Oh no I’m so sorry. I’ll pin this comment as well
Imagine going to a theme park and there’s a guy with a camera screaming random words at fences (vekoma, intamin, mack)
Hahaha 😂 oh god now I’m rethinking my life choices haha 😆
I prefer to think of it as chanting, he's summoning the new coaster 😂
@@TopangoSpez hahaha 😂
Not the construction “walls” being completely transparent 😭😂
Haha I know right
But does it being wood play into the theme of the coaster? 🤔
@@ColinNow hmmm I’m not sure.
It's so that air can pass through (preventing the walls from falling over). We had that a lot at Kings Island in the fall of 2018 with our construction fencing.
It was nice speaking to you yesterday. I get why they have a season pass holder day a couple of weeks before the park opens. It's kind of like a soft opening. It allows Wonderland to spot the problems and correct them. Yesterday was a bit of a mess with the restaurants and the power outages with the rides. I hope that with the world eatery opening up in the future, it will lessen the lines at the other restaurants.
Thank you for the long format video. I enjoy them sooooo much. ❤
Thanks for enjoying them :)
Wonderland already hitting the ground running with these teasers. Can't wait to check them out once the park opens.
I know right 😮
So here's a thought, playing on the idea that the big coaster project is tied into World Expo. What if, like Pantheon (manufactured by Intamin), it actually has multiple themes under an umbrella name? So, each of the different areas of the park it goes to represents a different country, province, or similar. So inside mountain would be one theme, Alpen would be its current theme, Extreme Skyflyer plot would be another TBD, etc. Just a thought. ( Admittedly, part of me just wants to see a top hat go over something like a pagoda or other architectural bit of beauty.)
That’s a really neat idea 💡 I love it!
That would be so awesome!
Hey, always love your updates. I'd love to maybe see in one of your future videos an explanation comparing our footing layout to other existing element footing layouts to give us a better idea of what they can be. Although I love coasters, I don't know all the lingo so some visual comparisons with examples would really help me out. Maybe a crash course on the names of elements of a coaster with pictures would make a great video. Love your content and I am learning lots. Keep up the good work, thanks.
A very great idea, I’ll do that :)
Plzz "and no they're not referring to my size." That is such a me comment to my own self 🤣🤣
Haha 😆 better to get to yourself before others am I right? Haha
Great to see on the ground footage! Your videos the last few months have got me so excited for this season, so thank you for making them 😁
Glad they finished making that new exit to thunder run but how am i going to access Showckwave & the bat if the path is blocked off in Alpen? Wonder if the new drink stand will use coca~cola Freestyle? Thanks for the update and i'll be at the park in July+August and maybe October for Haunt, thanks to your friend Craig for the awesome camera work and cya in the park! (I'm putting my coaster bets are on Intamin, Premier and Mack)
Agree with your coaster bets
@@AmusementInsiders My top bet is on Intamin
Recommendation to adjust audio levels. Your voice in the live updates is MUCH louder than your voiceovers. Appreciate the regular content!
I noticed that as well. Thank you for the feedback. I’ll fix it for my next video :)
No need to body shame yourself. You're fine just how you are.
Awe thank you so much. I really appreciate that
100% agree!
Just throwing it out there, but the new ride's name being "Gryphon" is not as far off as we may think. While the Griffin creature is mainly associated with middle east mythology, it does have a place in French mythology as well (just look at Griffin at Busch Gardens Williamsburg). The fact we already have confirmation of "Gryphon's Crown" being the new VIP area combined with the fact that Wonderland loves using the mythical creature theme, I think there's a plausible case.
Gryphon’s Crown looks awesome!! I’m loving the area. It’s definitely a good view. As for the coaster, I’m hoping it’s an Intamin. It would be a big step up for the park.
I actually like seeing you at the park and using the mic. We get to see you at the park and you can show things clearly since you’re there.
The new signs are cool. 7:35 the issue with drinks has ALWAYS been staffing... I found last season as example about half the drink stands were closed every day. 9:43 are you sure they have a drink stand? I was under impression you would need to go into Alls Well Hall to use that drink machine (they already have 2 inside there) so adding a 3rd in such a small area seems odd
Pretty sure about the drink stand in the VIP area and I agree about the understaffed drink stands from last season
I definitely love you recording with the mic in the park!
Okay, thank you so much 😊
It was great meeting you today hope you guys made the best of it :) also can’t wait for the next update! And was so cool seeing all the small changes they made
I like the old school wonderland logo on the site office
Seems like it could be an Intamin LSM top hat based on the footings in the pathway, but it would be easier to tell once they start prepping the other footings.
8 minutes in, and I think I've reached my "allrighty" quota for the day...
Seriously though, thank you for this. Love how you're on top of all the changes going on.
