Moving to Logan - CoasterBuzz

Just took a job as a structural engineer. I'm really excited!

For what company?

Take a guess :>)

Ah. Congratulations! *** Edited 10/6/2004 5:46:53 PM UTC by Zero-G***

Ahhhh, Utah? Congrats dude!

There is more than one amusement ride manufacturer there...

Does it matter if it is S&S or Interactive? It's still a cool job!

Well, S&S would probably be better as they are one of the more prominent ride manufactures in the nation and seem to open at least one new ride/attraction a year. Interactive Rides is growing fast though and should be big in the near future.

Probably the only better jobs in the US for coaster lovers would be with Premier and GCI but both of them seem to be past their hayday, while S&S seems to be on the up-and-up.

If you can't stand the heights, get out of the line.

Congrats Joe!!

Now go calculate those Von Mises stesses on those supports :)

Fate is the path of least resistance.

Coaster Lover, what do you call Thunderhead (GCI) and Revenge of the Mummy (x2) and Italian Job the Ride (x2) for Premier? I would hardly call that two companies who are past their haydays.

Utah rocks, congratulations! Lagoon is a great little park and you're within driving distance of both Yellowstone and Zion/Bryce National Parks. Enjoy!

OMG, I'm a CreHo.

S&S it is......

3 hours to the chutes at Jackson Hole!

4 hours to Moab!

Tresca, Von Mises, or Coulomb-Mohr approach....gotta love those guys.

And you know WHAT about "driving distance", bASS? ROFL!

Coaster Joe, CONGRATS.....I'd *launch* myself to Utah to work with Stan! :)

I'd hardly call GCII a company past its heydey. It can be argued that their products have gotten better and better since they started almost a decade ago. They have never been a very prolific company but the products they create are really something special.

Agreed. Same with Premier. They seem to be on a bit of an upswing.

Well keep us posted. Why not a trip report about your first day? We'd love to hear about it. :)

Would that be a Job Report?

Driving distance = less than 24 hours on the road, LOL!

bASS math...4420 + 2256 = 256 + 62

Jackson Hole is great, but don't forget about some of the greats there in Utah, especially Snowbasin. Avoid Park City & The Canyons, too many tourists and vacationers there. Brighton and Solitude are hidden gems as well that offer amazing terrain. I'll be up there the week before Christmas for Snowbasin, Brighton, and Snowbird and then in Jackson for two weeks in February. Can't wait considering all the snow we already have had in the high country of Colorado. Hopefully will be at Loveland next week for the first snowboarding day of the season.

Moab is also amazing, I went there for my first time a couple of years ago and now it is a monthly trip during the summer. Get some good brakes on your mountain bike and the slick rock can be a lot of fun.
