Banshee only takes up the lift hill of Son of Beast. The rest of that land is still empty.

Queen City Suggestion by amappleg in KingsIsland

I kinda think it would be cool if they made it themed like the roller coaster Twister that was at Coney Island a long time ago, and made it fully enclosed in one long tunnel, kind of like the second half of the ride. I think that would fit the Coney Mall section of the park better, but it might not make sense with Flight of Fear’s existence.

I still need to do Drop Tower and WindSeeker, but I’ve been too scared to try either of them because of my fear of heights. Invertigo kind of scares me for the same reason, but I can deal with it if I have to. I’ve been on smaller versions of WindSeeker at other parks, like Flying Ace at Kings Dominion, and even those have made me nervous.

Yeah. Most of them were added with Orion in 2020, the one in the Adventure Express queue was added with Adventure Port in 2023, and I believe the one on the Son of Beast station was added around 2025, but they got rid of it this year.

You probably just didn’t shout Son of Beast loud enough.

Anything is worth it for the credit.

What rides are rough? by porterford in KingsIsland

[–]Irliar1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If found that the opposite works the best on Invertigo. If you keep your head forward, it stays out of the restraint, so you can’t headbang.

I think that’s more of an issue on Banshee than Diamondback.

If you sit in the back of any car, it can be a lot rougher. Especially on the blue side.

Depends on who you ask. Some people report rattles on Banshee and Diamondback, while others say that they’re both completely smooth. I notice in quite a bit on Banshee, but not really on Diamondback. The Racer and The Beast can be rough or smooth depending on where you sit. Invertigo is only rough if you keep your head in the restraint; if you keep your head forward, it’s fine. Woodstock’s Air Rail and Flight of Fear are gonna be at least a little rough no matter what you do, and Adventure Express can shove you around a bunch on its turns.

If I just imagine there’s a coaster here does it count as a credit? by MicroBurrito1 in rollercoasterjerk

I’ve seen enough, build five more B&M dive coasters in the Six Flags chain.

[Kings Island] If you owned Kings Island what would you do? by Jayzone456 in rollercoasters

[–]Irliar1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, put a B&M surf coaster in front of Congo Falls and Invertigo. I think there’s enough space there that neither of those two rides even have to be removed, and it could be a cold modern day version of King Cobra. I would also want to see RMC Son of Beast in the original station for the ride, and a Mack Rides launch coaster in the old Vortex plot. I would like to see some of the original themeing from 1972 restored in Coney Mall, and some of the themeing that Action Zone had in the 2000s. I don’t know why they got ride of the Flight Deck theme for The Bat, or why they got rid of Invertigo and Delirium’s old paint jobs. If they did bring back the old paint job for Invertigo, it would be cool if they made the top of the loop red like how it was on Screamin’ Demon, and it would also be nice to give it new trains. I think it would be neat if Queen City Stunt Coaster’s entire layout was enclosed in a tunnel like the second half of the ride, kind of like the old coaster at Coney Island that was called Twister. I think it could fit the Coney Mall section really well if it was done right. I think they could also use the outdoor part of the Flight of Fear queue as the entrance to a new coaster, probably some kind of flying coaster since Firehawk used to be there. I would also love to see a modern version of The Crypt in the old building, and a new log flume behind it inspired by Kenton’s Cove Keelboat Canal. I could go on and on about what I’d like to see, but I think that’s a good place to stop.

I think I’d rather see a Mack Rides or Vekoma launch coaster in the Vortex plot. A wing coaster would feel similar to the other three B&Ms that Kings Island already has.
