Talon claws its way to life at Dorney

Posted | Contributed by Joel Styer

Finally, the moment has arrived. Talon is operational and more fun than even I expected. Fourteen new photos and a quick ride review are featured in this ninth installment of RideZone's construction photos.

Man that looks like absolute perfection. When is Knott's going to get one of these?!?! :)

It's so funny, when people start talking about the downfall of B&M and nonsense like that, I'll show them these amazing photos. B&M are STILL the top coaster builders in the world.

Hey check me out, Im in the 8th picture up from the bottom, the pic with the caption that reads: "You spend a good portion of the ride sideways as seen here." I am the guy in the middle wearing sunglasses and a yellow shirt with the blue stripe.. Talon was aweseome! Smooth, intense, fast, plain aweomse! :) *** This post was edited by Badnitrus on 5/4/2001. ***

Man, if only I could get there on the 5th, but don't ahve the $$, but I can't wait until I ride this coaster in June.

Dorney Park just... rules!

Badnitrus, I don't think some people could have lasted without your animation of Talon!

Coasters- a little slice of heaven

I'm sure the invert Knotts gets will be superb, maybe the best, if Talon is any indication of Cedar Fair and B&M's commitment to making excellent rides.
