I’ve gone to cedar point three times and always thought if I’m going to Ohio I’m going to cedar point but my brother is going to college in Ohio and it is close to kings island so maybe I could get to it
🤤 I am so depressed😩😩. Haven’t ridden a good coaster since 2019 before COVID😷😭😭 we got season passes to worlds of fun, but those aren’t that good coasters, and the cedar fair pays no attention to it, it’s weak
I'm glad that even though Sarah is an Orlando coaster enthusiast, she doesn't always compare everything do Disney or universal. A lot of Florida thoosies do that
>Orlando coaster enthusiast. Hell Busch Gardens has the best coaster lineup at any single park in Florida. And that's nothing compared to Ohio as a whole
I believe a lot of that has to do with the amount of people on the trains. From what I remember when I was there in October they were loading every other row, so more people will add more wait to the train this time around
Is it just me, or does it seem that rides have been breaking down a LOT this year? Gatekeeper’s chain broke, HQ Spinsanity at SFA had a dampener issue with a leg, now Toro derailed at SFGAd. What is happening? Also, the reason why Orion seems like a giant hyper is because it WAS originally a hyper; KI told everyone that the rumored CGA hyper was canceled and supersized for Kings Island
rollercoasters and other rides have to be continuously moving at all times. because of covid, all parks were shut down for almost a year, so no rollercoasters were operating, and that causes issues. that’s just how rollercoasters work, idk the technical part of it, but they have to operate frequently or else issues will arise LMAO
I dont want an RMC of Beast, but what about a Titan Track makeover? The double helix needs to remain unchanged, but if Titan track could be used to update the layout and remove some of the trims in the first half, the Beast could once again be world class
It's ironic, I went to HW, then KK, then KI last week! Had never been to KK, it had been 18 years for HW and 20 years for KI. I went to the dark side and got the Fast Lane Plus for my second day at KI, but I got on so many rides! I loved their "Big 3" B&M's. I hadn't been to any medium or large parks in 15 years, it was great to get back out. As for Orion, I can't really compare it to other gigas since the only other one I've ever been on is MF. But overall I preferred both Banshee and Diamondback.
Well they gotta do SOMETHING. Retrack it like the Racer or something. I love the ride, have been riding since I was a teen. But it’s REALLY rough this year. I almost dread it 😂
@@nathansarley1712 not that it would be better its just that it effected the coaster industry drastically........ace made it a coaster land mark and rmcing it would take away the glory
I'm definitely a bigger theme park fan than amusement park fan. For example, Knotts is my second favorite Cedar Fair park. That being said, I really have to tip my hat to Kings Island. As amusement parks go it's really an incredible place with excellent atmosphere and a very well balanced ride collection.
I love how even those who are somehow still hung up over Cedar Fair’s own nomenclature on what constitutes a giga (Boring! Please get over it.) still have to admit to the less snobbish GP masses that Orion is a really great ride! BTW it’s 300 feet from the lowest point on the first drop. It’s not built on flat ground. If you come up with a category, you get to define its parameters. Full disclosure: I’ve just had one ride on it and it was literally less than a week ago. In addition, the only other giga I’ve ridden is Millennium Force and that was in 2000 and 2003 (which also gets unfair hate). That said, everyone I was with, myself included, thought Orion was amazing! It was smooth, fast and had amazing air time with no pain when we rode it! That should be a winner in anyone’s book! In the end it’s how it makes you feel! Oh and I vote to keep maintaining The Beast the way it is! … well, maybe some Gravity Group treatment could help without completely changing the experience. It’s a piece of Roller Coaster History like The Racer! (Just don’t sit over an axle in the last car! OW!) Some things are worth preserving. There are plenty of choices of parks and coasters from which to choose. Kings Island is a very popular park! It will survive loosing a few of us. Let’s not remove everything that makes Kings Island so unique! That’s a truly great park with a rich history! We just don’t need to RMC everything! Let’s keep some of the icons! … and please understand that I appreciate the fact that coaster channels must walk a fine line and deliver content appropriate to their target audience. Taylor, you are the great mediator. You do it with class! Thank you for your open mind and very helpful content! I love the enthusiasm you and Sarah bring to this hobby. There’s room for everyone here, even us pensioners!
@@appalachianenthusiast9499 Yes it is, Cedar Fair coined the term, and it’s for marketing purposes. Watch ElToroRyan’s gigs brake run video. If it sounds like I’m hating I’m not, I’m just saying the Orion is a giga.
