Thank you for showcasing & blessing our little 'ol charmer of a park with that legendary, crispy 4k/24fps Coaster Studios quality 👌 🔥 Putting the local KZreadrs to shame, because they've NEVER shot our park as beautifully as you guys have. Also, thank you for focusing on the coasters. The local KZreadrs tend to primarily focus on food, it's awesome to see the Knotts coaster line-up get some love & attention. I'm team Giga-Coaster for Knotts by the way...🤞 🤞 🤞 ... It COULD happen 😔 🙏

If you're going with a friend, split the food pass. Every 90 minutes = a new meal or snack, and every 15 minutes is a drink for the upgraded one. The food is pretty decent too. My favorites are the turkey leg from fireman's BBQ near Ghostrider, brisket from Boardwalk BBQ across from Xcelerator, also the loaded fries in Fiesta Village

Defenitley a super busy park though. This park I want to improve because it’s good, magic mountain I want to improve because it could be incredible, but now it’s worse than the ride lineup. Also silver bullet is so super underrated. Not best invert, but best I have ridden(only Batman clones other than that, later this week I’ll ride banshee and raptor) but pure fun and a ride I feel everyone can enjoy

I am a Ride-Op in Fiesta Village and Scare Actor during Scary Farm! Glad You ALL had a "Berry" Fun Time at the Park!

Knott's is now a six flags park

this is a perfect home park for me because of the small park charm and standout coaster with great supporting coasters.

Xcelerator is so gorgeous and that launch is insaaaaane

What great camerawork and montage! Thumbs up!

Really great video and love the opening drone montage. Knotts is special and it’s my home park, although I will say my last experience at the park was like yours. My last visit was a couple years ago and I had the feeling that the operations are intentionally kept slow in order to make it almost mandatory to buy Fast Lane. The existence of Fast Lane creates a scenario in which the park actually does better when the experience gets worse. Unless people stop going to the park it won’t change.

Tis a shame that This Is How We Roll still isn't on Spotify. It's an awesome song and I'd love to have it on my personal playlist!

It’s also a nightmare for us. Our school had a trip there for promotion and we thought that we were the only school but there were like 20 other schools. We had to wait in an HOUR line just to get into the park. Each coaster was minimum 2.5 hours and I was only able to get on 1 coaster and a flat ride that day due to certain times we had to check in to our teachers. Ghost rider and accelerator both had one train so it was a nightmare

Nobody ever said you're bad with a darn camera. Good stuff yo.

The cedar fair lore is now six flags lore

Wow looks like lots of fun!

What I would love to see in the future would be a park map in the beginning of the blog to get little overview :) especially on your trips through other countries!

Looks great 👍

Knott's Might Genuinely be my one of my favorite theme parks ever. The theming in Ghost town and Fiesta village is really quite amazing. Even though I haven't ridden Xcellerator (It ran twice the whole day😭), I am definitely going to head back to Knott's to ride it, and see the new Camp Snoopy. Maybe next year I will try to get to Montezooma and Possibly Epic Universe.

Last time I went to Knotts was back in 2006. Brings back memories. Those wait times are terrible though. I don't remember it being that bad then , but it would depend on the time of year one goes, I guess.

Park needs 5 more coasters, one of which a parking lot giga. Having montezooma down this long is nuts. Fix it or replace it with a next gen boomerang w a dual load station

Sorry the park was that crowded that day, but your video was enjoyable. You two are awesome and meeting up with your friends. Come to my home park Kings Island again. Would like to meet you guys ! Keep up the great videos !

One of my home parks, and the one that's the closest to me. A California treasure 💯

Wow! I have never seen silver bullet more than a 30 minute wait. I go to knotts maybe 5 times a year. That’s crazy that it was as long as most days for ghost rider

That fuji-q shirt is the coolest thing ever...i want all parks to have rad dino merch now

Yall really did my home park justice with that opening cinimatic

I LOVE THIS PARK IT’S SO CUTE💜

I was just there this past Saturday. Waited 2 hours for GhostRider. Was on 1 train which sucked. We'll worth it. Such an awesome ride. Also rode Hangtime, Silver Bullet, Xcelerator, Sierra Sidewinder, Calico River Rapids, Coast Rider & Timber Mountain Log Ride.

