Washington Post Article on Knoebel's and John Fetterman

Sweet. I asked him about the brakes on the Flying Turns and mentioned the Jet Star's belt brake in Santa Cruz. I seemed to know quite a bit about that and now I know why.

I know quite a few people that prefer Twister. I guess it depends on what you like in a coaster.

I think part of Twister's problem (if you could even call it that) is that it's sort of isolated and there are no other attractions near it to draw people.

Phoenix or Twister, Twister or Phoenix... sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't. I think the folks at Knoebels are glad to cause such a dilemma among its customers. Now what will we do when the Turns are complete?

I guess decide if we feel like a nut, or something else entirely? ;)

When the Turns are complete, we start chanting "wood wild mouse" in Fetterman's ear.

How about a side friction coaster like Leap the Dips but with blocking to allow more cars to operate?

Or just really good bumpers. ;)
