Ukuhlaziywa kweCoaster Coaster kwiFolt Farm yaseFernott
Xa abantu baseCedar Fair (abaqeshwe ngokukhawuleza abasebenza kwiCedar Point yaseOhio ) bathenga i- Knott yeBerry Farm ukusuka kwintsapho yaseKotott ngasekupheleni kweminyaka yee-1990, enye yezinto zokuqala abazenzayo yile nto abayazi kakuhle: Bakha i-ass . I-GhostRider idibanisa ikharityhulam yendabuko ye-woodie kunye nokuvalelwa komshini womhla wamanqaku amnandi, kwaye inika i-airtime-full-control-in-control (in good, coaster coach way), kunye nokuhamba ngokukhawuleza.

Ngomzila we-ratic yellow-pine, "imoto yam" izitimela, kunye ne-Old-West ekhutshwe kwisikhululo sokulayisha, i-GhostRider ihambela ngqo kwi-Ghost Town ye-Knott yaseBerry Farm. Heck, inokuba negama elithi "Ghost" egameni layo.
Umgca wokugqithisa ugqityiwe ngokugqithiseleyo ubeka abagibeli kwi-maze-back maze-nqanaba lomhlaba we-"GhostRider Mining Company". Emva kokubuya emva nangaphandle, abagibeli bayakhuphuka isiteji sezitebhisi ukuya kwindawo yokulayisha enye inqamaniso yomgca we-rat-fun. Ngenxa yokuba iGhostRider yinto enjalo (efanelwe) i-coaster ethandwa kakhulu, lungele ulinde ixesha elide, ngokukodwa ngexesha leentsuku ezinobungakanani epakini. Kwaye ke, lungele uhambo olukhulu.
Isitimela sishiya kwisikhululo, umda ukuya kwingqungquthela edlula umgca wokulayisha, kwaye iphakamisa intaba yokuphakamisa.
Ukugqwesa kwendlela yokukhwela ngowokuqala, inqaku-eligqibeleleyo, u-108-foot footed drop. Ukubongela abamelwane nokunciphisa ingxolo, uKotott wayegubungela umxhasi ngesitya sensimbi. Nangona igalela imibono yabagibeli, i-canopy yongeza kwi-Mystique ye-GhostRider eyahlukileyo yaye ngokuqinisekileyo ibonakala ikhulisa ubungqina besitimela se-clanking kunye nokukhwaza kwabagibeli.
Andiqinisekanga ukuba ngaba mmelwane bepaki bayenza ntoni.
Ghostly Airtime
Isandla sokushiya ngokukhawuleza siphendulela ngaphantsi kwelahla kuvelisa i-twinge yomoya. Iinduli zekamela ezilandelayo zikhupha umlambo womoya . I-GhostRider ke i-meanders ngokusebenzisa uluhlu olumnandi lwezitshintshi eziphendulelayo ezivelisa ezinye iziganeko ezimangalisayo ezingaphandle kwexesha lakho. Iingxenye zebhanki zengoma zivelisa i-Gs engezantsi ezinikezela ngobuninzi be-oomph, kodwa zenze uguquko olucothayo (ngokungafani namanye ama-coasters apho i-Gs enamandla kakhulu iyakwazi ukufikelela kumda wokuhlushwa). Yilokho i-woodies enkulu malunga nayo.
Igama lokulumkisa malunga nemikhosi yaseburhulumenteni ye-G: Ulungele ngcono inkampani yeqabane lakho lomtshato. Nangona abahluleli beentloko, iinqwelo zeendwendwe zibangela ukuba abagibeli badibanise.
Eyakhelwe ngasemaphethelweni kaKernott waseBerry Farm, iGreatRider isebenza njengekhadi elikhulu lokubiza ipaki. Phantse okwesithathu kwendlela yokukhwela iyaphuma ngaphandle kwipropati. Enye yezinto ezihamba ngayo iwathatha abagibeli ngaphaya kweGrade Avenue kwaye ibe yintoni eyasetyenziswa ukuba yindawo yokupaka. Izitimela zizondeza eduze kweeNkwenkwezi zikaKnow Kncken Dinner kunye neevenkile kwi-Beach Avenue.
U-Knott uthi uhambo luhamba kwemizuzu emibini, kodwa luvakalelwa kakhulu. Oku akutshoyo ngendlela engafanelekanga; I-GhostRider yintonga ukusuka ekuqaleni ukuya ekupheleni.
Ukubuyiswa kweNtlawulo
Ekuqaleni eyakhiwe ngama-coaster ama-coaster mavens kwi-Custom Coasters International (umvelisi wavala isitolo sawo ngo-2002), ukukhwela kugcina isivinini somoya kunye namandla kuze kube yilapho i-freake yokugqibela ibuyele kwisikhululo. Eyaziwa ngokuba yi-physics-defying voodoo, i-CCI i-coasters ibonakala iyithatha isivinini kunokuba iphoxiswe kwimimiselo yokugqibela njengamashishini amaninzi amanandi. I-GhostRider ngumzekelo oyintloko wobuciko beCCI.
Xa kuqala kuvuliwe ngo-1998 kunye neminyaka emininzi emva koko, i-GhostRider yayidunyiswa njengendlela enkulu yokukhwela ngabadlali abanomdla kunye namanye amafestile afanayo. Njengoko kwabaninzi abakhi beemithi, abazange baphelele kakuhle kwaye ekugqibeleni baba yingozi kakhulu. Ngethamsanqa, uKnott akazange akwazi ukuyeka umoya. Esikhundleni salokho, yavala ukuhamba ngo-2015 ngenxa yokubuyisa imali efunekayo.
Inkampani yokukhwela, i-Great Coasters International, isuse yonke indlela kwaye ithathe indawo yayo, iphinda ichaze ezinye iindawo zomzila, ize ithathe indawo yezitimela.
I-GhostRider yavulwa kwakhona ekuvuyiseni okukhulu ngo-2016. Amava okukhwela alula kakhulu kunokuba ayekudala kwiminyaka yokugqibela ngaphambi kokuba ihlaziywe. I-still has a character coaster coaster ivakalelwa kukuba abalandeli bepaki banqwenela, nangona kunjalo. Isihlalo esivela ngasemva, ngoku ngoku, sinika uhambo olumangalisayo, olusendle nolulwandle. I-GhostRider iphinda ibe yinye yee-coasters zeenkuni zelizwe.
