Being a big fan of the movie "Jaws" Bond had to have a picture
of him next to this shark. Things like this don't bring in the guests,
instead they add to the theming and help us all leave the outside world
behind once we enter the gates. I wish more parks would remember that
and add theming instead of forgetting to add it or removing it.
Ricochet was to be our second mouse coaster of the trip and the second coaster
named Ricochet.
Like the other Ricochet at Kings Dominion this ride is from Mack Rides.
Instead of being an extended mouse like the one to the north this one is
just the plane Jane standard mouse.
Don't think I'm talking this ride down because trust me it rocks.
Here's Josh, Todd, Corey (who is attempting to look like a bad a##) and
Paul getting ready to ride Ricochet.
