Time for another round of Coaster Dash loosing his mind in the Coaster POVs

[@michaelknopp9388]

I’ve said it before and I’ll happily say it again: you’ve been doing an amazing job with the channel. Easily my favorite coaster content. The ladies are a great addition to the CoasterDash channel and I love having three unique opinions on a ride. You keep that team together boss!

[@CoasterDash]

Thanks brother. I really do appreciate that.

[@clownbadisscratch3441]

i will not breath until coasterdash drops the cedar point vlog

[@CoasterDash]

Does this count as murder? 🤣

[@RADZADproductions]

I agree thunder run is a lot better than most people say. That opening airtime sequence is great.

[@CoasterDash]

Yeah, it’s not bad!

[@joeyquinn212]

I quite enjoyed Thunder Run. I prefer it in the front row.

[@ryanmcdonnell5988]

I got to ride Storm Chaser 38 times in 2021. Now I get to revisit it next month, and I'm very excited.

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

I had a lot of fun here last year. The park is a great value not just for the dry park but also Hurricane Bay, my favorite water park.

[@CoasterDash]

I’d love to try the waterslides next time.

[@morganmcmahon3021]

This park looks charming with the small collection of coasters and the cinnamon bread with apple butter. If you like Ferris wheels, then definitely recommend riding the London Eye with Jesiah when you guys are in London if you have time🇬🇧. I’m excited for my first visit to Kentucky later this year. Looking forward to seeing the HoliWood Nights vlog, those woodies at that park look elite. And never thought I’d say this, but may be returning to Disney after so many years,either at the end of this year or early next year😭🐭🤩

[@kingdragon3879]

The Kentucky flier announcement video is still the greatest thing on the internet

[@wabashcoasters4636]

I absolutely adore storm chaser as it was running crazy when I went in 2021, its still my number 2 after all this time.

[@kingstyn]

i work in the waterpark at kentucky kingdom, thanks for coming to the park :D

[@BenjaminHeinze23]

I’m going there for the first time on the 19th and I get to ride my first ever RMC! I am so excited

[@CoasterDash]

You’ll love it! Have a great visit 🙌🏻

[@jacklawson34]

Kentucky Kingdom is about a 20 minute walking distance from my grandmothers house

[@KaiserEditz10]

Definitely interested to see what you think of Storm Chaser! Welp I saw😅

[@chellyberry4434]

This is my home park! I watched your alls review of kings island and that was the first video i ever watched of you all. Im really thankful im close to three big parks: kings island, KK, and Holiday World. I grew up going here when it was six flags and the kid area was themed to looney tunes. Its so crazy thinking back and seeing how much the park has improved over the years. Chang was incredibly popular and I was able to ride greased lightning before the closure a single loop coaster. The ferris wheel and roller skater are both original rides. The roller skater was one of my absolute favorites as a kid. Short but sweet and the ride vehicle is adorable. Also some of the original rides (when i was growing up) are/were on the website that I saw thinking about going this year were: the Himalaya, bluebeards bounty, big foot trucks, flying duchman, giant wheel, 5D cinema, pounce & bounce - was looney tunes themed before, roller skater, rowdy racers- was looney tuned themed before with each car being a character. These are the only ones I know for sure from remembering but im pretty sure almost all the kid area ones are the same which is great to see! I dont know if they’re original to the park but they were there before it closed. Hope this helped and Im glad you all had fun if you all are ever back id love to join you all or answer any questions!

[@CoasterDash]

Thanks for watching! Very interesting history.

[@BobSebring]

Very cool, I never knew these place even existed. Thanks.

[@CoasterDash]

Enjoy!

[@stephenwiedeman2726]

@coasterdash love your videos and your enthusiasm while traveling to all these theme parks and riding all those coasters.

[@gabet3514]

Ive always noticed there is a lot of airtime in this park and airtime is my favorite sensation. I would think I would love this park for that reason

[@CoasterDash]

Oh, absolutely! Tons of airtime at Kentucky Kingdom.

