So I'll be off to Kennywood this Tuesday, any pictures you guys want? I'll be taking a lot since this is our annual Physics Day

[TTD03]

Nice schedule. Any pics of Phantom's new magnetic brakes would be nice!

[Paradox]

Get a picture of Phantom's hot support that goes under Thunderbolt.

Black Widow pics.

Woah that was quick...

I'll definitely get some pics of Phantom from all sorts of angles, I got to pick it to research for our Physics project!

I never plan I just do a last minute trip to a park

^^ Physics rock in that way! Coaster related!

Just realized that I forgot to post pics from my first trip. Whoops!

Anyways, I'll be heading up again tomorrow, anything you guys want to see? I'll get around to uploading the pictures from the first trip either tonight or tomorrow night!

Don't have much in the way of full trip reports here, since Kennywood is my home-park and the visits were both within a month of each other, so there wasn't much of a difference in the trips.

Also with the fact that there's beenno new major additions since 2012

5/19/15 - Physics Day!

The day consisted of us bascially running back and forth between the main coasters, since we only had ~5-6 hours at the park. So here's some general pics from the short day

Greetings, fellow nerds!

The new 4D Theater under construction

Even on a cloudy day, Phantom still looks amazing!

So naturally, we had to hop on first thing, and it was practically a walk-on!

And in true Pittsburgh fashion, the clouds disappear in a matter of minutes as we walk the queue, leaving us with a sunny day. I seriously don't understand this weather

Nerd pics

Hello Black Widow!

Got to sit and watch the very eventful process of adding the second train

I'm sickened, but curious

Two best things at the park

Skyrocket was a walk on all day!

When the Dippin' Dots line is longer than Skyrocket

That score though:


I may or may not have been associated with the man in the umbrella hat

Goodnight! At 6pm!

6/5/15 - Picnic Day!

Time for the annual Kennywood Picnic Day! Kind of sucks that I only have one of these left before I'm off to college, so we decided to make the most out of this one, in case something happens next year! I didn't snap too many pics, but a lot of the ones I did get were some incredible shots of the Phantom at sunset

Two legends

Storms a'comin!

What would a Picnic Day at Kennywood be without a surprise thunderstorm?

Waiting for the Phantom to reopen

Barely a line when we get there!

Looking even more beautiful in the sunset

Is that... the Volcano? Running?

Here's to two more awesome trips!

Great trip report!
Been thinking I should go one for the 30 SFGADV visits.

-Phone glitched and added the post twice, and CC won't give me the option to delete-

Was finally able to confirm our BGW trip this week while we're staying at VA Beach (parents originally planned for Motor World - they are hard to convince )! We'll be heading out tomorrow, with a chance of storms and the heat to hopefully drive away large crowds.

So excited to be going back, especially since my first trip out got cut short and ruined by the crappy weather! Are there any pictures you guys would like me to get while there? I will also be making a trip video, so if there's any cool shots you'd like to suggest I get, let me know!

Haha, you won!
