This ride is the greatest wooden roller coaster ever and I have rode many.

what do you mean:  'trim'?

[Exhalent]

Trim brakes are breaks used to slow down a train to a specific speed that the park sets. Without them, the train goes faster, obviously. With the Mean Streak, they do not want to replace sections of the track with much strain, so they place some trim brakes on it to make it slower with less strain on the track.

thanks i thought it was something like that

It's even worse this year! Man, I remember riding it when I was in 1st or 2nd grade ( I'm in 10th now) and saying, "oh, here's that long stretch, they slow you down a little" (the brake shed). Now, its everywhere. Down the first hill, the second hill, brake shed, and down the second lift. I know that there were always trims there, but you would never notice them. So sad!

[Exhalent]

I know that whenever there are coaster conventions, they often turn off trims, in my local parks at least. Sigh, we can only hope they do not remain to do this to such a classic coaster.

Trim ???

[icanhack]

Lol. Trim brakes, they slow down the ride.

[austinjb555]

They trim it WAY too much now, it sucks!

[Exhalent]

Speaking of trims, just look at what they did to Mean Streak a few years ago.

[austinjb555]

Hmm. I live in Cincinnati, and I've been to CP once, but I didn't get a chance to ride it. I don't know what you mean, but obviously a lot of trimming. BRING BACK PARAMOUNT!!!!!

So true austin, as a long time rider I feel a twinge of sadness every time I ride the Beast. The ride is a shadow of its former self, the only part that remains unscathed is the finally. HELL they have added breaks on the second freaking hill!!! Seriously, when you go up the second lift look to your right and you'll see them on the track, its ridiculous. Still my favorite ride ever, but come on!!!!!! They replaced airtime with brake time WTF!!!!!!
