Snzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
When will the incessantly boring rants about SOB stop showing up in seemingly every single wooden coaster thread?
We're up to 6 years of arguing over that loop now. Bottom line... it serves it's purpose. It pushed the envelope and gained the park notoriety.
Love or hate SOB, PKI went no-holds-barred. Speaking of which... back to Holiday World... who is seemingly going no-holds-barred with Voyage.

Chuck, who's brother has over 400 rides on it and says it was too rough in august to ride.
Great publicity if you ask me.

anyone have a pic of the reverse bank on Hades?
Not too likely since this element is actually in the tunnel on Hades. It is positioned in a way that you can't photograph it from inside the park or from the parking lot. I don't know of anyone outside of the park personnel and builders who have been able to walk inside that tunnel.

Now that I know what a reversed banked turn is, can anyone explain "trick track"?
That a section of straight track that banks left or right then to the opposite banking and finally back to normal. It is on Shivering Timbers but I thought it was hardly noticeable.
Heres the reverse bank, Its a hump comming off a left hand turn, Note the track is banking to the RIGHT. The view is of the coaster comming at you.

As to "stealing" any thunder from another ride, that's a bunch of bull.
I wouldn't mind seeing the third hill being made steeper than the big bull being built in the east. It wouldn't be "stealing" anything if the thing to be stolen didn't exist yet, would it?
Honestly, right now I could care less. I was going to be there early next year to ride the coaster that appears to offer just about everything I could want in a woodie. IMO it didn't need anything more, but I'll take whatever it is with no objections. Unless, of course, someone gets their sick dream of an inversion on this beauty. You people are just evil! :)

Ok, I thought people were serious.
No, but the original post that the joke comes from did say that.
So your retort is still valid. :)
Closed topic.
