Title: Dania Beach 5/31/09
Post by: Robert T Ackerman on June 01, 2009, 07:24:12 PM

So on the 30th I decided we'd go down to Dania Beach the next day since we missed out on HWN. Myself, Todd Bills and Steve Nuss took a 4 hour drive, turned it into 3.

We had plans to stop at Uncle Bernie's to get credits and a ride on the Techno Jump (CH CH CH CH CH as it's also called). Turns out we got there an hour late since they closed at 6.

After we wasted our time there, we ran off to Boomers.

We had the coaster to ourselves most of the night. I was a bit disappointed in it though, it was much rougher than my last rides on it. The only seats with any "fun" in them were the first 3 rows, I took most of my rides in row 1.3. We rode for about 2-2.5 hours and then drove back. I hope they decide to put some TLC into this ride because it can be fantastic, unfortunately it's a 6 at best now. It gave awesome airtime, almost Riverside Cyclone Back seat air, only in the front car. Here's some pics that I took with my phone through the night...

I still don't get why it's $30 for 9 rides, and $12 for unlimited... seriously, who would pay for that?  :)

Thanks for reading!

You'd pay $40 for 9 rides as apposed to $12 for unlimited?
