    Your enthusiasm and energy are exactly what we need to see from a coaster enthusiast. Sometimes I’m a little disappointed in people saying great rides aren’t that special just because of other rides. Kings Island is my home park and I never knew how soiled I was by the operations till my son and I went on a summer trip to several other parks. Great content and glad you loved the park!

    This is very true, it’s refreshing and very much welcomed to see two friends enjoy themselves at an Ohio park NOT names Cedar Point or at a park enjoying a coaster not named Fury325, Iron Gwazi, SteVe etc etc etc, Kings Island has always been an amazing park and has always been a major part of my families life and source of entertainment, thrills and laughs over many decades now. It is one of my home parks though I am not originally from Ohio, we drove down every year from Chicago to enjoy Kings Island because it was always such a great park. Im more a fan of the paramount years personally but cedar fair is one of the best park chains in the US hands down and credit to them as well since taking over ownership of Kings Island. Kings island definitely has the best employees hands down. No other park comes close to what the employees of kings island consistently deliver to make the guest experience as happy and fun as possible.

    Great vid as always. I think one reason Kings Island is so good is that it was in competition with Cedar Point for many years which forced both Parks to be inventive. Kings Island also has such a great history that they capitalize on. Even now that it is a cedar fair park, the leadership has been around through many decades and loves the park just as much as the fans. So glad you got to do some of the classic things like beast night rides, getting arm wet on Dback splash down, good duel on Racer, the "Blue Ice cream (aka the Smurf ice cream from years past) that is officially a blue berry flavor, and so much more. So glad to see you experience the things that I have been experiencing for 15 years. Kings Island is a great home park and until I started traveling other places I had no idea how special it was. The operations are killer at Kings Island and we ALWAYS have all the rides open (with the exception of occasional Bat closure). In terms of night rides I don't know if there is a better park. Kings Island uses the "remote" settings to create extraordinary night rides on Beast, Orion, Dback, Banshee, Mystic Timbers, and The Bat (The Bat never gets enough credit for how good it is and how good it's night rides are). My personal favorite at the park is still Dback just because it's perfect. Everything I'm looking for it delivers and it feels like it was worth my wait. The Beast is my solid #2 and as you said Marc it's so unconventional because it was built in house by two park engineers after John Allen of PTC refused to come out of retirement to do the job. I understand that it might not float everyone's boat (no airtime, not a lot of hills, etc) but to me, it's all about that speed, setting, length, and the double helix is the best ending of any rollercoaster I've ridden. Orion and Banshee are definitely both solid as well. Nostalgia is strong with Racer, Adventure Express (which is themed for Indiana Jones Temple of Doom), The Bat, Flight of Fear, and Stunt Coaster. I'm glad that Mystic Timbers is a fav amongst other guests (it doesn't even crack my top 100 but the more I travel the more I realize I am not a GCI fan because of how much they throw you around). I've got a new appreciation for Invertigo now that it's so rare. I always thought it was a head banger but this season it's been running really smoothly so whatever they did to it was awesome! Anyway, so glad you finally made it and for anyone reading my extremely lengthy comment, yes I'm a person who consistently asked "when are you going to Kings Island?" in Marc's comment sections.

    The Beast is a legend. If it was not trimmed, word is that it would do about 70 to 75mph. It clocks in at about 63mph now. The retracking did wonders for it. The Beast retains it's legendary status as one of the very best night rides on planet Earth.

    The operations at this park are top notch. The employees really care. They are the best thing about this park. I've just never seen bad operations at this park. My opinion of the coaster line-up is not as high as most. I really have come around with Mystic Timbers as that is clearly the best in the park but I still prefer GoldStriker to it. Orion and Diamondback are both solid coasters in my Top 50, but nowhere near the level of a Fury or Mako. Diamondback's issue is it has a rattle as the layout is quite good. Banshee jack hammers quite a bit. Again, the layout is quite good but the ride experience is really hurt by the jack hammering. Beast is overrated in my mind. Of the other coasters I think Bat is underrated. Great setting. As far as the other supporting coasters, they are pretty much ok at best. Racer is a bit rougher than say Racer 75 at Kings Dominion which I prefer. Backlot is ok. I'm not really a fan of Invertigo or Flight of Fear. I enjoyed Firehawk when it was at the park, but Orion is clearly a trade up. It isn't a deep line-up for me. I enjoy the top 3. If you want good wood coasters- HOLIDAY WORLD, but I'm sure you figured that out later in the trip.

    Kings Island is my home park and let me just say, I couldn’t possibly be more grateful. And considering we’re about to get a whole new themed area makes it even better. The only things I would touch up on if I could would be the dispatch time for mystic Timbers, adventure express, and diamondback because they all have slow dispatch time every time I visit lol. Despite that Kings Island is still one of THE BEST parks out there. P.S: Y’all are speaking straight cap saying the bat and mystic Timbers don’t feel short lol. They feel like they’re like 20 seconds after the lift hill. 😂😂😂

    I live 30 minutes away so my fiance and I go 1-2 times a week. I have to say tho, if you can ever make it back, every ride gives great night rides! However, you also need to experience The bat, Banshee, and Diamondback at night! The bat has you flying close to the trees at high speed as you swing the banks so it’s a much elevated experience when you can’t see! The banshee has cool lighting around it and is also just elevated by low visibility in the night. Lastly, Diamondback is my personal favorite night ride and the beast would be second. It also goes out into the woods, with the 10 big air time hills and three turns 2 being in the woods where it’s dark, it’s crazy. You can’t see when you’re creating the top so you just drop unexpectedly, then because you can’t see the bottom you just fall back into the seat and then back up. It’s so fun.

