Mystic Timbers - Kings Island's 2017 GCI POV!

^A teaser. I like it. So I have been cycling the ride this week for training nd all i can say is until you cansee the ride and EVERYTHING in perosn, pictures cannot describe how amazing it is. Another thing I would like to say is, Adam House is a really cool and neat guy to talk to. I will release the pictures I have later on down the road (one is a picture with Adam himself). In the meantime, you can be sure to see a TR from the first rider event on Thursday, as well as a full TR from opening day!

The TR will be posted here: https://www.coastercrazy.com/forums/coastin-through-the-ohio-region-2017-t36876.html

Let me speculate! A "spinning" transfer track giving an image of a crazy car spin!

^ AT LONG LAST! AS EXPECTED! +

Most airtime on a gci? That looked great!
Also was that a droptrack in the shed I'm not sure.

I wouldn't get your hopes up for anything more than a light show. POV looks fun at least.

That 2nd drop looks fantastic; I bet it will be insane in the back. Pacing is spot on too; way better than I thought it would be. As for the shed: there is what looks like a diagonal disconnect on the track and brakes on the segment; and the storage track is right next to it so there isn't much room for horizontal movement. I'm betting some kind of simulated track failure type thing.

Anyways congrats to KI for finally getting a decent wooden coaster.

If anyone wants the Shed partially spoiled, skip to around 2:05 in this video.

So as media day is winding down and the first rider event coming up later tonight I wanted to share this picture. As many of you know, I work at the park. Mystic Timbers to be exact and I'm also trying to get into the Industry. And while we have been doing stuff over the past of a couple weeks, Adam House (pictured on the right) (lead designer for Great Coasters International) was kind enough to answer some of my questions about how to get into the industry, some other GCIs that are new for this year and older ones from the past, asking who I post as on KICentral and even taking this picture with me! So as everyone gets a ride on Mystic, I just want to say thank you Adam House for taking some time and answering some of my questions and showing me the right way to get into the industry!

I like Adam House, he's a real friendly guy. Glad you got to speak with him and learn some good things.

I find that shed part to be entertaining, too! The "music" tunnel concept amazes me!

Wow the shed sucks

I never expected the Shed to be anything amazing so I'm not too disappointed. The rest of the ride looks fast and fun and should have plenty of airtime.

Yeah, that shed is a let-down.

I knew it was gonna be a light show but I wasn't expecting it to be so cheesy and anticlimactic.

I don't think that "musical" shed is bad! Each to their own, though.
