    I traveled all the way from Australia to ride it and it didnt dissappoint. Easily my number 1 coaster. It was hot af Park was absolutely empty thing was hauling and i just lapped it all day long laughing every time into the brake run. What a masterpiece

    I honestly don't think anything has a chance of beating I305 for me. It is EXACTLY what I look for in a ride. It's just perfect. I passed out my first ride, like fully passed out. Insane.

    That was fun! As a 40+year-old coaster enthusiast, I try to keep riding them to keep my body used to it, so we can keep riding til we're old old. I-305 was the only one that really fucked me up when I rode it in 2021, but I think I was also dehydrated and it was crazy hot (I always heard everyone like "I greyed out!" and I would call bullshit - UNTIL I rode it!). I'd try it again on a cooler day. Twisted Timbers was just awesome (and we rode later in the day). And not to make me sound old, but the first time I went to KD, half of Racer/Rebel Yell ran backwards and that backwards out-and-back woodie was the greatest sensation ever. I really wish parks would run their old woodies backwards cuz it's just awesome. (And also, having just been back to Hershey, I can't decide whether Wildcat or Twisted is better either.)

    Rode I305 several times on our visit last July, including an awesome night ride. On one ride my son had a total G-LOC, that lasted from first turn to the 2nd airtime hill.

    Finally got my first ride (of 12 rides throughout the day) on Project 305 yesterday, and I was immediately addicted. It is now my #1 coaster, pushing Iron Gwazi out of that spot. I can't say enough about how unbelievably incredible Project 305 is. I go on and on about how much I love coasters that are relentless, aggressive, insane, intense -- well, Project 305 is the Grand Master of all those things. It's such a great ride no matter where you sit -- but ultimately, I did like it best in the front row. I agree with you about how people say there is no airtime on Project 305 -- I don't understand this since I got insane amounts of airtime on all the airtime hills -- and I even got plenty of floater airtime on the first drop. By the end of the day yesterday, I had to finally stop myself from jumping back on it, so that I wasn't continuing to delay getting on the road to my next destination. Now, I can't wait to go back to the Kings Dominion in the fall or spring. Yesterday certainly made up for my trip to the park in 2023 when I-305 was closed. And in general the park was a completely different experience this time around - so much to the point that it's now my favorite Cedar Fair Park. I loved Twisted Timbers before yesterday, but now I love it even more -- and it moved up in my rankings of RMC's and coasters in general. I really liked The Grizzly a lot (it was closed as well on my visit in 2023). I thought it was a lot of fun, with a good layout and incredibly smooth -- and I love how it is encompassed by woods. As much as I previously liked Dominator, I like it even more after yesterday's ride. I believe in the past I made a mistake in saying to others that I liked Rougarou a little more than Dominator -- I realized yesterday that I had that backwards. Anyway, I'm so glad that I finally got to experience Project 305 -- it had been my #1 bucket list coaster in the US for a while -- and now, it sits comfortably as my #1 coaster.

    You did blackout twice in the back seat of I 305 selfie vid; the 1st between between 13:25 and 13:27 and the second was a three second blackout you had between 13:54 and 3:57. I wish I could afford a third trip three timezones away in one year because Kings Dominion is the best Cedar Fair park I've not yet been to and I've already done that twice this spring from Surrey B.C. Canada in greater Vancouver; one to Carowinds and the other to Kings Island. I'll get a day or two at California's Great America for my 1st time during the 1st weekend of November if I'm lucky. Thanks for posting!

  • @adammills8087
    @adammills8087 Před 10 měsíci

    I-305 seems like one of my soulmate roller coasters -- with my love for relentless, intense and aggressive roller coasters -- and it has the incredible height and insane speed too, which I love on a coaster as well. Unfortunately, on my first trip to Kings Dominion back in March, I-305 was closed all day (and until an undisclosed date), which certainly did have a strong negative impact on my day at the park since I-305 was the main reason I had gone to Kings Dominion. I still had a good enough time, with my rides on Twisted Timbers, Dominator and Flight of Fear -- but I admit that I was in a disappointed and aggravated state of mind throughout the entire day at the park. The park was empty, which was nice for getting in plenty of rides, but quite a few rides other than I-305 were closed all day as well (as were many places to eat). The park had a strong apathetic feeling to it about being open for business, which added to my negative frame of mind. It also didn't help that Pantheon was closed on the previous day -- both the coasters that were supposed to be the highlights of my trip being closed did suck. Ultimately, I had a better time at Busch Gardens on this trip, even with Pantheon being closed. I wish I didn't have the day that I did at Kings Dominion, and I had left the park feeling great (or even much better) about it. SO, I am planning to make another trip to Kings Dominion in the coming year -- certainly on a day when I-305 should be up and running. I would certainly like to make up for the disappointing day I had at Kings Dominion and hopefully change my impression that I've had about the park. Twisted Timbers certainly is a great coaster. I had a lot of fun riding it many times. Dominator is a damn good coaster. And do I dare say that I really didn't find Anaconda to be that bad. Yes, there is that whole area where it just slowly meanders about doing nothing (which is bad), but I found the rest of the ride to be pretty fun. I did like the first drop into the underwater tunnel a lot - and the inversions following it were fun. Also, I didn't find it to be that uncomfortable. While Anaconda is not a great coaster, I didn't find it to be the awful disaster that the majority of enthusiasts deem it to be. Flight of Fear was fun as hell. I rode it several times in a row, and all my rides were really good. There were a few uncomfortable transitions, but none of them were that bad. I especially enjoyed the corkscrew at the end. That was the best part of the ride for me. I love that you have I-305 as the 2nd best coaster in the world and the best in America. I trust your opinion on this. It won't surprise me if I-305 becomes my new #1 coaster when I finally ride it.

    Im susprised that people hate so much on i305. People say it is all turns and no airtime, but it probably has better airtime than any B&M hyper, and it has so many amazing forces. Its such a well rounded ride and I prefer it over SteVe.

  • @Calakapepe
    @Calakapepe Před 10 měsíci

    Try to maximize your room on the restraints for 305. The drop is next level if your restraints are roomy. They will tighten up on the pullout but the drop will be insane.

    I hate roller coasters with a passion but love kings dominion with my heart! I always go to the water park and in the tide pool I like watching the anaconda or I 305 I can’t remember which. Anyway always have a season pass for this place. Went on the grizzly and screamed and cried.
    Edit: it is i305 that I see while I’m in the tide pool!

    Update: nope, TT2 is still my top, followed by Fury 325 and then this. But they're all neck-and-neck. They're all top-tier coasters, and if 305 were a little longer, I'd have definitely put this as my number 2.

    Don't let G&G short you on sauce, or hummus! Sometimes they'll ask but not often enough. Also at Outpost, and the tartar sauce makes the fish at CK. I don't think I'd often pay it w/o dining plan except for something big enough to share though.
    Wildcat's ought to be better, started with better and added more to it. TT is great, but I think some of the high rankings for it are because it's usually easy to get plenty of rides on it!
