My park,

Tahitian Wonderland

Come to Tahitian Wonderland, the all-new themepark in southern California. Bask in the sun, lying under the palm trees that line the Pacific Ocean, or take a spin on one of our world-class roller coasters, including Millennium Force, the best roller coaster on the planet.

Coming in to the draft, I had a srtaegy already in my head, and I stuck pretty closely to it, except for missing one turn, and FN taking about 3 of my picks. IMO each of my coasters offer a different expeirence, and focus on different aspects of roller coasters in general. Here's why:

Millennium Force - http://www.rcdb.com/id594.htm - Raw speed and height, not forgetting that amazing first drop, and some sustained floater air.

Raptor - http://www.rcdb.com/id1.htm - one of the best inverts in the world, with some really strong forces, and six inversions

Raven - http://www.rcdb.com/id136.htm - Awsome terrian woodie. It's ben around for a while, but I always hear good things about it, especially at night.

Colossos - http://www.rcdb.com/qs.htm?quicksearch=colossos - Smooth plug and play woodie. Oh, don't forget the airtime!

Atlantis Adventure - http://www.rcdb.com/id1646.htm - Whoa, launched water coaster, not to mention that amazing theming.

Shivering Timbers - http://www.rcdb.com/id478.htm - Look at all that airtime!

Incredible Hulk - http://www.rcdb.com/id557.htm - Launch into zero-g roll, what more could you want?

Rita: Queen of Speed - http://www.rcdb.com/id2787.htm - Intense launch, high-g turns, and even a little bit of airitme.

Boulder Dash - http://www.rcdb.com/id602.htm - Second best coaster in the world, flying through the trees, one amazing ride!

X - http://www.rcdb.com/id750.htm - the only fourth-dimension coaster in the world!! Yikes.

Kraken - http://www.rcdb.com/id581.htm - An amazing floorless coaster with seven inversions.

These are the reasons why my park kicks butt. It has a great array of coasters, and would be an excellent way to spend a couple of days.

VOTE FOR ME!!!

The horizon has changed over the flat fields of central Illinois. A new park has popped up and with it 11 of the best coasters in the world. Megas, hypers, stratas, woodies, dive machines, flyers, impulses; you can find it ALL at Limits Garden Adventureland.With 11 coasters an none the same, your day will be unique and exciting from entry to exit. Located in a former cornfield, you can see for up to 20 miles from the top of our highest coasters. Beautiful scenery and service, never will you be dissapointed at Limits Garden. Specializing in roller coasters, below is the list and highlights of each.

Hades-The Ride Through Hell

Image

Standing at 136', over 4000' long, and a 1000' long tunnel, Hades will leave you speechless and wanting to return back to hell!

Top Thrill Dragster-Race For The Sky

Image

Race to 120mph in 3.8 seconds, climb to 420 feet, then you've got 2 seconds to catch your breath before your spiral 270degrees straight down at over 100mph. Glide into the brakes and ask yourself, "Can I go again?"

SkeiKra

Image

Ready to dive? Well you can on SheiKra. Standing at 200', reaching speeds of 70mph, throwing water on the competition, and diving twice, SkeiKra is the worlds only inverting dive machine.

Nitro

Image

Over a mile long, 230' amd 80mph, Nitro is the ultimate out-and-back. 9 points of airtime to keep the lines full.

Montu

Image

150' tall, 60mph, an awesome theme, and 7 inversions will make this one of your favorite inverted roller coasters in the world. Eye-popping trenches and non-stop pacing will keep you mummified.

Mantis

Image

150', 60mph, 4 inversions including the favorite dive loop, Mantis is the best stand-up coaster ever drawn on paper.

The Boss

Image

A 150' first drop at speeds of 67mph makes The Boss one of the tallest, fastest, longest woodies around. 4 major hills with 12 points of airtime. Make sure to hold on, The Boss is not afraid to throw you around!

Superman: Ultimate Flight

Image

With the pretzel loop, Superman will leave you soaring. Flying and seeing the ground rush by is one of the most unique feelings in the world. 2 inversions make Superman a favorite at the park.

V2

Image

V2 is an impulse coaster with speeds of 70mph. The coaster will launch you up the spike, you'll fall back, fly up the back spike and be held over water until you are released to fall back into the station. Breathless all the way.