[@burtonfan1995]

Judging a coaster by a back row ride with no one else on the train is wild

[@blackjack21477]

I mean he did say in the beginning of the video that the POV he puts in the video is after park closure….pay more attention

[@sheridayton8]

Loved the video. If I can ever get to Kentucky would definitely go. Cool that they kept park open for you too. Awesome.

[@just-dashin]

Here lies CoasterDash’s sanity ???? - 2024

[@Mylifical]

I used to live in Kentucky and ever since I moved to Ohio ive been spoiled by Cedar Point so now the Kentucky Kingdom rides are all baby rides to me lol

[@CisForCoasters]

Doing a great job!

[@CoasterDash]

Wow! Big donation. Thanks for watching 🤙🏻❤️

[@sitebproductions]

Gotta give Ed Hart his credit tho

[@tomasparsons3386]

1,000,000% agree about sky rides! I joke with my daughter that only “Real” parks have sky rides. Holiday World, for love of God, please 🙏🏼

[@Trim_Brakes_06]

You seem to to just always catch Storm Chaser on slow days. I've seen videos where it runs cartoonishly fast, and it looks lowkey violent.

[@michael7054]

Great video! Happy to see you finally got the Kentucky Flyer and Roller Skater Credits! It's great to see you almost got 30K subs as well as having 800 credits now! Looking forward to seeing you go to Holiday World for the 3rd time!

[@CoasterDash]

Thanks Michael! I appreciate it.

[@michael7054]

@@CoasterDash You're very welcome!

[@Fancy_Vrr-bd1ml]

I wish i could do what you do! Keep up the good work!

[@kd9lac803]

One thing to remember is that this park has height restrictions thanks to its proximity to Louisville's airport (about a mile and a half away), so their rides can't pick up the same kind of speed you find on Top Thrill and Fury 325

[@vanwinklekaitlyn]

u gotta ride storm chaser in the front

[@ScottyMania313]

I have enjoyed this trip vastly. Great educational and fun vids. I have yet to hit up a theme park this Summer, but I did go to a carnival and enjoyed the ups and downs......of a funnel cake. Next time they'll RMC it by adding some whipped cream for me. Holiday World's collection of woodies is epic. Enjoy.

[@CoasterDash]

Lol thanks so much!

[@ThunderDashHub]

Heh, Thunder Run is basically a mirrored Hurler.

[@jeremiahallyn4603]

What are they planning to do with the old T3 coaster? Isn't it just sitting there not being used?

[@GhostlyMemes556]

13:07 that guy bro

[@noahkessler5500]

The first pov was the slowest ive ever seen storm chaser run definitely looked faster in the second ride but ive been on it when its been way faster you can see in the pov i uploaded the elements hit so hard and it flew into the break run

[@joshuamcgraw5823]

I totally agree with you that LR is better than Storm Chaser, hard to beat that lightning run first drop and those hills

[@billofwrights7695]

Have you ever featured in some of Koaster Kids/Thrills United’s videos? Those two girls are TU Regional Reps!

[@Themersive]

Great channel

[@TheCoasterSerpent]

A generic RMC. What a burn! I just got to get back to this park again.

[@crveech]

Storm Chaser was my first RMC, so I love it. But I've been on better ones ever since. Rode Wildcat's Revenge today. Amazing! Lightning Run is excellent. Thunder Run was surprisingly decent. I didn't ride Kentucky Flyer last time. Glad they got rid of T3. It was garbage.

[@yodoman97]

Man storm chaser looks like its running like shit this year. When I went 3 years ago that thing was hauling.

[@Huntly23]

When I went storm chaser was running so crazy and thunder run was by far the most painful coaster experience I had ever had 😅😅 idk how we have such different opinions

[@calvinpetty343]

🤯 I DISCOVERED SOMETHING! If you’re in the back seat of a coaster, you can lean outside the train and look backwards the whole ride! I’ve never ridden in a backwards facing seat but I imagine this feels like that except more out of control. Beware of neck pain though. Coasterdash I gotta see you do this!

