Kings island literally being a 15 min drive for me: 1 visit this year Carowinds literally being a 8 hour drive for me: 2 visits this year

I feel like Orion is running SIGNIFICANTLY better this year than it was last year. Not only is it smoother, but this thing hauls butt!

I'm glad that even though Sarah is an Orlando coaster enthusiast, she doesn't always compare everything do Disney or universal. A lot of Florida thoosies do that

I’m so glad I got to ride Firehawk before it closed. It was a really fun ride.

0:20 “we just got here and we’re already roasting Orion”

A few months ago I went to King's Island with my dad. We were in line for Flying Ace and these high school age girls started talking to us, saying "don't go on orion, it's terrible" and they were so pumped for Flying Ace. I'm pretty sure they were serious.

Ready for the Michigans Adventure & Minnesota vlogs!

Is it just me, or does it seem that rides have been breaking down a LOT this year? Gatekeeper’s chain broke, HQ Spinsanity at SFA had a dampener issue with a leg, now Toro derailed at SFGAd. What is happening? Also, the reason why Orion seems like a giant hyper is because it WAS originally a hyper; KI told everyone that the rumored CGA hyper was canceled and supersized for Kings Island

Love seeing my home park on your videos!

I just went to Kings Island for the first time last weekend and it was a blast!

I saw you in line for Orion! And then I got stuck on it lol

I'm definitely a bigger theme park fan than amusement park fan. For example, Knotts is my second favorite Cedar Fair park. That being said, I really have to tip my hat to Kings Island. As amusement parks go it's really an incredible place with excellent atmosphere and a very well balanced ride collection.

I’ve gone to cedar point three times and always thought if I’m going to Ohio I’m going to cedar point but my brother is going to college in Ohio and it is close to kings island so maybe I could get to it

Me: can't wait to see Sarah go to KI for the first time 0:00: already roasting the park

It's ironic, I went to HW, then KK, then KI last week! Had never been to KK, it had been 18 years for HW and 20 years for KI. I went to the dark side and got the Fast Lane Plus for my second day at KI, but I got on so many rides! I loved their "Big 3" B&M's. I hadn't been to any medium or large parks in 15 years, it was great to get back out. As for Orion, I can't really compare it to other gigas since the only other one I've ever been on is MF. But overall I preferred both Banshee and Diamondback.

I dont want an RMC of Beast, but what about a Titan Track makeover? The double helix needs to remain unchanged, but if Titan track could be used to update the layout and remove some of the trims in the first half, the Beast could once again be world class

I love how even those who are somehow still hung up over Cedar Fair’s own nomenclature on what constitutes a giga (Boring! Please get over it.) still have to admit to the less snobbish GP masses that Orion is a really great ride! BTW it’s 300 feet from the lowest point on the first drop. It’s not built on flat ground. If you come up with a category, you get to define its parameters. Full disclosure: I’ve just had one ride on it and it was literally less than a week ago. In addition, the only other giga I’ve ridden is Millennium Force and that was in 2000 and 2003 (which also gets unfair hate). That said, everyone I was with, myself included, thought Orion was amazing! It was smooth, fast and had amazing air time with no pain when we rode it! That should be a winner in anyone’s book! In the end it’s how it makes you feel! Oh and I vote to keep maintaining The Beast the way it is! … well, maybe some Gravity Group treatment could help without completely changing the experience. It’s a piece of Roller Coaster History like The Racer! (Just don’t sit over an axle in the last car! OW!) Some things are worth preserving. There are plenty of choices of parks and coasters from which to choose. Kings Island is a very popular park! It will survive loosing a few of us. Let’s not remove everything that makes Kings Island so unique! That’s a truly great park with a rich history! We just don’t need to RMC everything! Let’s keep some of the icons! … and please understand that I appreciate the fact that coaster channels must walk a fine line and deliver content appropriate to their target audience. Taylor, you are the great mediator. You do it with class! Thank you for your open mind and very helpful content! I love the enthusiasm you and Sarah bring to this hobby. There’s room for everyone here, even us pensioners!

crazy experience seeing you there! me and my friends were going nuts lmao. greetings from Florida😎

"THE CICADAS ARE EVERYWHERE, THEY'RE SO LOUD" **cries in maryland** 😭😭😂

I was just at KI on the 22nd and 23rd for my first time. Orion is my #2 giga of the 5 in North America!

Recognized Paul working Orion a few weeks ago but wasn't 100% sure it was him aha. Wow, should have said something. Been waiting for this video! KI was fantastic. Every ride was hauling at their maximum pace. Beast was rough though!

Pro tip: try to get last ride of the night on flight of fear. They turn the lights on

Im proud to have this as my home park

Great vlog, saw you in line for Orion because when it broke down I was on the train on the break run😂

You should do updates coaster reviews for KI!

I appreciate the tip on getting your hand far enough back on diamondback to get drenched. Did it today on last ride and got fantastic results. Whole left side of body soaked.

Nice to see Paul back.

I went in early June and it was awesome!

Beast at night is the best thing the park has lol 😂

That moment when Taylor visits your home park, you have a season pass, but you made plans for the day without knowing 🙃

When Sarah says to RMC the beast: 👁 👄 👁

I have not been to Kinds Island since I lived in Ohio. I was 17 ish and now almost 50 OMG!

Just to be clear... Sarah does know that Orion is a giga. Right?