Mr. Freeze

Image

Freeze will launch you to 70mph in under 3 seconds. How about the worlds tallest inversion, you'll get it on Freeze, a weightless tophat into a g-force ladden overbank until you shoot up the 90 degree spike only to do it all again...backwards.

The Ninja

Image

An Arrow coaster from Canada, Ninja is a 4 inversion looping coaster with high gs, amazing head-choppers, and some headbanging to go with it. A must for the junior rider.


I hope you enjoy your stay at Limits Gardens Adventureland. Ya'll come back now, ya hear!





screamomatic:

Up in the beautiful cottage country of northren Ontario lies Belwood Lake Amusment Park and Resort.

With 11 amazing roller coasters, it's on everyones must visit list this summer. And if the roller coasters don't float your boat, Belwood Lake amusment Park and Resort is home to over 187 other fantastic flat rides and attractions. Belwood lake Amusment Park and Resort is also home to a famous hotel and a Famous Restaurant selling 2 pound hamburgers(the place is called wimpy burgers near my house, the hamburgers are massive)

To let you get prepared for a one-of-a-kind experience, we'll provide a short description of our famous roller coasters.

We start with the Magnum XL-200, a beast of a hyper coaster with a 205' drop!
http://www.rcdb.com/ig11.htm?picture=1

The second ride you'll come across is the Riddlers Revenge. A stand-up coaster that takes you through 3 minutes of twisting track and invesions.

http://www.rcdb.com/ig470.htm?picture=7

The next ride will really knock you of your feet. The Cornball Express Roller coaster is a wooden coaster that has a wicked first drop. It's 2100' of pure fun and adrenaline.
http://www.rcdb.com/ig741.htm?picture=1

Next on the list an amzing racing/dueling coaster called Lightning Racer.
This thing is an amzing coaster that just keeps going and going, and is one of GCI's best.

http://www.rcdb.com/ig597.htm?picture=4

The next coaster, Apollo's Chariot, is another hyper coaster, a bit more advanced then it's counter-part, it's a smooth, fun ride with an amazing layout. It's one of the best.

http://www.rcdb.com/ig531.htm?picture=2

This one is an Inverted Coaster, and one heck of an inverted coaster it is. It's called Top-Gun, themed after the movie, it's a ride full of tists and turns... and 6 invesions.

http://www.rcdb.com/ig527.htm?picture=5

This next one is a classic. The Phoenix is the parks second oldest Coaster, and was built by the park itself. It has drops and turns and a load of airtime, it proves that that coaster dosen't have to be 400 feet tall to be one of the best.

http://www.rcdb.com/ig143.htm?picture=2

The first thing you see when you enter Bala, Ontario, is the Twister roller coaster. This monster of a wooden coaster, has so many drops and turns, you'll love it from start to finish.

http://www.rcdb.com/ig546.htm?picture=3

This next one is another inverted coaster, but bigger. Pyrenees will throw you 6 amazing inversions and give you a truly unique ride. (don't ask why I picked two inverts)

http://www.rcdb.com/ig1227.htm?picture=4

The wooden coaster of the past, this wooden coaster has survived a war and a depression. The Giant Dipper has been around since 5/17/1924 making the oldest coaster in the park. Although it's an old-timer, it's a fun and amazing ride.
http://www.rcdb.com/ig204.htm?picture=3

The tinyest, but most most unique coaster in the park is the Kiddy sized lasso Loop. This ride will please the smallest coaster riders and pretty much everyone else too. Don't forget to hold on :)
http://www.rcdb.com/ig949.htm?picture=1

Discover Ontario, And don't forget to stop by Belwood Lake Amusment Park and Resort while you're here.

Timberwood Theme Park

A Gnome Valley Park


Located in the beautiful area of Indiana, just a half hour away from some of the biggest cities comes a park of large scale porportions. We have a larger variety of family shows, as well as attractions. We have many flat rides, as well as other attractions for thrill seaksers alike. And award winning food that will make your smile with every bite! But its our coasters where we stand out the most! From the insane air time of Superman:ROS, to the knotted track of Poltergeist, this park is a thrill seeker's dream come true! In fact, its such a perfect collection of rides we wouldn't know what to throw in next!

