In den 90er Jahren tobte der Krieg der Holzachterbahnen-Hersteller in den USA. Mit nicht immer sauberen Mitteln versuchen die Hersteller ihre Position zu verteidigen. In diesen Kampf hinein gründet Clair Hain jr. nach einem schweren Sturz von einer Achterbahnbaustelle sein eigenes Unternehmen. Was als waghalsige Idee im Krankenhaus entstand ist heute einer der wichtigsten Player im Markt. Von Wodan über El Toro bis Mystic Timbers kennt man GCI heute für seine schnellen, verschlungenen und wilden Rides. Wir sprechen in dieser Episode ausführlich mit Clair und seiner Tochter Olivia über die schwierige Zeit bis hin zur Gründung, über den Kampf gegen die Mitbewerber, die ersten Erfolge und den Übergang des Unternehmens zur neuen Generation.

In 2016 Kings Island announced their next roller coaster, Mystic Timbers. But not without controversy. The Cincinnati, Ohio based amusement park showed off all but the end of their 16th roller coaster. A POV simulation of the ride previewed riders through the 3,000+ twists and turns of the ride, but came to a screeching halt when they arrived at the shed. So, #whatsintheshed was created. For months, anticipation built with riders wanting to know what it could be. From a marketing perspective, rides get announced every year, but you typically, see all parts and features of these million dollar behemoths before even riding. Not with Mystic Timbers, however. 6 months of free publicity with onlookers wondering whats in the shed. #zackmillersays #rollercoaster
