Legoland Florida has filed for planning permission to build a 4.5 acre park expansion of some sort that will include a water play area and a roller coaster: Exciting stuff! If I had to guess, I’d say that this looks like the park’s equivalent of...

Hi guys. As many of you may know, 2020 is going to be a big year for roller coaster construction in the state of Florida. We have 3 huge rides being built; an RMC IBox coaster at Busch Gardens Tampa, an Intamin Blitz Coaster at Islands of Adventure and a Premier Rides launch coaster at SeaWorld...

9th April 2019 (Travel) Hi guys. Welcome to the first in a series of trip reports that I've been waiting to write for some time; yes, it's finally time for Florida 2019! Now, today is not going to be a park trip report, but more of a travel trip report, as I've noticed quite a few members tend...

Hi guys. Sorry if there's already a thread like this, but talking about some Florida creds in the Last Cred Review topic gave me the idea to ask you guys; what is your favourite coaster in Florida? It is the theme park capital of the world in the eyes of many, and it has many brilliant roller...

Sorry to create my third thread of the day today, but according to the San Diego Union Tribune, SeaWorld San Diego has filed for planning permission to build yet another roller coaster in 2019, just one year after Electric Eel. According to the permit, the ride will stand at 22ft tall and will...

As I've failed spectacularly at my primary new years resolution to eat more veg, I'm going to take a stab at my second resolution: write more trip reports. So here is a tale from a few months back, where I went to an exotic land to get some of the worlds most elusive creds...You probably...