Alpin looks crazy 😁
Soooooo crazy
Great video but when is the vlog coming back
We filmed one today :)
I’m such a nerd but I’m excited for an old English font. I’ve never been to Canada but I’m fully 100% committed to wonderland. I worked for cedar fair in pr and Duane from wonderland came to replace my boss and at the time I was leaving for another job. We worked at worlds of fun for a brief second.
Is the wood paneling a hit or just their play on a construction fence? Because it’s not really blocking any view if you can see thru it
9:00 Never thought about how much you say "Alrighty", Brendon? 😅
This had better be the extreme launch coaster of some sorts. Need something faster than Backlot Stunt or ThunderVolt
It will be faster than those for sure :)
Wow! So happy to see Wonderland open. So much going on. Wish i could ask Grace about what they did with the 40th Anniversary merch. Looks great. So proud.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
iPhone's default camera app doesn't have manual focus, and performs very poorly in low light, using the 1x camera even when zoomed in at 3x for better low-light performance. For videos like this you would be much better off learning to use a dedicated camera such as a DSLR for manual exposure and focus.
Thank you so much for this help. Will def use a camera
whenever its something this BIG i have to go intamin
Love this video! Canada’s wonderland deserves these upgrades
Some Intamin engineers work with Zamperla now. It might be that now Zamperla’s footer design would be similar to Intamin’s. So Zamperla is still not out of the option?
This is a valid point but Zamperla on a recent podcast confirmed they only had 3 projects for 2025. A family coaster and 2 kids
@@AmusementInsiders Cool. I would love it to be Intamin.
I saw you at wonderland today after I was stuck on the bat for 15 minutes but still what a amazing day at wonderland I got too see a cool TH-camr and I got to ride behemoth in front row with my friend because I got a one time use fast pass because of the bat. You’re a very cool person dude!👍
At 3:30 im going to take a blind guess and say that what you caught on camera was an employee making a top hat gesture with their hands
Wether you do the voice over or you do it in person just keep making content.👍
Really appreciate support
That thunder run exit definitely seems temporary
I agree
I'm giving it 2 months and they will have to widen it as I can't wait as well as others with wheelchairs and scooters trying to get up and into thunder run and will sadly be blocking the new ramp.. it was already bad once within the mountain but doable but that exit is small..
@@laffy33 it’ll be interesting to see
Love the videos!
Im not sure I'm a fan of the green colour for the front gate. The leviathan colour wasn't great but at least it was vibrant
I totally understand that. I hate the yellow
Yes it feels like some of the colours are dated looking. Probably cause they wanted a certain colour scheme/look (Canadian/natural themed?) but then they were stuck working with the existing structure and had to work with what they had. Assume they wanted to save on the front gate Reno so they could pour the money into the other 2024 improvements and the 2025 project, which while unfortunate (as I would have really liked to see a new front gate), as long the front gate improvements make entry to the park better, I would much rather they use the money for an epic coaster and other park improvements.
Can you explain what a top hat is?
A top hat is an element where you go up to a high point in a sharp quick way and crest the top and go back down
Vertical hairpin turn.
Upside down U
hoping for Mack Stryker similar to Voltron at Europa - is there a chance?
Probably not due to the price of a Mack coaster + shipping, copperhead costed more than fury so logistically it doesnt make much sense. Most likely it will be a zamperla launch coaster in a similar style to the intamin launch coasters, due to cedar fairs new relationship with zamperla
Do the footings line up with any new coasters? or you think it would be custom for the park?
Definitely custom
We Stan in Intamin in this house
I know right! We Stan Intamin
you should probably remove the part between 15:02 and 15:05 where the screen flashes a lot, kinda worried for anyone with photosensitive epilepsy
Thank you, I just processed a removal. It’s processing and will update shortly. So sorry.
Looking good Wonderland! I love the new ride signage polls! I hear you talking about a top hat.. what’s a top hat?
Its a hill or inversion shaped like a top hat. You can search it up. (It doesnt actually look like one)
Top Hat is an element on a coaster
@@AmusementInsiders thanks!
@@feedmesomeseeds6172 thanks
element featured on high thrill launch coaster. It's a tall hill with vertical or near vertical sides. Picture an upside down "U". It looks like a top hat
What’s the name of the song at the very end? It’s beautiful
Always been curious, is media day just a walkabout, or do you get to ride anything?
You get to ride :)
@@AmusementInsiders Booyah!
lets goo do you think it will be a new launch coaster or something like that
Saw you today but you looked busy so I didn't say hi but love the channel
Awe don’t ever hesitate to say hey even if I’m busy. You guys are what makes this channel even possible :)
Today I saw life hill chains under the bats supports do you know what that’s about
Lift hill
Yeah, a new chain was installed on the bat and they most likely just needed to replace some parts on it. Routine mechanical maintenance
When will you be doing An update for Canada's wonderland tonight or tomorrow
Stop asking in every video
How are you here right now? I thought pass holders were allowed starting April 21st? I must have heard wrong.