1. Superman: RIde of Steel - SFNE
This 208 foot tall ride is sworn to be the best roller coaster in America by all who ride. Internationally, its second only to Expedition GeForce, a sure highlight of your park visit, but only one of many fantastic rides we have at Timberwood.
http://www.rcdb.com/id628.htm

2. Hyrdra: the revenge
What this ride lacks in size, it makes up for with its unique element pattern, and its unique use of terain. This mother of twistedness features 7 twisted inversions as well as several pops of "floater air" - a thrill seakers best friend.
http://www.rcdb.com/id2528.htm

3. Katun
Hold on tight for this inverted coaster. With six inversions and speeds of up to 64 mph, you will fly through trenches and hit up to 4 g's! This intense B&M is highly acclaimed, and is rated as one of the best of its type!
http://www.rcdb.com/qs.htm?quicksearch=katun

4. Kanonen
Living proof that bigger isn't always better! This ride feautres an adrenaline rushing launch at 0 - 46.6 mph in 3 seconds using a unique hydrolic launch. After launching over a top hat which provides plenty of air time, you'll be riding head over hills through 2 inversions, as well as giving you some more air time in between elements, don't let the size full you. It'll blow you away!
http://www.rcdb.com/qs.htm?quicksearch=kanonen

5. Ghost Rider
This classic double "Out-N-Back" feautures a 108 foot drop, and has been featured in many top ten list for many years in a row since its debut in 1998. Designed by the team of CCI, it features 14 hills, and 10 cross overs. Definately a ride you'll want to ride again, and again!
http://www.rcdb.com/qs.htm?quicksearch=ghost+rider

6. Wicked Twister
Our second inverter. Standing at 215 feet high, this 72 mph ride is sure to thrill. You are a catapulted by LIM (Linear Induction Motor) and sent spiralling through 2 tall spike. At the top you experence sevearl seconds of weightlessness.
http://www.rcdb.com/qs.htm?quicksearch=wicked+twister

7. Space Mountain
This classic will be a hit among families. With its 40" hight restraint, it is easily accessable by smaller children, thus making it a great starter ride for future coaster enthusiests! But don't let the hight limit fool you, this is an action packed E-Ticket attraction all thrill seakers will enjoy.
http://www.rcdb.com/id2491.htm

8. Tremors
Our 2nd wooden coaster. This is also built by the guys of CCI. Unlike Ghost Rider, this is a twister wooden coaster feautering lats and air time galore! But wait, it gets better, you dash through 4 high speed tunnels, and your treated
to an opening drop that "Is among the best" - ACE Members.
http://www.rcdb.com/qs.htm?quicksearch=tremors

9. Air
The first B&M flying machine to be manufactured. This unique ride gives you the sensation of flying as you glide under and over paths. As you gracefully glide across the track, you will go through several unique elements that will make your experience on this ride, a memorable one!
http://www.rcdb.com/id1458.htm

10. Canyon Blaster
This unique Arrow is a blast. Although only 94 feet tall, its unique theming provides the thrill. The opening drop gives "air time" to people riding in the back as they rip through 4 inversions (2 loops, 2 corkscrews) and then wrap around the canyon wall in a very exciting helix, and then hit the breaks. Although short, this ride will make you want to come back time and time again!
http://www.rcdb.com/id104.htm

11. Poltergeist
Designed by Premier Rides, this mean scream machine blasts you 60 miles per hour into one twisted mess of track. Featuring 4 inversions, and up to 4.5 g's, its hard not to like this ride. It's 1:15 second of bliss you'll want to ride over and over again!
http://www.rcdb.com/qs.htm?quicksearch=Poltergeist


- Writers Thoughts
Why should you pick this park? Well it contains a large mix of rides that are great for many reasons. There are a fair amount of wooden coasters for any person who prefers wood, as well as lots of inversions for those kinds of people. And of course we have our share of B&M and Intamin. And for those of you just interested in air time, we have an abondence of that as well. We also have highly themed rides for those people who prefer those type, as well as a nice thrilling family coaster that is easily excessible by the younger thrill seekers.
Please vote for me!
