Alex its actually "taggers respect" because as me being a teen i know a few taggers sadly and i was told is disrespectful for them to do that and that it then sends out the original owners after them aswell. ahhhhhh the magic of self taught high school.haha

That's quite interesting about the 'taggers respect' stuff, never heard of that before. Having said that, next time you're at the school where you teach yourself, you don't suppose you could give yourself an English lesson do you?

Joz, with august gone, and september almost there, You're running out of time to come up with September's quote of the month....

This makes me laugh. La Ronde in Montreal already have a B&M Inverted Coaster: http://rcdb.com/1567.htm?p=16444 But for next season they are opening a Vekoma SLC (Second-hand from Astroworld) http://www.laronde.com/larondeen/2010/

The rollercoaster manufacturer, Vekoma, is well-known in Montreal, having designed three of La Ronde’s most popular rides: Super Manège, Boomerang and Grande Roue.

Getting off-topic, Gazza, i'm surprised to not have any comment from you about the game on the weekend - it's been a while has it not? Although i suppose there aren't many AFL fans around these boards...

^Thats pretty much it...I couldn't really think of a compelling enough post on the matter.

Lol - not even a Carn' the Cats? lol.

Here's a cool video for all the Disneyphiles on here...A tilt shift video of a day in the life of Magic Kingdom.

I was in Victoria the past few days, and one of the things I did was take some time out to visit the Casey RACEso I could finally get on one of those Space Bowl slides (So far I've only ever ridden the kind where you ride in a raft, and not the body slide type) So anyway, here's a POV I took:

That wheel is just a complete joke if you ask me... As for the cannon bowl, the WWW one seems a bit less crazy intense than the original pro slide version. The one at WnW in Orlando really wips you around and is damn fast. I don't recall any problems with the joins either... Still a damn fun slide

Yet another bit of minor news, but Rainbows End in Auckland have opened a Disk'O Coaster, called The Invader: http://www.rainbowsend.co.nz/index.php?pg=...on.tpl&id=3

From what I remember I coudn't see anything for all the spray, and it spins you so fast that you get disorientated... Also you usually fall through the hole upside down... and dizzy. :/

http://www.ushsho.com/detailedsteelrollerc...results2009.htm The 2009 steel coaster poll results are in! http://www.ushsho.com/detailedsteelrollerc...results2009.htm ...Unfortunatley, most of our rides had too few riders who took the poll, so they weren't given official rankings (I think a minimum of 15 riders are needed for that). They still did have their winning percentages, so we can see how they ranked that way. Superman got 0.9091, which would have put it 31st, ahead of Top Thrill Dragster (31), but behind Storm Runner (30) Scooby got 0.5860, which would have put it at 150th. Motocoaster got 0.0909, which would have put it 356th out of 368...Just one spot ahead of the Vekoma SLC collective ranking (And hence, Lethal Weapon). Cyclone came in at 329th. Tower of Terror came in at 217th. Surfrider (As part of the Intamin halfpipe collective ranking) came in at 197th Tower of Terror got Jet Rescue only had two riders this year, so it couldn't even be given a winning percentage.

After spending several hours at Wet'N'Wild yesterday I was reminded how the parks try to grab money at every opportunity... Little did I expect to be asked an exorbitant amount for a Picnic chocolate bar on leaving the park. The vending machine read $320.00 to be exact! Upon attempting other similar items I got the same result, in frustration I tried for some mixed lollies and a Time Out began to release only to get caught. After some gentle persuasion it finally fell down, along with a Picnic that some other unfortunate tourist never got to eat.

I was just wondering if anyone knows how late Movie World was open over the summer holidays? This video seems to be taken at least after 6:30pm. This video was uploaded on the 9th.

I've recently returned from a trip to New Zealand and while I was there I visited this small adventure park called Waimarino. Is it just me or does anyone else think that some health and safety officials should check out their latest attraction - The Blob?

To those of you who have not seen it I would recommend you see Daybreakers, I thought it was a pretty good film, filmed mostly at movieworld and very true to the vampire genre (Except for the bizarre homage to Twilight calling the main vampire Edward..?).

Having a quick look online, they are used in a few parks around the world, I guess it's ok, I mean if they are in the park they have passed the safety inspections.

Save your money, go to Blockbuster and hire Let The Right One In instead. Daybreakers starts off interesting, certainly is up there in the gore stakes... but the whole thing just leaves me cold. Recommended only for Robina Train Station enthusiasts.

completely unrelated here but how old are you if you dont mind me asking. you just seem to be online a lot

It's pretty simple. I use one browser for everything at a time. I go back and fourth. Also I am pretty bored right now. Lately it has been raining, which could also explain my constant Parkz action. I don't mind you asking, ask anything you want. -Spencer

Mmm the rain's annoying, wish we had an indoor theme park.

Edited February 7, 201015 yr by Gold Coaster

Movie World has many indoor attractions. And ones under cover. I guess thats as close as we can get, for now. The rain has been dispicible lately. Its so boring. Winter is just about to set in, I HATE WINTER.
