- If you've been watching this channel for a while, you've probably come across some phrases or words that you continue to hear pop up. Some of it may sound confusing- but not anymore! Taylor and Alec are here to discuss some of the lingo they use in their daily lives that originated from the theme park industry. This is by no means all of the phrases used, as that will require another video!

I was getting off Steel Vengeance and somebody walking behind me said "Yeah, that's definitely the best one since The Millennium." And then the other person said "well.... I don't know, The Keyhole One was pretty cool."

There was this one time a GP came up to me and said the reason why you get airtime is because they press the "brakes" on the hills.
Epic Puppets Wow 😂😂
And the brakes are invisible😂👍.

My favorite enthusiast slang is weenie, for sure. Though I think you should NOT use this one outside of theme park contexts...
Silv what is a weenie haha
We could tell it was your favorite lol
Coaster Studios the big centerpiece in the center of a park. A few examples are Magic Kingdoms castle, Wonder Mountain at Canada’s Wonderland, The Tree in Animal Kingdom, or Spaceship Earth At EPCOT.
@@RainTube A weenie can draw you toward a certain section of a park, too - Space Mountain is Tomorrowland's weenie, Big Thunder Mountain's mountain is Frontierland's weenie. But yeah, it's essentially any big structure that helps guests orientate themselves.
So is the Eiffel Tower at KI and KD a weenie?
I’ve got a LROTSON

is that during holiday in the park?
Chase yup
When is that😰😨😰😨😰I’m scared that I might not get a ride on it
My parents think the term GP is an insult, and that’s why I’m not as harsh and rude to the GP as most thoosies are.
But see GP CAN be used as an insult in regards to people that don't know restraint on rides, know where anything in the park is, etc.
It's a loving insult lol
Michael King Hmm... I can see that. I would just kindly correct them, though.
Felice Graziano Yes
Oh it’s you
Very unique & creative video, no sarcasm I swear Taylor. Never seen anyone make this kind of video on UA-cam yet & this is very informative, love it!

11:11 I use the term jumpscare. Never heard of popscare, but now I know what it means I guess. 👌
This would be a really good series, like an enthusiast dictionary
Dude, I just checked and I have been subscribed to you for over 4 years!! I remember when I subbed and I cant believe it's already been that long. Also, thank you for sharing that borderline crazy enthusiasm towards roller coasters lol I hope to meet you one day, but until then keep busting out that amazing content!!

Next video, you should do more vocabulary but mainly focused on the coasters. Like explain or show pictures of what’s a double helix, an inversion, outward banked turn, lift hill, mid course brake run etc
Those are more technical terms. This is not intended to be a technical video, and focus less on the specifics of roller coaster elements and more the phrases you might hear as an enthusiast
Welcome to vocabulary with Coaster Studios
Even tho I been a enthusiast for 6 years and I still watched this what am I doing

Front row, lights, it was great. Also got TWTTMAMF - the whole train to myself and my friend
I went to a jazz camp and one of the teachers was a chair enthusiast. He wrote an entire piece featuring multiple movements, about chairs. He called it the chair suite. When he and his combo performed it in front of us, during the second movement, there was a pause, and in that pause, someone in the audience just says “chair”. Nothing more, nothing less. Everyone laughed.
Cool video though!
Underrated comment of the night.
We apply the wait times to any queue we see. For example at the airport 0-10 minute not too bad. A traffic jam, damn that’s 30-40 minutes. Through puts is another jargon we use a lot
Richard Matthews those are good ones!
anybody else's mind would melt if Taylor and ElToroRyan did meetup?
My favorite slang word is stapled I use it all the time
When that happens I say:
#SEETDOWN
The SI prefixes go kilo, mega, giga... so I kept getting confused whether a coaster was a mega coaster or a hyper coaster

