[coastermatt]

I'm Matt, and I live 20 minutes away from Disneyland and 30 from Knott's Berry Farm. I'm 14 and LOVE SFMM, it's not only my favorite park, but its also my favorite place in the world, however, Im the only one who thinks that in my family and live and hour and 15 minutes away from the park, so I don't go often...

[3xinvert]

Bienvenue, man.

(throwing a little french in there...spiche it up.)

[Ultimate Coaster]

I'm Ultimate Coaster.

I'm from Coaster Force, and I joined up here on recommendation from Mike T. If any of you have ever visited CF, you must've seen at least one of my posts.

Call me UC. I look forward to posting with you all.

[Steve K]

Welcome to the forums UC! We're glad to have you in the community. Welcome to our family! Should you have any questions, comments, suggestions, etc, let us know! :)

[JonJon86]

Well I re-joined a bit ago, but I don't think I have ever introduced myself.

My name is Jon, I'm 21 and currently live in West Covina, CA but will be moving back to Valencia, CA in the next couple weeks.

My hobbies include off roading in my lifted 07' Dodge Ram 2500 4X4, watching movies, skateboarding, hanging out with friends. I dont work, but make an income.

Deja Vu is my favorite coaster. Will always be. I loved operating it, thinking about going back (3rd time back to the mountain if I do) and working there.

Well I guess thats it.

[Jumpman23]

Im someone who Justin gillispie cant find.

[SnooSnoo]

Your a large man Jump.. ;)

[Tom]

Snoo don't hate on the big guys lol. What is your bench press jump?

[Jumpman23]

Haha Justin still nothing.

[Michael]

^ And you're 16? :ohmy: Jeez...

[Tom]

I was not gonna say steroids...but wow that is INSANE!!!!

[Jumpman23]

Sorry cant show everybody.

[Tom]

I tore a disk in my back doing squats, I was 200 doing 275 and it was just a mess. Sprained knee, torn disk, ended my promising career at 15. Just be careful. Don't do it the wrong way, I figure you are doing it correctly squating that much but still. It's dangerous.

[Michael]

^ You weighed 200 lbs when you were 15? Good god what are parents feeding kids these days! :stick_tongue:

[Jumpman23]

To bad so sad.

[Tom]

^^I was a center. I was 6'1" at the time too. I have always been a big guy so it doesn't bother me.
^I was cheapd by a teammate my freshmen year, he ended up getting starting spot because of it. Missed 3 weeks with partial tear in knee. Basically my knees are shot and so is my back and I am only 19. Ya squats are basically the most dangerous thing in the weight room.

[Jumpman23]

Haha Mitchell karane, Jacob Berry, Gille.

[Tom]

What position are you, d-line?

[Jumpman23]

Again sucks for you.

[rcwhiz]

All I have to say is that you Jump lift almost three times more then what I bench. Lol. Shows how weak I am.

[JonJon86]

Im not trying to be rude here, but, exactly what rollercoaster do you fit on "comfortably?"

[Tom]

I played Defensive End as well, but they wouldn't let me play really since we had no backup center and my knee was already a risk as a freshmen. What style of offense does your team run?

[Jumpman23]

Nothing here, keep trying though be my guest.

[tacoking]

So chances are some of you remember me from other places...if so, move on.

If not, I am taco (real name = not important), from Merritt Island, Fl. That's about 40 minutes east of Orlando, so you know what parks are near me. I visit the Universal parks the most, though. Favorite Bands: Metallica, Static-X, Blue October, Flogging Molly, and Paramore. Favorite Movies: Saving Private Ryan, Schindler's List, Gladiator, Return of the King, and Munich. Favorite TV Shows: Heroes, Mythbusters, Robot Chicken, and Futurama. Favorite Video Games: Call of Duty, Call of Duty: United Offensive, KOTOR, and Perfect Dark. Favorite coasters: Revenge of the Mummy (USO), Montu, Incredible Hulk, Top Gu...erm, Afterburn, and Millennium Force.

A couple more notes, Wii = 360 > PS3. Go Cubs. Go Dale Jr. I think that's enough boredom for you cats.

[Tom]

TACO IS BACK!!! Nice to see you again!!