Recognized Paul working Orion a few weeks ago but wasn't 100% sure it was him aha. Wow, should have said something. Been waiting for this video! KI was fantastic. Every ride was hauling at their maximum pace. Beast was rough though!
@@SunshineStateCoasters sorry to hear that, ive met him twice already this year. simple little conversation and went our ways. told him i enjoy the channel etc.
Orion's at its best....but yeah, I know the Flight of Fear inside the exit has a bunch of old VHS videotapes.....Makes me wonder what Kings Island's doing with this nowadays....Definitely can't wait to celebrate Kings Island's 50th Anniversary Golden Celebration in a couple months even though it's already fast approaching now.
I started the day with Orion which was awesome, but I think I preferred Diamondback to it for most of the day. At the end of the day though, I finished with 3 straight rides on it, and now it's my favorite at the park! Also just inside my top 10 as well. Right behind MF.
Agreed, I found myself enjoying DB more overall bc it''s not as intense. DB is just so re-rideable whereas Orion leaves me needing a break after greying out on the upward helix. Still an insane experience going through that first banked turn and turnaround 200+ feet in the air
After riding both a ton last year and this year, I’m pretty certain I like Diamondback better overall. You can’t beat the drop on Orion, but Diamondback gives such amazing air time. I love it. I think my top 3 in the park are Diamondback, Mystic Timbers, and Banshee.
RMCing the Beast would carry and automatic eternal sentience in hell. People seem to forget that terrain coasters are their own genre and shouldn’t be compared to other woodies.
I love Cedar Point but you’ll get twice as many rides at Kings Island. Great operations. I am at Kings Island every week. The Racer is much better this year. This must be an old vid, cuz KI has been open until 10pm for a week.
Taylor you are probably aware of this but if you got your platinum pass from Kings Dominion, you have $50 on your pass as a reward since they did not open last year. Just wanted to remind you in case you forgot. I am assuming you got your pass from Kings Dominion, as much as you travel I could be wrong, but didn’t want you to miss out on free money.
I appreciate the tip on getting your hand far enough back on diamondback to get drenched. Did it today on last ride and got fantastic results. Whole left side of body soaked.
i went last year in October and got a night ride on Orion and its 10/10 only two complaints I had was didn't get to try blueberry boba tea and I missed out on banshee it was closed
Kings island literally being a 15 min drive for me: 1 visit this year
Carowinds literally being a 8 hour drive for me: 2 visits this year
Your closer than me
Logic 👏
I’m the same way but with holiday world
I go to Dollywood like 12 times a year and I live about 5 hours away but Carowinds I haven’t been to in 4 years but it’s like 1 hour away
same with me, i live 30 minutes from darien lake but we go to canadas wonderland and hp alot
Im proud to have this as my home park
I went in early June and it was awesome!
I’ve gone to cedar point three times and always thought if I’m going to Ohio I’m going to cedar point but my brother is going to college in Ohio and it is close to kings island so maybe I could get to it
🤤 I am so depressed😩😩. Haven’t ridden a good coaster since 2019 before COVID😷😭😭 we got season passes to worlds of fun, but those aren’t that good coasters, and the cedar fair pays no attention to it, it’s weak
I was working my way up to Steel vengeance, and too thrill, but I rode maverick and magnum and such
Lol Orion is no Fury 325
I'm glad that even though Sarah is an Orlando coaster enthusiast, she doesn't always compare everything do Disney or universal. A lot of Florida thoosies do that
"thoosies"... wow. Just wow, lol.
@@ivanooze1049 I'm not proud of it... It felt right considering the new generation of coaster enthusiasts call themselves thoosies
And shes a total smoke show. 🔥
>Orlando coaster enthusiast. Hell Busch Gardens has the best coaster lineup at any single park in Florida. And that's nothing compared to Ohio as a whole
@@seminoleboy96 if bgt ever adds an intamin, b&m, or mack hyper it wins Florida. For now it's a battle between bgt, sea world, and islands
I’m so glad I got to ride Firehawk before it closed. It was a really fun ride.
Easily the most underrated ride out there!
I was absolutely furious when KI demolished that! Orion should’ve replaced Vortex or Invertigo! Those are both piece of shits!
Same man
Same I love flying coasters
Wish they didn't take it away loved the ride to
0:20 “we just got here and we’re already roasting Orion”
I feel like Orion is running SIGNIFICANTLY better this year than it was last year. Not only is it smoother, but this thing hauls butt!
It’s my 1 in the park
Full trains probably helps.
I believe a lot of that has to do with the amount of people on the trains. From what I remember when I was there in October they were loading every other row, so more people will add more wait to the train this time around
@Zacheroni mystic is was insane last week while I was there. It was flying!
