      They actually don't show your total or individual weight for privacy purposes. When I asked, the operator told me the system either tells them too heavy, too light or within the operating range and they have to adjust accordingly. So if it's a group of people all at 200+ lbs, they will likely be split up.

    Flying turns had all kinds of problems getting completed. It is documented quite well on the internet. Apparently test runs of the original track layout yielded undesirable results. So the opening was delayed while the track was rerouted. I remember going to Knoebels and seeing this thing sitting there closed. A few seasons it remained SBNO. When it finally opened I was able to get on it. It is a pretty neat and unique ride.

      It's why it took Knoebels seven plus years to open. I've been going there every year since I was a baby and they had it completely built by 2007 although it didn't open until 2014 because they wanted to get it just right. It was entirely built in house using lumber from their lumber yard and it's the only wooden bobsled coaster in the world.

      This is old but it is incredibly smooth. Could probably take a nap on it if you wanted, though its kinda awkward cause its two people per car and you're practically sitting in the other's lap iirc

    Anyone remember the Sreamin' Delta Demon, housed at Opryland in Nashville, TN in the late 80s? It was just like the second one here, and really fun! My sister and I rode it a zillion times. Got torn down with the rest of the park. 😟

    There was a trackless roller coaster at Coney Island in the 60;s called Bobsled, it was a train of about 6 cars for which I have fond memories. This is the first mention I have heard of anything similar.

    Screamin' Delta Demon at the now defunct Opryland was one of my favorite rides as a child, it was an Intamin Bobsled ride. They don't look quite as elegant as the wooden ones like in this video, but their steel construction allowed them to be a little bit taller and more intense. Also the roar of those carts down the metal half-pipe was something like, whenever you got near that part of the park you heard this roar that sounded kind of like thunder. Additionally they operate as single sleds and not a train, so it feels and looks more like an actual bobsled.
    Best I can tell there's only two left operating in the world, Alpine Bobsled (Great Escape, New York) and La Vibora (Six Flags Over Texas). Give them a whirl if you ever find yourself in either of these parks, I can't imagine either installation will be around much longer.
    So cool to see any Flying Turns or Bobsled coasters still running in 2020!
    As a side note, my cousins used to always tell us tales of a time that Opryland ran the Screamin Delta Demon in the rain which lead to a car flipping over and a fatality. Personally I've always thought it was more of an urban legend that reality, but I think it would be pretty hard to actually flip one of those. If you did flip however, those roll bars were not very big, I would imagine the injuries would be bad.

    This is surely one of the best front seat POV's of this historic ride . Wish SoCal would have added the history of the WOODEN bobsled coaster on the video so viewers would get a better understanding of this unique ride (Flying Turns) . First one built in 1930 last one built in 1941 then 72 years later Knoebels brought it back to life like they did with the San Antonio Playland Rocket coaster (Phoenix) . Only 8 WOODEN trackless coasters were ever built prior to Knoebels in 2013 .

    Knobles is a amazing rollercoaster I grew up with tha tbeing the best local themepark 100% recommend if you like camping there is a camping area I never been there but I heard it was good not crazy fun but peaceful with a theme park next to it its in P.A.
    Knobles is the worlds biggest free entry theme park the 2 other big wooden coasters are awsome they used to be better but there still Great I would give it a 10/10 park if you have been there or go there tell me what you rate it
    edit: the second one isnt at Knobles :I
