The First Drop: Prairie Screamer, Defiance, and Super Nintendo World

In this episode, we cover a lot of ground!  From California to Colorado and Texas, the First Drop: Part Two looks at a new coaster, a relocated coaster and a brand new themed land.   The Prairie Screamer coaster made a big move, from a defunct park in California to Texas.  ACE News Editorial Director Tim Baldwin talks to John about this screaming location change and the coaster enthusiast preview day in the coaster’s new home.     Then, Jessica talks to Amber Lightbody, ACE Rocky Mountain Regional Rep about the new Gerstlauer coaster Defiance at Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park (Glenwood Springs, CO).    We finish the episode by joining Jessica as she, Derek and Doug Perry recall their trip down a warp pipe and into Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Hollywood  (Universal City, CA).  This extensively-themed new land is getting a lot of attention, and rightfully so.       [01:20] Prairie Screamer [08:59] Defiance [22:03] Super Nintendo World   Volunteer with ACE!   Join the team of ACE volunteers.  Volunteering offers you even more opportunities to enhance the enjoyment of your roller coaster hobby by: Having an impact on the future of ACE Providing opportunities for rewarding experiences Developing friendships in a small group Learning new skills or sharing your talents with ACE Share your ideas and thoughts about this podcast via email: mailto:[email protected]   Visit ridewithace.com to learn more about the non-profit organization American Coaster Enthusiasts.   Podcast Volunteer Team  Hosts: Jessica Gardner & John Davidson Producer: Derek Perry Editor: Bob Randolph Show Notes: Liz Tan
