What Gary Numan did for
New Wave the same can be said for the addition of The Italian Job:
Stunt Track for Wonderland. This ride is a huge hit. The day this
ride was announced, August 2004, Adam knew exactly that
"Cars" would be the perfect song for this video.
It was extremely difficult to capture POV of the Parking Garage
Helix because of the 'g' forces exerted on the camera lens. Song: Cars - Fear Factory feat. Gary Numan

The Just
Coasters video below just gives you a teaser of this 1995
Vekoma Suspended Looping Coaster (SLC). To remedy this situation
Adam's added his fifth video to the Virtual PCW Guide. So come
along and experience every twist, turn, and loop on PCW's Top

This maybe a first... there
are lots of theme park videos out there but are there any that
just concentrate on the kids area of a theme park? Didn't think
so. Well look no further as Adam takes you on a video adventure
through PCW's Hanna-Barbera Land, Nickelodeon Central,
Kidzville, and Zoom Zone. Song: Happy Boys and Girls - Aqua

PCW added
Tomb Raider: The
Ride as their thirteenth roller coaster in 2004. Come along for
ride on Canada's first flying coaster. This is Adam's third
video that he has added to the site. Okay! We will be honest
with you. Tomb Raider is not one our favourite rides at
Wonderland. You might be able to pick that up from the video...

The second general video covering the park. This time Adam Reid
uses footage from the 2004 season. Nolan is caught on tape
playing "Nicky Nicky Nine Doors" at Cyber Sez and don't miss his best
impression of a coaster enthusiast at the end of the video. Song: Taste The Summer - Duran Duran

This video was a long time in the making. We had the music
chosen in advance and had lots of ideas in our heads for this
video. While vacationing on PEI during the summer of 2003 we
drew the opening credits in the sand and among the waves at
Cavendish Beach.

Would you like to come along for quite possibly the best
suspended roller coaster in the World? If so click the link
below. Vortex is the easiest roller coaster in the park to photograph with its wide open location behind Wonder Mountain. One of
our most favourite roller coasters and one that we can not get enough of. Song: Save Yourself - Stabbing Westward

One of the first videos posted to the site. Unfortunately at the
time we did not have much video footage and filled the early
2002 videos in with
still photos. Be sure to check out some of the other videos for
more Psyclone video footage.

Shockwave was our first video that we used Pinnacle Studio 8 to
create and really our very first official video posted to PCW Junkies.
Shockwave was new for the 2001 season and none of the Reids were
brave enough to try it until 2002. Song: Everlong - Foo Fighters

This Ghoster Coaster video along with the Dragon Fire video and
The Bat video below were posted for a very short time on the
site back in late 2002. These video were put together with
Arcsoft Video Impressions and for the most part we were just
playing around. Nolan and Kevin put this Ghoster coaster video
together with one of Nolan's favourite songs at the time.

This Dragon Fire Video was our second try at video editing. This
was before we purchased Pinnacle Studio 8 and Adam and Kevin
tried out quite a few video transitions. Thanks again to Grant
Taylor from The Salads for permission to use their song.

This is a just a very short video of The Bat. We originally
saved all three videos (this and the two above) in the "mpg"
format but were not able to pull the raw "avi" footage into
Pinnacle and convert to a windows media file. But we figured it
was time to re-post these back onto to site to show how we got
started into this video thing. Originally posted October 27,

The Reids were approached by Primitive Entertainment to help
them out with a series they were producing for History
Television... Things That Move. Who better than the Reids
to help out with Wonderland and roller coasters? This half-hour
Roller Coaster episode first aired on the Canadian History
channel in October 2005. We are only showing the part of episode
that we participated in. For a Photo Trip Report on our day

The CNE or "The Ex" is Toronto's annual exhibition since 1879.
Since moving to Ontario in 1996 this 2005 visit was only our
third visit to the CNE. Adam took along his Sony DV camera with
him and captured most of the Conklin Midway rides and has added
his second DV video. Song: My World [Andy Moore Mix] - Luminary

Take a peak at Adam's first video using his new Sony DV
camcorder. This is the second video featuring PEI's Old Home

Home Week is The Gold Cup and Saucer Harness Race which is
the premier harness horse race in Eastern Canada. Enjoy! Adam

If the Reids were asked "What is your favourite park outside of
Wonderland?" the answer is easy... Paramount's Kings Island.
Since 1998 we have made many trips to this park 800kms from our
home. We didn't have too much video footage but Adam has done
another great job for his sixth video. We never go to PKI unless
our very best friend John "Shaggy" Keeter meets us there. See
John and Donna do the "chicken dance" and Nolan doing his best
impression of the Janitor from the lost Phantom Theatre.

We actually started with the song on this one first and knew it
would be perfect for a park with a Ferris Wheel. This is also
Adam's first video posted to site and also the first one done
using Adobe's Premiere Elements. Sandspit is a small amusement
park in the heart of Cavendish's Tourist country. A great place
when the Reids are suffering from coaster withdrawal while
visiting our relatives in PEI. Song: I Really Love You - Ian Thomas

on PEI. Campbell Amusements have taken their show there since
the mid 1990's. A vast improvements over the Bill Lynch Midways
that was there for years. To see an updated 2005 version check