[Jake]

It's definitely good to see you back again Taco!

[tacoking]

Haha, I am not going to lie...you guys remember me, but I just don't remember you. :)

[SnooSnoo]

^^ I pretty much fit on anything comfortably except stand-ups and Slc's, also I cant even ride any Vekomas or arrows at all.

I wouldn't go to Cedar Point if I were you.. ;)

[Jumpman23]

Nothing here!

[Brandon728]

Hello everybody. I signed up for rcpro a couple months ago, and I've been on and off the site for a while. I haven't really met anyone personally, so I thought I'd tell about myself. My name is Brandon. My home park is KD. If you live in the northern virginia area, contact me. I could use someone to debate about the amuesement industry. Also, anyone else on here who is open to new people, contact me. I hope to see everyone in the forums.

[p0tat0]

If anybody doesn't already know who I am... then you must be living under a rock....

Naw just kidding....seriously though, I'm an engineering student at Cal Poly SLO majoring in mechanical engineering. Hopefully that will allow me to design roller coasters in the future. If not, I'll be happy designing anything, even if its car cup holders (I sure hope I don't end up doing that)

When I'm not in San Luis Obispo, I'm back in my hometown of the LBC!

heres me at my dorm :)

http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w234/Millennium-Mike/IMG_2738.jpg

I'll re-introduce myself, it's been a while and I've changed... Notice my shirt too...


I joined RcPro in 2005, as Millennium-Mike (aptly named after my former favorite coaster). I was also known as Intamin-Mike for a while as well. But I preffer to be known as Mike, or Michael :)

Although I'm not a high ranking member among coaster counters or park totals, I'm still pretty into the roller coaster community. I'm an avid No Limits user, with more than three years of experience.

I'm currently a Senior in High School, I live a little south of Indianapolis. Starting in Fall, I'm attending Ivy Tech for a semester and transfering to IUPUI (Indiana University Purdue University) in Indianapolis. I'm into graphic design, drawing, painting, ink, ect. I'm also an avid fan and artist of automotive design.

AIM me up if you want to know me more I guess :cool1:

[Whisper]

Well, I guess I better introduce my self here, since I will be staying a while. I'm Whisper, also known as Video_Kid, Behemoth08, and adamcolvin. My real name is Adam Colvin. I'm 6'4" 215lbs, and is 17, when May 30 hits. I live in London, Ontario, Canada. My closest park is Canada's Wonderland. I love biking, aviation, roller coasters, and anything else exciting. I have 4 pets; 1 dog (Victoria [8 years]), 2 cats (Nicholas, Nikita [both 1 year]), and 1 hamster (Toby [5 weeks]). I am interested into photography (runs in the family) and will hopefully be seeing the rest of you at a variety of Amusement Parks in the future.:scared:

Woot!

[Rocket]

Some of you probably know me, my account got deleted I guess. It's silverbullet, and I'm back! Looking forward later to some Photo Contests and showing off some new works.

[Jake]

The forums were reset last October, so everyone had to re-register.

[Rocket]

Nice to meet you too...

[coastermatt]

He never said anything rude or offensive, he was just giving you a statement...

[Jake]

Yeah, I usually save my rude and obnoxious self for the other forums :).

Welcome to the forums.

[coastermatt]

Or he saves it for me ;)

[p0tat0]

It's because he loves you <3

[coastermatt]

Score!!!11 :d

[TogoFan]

I am Anonymous, other channers and I raid chatrooms and troll forums.


But not this forum, since I actually am a roller coaster enthusiast, I will stay here. Anyway, I love theme parks, especially the historic ones.

[Maxamillious]

Welcome to the Forums. We have people here that are interested in just about all the same things that you are. Even roller coasters. ;)

I'm sure you'll fit right in and feel at home. :)

[Jake]

Or you will be terribly offended and leave in a huff.

But lets all hope it's what Max said ;).

Oh, and welcome to the forums.

[R.C.]

And Jake will probably be the one to offend you...... Just kidding! It will probably be me.

By the way, you've been to better parks then I've been to. Welcome to the forums!

[Jake]

And Jake will probably be the one to offend you......

Nobody asked you.