Okay epic drone shots !?

Word is that the delay with Montezooma’s Revenge is due to the contractor removing the loop by mistake. I grew up a mile from the park so it’s nice to see the park is doing so well. The crowds have significantly increased over the past 2-3 years. This is mostly due to locals letting their Disneyland passes lapse and purchasing passes for Knotts as Disney keeps raising the cost of their passes. Definitely come out for the Halloween Haunt if you’re able to.

1 train on Ghost rider! Have a six flags day

This is my home park!

My favorite park.

I was just there last friday. Lots of kids that day too 😅

4:10 It does my heart good to hear some love for Silver Bullet. Never understood why some felt it's disappointing. Like, yeah the first drop isn't all that steep, but the ride is still fun overall.

I grew up at Knotts and got a season pass never waited more than 15 mins for sliver bullet,

All the parks in SoCal legit require the premium fast pass - Knott's, Magic Mountain and even Sea World San Diego. The quality of the dispatches and running on one train ops is inexcusable during the summer, and I bet that with the recent Six Flags merger, the prices for everything will likely go up as well - without any improvement to service.

Saw you guys leaving the berry tales arcade!

Everytime we go to Knotts its like this now. Its to the point unless they combine magic mountain and Knotts we will not renew our passes.

The Cedar fair parks are going to hit different now that they have officially merged with Six Flags!

Knott's operations are horrendous. The park has so much potential when being run optimally but it's usually overcrowded on weekends, summer, and holidays and they seem to not be able to keep up. Ghostrider is still one of the best woodies in the world, especially pre-GCI

I’m going on July 14th and I’m sooo excited anyone else going that day?👀

Ghostrider is such a long ride, it’s criminal that it should ever run with one train.

I love knotts so much. It's my home park. I've only been once this year and it makes me sad :( haha.

I've only ever gone during Knotts Scary Farm, but it was on par with HHN.

I was in the row behind you on Silver bullet I did not want to disturb your video though or you

I love my childhood park🥹

At one of the 4 six flags parks in California lol.

Sarah flaunting that fast lane

Ghostrider lost %15 capacity per train with the switch to GCI, and if they only got two they don't have a spare during refurbs and thus more frequent single-train ops.

I went on a weekday in May - worst experience I've ever had at a theme park. Operations were terrible (5 min dispatches on Xcelerator). Queue times were never updated, they all stayed at 90 - 130 minutes all day regardless of how long the queue actually was. Most of the rides were on one train, and the rides on two trains should have been on three. And to top things off, Ghostrider was closed all day. Extremely depressing atmosphere as well.

Xcelerator may have a bigger layout, but Stealth has THE FASTEST launch of any coaster in the world! 🥳😁🇬🇧

How much did you guys spend on fast passes?

Xcelerator has the best launch of any US coaster. Including original top thrill, kingda ka and Maxx Force

I always forget how inferior Xcelerator is to Stormrunner.

Man those are some absurd wait times. Parks like Knotts either need to A: Massively expand capacity and rides, or B: You need more amusement/theme parks in the LA area. Its a huge metro area and the fact they've only really gotten Knotts, Magic Mountain, Universal Studios and I guess technically Disneyland is quite absurd. All 3 parks are of pretty high quality, perhaps in different departments while lacking in others, but they are defintiely not enough to serve a metro area this huge and make it so everyone has access to amusement thrills. Doesnt even have to be huge parks but like, maybe a few new or expanded parks with like 3-4 coasters and at least one major thrill coaster each. Like something in between Knotts and like Adventure City in scale.

It’s not the end of times, but am I the only one with this problem?
