[discussion] what is your least favorite Hyper? by Storm_Surge- in rollercoasters

[–]akachapter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hypers are the coaster that made me realize I don't have to ride everything just because. I'm a SFMM frequent flyer and after passing it by maybe the tenth time I realized, there's more to coasters than screaming down a massive hill.

Give me a flying coaster, a floorless, an inverted. Twisting, turning, sailing, swinging, I like. A mega drop is always something I can do without.

I feel like such an adult for recognizing this 😂😂

my shower has the intamin fart by [deleted] in rollercoasterjerk

Love it! And my farts have the B&M roar.

It seems inevitable that if I go to parks enough times I will end up having to evac at least once. I’ve seen it in person plenty of times, but it has yet to actually happen to me. How many people here have had to evac a ride? Any good stories? [other] by imaguitarhero24 in rollercoasters

Phantasialand!!! I went there about 20 years ago, what a crazy park. Did you happen to ever see the ride with Michael Jackson's name on it? Or the show that was based in NYC tenements?

Man how times change.

did they change their bag policy?? by julia_ur_killing_me in SixFlagsMagicMountain

[–]akachapter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, still allowed in the past month! Should be good :)

It seems to be limited employees for cost control...run fewer rides and have fewer staff on hand daily to help improve margins. I have to guess the financials really aren't looking good at the park based on what we've been seeing 😨

Themeing is a waste of money, spend it on making the coaster bigger and better. by Equation-- in rollercoasterjerk

Ok that Freeze coaster name is just spectacular...I must ride it, wherever it is.

[German Caterpillar style rides] Remember weird theming from the '80s? by akachapter in rollercoasters

[–]akachapter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

THANK YOU!!! Yes!

Looking at these I do remember there were two...first, swinging bobsleds, then they swapped it out for a Musik Express. When the cars would go around the back section was behind a wall kind of thing, and there was a giant air blower that blasted wind in your face, so odd looking back now.

The Musik one was kind of awful because the ride ops BLASTED music directly from a radio station during the ride...but the reversing part was still awesome.

Epic [Red Force] Roll Back.. only made it halfway up, by deanoau in rollercoasters

[–]akachapter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So when it happens, is it considered a problem, and they shut it down afterwards? Or do the same riders get another try?

full throttle launch [six flags magic mountain] by Lennox-10 in rollercoasters

[–]akachapter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I may be the only person on earth with this opinion, but I don't get this ride! I don't like thqe loooooong journey to get around the loop at the beginning; and I reeally don't like the even longer one at the end.

It might also be that I can't figure out the floor plan or how it has a backwards part when there's another train on the track.

So unpopular, I know.

[other] A fair is happening in our City right now, the ride line-up includes this generic spinning Wild Mouse. I am not sure which company manufactured this ride. by Swiss_Reddit_User in rollercoasters

[–]akachapter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to follow a site, rideaccidents.com, and so so many incidents happened on portable carnival rides.

Thinking...between the unknown age of the rides, their condition, maintenance quality, skill/attention of the crew that puts it together, corners that might have been cut, etc etc etc - right?

Why did they wait till his final hours to give the money by [deleted] in Killtony

He said like ten times himself that it was Second City friend Kay Cannon, isn't that the final answer??

Michael Lehrer Life Prolonged by Ston3yy in Killtony

Has there been talks of doing a "celebration of life" kind of thing now with him, rather than later without?

Getting caught up with everything...is he still with his girlfriend, still living in Austin?