But you're probably right. :p

[Steve K]

Welcome to the forums Parker! Like Max said, there are many members here that share your interests. For instance, Justin (sirloin) and myself are avid aviation enthusiasts. I must ask you this though...airbus or boeing (via PM)? :)

[Patrick]

Hey, I'm Patrick, I'm 14 and I live in Leicestershire, England. I'm into coasters (obviously as I'm on this site) and music mainly.

[RollermanDan]

Welcome! Been to any parks recently?

[Patrick]

No lol, my last park was in september 2007. Waiting to go to Alton Towers when the weather clears up.

[yDp]

Hello all, name's Mario. You might remember me as b52fdb from the old pages.

[mayoki]

Hey, I don't think I've EVER introduced myself, but I'm Conner, AKA mayoki. I've been with RCPro since summer '05, and it's my favorite site so far. What really makes me come back to RCPro is all of the features, and how everyone pretty much knows each other, even though I don't post much. My other hobbies are airsoft, hunting, music, SNOWBOARDING (sucks cause I'm in FL), and girls.

-Conner (mayoki)

BTW, I really think the gaming section needs to be brought back, that's why I joined the site originally. Just for those little projects that you don't think really need a whole thread for.

That's me snowboarding... VOLCOM AND FUNNY HATS FTW!!!!
(just to show that I'm not some fat kid who eats pizza all day and lives in a cage) [No offense!]
BTW steve... I'll be flying a c172 next year.

[EBL]

I think my screen name is familiar to some of you, as I've been lurking in Internet coaster forums for almost ten years. Goose's Realm of Insanity is where I got my start, and I've shown up on Ultimate Rollercoaster, a little on CoasterBuzz, but mostly on Westcoaster (where I'm a moderator) and Theme Park Review.

So there ya go.

Eric

[p0tat0]

EBL good to see you around. When did you become a mod on westcoaster? Last time I remember you weren't then again it's been awhile since I was there.

[Jake]

Good to see you, EBL. I've seen you post over at Theme Park Review before, and look forward to you posting here :).

[Miller Lite]

I'm Adam. I've been a fan of this site for the last 3-4 years i'd say. I just recently started posting however. I'm mainly on TPR where I'm known as thrillgeek. Well there you go IM me on aim or visit my myspace or facebook if your interested. You guys rock!!

[Steve K]

Welcome EBL and Adam! Glad to have you guys in the community! If you guys need anything, feel free to let me know!

[yomama482]

Hey, I'm Tommy. Not a whole lot to say about myself, I'm pretty much a typical California kid. My favorite TV show is Big Love, my favorite movie is Crash, my favorite singers are Chad Sugg (Backseat Goodbye) and Kimya Dawson (The Moldy Peaches), my favorite food is a Double-Double from In 'N' Out, my favorite store is Nordstrom. I like to run, and I absolutely hate green beans. That's about it. I'm lookin' foreward to getting to know you all.

[Jake]

In-N-Out is Godlike. Just got back from dinner there.. mm.. Sorry, anyway.. Welcome to the forums!

My true home park is Castle Amusement Park, but I go to KBF and SFMM more. My favorite roller coaster is Tatsu and me least favorite is Colossus. Next year I am planning on traveling to Ohio and going to Cedar Point and Kings Island to ride DIAMONDBACK! Well thats me.

[John]

An introduction can't hurt.

My name is Jon (or Jonathan), and I joined RCPro around the end of 2004? I think I was searching for Silver Bullet info or something along those lines.

I used to be the number 1 poster here back in the day and used to also moderate the forums. :cool:

I am currently 18 and I live in So Cal so I have some great coaster experience because of our theme parks. I recently got back into roller coasters so I occasionally come back here to post and it's nice to see some old faces posting here still after all these years.

I was 14 when I joined this site, and it's amazing to see how the community and the website itself has grown up so much.

[Thrill Reconnoiter]

W/B John.

And welcome everyone else!

[tycooner55]

Hi, I'm Chris. I'm 17 and obviously a fan of coasters and the amusement industry. I've been to many parks and my coaster count is 63 (not too bad for a 17 yr. old). I joined about a year ago. There was something that drew me to this site but I'm forget what. Overall I'm not a heavy poster (unless it's a topic I'm really interested in) otherwise I usually end up just reading the threads. I have enjoyed my time here in the very friendly and impressively spam-free discussions here. Woohoo!

