Kings Island Diamondback (HD B-roll)

[sdogIovers]

That is DEFIONETLY the diamondback!!! Best ride in Existance

[crossbones64]

the dive machines shake even more than that

[MrNaturerune]

This coaster feels so free, and smooth. It's a coaster all should try. couldn't keep my hands down XD

[kdderosa]

@MrNaturerune That may work too.

[TeamApparition]

@kdderosa 1. Its already beyond safe.

2. It shouldn't go any faster.

[IntaLSM]

@kdderosa Uh, no.

1. The ride is already safe. If it wasn't, it would not be open. Also, it was made by B&M, so it basically has a saftey sticker on it.

2. It would not go faster. And even if it did go faster, they would have to move all supports because all of the forces would be different. The ride is fine.

[zeabeauty101]

thats funny in the water part of the ride the person in the back get wet ;)

[coast4airtime1]

JELLO TRACK!!!

[iSpeed09]

0:06, 0:17-0:19

did the track just bend/move?!

[F18Productions]

@iSpeed09 Yes, its supposed to.

[haydensrollercoaster]

@iSpeed09 yes but its supposted to

[KaTzaNdSTuFf]

@Lchsmb2009 Dude lol. It is...I just rode it today. My first ever. I can tell you for sure this is DiamondBack. IT WAS AMAZING!!!

[Cjthecoolable]

@Lchsmb2009 Your retarted i went it even has the water thing and the same seats retard.

[jeffyjonesx]

@Lchsmb2009: This isn't Diamondback? Are you on crack? Do you think i don't know where I was?

[sclissowv]

If you think the bending of the track on a steel coaster is freaky, you should look at a wooden coaster up close =)

[Mikaylaxxx06]

i rode this about 20 times this summer and it is awesome... u will enjoy it

[FuckShepherd]

Is this a good ride? Im considering taking a trip from Toledo Next summer

[IXVision]

yes

[alexg6655]

Did you see the drop? The track bounces!

I don't think that is supposed to happen!

[IXVision]

it is.. i forgot what it adds

[WeHateThePatriots]

It's supposed to happen.

[WizeolMe]

Without the trains Diamondback has, it would just be another hyper, but these trains make it memorable. No sides, basically propped seats bolted down on a platform, so much room, restraints are comfy, no seatbelts.

The trains make all the difference.

[topthrilldragster420]

Diamondback rocks!!!!

[lilt5113]

omg did the track just move 0:03 anaways this is the best ride in the world rode it 5times

[rcpimpproductions]

Yeah, the track moved, it's designed to do that, if it didn't the thing would snap like a twig because of the force applied to it.

[bradymcclure]

yeah im goin to kings island on the 28th cause my birthdays on the 31st and im gonna ride all the rides im 8 years old love u kings island peace out !

[funkeys101]

thats a sort hill like farenheit in hersheypark but when you have 90 degree angle well its just plan fun and exciment

[PHAEDRIDER]

yep.. normall.. it's funn to watch xcellerator wobble like that too..

[gouldy317]

If steel did not bend or flex, it would simply sheer. It is designed to flex in that way.

Steel bends and flexes and this is one of it's greatest properties of strength as a construction material.

ALL Steel coasters do this.

[UltimateDBZFan2000]

Yeah the bending sort of scared me. . . That's a good thing right? I don't want it to collapse or anything while me or anyone happens to be riding it. . .

=/

[Sirfire98]

well if it didnt bend like that it would shatter so yes the bending is a great thing

[rollercoasterfan97]

hmm well actually the riders at the back do get a little wet. theres a video somewhere here on youtube of the opening day and the girls mentions after getting off the ride her sleeves got wet, cos the were in the back, but its not drenched at all.

[topthrilldragster2k3]

If it didnt bend it would break.

[rollercoasterfan97]

i really dont see that. none of the other drops have to bend it doesnt make sense im so confused. plus that drop is very un-supported, you cant argue that even if it is supposed to shake. my point is, ive NEVER seen a coaster shake like that. millennium force and ttd dont do that, and they're much taller and faster. youd have to take the mass of the trains into account. ttd;s arent as big as diamondback, but mf has massive trains. could you explain more?

[MestizoFilipino]

Man, you see how much that first drop bends when the train goes through?

[jeffyjonesx]

No, the trains aren't even remotely like those on Raging Bull. Bull has four-across seating with shorter cars.

[DReifGalaxyM31]

The trains are identical to those on Raging Bull, but a scoop is located under the last car on each train that creates the splash down.

[alex62495]

Those trains are nothing like RB, Bull is 4 across, these are B&M's new trains, take a closer look.

[tatsurider]

its like deja vu's design 2 in front 2 on the sides

[crazymagicman777]

going sunday riden it

[OKSIRYDOC]

It is just for looks it looks awesome that is all it is for...

[dejavuruready]

OMG THE TRACK ON THE DROP SHAKES! OMG THEY SHOULD MAKE ANOTHER SUPPORT TO HOLD THE DROP BETTER. omg :o

[KPfreak93]

yes, a lot of rides shake like this, but it is because of how they are designed. without the shaking, the energy from the passing trains would basically destroy the hill and the ride could fall apart. no extra supports are necessary

[dejavuruready]

Oh, thanx

[boulderdash115]

thats exactly what I was thinking. It is VERY SHAKY, but it still looks like an AMAZING RIDE I want to ride it SO BAD!!!

[Missoldrunescape]

cant wait going next weekend

[TopThrillDan]

I only waited 45 mins, and got the front seat on opening day.

[Rcfan4lyfe]

This Ride Is So Beautiful!! I cant wait to ride it this summer!!!

[SeanFlaharty]

Jeff, it was cool seeing you again on Friday. Thanks for sharing this.

[NitroGadvRules]

Wow, They really should add more supports to that drop because Nitro nor Apollos chariot Shake like that.

[rollercoasterfan97]

yeah that seems like a huge mistake from B&M...or kings island? id day B&M

i mean there arent any supports in between the ones at the top and bottom of the lift hill. it should not be shaking like that.

[tvnewsguy42]

It's supposed to do that! That's an example of great engineering. When the track is shaking, it's exerting all the thousands of pounds of forces being sent through it from the passing train.

[rollercoasterfan97]

really are you sure?

cos i've never ever seen a coaster bend or shake like this. I mean nitro is a great example of master engineering and its solid stiff. they should have more supports though

[tvnewsguy42]

Yes. If you get up real close to coaster tracks, watch carefully and you will see them bend and shake. Even Arrow's and Intamins bend and shake. Wooden coasters are a great example of this.

[omfg567]

OMG shaky!

[j2maher228]

wow that track was shaking, great vid and coaster

[DMCoasters]

Great coaster, and video!
