Join us for an evening at Kings Island’s Winterfest, where we’ll be checking out the progress on their new Vekoma Family Boomerang, checking out all the lights, and of course riding our favorite GCI coaster, Mystic Timbers! This was our first time riding it in the winter, and it was running fantastic! It made us wonder…does it run better in the cold, or in the heat?

kings island is cool
I personally prefer Thunderhead & GhostRider over Mystic Timbers
I go there a lot! I wish I could have seen you guys!
I like Kings Islands Winter fest, but it just bothers me that there are only two coasters open. I know that there are problems with the weather during winter, but at Carowinds, Fury is open, so Diamondback could possibly be open. Other than that, Winterfest at Kings Island is still amazing.
I saw you guys the night before this was recorded. Loved to finally meet you guys after being a fan for so so long!!
So this is what happens when you combine Mystic and Timber into one coaster
Kings island looks so amazing
Just realized how new this vid is😊
Kings Dominion’s Winterfest has there Drop Tower open in the cold
I have never been to this park but the Christmas event seems to be better than Alton Towers'
Just came back from Ferrari world FORMULA ROSSA WAS INSANE I LEFT MY SOUL THERE AND THE LIFT ON FLYING ACES FEELS LIKE A LAUNCH AND THE BACK IN THE DROP IS INSANE also all night rides
I didnt know coasters were open at all….
Dang great america won't even open goliath in the winter, but Kings island ill open their woodie. SFGAM only opens steel coasters for their winterfest thing. edit: They coulda opened banshee, orion, etc… B&Ms work fine in the cold. I went on raging bull and og batman at sfgam couple years ago when it was snowing.
I met you on flight of fear
I don't get how the B&Ms are closed. It can't be because of the temperature can it?
We went last year the day after Thanksgiving. Got there at 5.00 when they opened, went straight to BooBlasters and the line was just like it was here. Really wish they had FastLane available during WinterFest since the lines are unbearably long, even for rides like Scrambler and Carousel. Glad you all had a nice time despite the crowds and thanks for sharing!
I love Mystic Timbers, but The Beast is my top fave. 😊
Lots of rides are better in the cold, something about the cold wind hitting you.
I haven't watched this yet or rode that coaster yet. But like 3 years ago I went to Hersheypark Christmas candy Lane and rode the original wildcat in the cold twice and both times it was amazing. Totally smooth and enjoyable. GCIs or wooden coasters in general must ride better in the cold and or eliminates any roughness. Although I understand the coaster you're talking about doesn't normally have that much roughness to begin with! By the way i was in your six flags america superman on ride reaction bug in the face video from 2 years ago lol. I was on the train like 6 rows back. And saw you guys in the station and all. Should have said hi but didnt… Next time…
I’ve always said winterfest mystic feels faster than on a warm summer day. No clue why but it does. Also 50 degrees in December feels like summer in southwestern Ohio is practically summer.