<--- Contacts if you're interested

I'm a member of my home park's forum, Kennywood Connection, and follow most of the park details, so if anyone has any questions about KP, feel free to ask. I used to be big at "The Point Online", but since I haven't been to CP in going on 3 years I've drifted away from that forum. Still, RCPro is the place I get my info in general.

I am aware that many of the members know each other here, so sometimes that makes it a little more challenging for me as somewhat of an outsider or unknown. It's hard for me to travel and meet with the group cross-country so hey, if anyone's ever in town I' be glad to meet up and give them a tour of the city and KP. :D

[Leigh]

Hi! I'm Leigh! I am new to this site, though I have always known about it.

If anyones on Coasterforce or any of the UK forums, then you would know me as A-Kid. CC is 51. Favourite parks are Alton towers, Cedar Point & Thorpe. Favourite rides are Mille Force, Maverick & Nemesis.

[rollercoasterfreak91]

Oh, a Heroes fan...and a Maverick fan...from England...all rolled into one. Welcome to RCPro!

Hey Leigh, welcome to the forums! :)

Welcome to the RCPro Community Leigh! If there's anything that you need, feel free to ask one of our staff members and we'll be more than happy to assist. Make yourself at home! :)

[The_Candy_Man]

Hi im Isaiah, my friends usually call me The Candyman, Izzy, Uncle Tripp, or Tripp...or anything else tht they can think of as a nickname. I have been a member of this site since '05. I was SixFlagsJunkie or something like tht. However, after i took an extreme intrest in cars and racing, sadly i lost my enthusiasm for coasters. Ive since learned so much about cars and racing that im back to coasters and im gonna stick with being a coaster enthusiast for good this time. Anyway, I was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA but I currently reside in Tempe, AZ, ill be returning to LA quite soon though. In about a year ill be moving to London, England so wish me luck. If anyone wants to know more about me or be friends, message me or add me on Myspace. www.myspace.com/uncle_tripp (http://www.myspace.com/uncle_tripp) or display name Uncle Tripp.

[Steve K]

Hey bro, welcome back to the Community! Glad to see you've regained an interest in this great obsession! And if you ever want to hang out, hit up CNC or something while you're still in the Phoenix area, give me a buzz. (anyone who happens to be in the area, just give me a call! 480-244-5156)

[The_Candy_Man]

thanks man, i would love to hang out sometime.

[Brandon]

I've got time, so I thought I may re-introduce myself, considering I havent posted in this thread since the forums got relaunched last year.


Hey guys, I'm Brandon. I'm 16 years old, turning 17 this May. I've been with RCPro since 2006, and have been with it ever since. I used to live in Southern California until around this time last year. Then I moved to Post Falls, Idaho. For those of you who dont know me, if you do get to talking with me, you will find that I am a pretty relaxed person, and easy to get along with.

I am a ride operator at Silverwood Theme Park, and I love my job there. It is very fun, and very rewarding. If you happen to ever be at the park when it is open, look for me and feel free to say hi!

One thing you will notice about me is that I post news a lot here at the site. I always keep the homepage, as well as the forums updated with news. It's something I like to do, in fact journalism is a career I have kept my eye on for some time.

If you want to learn a bit more about me, you can add me as a friend on MySpace! :)

[TheRiddler3521]

I've been off the site for a bit but I decided to go on more often and I just want to re-introduce myself.

Hey everybody, I'm Noel or known as TheRiddler3521. Currently I'm 16 years old, but I'll be turning 17 next year on August. I first joined the site around 05' or 06' can't really remember. I live out in Lakeview Terrace, California. I got interested in coasters back when I was about 10, when I rode Ghostrider in KBF after that I couldn't get enough. Mainly all my themepark trips are usually at SFMM, KBF, or DLR. I haven't been out of state for some coaster riding. My other interests are cars, graphics, and tech stuff. Other from that if anyone wants to just talk I'm on MySpace and heres the link:

[DR27]

Welcome to the site, Riddler. (even though that is a very painful ride :p)

[Michael]

Interesting, I've always heard that Riddler is a very tolerable ride. That would make Mantis death on rails then :p

[rollercoasterfreak91]

Yeah, the Riddler is really not that bad. DR27, did you happen to ride Psyclone? :D Welcome to the site, Riddler.