    I was there the weekend before you for the first time, and I totally agree about the hate that Orion gets. It's completely ridiculous, it's a great ride. It's behind Diamondback and Mystic Timbers in my ranking for the park, but that's just because those rides are also insane and world-class elite coasters. Kings Island is a 10/10 for sure. Diamondback, Mystic Timbers, Orion, The Beast, and Banshee are the best 5 coasters in any single park that I've ever been to.

    Such a nice park. Had a good time here last week. Orion was great. The first drop is equally as good as Fury's first drop. I enjoyed the entire layout. Although I do prefer Fury 325, Orion is not too far behind it in being a great coaster. Diamondback was incredible. My second favorite hyper, after Goliath at Six Flags Over Georgia. Mystic Timbers was great -- my new favorite wooden coaster. And Banshee was the perfect coaster for me. It is now my favorite invert, unseating Afterburn as my #1 invert.

    I live about 2 1/2 hours away from KI and I often enjoy it more than my home park, Cedar Point. The operations here are near perfect. I love how Mystic Timbers, The Beast, and Diamondback are all right there within just a minute walk from each other. Just an amazing collection. My only gripe is that I wish they could have a 3rd coaster operating during Winterfests but that is so minor of a thing that it is barely even worth complaining about. This park should either add a Vekoma Shockwave or one of the new Intamins like Pantheon.

Mystic Timbers is definitely a fan favorite. I personally loved Vortex and Outer Limits because they were one of the first roller coasters to actually scare the S!@t out of me lol (besides Son of Beast but for other reasons lol). October is definitely one of the best times to go because of all the Halloween themed stuff.

    While KI doesn't have any top 3 bucket list coaster I've not yet ridden; I can say it's the biggest bucket list park I've not yet visited. I'd imagine my favourite ride in the park would be Diamondback in the back car (row 17 or 18). KI has not only a great coaster lineup but a deep one as well. I'd think Diamondback wins, followed by Orion, Banshee, Mystic Timers and The Beast, but I'm flexible in my opinion since I've never visited KI and know I could be just as wrong in my opinion I have now before visiting. My only minor quibble is that I wouldn't call Mystic Timbers or Orion long rides, and I'd be willing to guess that the only reason your brother thinks Orion is long is because it's the only full layout giga coaster he's ridden, so that height and speed lasting over 50 seconds was an unparalleled experience for him. In that way Orion is similar to Leviathan; but Millennium Force; Steel Dragon 2000 and Fury 325 feature significantly longer ride durations for any coaster with drops of or over 300' and speeds of or over 90 MPH (not that I'm actually expecting Steel Dragon 2000 to beat Orion in your opinion) I LOVE this video and cannot wait to hear your reviews on the big five in the park, especially Diamondback in the back car. Thanks for posting!

    Wow your first time to King's Island? That's awesome! Fun Fact, Looks like we swapped locations, as I was just out in southern California and hit Magic Mountain. (We have talked before, I lived in San Diego for years). Anyways, Kings Island is a Top tier park definitely the best park you'll be going to on your trip! Hope you enjoyed the Coasters.... Great video bro keep it up and travel safe

    You guys would be great riding buddies. I'm always yelling and having a good time on coasters. You're right though.. We are so spoiled here in Cincinnati having KI.. With the park being right there for us and being so good.. when we go anywhere else we have extremely high expectations. The biggest downfall of KI currently is we're missing a really good RMC and maybe an Intamin like Maverick at CP. Even being as rough as it was, the removal of Vortex was a punch in the gut. It was gorgeous to look at.

    This being my home park is amazing their lineup is full with b&ms but I didn’t get the hate about Orion until I rode fury and I just wish they could have done more because it feels like it flys by but they probably have one of the deepest parks for their rides

    This is my home park. I just was there for the first time since 2017, and I did just post a vlog. I did get a season pass now to Cedar Fair. Orion was fantastic... I think it's my favorite ride because I like the rush. Diamondback is just such an amazing ride though as is the Beast. Mystic is a great ride... just to me its way short comparatively. TBH, the thought of going more to this park next year... I keep thinking about more rides on Orion lol. I have been on M.Force and Fury 325 as well. Honestly... I think Orion is better than M. Force. Fury 325 takes the cake, but for Orion being within 2 hours of me.... I am just super happy. Next year.... we add to the total.

    I grew up an hour and half north of KI, but I now live in Cleveland and haven't been there in a long time. This video makes me want to get back there ASAP! Great video, I really enjoyed both of your reviews of the coasters and the park in general. I do have to ask since Cedar Point is essentially my home park. I do have to ask...What are your thoughts on a comparison of KI to CP?

    First coaster vlog I've actually watched through. Maybe because KI is my home park, maybe because you two actually add to the video! Your commentary is great. That being said, did you miss flight of fear?? Easily the best themed ride in the park and a unique experience. Lights off, indoors, electromagnetic launch into a bowl of spaghetti where you can't see the track. It's the big white building you see from a few other coasters.

Super happy you got the daytime and nighttime haunt experience what with the beast and mystic timbers- I make a point to ride the Beast twice each time because it's cool both ways.

    Orion is so good I agree it is underrated Mystic timbers is my no 1. in the park that ride is insane Orion no2. Beast no.3 totally insane and this ranking is without a night ride! Diomondback was running super slow for me so I thought it was super overrated and was no.5 for me and Banshee no.4 P.S I didn't get racing on Racer😪