[@Sourskittle1]

Ever heard of all body parts inside the car at all times

[@Huntly23]

This is crazy 😭😭😭

[@calvinpetty343]

@@Sourskittle1 hm? What? What are you talking about? 😅

[@Sourskittle1]

@@calvinpetty343 if you lean your head out of the train, you could face more injuries due to headchoppers, not to mention a bumpy or intense ride causing a ton of neck pain, would not recommend ever

[@Sourskittle1]

Doing this on a bumpy or intense coaster could cause even more neck pain, let alone the higher chance to get hurt by a support or theming because of a dumb decision, would not recommend ever doing this on a coaster, would recommend following the safety rules and keeping all body parts in the car except for putting your hands up

[@davidnevolo4402]

Woah almost just thought i had a Mandela effect. Confused this with elitch gardens in denver, where they had some iconic wooden coaster called twister. I expected it to be here. And im shocked i never hear about that park or that ride whatsoever

[@davidnevolo4402]

Fun fact: green lantern at sfgadv was originally at kentucky kingdom as Chang

[@CoasterDash]

It’s hard to even imagine that being here 🤯

[@Kennywood_Fanatic]

Now lighting run or phantom’s revenge?

[@PaxtonBolanos]

@CoasterDash Did you have to get a media pass to film POVs or were the ride ops cool with it

[@CoasterDash]

You must get special permissions to film before or after normal operating hours at this park.

[@TheNinjaDC]

At Kentucky Kingdom the cinnamon rolls are better than the cinnamon bread.

[@sadcat12]

Hi

[@adammills8087]

I'm looking forward to finally going to Kentucky Kingdom. I had planned to go last month, but had to change my plans. But, I'm definitely going to make the trip in late July -- and hit Holiday World as well. Like Phantom's Revenge, Lightning Run is a coaster that I have never heard a single person ever state a low or even mediocre opinion of. I've only heard what a great coaster it is -- and I fully believe it. Honestly, I'm looking forward to riding it more than Storm Chaser. I'm certainly looking forward to Storm Chaser, but Lightning Run is more enticing to me. I've always heard mixed reviews about Storm Chaser, with some people swearing it's one of the best RMC's on the planet while others find it to be a really good coaster (but one of the weakest RMC's) that happens to be overrated. I'm very curious to ride it, to find out for myself how it is. I do love Twisted Cyclone -- appreciate what it does in a short ride duration and in such a compact layout -- and when I watch the video footage of Storm Chaser, it doesn't seem to have the same level of aggressiveness and punch to it as Twisted Cyclone. Perhaps, I'm wrong about that. I guess I'll find it this summer.

[@CoasterDash]

Have a great visit, Adam!

[@adammills8087]

@@CoasterDash Thanks! I'm looking forward to it!

[@michaelknopp9388]

FYI: sorry about that weed smell. I was there a few weeks back.

[@corybourrier9722]

I’ll be at Canadas Wonderland June 26, 26 and 28, . Will you be there???

[@CoasterDash]

We’ve already visited each of the parks on the trip.

[@jaybird455]

I literally live in Louisville and still have not ridden Storm Chaser or Lightning Run lol. I’m taking a trip to Carowinds next week and when I get back, I’ll have 99 credits (assuming I can get all 13 credits while there). I was hoping Top Thrill 2 would open up and that could be my 100th, but I might have to settle on either Lightning Run or make a hike over to Holiday World and have the Voyage be my 100th credit. What would you do for your 100th?

[@jaybird455]

@@CoasterDash nice!!

[@Dackery.]

Wouldn't Storm Chaser been a better ride in the back if the train was full?

[@CoasterDash]

Remember, we got plenty of rides with a full train before that POV was recorded. Our reviews reflected those rides too.

[@OneOne7Rih]

How you get complimentary Tickets so much ? Edit 13:20 I Think Bro was Taunting You 😂😂

[@b.a.d.adventures]

Do you get permission from the park to record or you just go for it?

Have you been to beach bend?

Yes, I just visited for my first time! Stay tuned to the vlog :)