[DR27]

Yeah, the Riddler is really not that bad. DR27, did you happen to ride Psyclone? :D Welcome to the site, Riddler.

Yes, even more than Riddler. :p Really it's the lower portion of your body that gets the pain on Riddler. Although, I have not ridden it in 2-3 years, so bleh.

Welcome again!

[Dan]

Interesting, I've always heard that Riddler is a very tolerable ride. That would make Mantis death on rails then :pIt's definitely more comfortable than Mantis, but I wouldn't call it a walk in the park.

I didn't have a huge problem with Mantis personally, but to each his own.

[TheRiddler3521]

Yeah it can be a pain often times but mainly I have fun on the ride. I usually do pretty dumb stuff meanwhile riding.

great to meet you! :D

[Steve K]

Glad to see you around Adam, it's nice to see some of you TTF'rs coming over to RCPro. Maybe we can start seeing some of ours become active on TTF as well as that will create a tighter bond than we already have between RCPro and TTF.

[Steve K]

Hey guys, for all the new members that joined recently, welcome to the Community! :)

I figured I'd introduce myself again for those that don't know me. My name is Steve Kalkofen, owner and webmaster of RCPro. I've been with the site since April 2004 after previously being a part of SixFlagsNews.com before that was shut down. When that happened, I became an active member here and within weeks joined the moderation team and eventually took over the site from Brandon a couple years ago.

Outside of the site I'm in the U.S. Air Force stationed at Spangdahlem AB, Germany for the past couple years. Within the Air Force I'm a Weapons Director; a controller who directs military aircraft in the skies over Afghanistan/Iraq where to fly and how to get to their targets. Kind of a ground based equivalent of the AWACS if anyone knows what that is.

Born and raised in Germany, I spent most of my time travelling the world, mostly the U.S. and Europe, however have made a few trips to the far east as well with family in the past. I've been lucky enough to visit a vast amount of parks within the U.S. and Europe, and I do my best to visit several throughout the year, whenever work doesn't get too hectic...lol.

Once again, I just wanted to re-introduce myself to some of our newer Community Members and would like to welcome you. I hope you enjoy the Community, get to know others, talk about the parks and attractions we all love and hate, and help make this site's member base a closer knit Community. If there's anything I can do to make your visit to RCPro more enjoyable, please feel free to let me know! :)

[CoasterRollin']

Hey everyone,

My name is Nick and I've actually been surfing RCPro for awhile, but just recently I started browsing the forums and got interested in the community. I'm 18 and I will be attending the University of Maryland this fall. My major is mechanical engineering.

Just a quick overview of me outside of the rollercoaster world: I love music and I play drums (drumset, marching, and concert percussion), I run because it's fun :P , and I enjoy composing music, drawing, and writing.

Other than that, my life is rollercoasters. I have my own personal website at http://www.freewebs.com/coastercenter where you can find out about that so I don't waste space here. The site is still in the construction phase and a little slow moving, but I'm getting stuff done.

I look foward to getting involved here at RCPro!

[Steve K]

Welcome to the Community Nick! Glad to see you finally joined in here! :) If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, feel free to let us know!

[The Storm Runner]

Hooray for another Nick on the forums!

Hey guys, I'm new here. I bought RCT3 Platinum the other day and immediately fell in love with it. I've done a little research on youtube to see what others have done and my goodness, some of you are just AMAAAAAZING at this game. You turn a video game into ART!!
Hopefully one day I can get as good. I'm really into making water parks and indoor/outdoor pools. I love the water, what can I say? :)

[Steve K]

Welcome to the Community n1, glad to have you here! :) There are several great RCT3 players around the Community, glad to have another. Welcome!

Hi everyone!


Just checking out the forums and reading through them.

My name is Daniel and I am a fan of really any park in the central Florida area.

As a little added bonus, I have started up and am operating Amusement Radio, which is "the" place to get all of the current industry news (in audio form).


Ok, enough advertising, and back to reading the forums....

(btw, if you have a trip review you want to share with the world, Amusement Radio would like to hear from you!)