I love Cedar Point but you’ll get twice as many rides at Kings Island. Great operations. I am at Kings Island every week. The Racer is much better this year. This must be an old vid, cuz KI has been open until 10pm for a week.

Beast has gotten absurdly rough, won't be riding it again till something is done.

Such a fun park

Orion's at its best....but yeah, I know the Flight of Fear inside the exit has a bunch of old VHS videotapes.....Makes me wonder what Kings Island's doing with this nowadays....Definitely can't wait to celebrate Kings Island's 50th Anniversary Golden Celebration in a couple months even though it's already fast approaching now.

Orion, I 305, and millennium force all have the same size first drop. Definitely all gigs coasters

Taylor you are probably aware of this but if you got your platinum pass from Kings Dominion, you have $50 on your pass as a reward since they did not open last year. Just wanted to remind you in case you forgot. I am assuming you got your pass from Kings Dominion, as much as you travel I could be wrong, but didn’t want you to miss out on free money.

If the beast was RMCed… can you imagine…. All that RMC straight track?

Orion is awesome at night. I just rode it after fireworks last night, but Fury is still the best.

So I am going to Kings Island, first time in 25 years. Besides Beast, what is the best night ride(coaster)?

Love Coaster Studios!!

I started the day with Orion which was awesome, but I think I preferred Diamondback to it for most of the day. At the end of the day though, I finished with 3 straight rides on it, and now it's my favorite at the park! Also just inside my top 10 as well. Right behind MF.

This is my home park and i didn’t realize how not smooth banshee and diamondback are until yesterday

Cant wait for a valleyfair video!

i went last year in October and got a night ride on Orion and its 10/10 only two complaints I had was didn't get to try blueberry boba tea and I missed out on banshee it was closed

I have a pass to kings island (Because I live near it) i've been so many times that I started speaking with anouncment lady at 0:25 lol

I’ve never been to kings island I can’t wait to go

Are you planning on doing more Coaster Parodies? If so could you do more kings island ones? Banshee, the beast, and Orion

Nice video

I was on a train for mystic in the vlog lol

Great Park!

The beast at night is all time fun

Sorry for breaking Orion right before you guys got on the last ride of the night, it’s my job lol 😂 Edit: wait, was this a different day?

Its technically a giga because the drop is 300 feet

Turning The Beast into an RMC is a horrible idea. Its too legendary and iconic. Don't touch it.

I WAS HERE TODAY!!

Did you guys see Logan operating the Drop Tower?

fun video, you should have ridden the bat. a old friend is working it this year.

It’s a blessing to be only 15 minutes away. Fury is definitely better but Orion’s drop is more powerful.

Funny thing is I seen you at kings island Taylor a few weeks ago

Sorry for bringing up an unrelated topic on a Kings Island video, but I think we may have confirmation of the record breaking Gerstlauer's location. I just saw a transcript of the call for the ride being approved on a CoasterForce thread. The script was posted last Thursday, June 24th.

Did yall hear about toro derailing

OMG I was riding the beast before ya was alive lol

Taylor thoughts about the el Toro derailment? Do you think the whole track will get retracted?

what day did you guys go? i was recently there i wanna see if we were there at the same time

PlS do a carowinds blog we haven’t had one yet, and we haven’t had a carowinds video since Copperhead!!!!

I've never been to King's Island-

5:38 Sorry, Sarah, but there is absolutely no way that the Beast will get the RMC treatment. EVER!

I was at Kings island june 26-27th 😁😁😁

who else thinks they need to remodel the entrance at Kings Island

Me looking for myself because I was there all day 😎✌️

Go To Cedar Point Is Better Then Kings Island.

Orion would be better than fury if the first two elements werent airtimeless turns

NEVER RMC THE BEAST

RMC raptor at Six Flags Magic Mountain? Recently saw rmc raptor trains by Scream

It's such a shame the Canada/u.s border is still closed. I so want to go to Kings Island.

Unpopular opinion Beast>mystic timbers

AAHHHH!!! Sarah hasn't been to Kings Island yet? Where else has she not been to yet that would surprise me?

yeahhh so update i rode fury 5 times today it’s #1 orion is #6

Awesome vlog! How was Diamondback running?

Hi Will, Jed, Peter, Jacob, Tyler. I miss y’all 🥺🥲

Why was the chicken sandwich eaten like that hahaha

Lol Orion is no Fury 325

i saw you on diamondback here but i didn’t get a chance to say hi.

RMCing the Beast would carry and automatic eternal sentience in hell. People seem to forget that terrain coasters are their own genre and shouldn’t be compared to other woodies.

Note: don’t give Taylor your burger

I’m surprised Sarah has never been to Kings Island 👀

Does Kings Island need a reservations for passholders? I got a platinum pass for CP and I know reservations are going away for that park, but I’m not sure if Kings Island still has them.

I'm wondering when they going to revive Son Of Beast.

Are you spending the 4th in a park

bro you didnt yell slayer to the dude with the shirt im disappointed

Will you make a video of the El Toro Derailment?

Orion is 301 foot not 287 just saying It's also a giga Coaster

0:39 Bruh you went to Winterfest 7 months ago

Kings Island needs to at least re-track The Beast, I think it would be a much better ride if they did

been 5 times this season already

Taylor, what is your opinion on Excalibur at ValleyFair?
