    Kennywood is such a little gem of a park. My first visit as an adult was a few months back... Nice and small, easy to knock everything out in less than a day if you wanted, but also packed with enough things to do in such a small footprint you could spend all day there.
    Love all the historical rides. Park for sure gives off those old timey vibes but in a great way. And the coasters are really top notch.

      I remember it being fun as long as I remembered to press my head back against the seat. It was intense and I remember it took a few minutes after the ride was over for me to feel normal. I haven't been to KW since 1995 moved from the area in 1998, so I was bummed to find out it changed through yt and that the Log Jammer is gone. Glad to see the woodies are being preserved though.

    I've never been to Kennywood while the Steel Curtain was open. I'm floored at how long it seems to last compared to the Sky Rocket. It looks like a very distinctive and unique ride. I'm not afraid of loops, but I do have to say, I prefer the Phantom because it's a bit more scenic. Giving you cool views and angles of the park without the neck jerks, allowing you to smoothly take it in. However, I love the part at 13:15, where it almost touches the water. And a nice aerial overview of those sitting areas on the left. I also admire the view at 12:39. That's gotta be one of the tallest views in Kennywood-after marveling at the view from the top of the Phantom, this is a cool new perspective. 12:47 had a nice straight soaring motion that looked satisfying. I look forward to trying the Steel Curtain at least once in my lifetime.

    The worst part about the Phantom's Revenge is that it's too short lol. Will forever be my favorite amusement park ride of all time. Probably based on nostalgia alone. There's something ethereal reminiscing about a warm summer day in my childhood, standing in line, looking to my right and seeing the glorious river and mills. Then seeing everything from far above at the coaster's peak. Riding so close to The Turtle ride-which I once rode before I was tall enough to ride the Phantom, and always longingly gazed at from below. The parts dipping under the other roller coaster, or the loop at the end surrounded by greenery, are forever engrained in my memory. I think I came here on an uncrowded weekday once, and was able to ride the Phantom over and over again until the park closed. I haven't been to Kennywood since 2016 but I've thought about it every summer since.

This is the equivalent of an older person calling the Thunderbolt; "The Pippin"! 😳

    The Thunderbolt didn't exist until at least the `60's. Before that, it was a completely different coaster called, The Pippin. It was the only coaster to start on level ground and then go DOWN instead of up.
    Unless they've changed it, that's not how The Thunderbolt starts! The first dip is IMMEDIATELY after the ride starts! There's no lead-up to it!