If this is smooth, I’m glad I didn’t make the trip last year. I didn’t like Orion and it gave me a massive headache
Ready for the Michigans Adventure & Minnesota vlogs!
Same. Can’t wait!
I saw you in line for Orion! And then I got stuck on it lol
Love seeing my home park on your videos!
Is it just me, or does it seem that rides have been breaking down a LOT this year? Gatekeeper’s chain broke, HQ Spinsanity at SFA had a dampener issue with a leg, now Toro derailed at SFGAd. What is happening?
Also, the reason why Orion seems like a giant hyper is because it WAS originally a hyper; KI told everyone that the rumored CGA hyper was canceled and supersized for Kings Island
Maybe because during their down time of COVID they couldn't keep up with maintenance. Hence why lots of issues
Add shivering timbers and voyage to the list
And poltergeist at fiesta texas got stranded mid-course with riders on it 💀
And now skyrush’s chain also snapped!
rollercoasters and other rides have to be continuously moving at all times. because of covid, all parks were shut down for almost a year, so no rollercoasters were operating, and that causes issues. that’s just how rollercoasters work, idk the technical part of it, but they have to operate frequently or else issues will arise LMAO
I just went to Kings Island for the first time last weekend and it was a blast!
I dont want an RMC of Beast, but what about a Titan Track makeover? The double helix needs to remain unchanged, but if Titan track could be used to update the layout and remove some of the trims in the first half, the Beast could once again be world class
they could also remove the trims after the second lift hill
the helix is still awesome, but it would be better without those trims
The beast only needs basic retracking, nothing else.
You should do updates coaster reviews for KI!
Me: can't wait to see Sarah go to KI for the first time
0:00: already roasting the park
Why were they roasting the park?
It's ironic, I went to HW, then KK, then KI last week! Had never been to KK, it had been 18 years for HW and 20 years for KI.

NEVER RMC THE BEAST
If they do I’ll stop visiting
Well they gotta do SOMETHING. Retrack it like the Racer or something. I love the ride, have been riding since I was a teen. But it’s REALLY rough this year. I almost dread it 😂
I agree it is rough and they should retrack it, but they definitely shouldn’t RMC it, sure it’ll probably be better but that would just ruin the ride
@@nathansarley1712 not that it would be better its just that it effected the coaster industry drastically........ace made it a coaster land mark and rmcing it would take away the glory
agreed
Beast has gotten absurdly rough, won't be riding it again till something is done.
Turning The Beast into an RMC is a horrible idea. Its too legendary and iconic. Don't touch it.
they could re-track it though, then they could maybe remove the trims on the drop after the second lift hill.
do you think they could RMC The racer though
@@MooseGooseThe1st No. The Racer was re-tracked over the winter and it feels like a new ride.
@@KyleGMathews true
i guess they would have to make a hard decision if they decided to RMC anything. Or they could have RMC build a ride for the ground up.

How long did this take to type?
Go To Cedar Point Is Better Then Kings Island.
crazy experience seeing you there! me and my friends were going nuts lmao. greetings from Florida😎
Unpopular opinion Beast>mystic timbers
If the beast was RMCed… can you imagine…. All that RMC straight track?
When Sarah says to RMC the beast:
👁 👄 👁
Just to be clear... Sarah does know that Orion is a giga. Right?
I was wondering the same thing.
But is it a Giga? Kings Island could claim it to be the world's tallest hyper.
@@appalachianenthusiast9499 instead, it’s the world’s shortest giga.
@@appalachianenthusiast9499 Yes it is, Cedar Fair coined the term, and it’s for marketing purposes. Watch ElToroRyan’s gigs brake run video. If it sounds like I’m hating I’m not, I’m just saying the Orion is a giga.
You no she's kidding right.
Pro tip: try to get last ride of the night on flight of fear. They turn the lights on
I think I've heard something like this, but is this fr?
@@NoOne0716 I can confirm from my own experience that it is real
There was a period where they ran it with the lights on years ago, it was cool.
"THE CICADAS ARE EVERYWHERE, THEY'RE SO LOUD"
**cries in maryland** 😭😭😂
Great vlog, saw you in line for Orion because when it broke down I was on the train on the break run😂
Sara’s hot tbh
I was just at KI on the 22nd and 23rd for my first time. Orion is my #2 giga of the 5 in North America!
5:38 Sorry, Sarah, but there is absolutely no way that the Beast will get the RMC treatment. EVER!