this is actually pretty helpful, i discovered what ert mean like last week and i always thought it was some sort of typo haha
Awesome! I like your haircut! This will be very helpful when I go to Magic Mountain in a week. I’m a fairly new enthusiast, became one in February. Thanks for this vid!
J Terry TV same! I became one in January
Don’t worry I have been an enthusiast for as long as I can remember I don’t use most of these
I became one like 2 months ago because I rode Incredicoaster a few months ago and wanted to watch POVs because I was thinking about it and really wanted to ride it agein but couldn't since I live 13 hours away and somehow I stumbled onto Coaster Studios
DFW Source Wow! Same!
Unabashedlyanne Nice. I discovered Coaster Studios because their Rip Ride Rockit parody popped up in my Recommendations. If that hadn’t popped up, I would have never become an enthusiast!
Lrotot. Last ride of the night on Torro. Also I am glad you made that point about GP. For my enthusiast friend and I aGP is someone who either doesn’t follow or is uninformed about roller coasters and their minutia. But I also know some GP that have ridden a lot of coasters but don’t know The terminology but know that they are safe. For me my friends and I will sometimes gently tease the GP but never to their faces. We’re never flat out rude or harsh to them because you don’t have to be in enthusiast to be cool. We’ve all been there. I was technically a GP until part of the way through this year. Though I have to say it is a little fun scaring them on rides you know they’ll find scary like Kah or Torro. But my sister and other good friend are GP so I try to be nice for their sake. I’m always up for educating people who want to know more about coasters. I’ve never heard the term thusies.
I guess I'm halfway between GP and enthusiast, I love learning about roller coasters and I love riding them, but every time I look at a roller coaster I get like super nervous about riding it even though I know I'm safe and that I'll likely enjoy it. Before getting on a coaster I've never ridden before I usually do a couple deep breathing excercises to lower my pulse and that helps.
Unabashedlyanne there’s no shame in that. I get nervous too. I almost chickened out of kah when I rode it in May. My sister didn’t do it because she claims she was recovering from Torro.
what the kings dominion parking lot
LMAO
Speaking of creds, I don't count rides like Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts and Journey to Atlantis (Orlando) as credits, because both rides only have one drop/turn. Gringotts is a dark ride that uses coaster track and trains to do what it needs to do and Atlantis is a water ride with one coaster element (the main drop doesn't count).
My favorite "slang" isn't really slang because it's a pretty solid term, and probably a lot of you have heard it before. "Weenie." It sounds like weenus, which is the extra skin on the outside of your elbow, but it's actually a real term used in theme parks and architecture. As far as I know, it was developed by Walt Disney as he wanted the Imagineers (the creative force behind the Disney parks) to create certain "visual magnets" to guide guests from one area to another. Weenies in Disney parks include Cinderella's Castle, Space Mountain, the fake Mount Everest for Expedition Everest, etc. Pretty much every park has a weenie too, for example, I would say The New Revolution is a weenie at Six Flags Magic Mountain because it's one of the first rides you see, and it's aesthetic loop really makes you wanna go over and ride it. So like all the other terms in the video, "weenie" can be used outside of parks. In architecture, it might be a main centerpiece in a plaza, or a really intricate design element on a building. And it can be really anything that grabs the attention of a lot of people, such as a big neon sign for a restaurant. So next time something gets yours and your friends' attention, be sure to call said thing a weenie. What the weenie!?
When I went to Kings Dominion, I had FROTDOA. Meaning I had the first ride of the day on Anaconda
Hyper snoozefest
Wonderful video Taylor. Some of those I heard. I loved how you shared some of your personal terms. On the subject of bathroom. When I am at a park and I need to use the bathroom as a NASCAR racing fan I say "Hang on guys I have to make a pit stop." "Pit stop" is my slang term when I'm at a park when nature calls.

Would I call myself an enthusiast if I know everything about coasters, but haven't ridden many?
Yeah! If you have a passion for roller coasters and like researching them, you are an enthusiast, no matter how many coasters you’ve ridden! 😁
@@jtbackup4553 Cool!
You only need to be into roller coasters to be an enthusiast, don't let anyone gatekeep because you don't have SoB, Moonsault Scramble, Hypersonic XLC, Dragon Challenge, Eagle's Fortress and 500 kiddie coasters as credits

I have always loved coasters since I was a kid. This summer I drove to CP by myself for a week.
It only made since to buy a platinum pass. I made the trip because I really wanted to ride TTD at least once in my life.
I had never heard of SteVe before the trip, only saw a show on the Travel channel a few years ago about CP.
I drove 12 hours in that first day and got the the park around 5PM and TTD had been down for the day. I rode a few other rides. The next morning I was waiting with the early entry people and they told me they were all running to SteVe first thing. I asked about it and told them I don't really like wooden coasters. They told me to just ride it. I jogged down and go on it about 4th or 5th train and I was just WOW!!!!!! I only rode it twice each day because of the long lines, once first thing and once in the evening. Got 10 rides on SteVe that week. I did ride TTD 10 times in one day and have 21 rides total on it. Also did 5 rides on Milly in one hour that week at early entry. Any way my week was up and I went home. Labor day weekend was coming up and I had made some plans to do some stuff when It hit me I would take one day off at work and have 5 days in a row off. I dropped my plans and drove back up to CP. I really missed riding SteVe!!!! I already had the platinum so why not. I got 11 more rides on SteVe in those 5 days, hardly riding anything else. The wait for SteVe is worth it!!
Anyway the last regular day of the season at CP, Septemper 2, 2019 I was the very first rider of the day on SteVe. Rode very back, left seat. I got another ride in midday and was planning on 2 more before the park closed. But line for SteVe just kept getting longer and I knew I was only going to get one more in, not two. I talked to the staff at the front of SteVe and they told me that the chain goes up at 10 minutes after park closing time. So I crossed the chain 9 minutes after and was the last rider of the day also.
I didn't know that this was a thing, but I guess it is. Being first and last of the day. So I guess I'm not GP. Lol!
I've always thought of the technical definition of general public is basically "customer of park (not employee)." But as an enthusiast, it's a useful short term for non-enthusiasts. Some people are a bit elitist and get hung up on the technical definition. It's not meant to be a harmful or mindlessly snobby term, though it can be used that way.

LROT, lol. People have been trying to get as many rides in before they close the queue / last lap since the beginning of coasters. Sometimes you end up on the last, sometimes you miss the last (on occasion you get the 'one more ride'). Today's generation has to have slang and acronyms for everything and think they invented everything... I was 'LROT' (well, more laps > just the last ride) decades ago, all 'enthusiasts' were!
Why do I feel like I just watched an 8th grade presentation
