In the eye of the (Dania Beach) Hurricane...
Got a small side trip to DBH this weekend, and this coaster is breaking in nicely. Early on, it seemed a little "tight" and really didn't give much air save for those last three hills. Well, we went on Saturday night, after a nice warm day with just a few light showers, and the ride was REALLY running well. There was a "Santa's Village" assortment of rides just down the street, and the various assortment of entertainment/thrills at Boomer's, and the place seemed MUCH less crowded. Even with the $10 unlimited rides, the coaster was a walk-on from 10-1. Stand-up type air I've gotten on very few coasters in the first few rows, and the ride-ops were, relaxed...If you're in Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area, I recommend stopping by for (at least) a few spins...

I rode the DBH back in May during the 'Survivor' contest they were holding on it.It is now my #2 woodie.Its' layout reminds me of the long defunct Jantzen Beach Dipper(Portland,Oregon)I probably own the only DBH t-shirt in the state of Oregon.It gets comments every time I go to Oaks Park and Thrillville.(hey,where is that ride?)
how far is Dania Beach and Fort Lauderdale from orlando? I am traveling from boston to disney, making my annual pilgramage, and i figuared i would really like to try a new coaster in the florida area. I have been on all the other coaster in florida except the one at Old town.the hurricane sounds like a excellent ride but it might be too far from disney and i might not have enoughh time.
