Kings Island - Diamondback

Featured Replies

Just in case you want to know, you are not harnessed in on Diamondback. It is like an old rollercoaster where a bar type contraption comes down

across your lap. There is nothing around your shoulders.

How high is the observation deck of the Eiffel Tower at KI?

 

 

Diamondback is not as high as the Eiffel tower. It is very close though.

Yes, that's true. I believe they call it stadium seating. It's very...open.

Trains should look similar to this:

Standard B&M Hypercoaster Train.

 

Except Diamondback will be V shaped kinda... Not straight across.

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?

 

It was some Japanese coaster, wasn't it?

Correct.

 

It was Steel Dragon 2000. It still operates today, but it had a period of time where it was not operating. They've seemed to have a lot of problems with it.

Yep, that is how you are locked in on the Diamondback, and yes you are right, the two front seats in the car are next to each other and the two seat behind have a space between them. So basically each seat has a front row veiw. There will not be a person sitting directly in front of you.

Correct.

Definitely not good to have problems with a coaster that tall! :scared:

The cars are alittle different. It is almost like sections and not just one big long car.

That makes me nervous just looking at it in a picture!

That's a cool link if you click on the one that has the front row ride. Huge first hill and I like the one over the water.
