  • A rainy day walk around Six Flags Darien Lake, a large amusement park in Western New York. Crowds were light and it was raining on and off while I was there. Some of the notable rides at Darien Lake include the Superman Ride of Steel hypercoaster, Predator wooden coaster, Viper steel looping coaster, Tantrum Eurofighter, the nutty Moose on the Loose and some Vekomas which are crap.

    Most Americans were already back in school by Aug 30 so it makes sense as to why it was so dead on a rainy midweek day.

    Good day, Johnny Strides, thanks much for this & what a nice & dismal day to be touring around on the US side of things! Nice to see that side of the world albeit no far from Niagara Falls, Ontario! Glad you enjoyed it when you were younger, & you are still a kid at heart! Hope you had fun!! Cheers & keep safe!! 🥰🥰🦅🦅

    17:54 B&M's coasters are FANTASTIC. SOOOOOO smooth. Every one of their coaster types I've been on has been great. I particularly enjoyed Gatekeeper at Cedar Point.

    • @JohnnyStrides
      @JohnnyStrides  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      They are but... I think I much prefer Intamin hypers. I've been on just 3 but they just bring the intensity in a way B&Ms can't (they're all fantastic though lol).

    • @JewishMusicToronto
      @JewishMusicToronto 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @JohnnyStrides I got my first taste of Intamins at Kings Dominion, on Intimidator 305 (so, a Giga, technically). I loved the intensity. But I rode Twisted Timbers the same day (as well as all of the other coasters in the park) and immediately fell in love with RMCs.
      Intamin makes FANTASTIC coasters, just the same. Maverick and Millennium Force are out of this world.

    I haven't been to Darien Lake in 22 years, live about 30 minutes away. I've been watching a lot of videos on it this summer and they really haven't added a lot since then, but a number of attractions have been taken away. It's a shame the current owners don't want to put money into the park to expand it. In the late 90s-early 00s when they kept adding new things Darien was always packed.

    • @andrewdonohue1853
      @andrewdonohue1853 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      the less they invest in darien lake the more it will dwindle and eventually die. i live in wyoming county, and i rememer how it was when i was a kid. when i was little all there was, was predator and viper. then they started adding, and stopped some time ago

    8:56 Some of Cedar Fair's other parks have some interesting classic loopers that were follow-ups to the original Corkscrew, but I still prefer Dragon Fyre. Guess I'll have to check this one out if I get the chance to visit Darien Lake.

    Ahh good old Darien lake, you were not that far from me! Seen breaking benjamin and chevelle there. The predator back when i went there was a pretty rough ride and they tried to smooth it out, not sure what more you can do with a wooden one lol

  • @JadeEverduske

    The single train operation is active throughout the year. Was the most asinine decision they have ever made and makes wait lines ridiculously long during peak times.

    I wish you would have filmed you on the Steel rollercoaster right at the front. Gloomy day but makes for quick access to the rides. It was a bit sad that the Batting Cage seems to have gone the way of the dinosaur now...TY

    @JoniMitchell-qi6hr 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    This is why one must obey height,age and weight restriction's and operator's must exercise these rules for safetyAs sad as that info was For those of us that were ignorant of that tragedy that took that disabled veteran's life It is a good thing you made it common knowledge for any amputee's attempting the same sort of ride in the future Who would then choose another "safer ride"❤

    If the food is FAB then its worth the price but not for Wings😮I would backpack a couple of meals and only buy a treat At those expensive prices not smart Not everyone goes ON RIDES! Sometimes we just pay for them but it sure would BE GREAT! To enjoy a decent priced meal and a beer or cocktail At the end of the day
