Coastin' with Dan

On June 27th, I visited Knott's Berry Farm, in Buena Park, California. This park completely bypassed my expectations. I knew going in that the park had a great lineup of coaster, but I did not expect it to become one of my all time favorite parks! Let's get on to the rides! Silver Bullet is the parks B&M Inverted Coaster. I've heard a lot about this coaster being "boring" and "forceless", so I went in with low expectations. Instead, I absolutely loved this coaster! The inversions were a ton of fun, and even provided some great hang time, the ride itself was smooth, and the interaction with the water below was a really cool addition to the coaster. I do have to say, though,  the coaster really does not fit in great with its surrounding, and its all red lift hill looks odd.  ---- GhostRider is the parks wooden coaster, which was recently refurbished by Great Coasters International(GCI).

Six Flags New England has announced its brand new addition for the 2019 season, CYBORG Cyber Spin, a Chance Rides Freestyle  My Thoughts I am ecstatic for this addition. Flat rides are always great for a park, and the fact that this will be inside will bring the experience to the next level. For the past few seasons, the Hall of Justice has looked run down, and its hours have constantly been shortened, so seeing a new addition in that building will definitely improve the guest experience. It is very similar to the current Kryptonite Kollider ride, so I would not be surprised if that was in its way out soon.
