Went two fridays ago the roller coaster is awsome. Wish it was a longer ride but worth the wait. wait wasnt too long either due to the fact that it seats up to four people a row and it has about 6-7 rows in a train plus they run two.

:bigthumb loved it one of my favorits because it is so different.
Check it out some time.

I would still like to find the reason it went down last season. I know it dead stopped in the middle of the tracks for no appearent reason. I don't think I will ever get on it. I was just wondering if they fixed it or not.

I rode Firehawk back in 03 or so when it was still at Six Flags Ohio. (Now Geauga Lake.) It was a pretty cool experience, but when they announced they were moving it to KI, I wondered how they'd be able to handle the long loading/unloading times. Geauga Lake is a pretty small park with very light attendance compared to KI, and the line for it still took 40 minutes.

It does look way better now. I think it was painted darker colors up there when they built it.

They're taking out the loop, so basically the whole "first looping wooden coaster" thing is shot.

Is this one big guy friendly? I love coasters but there are a few there that are quite hard if not impossible for a guy with big shoulders to get into.