Hey Guys

I am Robert Cory Molloy from Medford, NJ, which my home park is infact, Six Flags Great Adventure. I am a Admin over at Great Adventure Online as well (Cory to be Exact) and I feel like there are no community tie-in's so I am doing that now. I have personally loved Roller Coaster Pro from the first time I visited the site. Just a quality coaster site that has the industry wrapped around "almost" completely. I have considered becoming a Regional Rep for this site. In the near future if Steve would allow it, I will become one. For now though, I will provide you most information for the East Coast when necessary; since this community lacks that area a lot...no offense guys haha.

Well I'll see you all on the forums.

I decided to show my face as well haha.

Hello, I'm really Marcus. Huge Roller Coaster fan whom is also part of another forum, Ataricommunity.com. Just like Krosscoasters (http://www.rcprocommunity.com/member.php?u=561) said, I also stumbled across this and wanted to join. Also you may have noticed, whenever I mention someone's username, I'll make it a link to they're homepage on this Forum.

[SnooSnoo]

^Well hello. Gotta love the Atari community. :)

[Ceiling Kat]

Hi all. What can I say.. love theme parks, will travel!

After having had a season pass at Six Flags Magic Mountain growing up, it just seems like other little parks since I moved don't compare. Found this side after reading some wikipedia articles on history of some of the SFMM rides. I haven't been there since 1996, so anxious to ride there in 1-2 months while visiting friends in the area.

Rode the Corkscrew rollercoaster at Knott's Berry Farm in California about 20 years ago, and approx. 10 years later rode it again after a smaller theme park in Idaho bought and installed it.

Haven't found a ride that scared me yet - I don't think one will ever exist.

There's also cute game on facebook I like called Roller Coaster Kingdom that I started to play last month.

So... hello everyone.

[thatdancingbear]

Hello Ceiling Kat!

A lot has changed at SFMM since 1996... Your going to have a great time going back with all the new coasters installed since then!

You should get the matching avatar up there with your username also, lol. :)

Looking forward to seeing you around the forums! :D

- Billy

[Ceiling Kat]

How's this for the avatar? :)

SFMM has so many memories.. like when Viper and Batman were the latest things! X2, Tatsu and some of these others I've seen practically make me want to drool when I see pics and vids of them. Can't wait til I actually ride 'em!

[Brandon]

Spokane, eh? Very awesome! Finally I'm not alone! With the exception of Josh (supremescreamer for those of you who've been here for ages), I've really been the only person on RCPro in the Northwest. Welcome to RCPro, Ceiling Kat, hope to see you around here regularly!

[Brett-Jones]

Hi

im new and thought id introduce myself!

my names Brett and i live in north wales! most of my skills are involved in artistic or design work, and my dream job is to be a rollercoaster designer (not some fanboy dream im being serios) i like to think im pretty talented at nolimits and RCT3 but dont play on RCT as it isnt realistic enough for me. alton towers is my fave park and nemesis is by far my fave ride!

i am a super mod on www.rollercoastermad.com and have been since it started!
thats about it for me i think!

thanks, Brett!

[Luxornv]

I don't think I've posted in this thread before, so I'll post something about myself.

I'm Chris and I've been an enthusiast for about 3 years. I've been around here since one of the older versions of these forums, and I mainly lurk instead of posting. My home park is SFGAm. I grew up in the Chicago suburbs and now I attend a college in downtown Milwaukee. I'm currently majoring in mechanical engineering, and I'm in too deep now to change that. I'm also a huge drag racing fan and my favorite driver is John Force. I'm also a hockey and Blackhawks fan.

[mitchellPAUL]

I just went through, and saw I haven't posted here as well.

Hi all, My name is Mitch, as you can see from the name. I'm 19, and currently reside in good ol' Omaha, Ne. It's a grand ol' town, one of the best in the country. We've got the most restaurants per capita, and the most STD's in one county, woohoo. Anyhoozer, I'm like everyone else, I love roller coasters, have since I was about 11 or 12. I enjoy the typical hanging out with friends, spending time with my family, the occasionally party here and there, other than that, I'm your typical teenager.

