Yeah still have one on my phone, still use it daily. I won't buy a phone without one. Still rocking the apple wired headphones 10 years later. Still have a headphone jack in my car.

I second the k40. I've had mine a few years and it's a champ. I have exhaust hooked up so everything gets vented. Those open air diode lasers scare me I'd def burn my eyes out.

That was icon park, this is fun spot, two separate parks.

I don't like how it's hard to put your hands up on a lot of B&Ms. Trims that hit to hard, getting stapled, having people who's hands are up hit you in the face, any kind of a rattle with OTSRs. Whatever tho I'm good at ignoring that shit and having fun.

Ooh I too rode fury this year. Yeah, that's a bottom tier one fsho.

[-] Chadteeka@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I get the sentiment. But if you rode the boss you'd understand (maybe...lol) American thunder is fantastic and screaming eagle fills the historic woodie checkbox. But the boss, with the gerstlauer trains is just awful. And I mean the park tries, you can see lots of the valleys have been retracked like this year. Regardless it feels like a losing battle. Like the last double up, from where they removed the helix, feels like in snowboarding/skiing where you "hit the knuckle".

Like the end of the ride feels pretty similar to this:

With no raptors built last year, one ground up and one conversion, which coasters are you hoping for RMC to look at for next year? I don't have high hopes for RMC/Boss with Selim but, I can only hope. It's so rough even with the trackwork that gets done on it. I think it has the potential to be the best RMC conversion yet. Or do y'all think titan track would be a better route? I'm also hoping for a park to get a custom/terrain raptor but ehh.

I also never understood how the spike would be taller than the top hat. Unless they want you to get mad ejector over the tophat lol.

I also hope it's not just a straight spike and is twisted kinda like wicked twister.

I also think the blanket white paint looks terrible. Hopefully just primer or a base layer

Hopefully we get an announcement soon.

Those are absolutely flats.

Giant canyon swing always gets me. Obvi it has the positives and floater like any s&s swing, but the acrophobia of feeling like youre about to be hurled off a cliff, combined with the amazing scenery makes it such a top notch installation for me.

Park maps are priority one. I've got a workbench area that has all my ski and theme park maps. I'll buy a shirt if I find one that isn't awful. I always look but probably only buy one every third park I go to. And then always get a pic of me and whoever I was on the trip with.

This is this shit I'm talking about! That looks amazing. I love the chaotic nature of having everything slammed together. And having the distinct memory of going from too short to tall enough is so cool. Thanks for the response!

This might not apply to everyone as I've talked to people that have no memories of before they were like 10, but, I have memories of going to astroworld in the early 90s when I was about 4 or 5 years old. I specifically remember ultratwister as looking insane and just having my mind blown watching it. I also remember Texas Cyclone as being just huge and loud. I was reassured by my parents that next year I would be tall enough to ride, but alas, we moved out califori-way and I never got any of the creds. Oh well, still lives on in my memory as a fun time.

Yeah I went to holiday world recently and thought about doing the half KK half HW, but ended up doing a full day at HW. Really glad I did, fun day. The raven was open for me and a blast! Shorter than the other two woodies but I loved how wooded it was and the turnaround on the lake.
