January 25, 200917 yr What is a hypercoaster? This is actually a roller coaster, and not one of those drop zone type things, right? If it's a roller coaster, I'll do it. If it's a straight drop down, then :isurrender: A hypercoaster is a roller coaster that is 200+ feet tall. 300+ is a Giga Coaster (Millenium Force) and 400+ is a Tera Coaster (Kingda Ka) Anyone else for a BGP day at Kings Island? :lol:
January 25, 200917 yr Anyone that wants to see what this coaster will resemble can go here: http://www.rcdb.com/ig1106.htm This is Nitro from Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey.
January 25, 200917 yr That may be a tad bit to tall for me but we'll see. Hopefully I can fit better on this than son of beast.
January 25, 200917 yr Talk about crazy, check out this ride on top of the Stratosphere Tower in Vegas. The thing is almost a 1000 ft off the ground. I really would crap my pants on this thing.
January 26, 200917 yr I wonder if Kings Island will let me set up an underwear stand at the end of this ride.:clap::clap:
January 26, 200917 yr I haven't been to KI in two or three years. I found out how awesome Cedar Point was and stuck with it. I haven't been since they opened Fire Hawk. I think I'll take a trip to KI and check them both out this summer.
January 26, 200917 yr Here are a couple bigger pics. For anyone who has never been to Cedar Point, it's worth the drive and price of admission.
January 26, 200917 yr Go to www.kidiamondback.com you can take a virtual ride or do a fly around or you can watch it live as it is being built. (kinda like the African waterhole) It is due to open in April and they are almost finished with the structure.
January 26, 200917 yr Saw a replica of this back about 5 months ago and it looked unreal. I can't wait.
January 26, 200917 yr Millennium Force...Nothin' beats this one. http://www.rcdb.com/id2832.htm :thumb: Which is a bigger version of Top Thrill Dragster. The take off is about as intense as you can get on a rollercoaster!
January 26, 200917 yr NOTE: Diamondback will be HALF the size of Kingda Ka. For some trivia, anyone know what Rollercoaster beat Millennium Force for the tallest rollercoaster in the world shortly after Millenium Force opened?
January 26, 200917 yr How high is the observation deck of the Eiffel Tower at KI? I believe it's about 300 ft. tall.