Beast at night is the best thing the park has lol 😂
Recognized Paul working Orion a few weeks ago but wasn't 100% sure it was him aha. Wow, should have said something. Been waiting for this video! KI was fantastic. Every ride was hauling at their maximum pace. Beast was rough though!
7:45 "I took this massive poopy earlier, it was like out of the water!" - IJ Wright
So I am going to Kings Island, first time in 25 years. Besides Beast, what is the best night ride(coaster)?
Note: don’t give Taylor your burger
I have a pass to kings island (Because I live near it) i've been so many times that I started speaking with anouncment lady at 0:25 lol
That moment when Taylor visits your home park, you have a season pass, but you made plans for the day without knowing 🙃
He wouldn’t hang with you anyway. Nothing against you, that’s just who he is
@@SunshineStateCoasters but hes ok with a simple how are you.
@@IxBl4ckH4rtxI tried that didn’t work lol

@@IxBl4ckH4rtxI True true, good for you!
I have not been to Kinds Island since I lived in Ohio. I was 17 ish and now almost 50 OMG!
Its technically a giga because the drop is 300 feet
Tom and Chee shark tank
who else thinks they need to remodel the entrance at Kings Island
Many people. Really, it just needs a new facade that isn't just a sloped roof.
@@DoomPlague exactly
@@DoomPlague at least make it look nicer. The coloring is very ugly.
@@DoomPlague i heard they’re saving it because there some sort of restaurant above where those windows are. I’m not sure if I trust that or not.
Orion would be better than fury if the first two elements werent airtimeless turns
Nice video
Valley fair next???
OMG I was riding the beast before ya was alive lol
bro you didnt yell slayer to the dude with the shirt im disappointed
Kings Island needs to at least re-track The Beast, I think it would be a much better ride if they did
Also, imaging what a Son of Beast RMC would be like...
*imagine
imagine that
I've never been to King's Island-
0:39 Bruh you went to Winterfest 7 months ago
Correct, but it wasn't much of a visit considering only half of the park was open and I only got on one ride
Are you planning on doing more Coaster Parodies?
If so could you do more kings island ones? Banshee, the beast, and Orion
there will be more parodies in the future, yes
@@CoasterStudios yay! Thanks for replying to my comment!
Are you spending the 4th in a park
Nice to see Paul back.
For sure.
Did yall hear about toro derailing
Orion is awesome at night. I just rode it after fireworks last night, but Fury is still the best.
Fury is so overrated. Once it hits the helix, it is an uneventful snoozefest to the break-run. Unlike Orion which keeps its speed till the end.
Take takoda so he can have ridden all the US gigas
I was on a train for mystic in the vlog lol

you've got some weird sunglasses tan lines going on
lollll
Great Park!

Sorry for breaking Orion right before you guys got on the last ride of the night, it’s my job lol 😂
Edit: wait, was this a different day?
i went last year in October and got a night ride on Orion and its 10/10 only two complaints I had was didn't get to try blueberry boba tea and I missed out on banshee it was closed
Taylor thoughts about the el Toro derailment? Do you think the whole track will get retracted?
Orion is 301 foot not 287 just saying
It's also a giga Coaster
Why was the chicken sandwich eaten like that hahaha
Ask Tyler lol
fun video, you should have ridden the bat. a old friend is working it this year.
I'm wondering when they going to revive Son Of Beast.
never
They should rebuild it just so that it can be RMC'd
Funny thing is I seen you at kings island Taylor a few weeks ago
Did you guys see Logan operating the Drop Tower?
It’s a blessing to be only 15 minutes away. Fury is definitely better but Orion’s drop is more powerful.
Taylor it seems like you’ve gave Sarah 42069 credits already. Where is her ring?
Me looking for myself because I was there all day 😎✌️
Alright I'll say it, I have a crush on Paul.
what day did you guys go? i was recently there i wanna see if we were there at the same time
I’ve never been to kings island I can’t wait to go
can you do a montu coaster parody please
Real Cincinnatians do NOT want the beast "RMC'ed"
i saw you on diamondback here but i didn’t get a chance to say hi.
Yo el toro derailed while I was in line
How dare you talk bad about the beast
The beast at night is all time fun
Hi Will, Jed, Peter, Jacob, Tyler. I miss y’all 🥺🥲
Please do orian coaster parady
My home park is kings island its a great home park
Taylor, what is your opinion on Excalibur at ValleyFair?
Valleyfair video coming soon!
I WAS HERE TODAY!!
How would Sarah rate Kings Island as a park overall?
she loved the park!
