How many of you actually use the headphone jack on your phone? by Chadteeka in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

Yeah still have one on my phone, still use it daily. I won't buy a phone without one. Still rocking the apple wired headphones 10 years later. Still have a headphone jack in my car.

Recommended laser cutters for beginners on a budget? by Chadteeka in c/[email protected]

I second the k40. I've had mine a few years and it's a champ. I have exhaust hooked up so everything gets vented. Those open air diode lasers scare me I'd def burn my eyes out.

Top Thrill 2 official announcement by Chadteeka in c/[email protected]

So I recently just got on Ka and Stormrunner recently, after missing TTD by a week, and xcelerator at knots the previous 2 years. And I don't know, the top hat seems to play second fiddle to the absolute batshit insane launch. Like, you could launch me to 120mph and then hit the brake run and I still think it'd be like, 60-70% as good. The top speed is sick though, and I do love the reverse spike on like say Mr freeze. I'm sure it'll be a blast, but Im mostly curious about throughput with 3 trains.

Also, does anyone think they had this being planned out as far back as removing wicked twister? They seem like kinda similar layout wise, and would look similar in the skyline. Still cool though.

Are you able to physically relax your body when you go on rides? by Chadteeka in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah man. If you hold on to whatever you're essentially negating the forces. I pretty much go full limp ragdoll mode. (except for holding my hands up). Wooden coasters that are a little more textured I will hold on, but for the majority of rides yes.

Discussion: What are your biggest buzzkill moments on roller coasters? by Chadteeka in c/[email protected]

I don't like how it's hard to put your hands up on a lot of B&Ms. Trims that hit to hard, getting stapled, having people who's hands are up hit you in the face, any kind of a rattle with OTSRs. Whatever tho I'm good at ignoring that shit and having fun.

With no raptors built last year, one ground up and one conversion, which coasters are you hoping for RMC to look at for next year? I don't have high hopes for RMC/Boss with Selim but, I can only hope. It's so rough even with the trackwork that gets done on it. I think it has the potential to be the best RMC conversion yet. Or do y'all think titan track would be a better route? I'm also hoping for a park to get a custom/terrain raptor but ehh.

Giant canyon swing always gets me. Obvi it has the positives and floater like any s&s swing, but the acrophobia of feeling like youre about to be hurled off a cliff, combined with the amazing scenery makes it such a top notch installation for me.

What kind of merch do you get when visiting parks? Feel free to share collections. by Chadteeka in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Park maps are priority one. I've got a workbench area that has all my ski and theme park maps. I'll buy a shirt if I find one that isn't awful. I always look but probably only buy one every third park I go to. And then always get a pic of me and whoever I was on the trip with.

Do y'all have any memories of being at parks before you were tall enough to ride? (lemm.ee)

This might not apply to everyone as I've talked to people that have no memories of before they were like 10, but, I have memories of going to astroworld in the early 90s when I was about 4 or 5 years old. I specifically remember ultratwister as looking insane and just having my mind blown watching it. I also remember Texas Cyclone as being just huge and loud. I was reassured by my parents that next year I would be tall enough to ride, but alas, we moved out califori-way and I never got any of the creds. Oh well, still lives on in my memory as a fun time.