I joined RcPro back in, '05, '04, something like that. I was a really active member way back when, but have sort of sat back and haven't posted the way I used to. My home parks are Adventureland & Worlds of Fun, which get boring after so many trips. I've been fortunate enough to visit a few great parks, including: Six Flags Great America, Six Flags over Texas, Busch Gardens Tampa, & more recently, Hershey Park & Kings Dominion.

I don't think my love for coasters will ever die, I'm a hardcore fan. My dream, like anyone else, is to go to Cedar Point. There was a close call this past summer but plans fell through. Hopefully sometime in the near future I'll be able to spend a few days there and finally experience some top-notch coasters.

Well that's my intro, hope you enjoyed.

[Steve K]

Barto,

Welcome to the Community! :) What route do you plan on going for college? We've had a few people from CoasterForce around the Community, and we're glad to see a few more. Make yourself comfortable, and I look forward to viewing your Trip Reports! :)

[monkeyonatable]

Thanks! One of the few forums that actually gave me a warm welcome. I'm going to go and double major in both Mechanical and Civil engineering at Tennessee Tech or UTC. I love taking pictures when I go to theme parks, and I love to do Trip Reports. As you can tell from my signature, I'm going to have a few trip reports from June 2010.

[rollercoasterfreak91]

Hey guys! I've been away for a while now...just stopped by to check in...I'd like to stick around, but I realized I know I'll forget about it unless I can somehow get email or RSS feed alerts when the forums are updated. Any way to do that?

Also, great new layout. Love it!

Edit: Never mind, figured it out...I'm back! :D

(As a sidenote, the RSS feed for the NCR forum doesn't work.)

Hello there, I'm the Coasterjunkie (aka Woodencoasterfan on YouTube) I live in Orlando and I've been a member of the Florida Coasterclub since 2000. I've ridden approximately 136 different coasters at parks across the US. I'm also a long haul truck driver which eliminates having to pay to travel to all those out of state parks.

I did meet one of you guys at SWO during Manta's opening day media event.

[Lostboyfan]

Hello I'm Lostboyfan. But you may call me Robby too if you want.

Lets see where to start. Well for one I have always loved riding roller coasters since I was a kid and still do today. I am big into filming at Disney theme parks (I have been doing it since 2007). I like to video edit and film roller coasters too. I run two of own websites too so have a lot of experience with them. You can pm me if you want to see them.

Hope to make some new friends on here too.

Hello everyone! I'm new here-obviously! I live in Arizona, a terrible state for a coaster enthusiast! My favorite theme park is Six Flags Magic Mountain and my favorite roller coaster is Tatsu.

[Steve K]

Welcome to the Community Montagna! :)

I've been in Arizona for quite a while myself TDY and I have to agree, there's not really much for us coaster enthusiasts, although Desert Storm and Patriot aren't TOO bad. Not to mention you do have Cali and Vegas about 4 hours away! :)

So yeah, I'm part of the community now! :) Some might know me from other forums (IOACentral, Behind the Thrills, Orlando United, Florida Thrills, Amusement Insider, and Theme Park Review). I've been into coasters for years now, and I like looking at coasters under construction (in the past, the coasters that really caught my eye were Manta, HRRR, Intimidator, Intimidator 305, Cheetah Hunt, and Raptor at Gardaland), as well as rumors.

Anyways, I'm glad to be part of this community! :D

[Ethan Tracey]

Hey everyone! My name is Ethan Tracey and I'm 21 years old from Southern California. I first joined RCPro back in 2004 and used to spend quite a bit of time on here. I've been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to visit many parks around the country in the last couple of years including Walt Disney World, Cedar Point and Six Flags Great Adventure. Last year I joined the Navy and I am currently at sea on deployment. I have a passion for the amusement park and ride industry and I'm excited to be a member of this site once again!

[Steve K]

Welcome to the Community Ethan! It's always good to have another service member on the site! I'm not sure if I remember you from '04...what screen name did you use back then? Hope to see you active around these parts! :)

[Ethan Tracey]

Thanks Steve! My original username was CoasterKing38 and I used that until about 2007. I referred a few people to this site most notably Jake who posted quite a bit here the last couple of years. I have some great memories including Solace at Knott's Berry Farm and meet up's at Six Flags Magic Mountain with people from RCPro.