Today was media day. April 21st is season pass preview day.
11:00 Bollard is pronounced "baw-lurd" (baa like a sheep). Thanks for the vids!! Keep em coming!
How did you get to go to the park today
It was media day
Hey, we saw you today. It’s me and Ari.
4:09 I was wondering about the link of the font to the ride.
7:41 A quick note about the complaints around refresh stations. It wasn't JUST that there weren't enough. It's that they were either not open enough or under-supplied for product.
Brendan are you going to wonderland tomorrow? Me and my friends are and I’m definitely going to be peeking over those fences 😅
I will be there :) and have fun exploring the construction :)
👍
👍
Are you at the park today for season pass preview?
I am :)
@@AmusementInsiders nice, same here. Maybe I'll run into you while you're filming haha
@@BattleFear33 of course, def feel free to say hey :)
@@AmusementInsiders we're in line for Leviathan. Are you wearing a black hoodie with a rollercoaster theme? I think I may have seen you lol
Awesome! Can't wait for 2024 season 😮
I’m going with the wild card but B&M’s take on the new style of launch coasters because they buy in threes right? We have Iron Menace which is the first B&M since Yukon Stryker which I think wrapped up with the gatekeeper and valraven if I’m correct.
That’s my prediction, and either the third B&M will be an invert for valley fair or a giga for worlds of fun in 2025 or 26 to line up with the World Cup will be playing within distance of the park so it’ll be on the worlds stage. Butttt knotts will be in the spotlight for the Olympics in 2028 along with MM after the merger.
Whats happening to the food in backlot cafe? Lots of Gluten free options there.
I personally think it's a flying type coaster like Manta.. to fit through that mountain but who knows... I cannot wait to see what it is going to be.😊
When will you be doing another update for Canada's wonderland tonight or tomorrow. When will you be doing a podcast on wonderland tonight or tomorrow
Love the vids ❤
Thank you so much
Love your vids
Thank you so much 😊
Whys your footage flashing
Do you have a time stamp? I’m editing it out
@@AmusementInsiders im pretty sure i havent seen anything not already spotted by the comment you pinned
@@terg8472 okay thank you, working on editing out those sections
Where is new footage went from everyday to once a week if lucky😊
I’m hoping for an Intamin like Velocicoaster. Something with a different restraint system than Behemoth and Leviathan
Apple coaster Inc. .....!!!😂
Hahaha 😂
Hey I saw you in Leviathan line :)
I saw you guys today standing by Backlot and again at the end by leviathan
Just seen you leave wonderland I tried to say hi I yelled your name lol but it was so
Cool
Just to see ya hope you had a great time hope to meet you all sometime soon
I’m back in so if you want to say hey feel free :)
@@AmusementInsiders hey if you’re still around, we are at cyclone. Would love to meet you.
@@Brendon8722 we’re just at chicken shack near there feel free to come say hey
@@AmusementInsiders coming right now
Hey we are at the chicken shack
I am praying for B&M
Really? What kind of B&M do you want?
@@AmusementInsiders first this is really cool that I’m talking to you and second I have always wanted to ride gatekeeper at cedar point but I live in Canada so a wing coaster would be really cool at Canadas wonderland and Canadas wonderland needs another thrill ride (I’ve gotten to used to riding leviathan,Behemoth, and Yukon striker like 30 times)
Ps huge fan of your channel keep up the good work 👍
And I saw the trailer you made of the wing coaster a few months ago and I went nuts because it looks insane and would be fun to ride
But what manufacturer do you want?
@@Bobtasavior5956 gatekeeper is not really thrilling, take it from someone whos been on it. the first drop can disorient you but its really relaxing after. an intamin launch coaster would be even more intense, like maverick in the same park. id say the closest you can get to a wing is the edge seat on yukon striker. it would be almost the same to the other big 3
@@terg8472 well I still want to ride it and a a wing coaster would be great at Canadas wonderland and my first ride on Yukon I sat front row on the edge of the
How was leviathan?
I didn’t actually get to ride it but it was hauling
@@AmusementInsiders Great! So exited to ride it tomorrow!
I hope it's smth like top thrill but on a smaller scale, I'm going this summer :)
But clearly it's not gonna be something like that😂 hope it's still worth it.
Wait I thought the park opens tomorrow
It does, today was media day
@@AmusementInsiders How do you get in?
@@AirplanesAndAirtime I’m on the park media list along with a bunch of other content creators
@@AmusementInsidersYou. Have arrived. :)
Yo I saw you at the leviathan entrance
Not related but very nice coat
Thank you 🙏
It’s gonna be Intamin 😎👍
🤞
5:19 it looks so different 😢
I really hope it’s a Intamin
He mustve ran out of grains of salt😁
B? Intamin Giga ??
People who where there today👇
Still hoping for a Mack
Fingers crossed for you
Let's goooo
