So I guess out of curiosity if you enjoy the Zipper ride a lot will you probably enjoy a free spin? Can't believe it took 8 of these things getting built in the US before I finally get on one.
Project 2022: Tumbili, Reptilian, Arachnidia, & Jungle X-Pedition
- Thread starter mtorange
- Start date
I understood you were joking. Just saying after the pandemic delayed Pantheon for two years I'm not going to be too upset if this opening is delayed a weekend because of some bad weather. I did get a confirmation email so I guess they're going ahead with the event. Doesn't mean when I get there it will be canceled. If I can get one ride on Grizzly in the cold and pouring rain I'll consider it a win.
^I mean I am about 20% as excited for Tumbili as I was for Pantheon more or less just annoyed with weather in busy season when I am working 50-60 hours a week and it's decision to be nasty KD opening weekend specifically lol.
Who do you think you're talking about? Kennywood?
Actually, no, I agree.... they'll probably close.
Snow would definitely detract from the jungle theming.
I wonder if it will be possible to get 1 lap on Tumbili tomorrow. I want to get it day 1 like Pantheon. I think after I was WOS'd from Timbers in 2018 Day 1 I have a complex about this now or something for the VA parks.
The gods at Pantheon must be angry that the other park is trying to compete.
Me getting hype for Jungle-X opening
Cold temperatures and freeze rain
Monday and Tuesday: Nice 60s and 70s, Us: at work 
Sure seems like a go to me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Can't imagine they'd choose to close at this point after spending all week looking at that forecast. Looking forward to being the only person in the park shooting photos in the snow.

It's one thing to raft the Upper Gauley in windy and rainy conditions, but quite another to ride a coaster in similar weather. Have fun!
I think it's more likely that they'll open, very few people will show up, and then they'll close really early due to weather.
The new map is out. It looks like there is a stage in the middle of Jungle X-Pedition called Flat Rock. The map can be deceiving, but it looks like this stage is literally a circular platform and it isn’t elevated in any way. VERY interesting.

I think the better question to ask here is why is Reptilian a 5 rating on the thrill scale?
Crocodiles are scary!
