i used to go there when i was about 13/14 a lot. great time and enjoyed myself thoroughly. from what i recall it is a great place to meet 13 and 14yo girls, but i'm hoping you've moved past that.

The last time I went it was still called "Emerald Pointe". I guess Wet 'n Wild bought them out at some pointe.

i love the wave pool and if you stand near the corner by the lifeguard, the wave creates a vortex and everyone swirls up and you get all busted up and shit. usually get into some fights too.

When i was a freshman in HS I had a season pass to EP one summer. I went like every weekend. I haven't been there since though, so I am sure a lot has changed.

^ shit yeah. But I heard they rarely crank up the waves enough to make the vortex anymore. back when I used to go a lot there were always mad injuries near those corners

if by fights you mean inappropriate grabbing of girls asses then yes. i never saw a fight except for those that were proceeded by a girl slapping a guy for grabbing her ass and/or tits during his flailing in the vortex.

I was there last Sunday for a DAYCATION.

It was fun. There are a lot of girls there over 18. There are a lot of trashy people too. Bring a cooler and drink in the parking lot because the beers inside are expensive. Carrying a tube up a bunch of slides gets tiresome. The picture posted is the best ride IMO.

last time I went, I was going down one of the slides and ran smack into this little kid that decided to stop himself in the middle of the slide


and that dude is either standing in the shade or has a very hairy upper back in that pic

Last time I went to a waterpark was at the carowinds one like 4 years back

There was a fat guy stuck in a tube slide...I run into him, but he didn't move, and they wouldn't let other people go since they hadn't seen us come out. So im kicking him trying to unwedge him, and he's yelling at me to stop, and this goes on for about 30 seconds, till I finally pry him lose, and we both go down at the same time on top of each other into the pool below...when we get out he's all pissed like "fucking black asshole" but I just loled

yeah he had his shirt on ( another fat people fave) and I thought it might've been caught on a peg or something

but it was just his thigh was so huge it was torqued against the wall and he couldn't generate enough force to push off on his own

I hit him at like 30 mph, like Liu Kang, and he didn't move until I used both feet using the wall for leverage

Dare Devil Drop is my second favorite ride. The skycoaster is better and it was only $12 to ride when I went in 1999. Most places charge about $25 at least to ride those. The problem is that once you ride those, nothing else is fun in the park.

FYI, the zipline was called Pirates Plunge. And I just now found out that it is gone.

It was awesome because they would yell "drop" when you were supposed to drop off. But we would never drop, we would just hang there. We would hang there to the point that the lifeguard would start shaking the line and shit to try to get us off.

My friend is in the splash contest every year some time in July. He is like 350lbs and has an above ground pool in the backyard that he "practices" in. The above ground pool makes it so the water goes all over the yard.
