- Fun Spot America- Orlando is an amusement park just down the road from the Universal Orlando Resort. This park features several multi-level go-kart tracks and a trio of roller coasters, including White Lightning (GCI wood coaster). This park evolved from a standard FEC into a full-fledged amusement park over the past decade, and now it's the perfect nightcap on an Orlando trip.

I can't speak for other Fun Spot employees, but they treat me like gold. I never feel taken for granted, marginalized or less than. The owner and higher ups put in work just like the regular team members. In fact, we were building a Tilt-A-Whirl 2 weeks ago in Atlanta and the owner was right there with us operating the heavy equipment and putting in wrench time to get the job done. He's all in, all the time. Fun Spot is a fantastic place to work and they don't skimp on pay and perks. It's hard, hot work (that's why it's work), but it can still be a blast! I sometimes want my days off to end so I can go to back to work. I know that's not exactly the point of your video, I'm just trying to add a bit of insight.
The employees are pretty good.
I hope more Fun Spot parks pop up around the country. I am a sucker for Go-Karts and they did not disappoint. White Lightning was a fun little GCI and wonderful for any small park. I didn't do the Skycoaster, those are rides that will make me crap my pants.
Me too.
The go kart tracks are more aggressive with their slopes at the other fun spot, but this fun spot has higher quality attractions in general and MUCH better of a woodie than the other one. I also prefer the 2nd coaster at this park than the wild mouse at the other one. This fun spot is much better and you get better value here!
Fun Spot Kissimmee has my favorite track in the chain with Vortex.
I’m a sucker for kissamee, the kids liked Orlando more though. Beers cost less at fun spot than the gas station across the road
Did you know that Fun ‘N Wheels Orlando has one roller coaster, Black Hole, a B. A. Schiff Wild Mouse coaster relocated from Lakewood Park in PA?
That's cool!
I haven't been to any fun spot parks, but I will say going to an amusement park for 2-3 hours at the end of the day after lots of fun somewhere else is always a good way to end the day. Did that about a week ago with Cedar Point after spending time at Put In Bay
Makes sense!
Fun Spot seems good about posting on their social media when the wooden coasters close for refurbishment.
That's good to know they post it there. I usually look on the main website by default.
@@CanobieCoaster Their social media in general is good. Responsive too.
If I lived in Orlando, I'd be getting season passes for the family for this place. Looks like the perfect type of park for me and my family.
It's great to bounce into for an hour or two.
Literally just got finished watching this video. Saw my notifications and airtime thrills uploaded. so I went to go watch his video and going behold you appear in that video.
It's a Small world after All.
It was pure coincidence we ran into each other at Valleyfair.
So much to do in Orlando! This park is a perfect fit. One love to see a Fun Spot in the Houston area.
I'd like to see more too.
I love this park the only down fall is the go karts smell like gasoline and the arcade there is horrible but I love the rollercoasters the wooden one is my favorite and the sky coster is scary but super fun I recommend this park to all ages
The gasoline smell is not ideal.
I thought I was the only one who felt that Mine Blower was even rougher this year. I was able to handle a few rides on my prior visit, but one ride a few weeks ago was more than enough. I don’t even usually dislike rough coasters either.
It was disturbingly rough.
CAN-O-BEAST!! My man!
Huss Enterprises are my favorite flat rides ever
They're solid.
Great Vid, always refreshing to see a place to hit up later in the evenings, especially for those who work until 9 or 10 like myself. Loved your cameo on Airtime today lol. Big fan of you two both
I agree it's great for the night.
I had gone on a quieter day, there were Maby 30 people in the park. The commander track ran for 13 minutes.
Nice!
I once planned to go here after Islands of Adventure, but White Lightning was down for maintenance so I opted out. I'm sure it is a solid small park.
That's a bummer it was down.
This is such a great small place for coming if you want to spend some cash after a day of work or something. A GCI that I kinda found overrated but is still very cool how they fit it in, a Vekoma Suspended coaster, the go karts are also fun cause the ygo a half decent speed, and the best part is they have a revolutionary legend that should never of been leaving the industry, and that's the enterprise, great job for keeping that thing going.
They do have some older flats.
When I put if did you prefer the Orlando park or the Kissimmee park, I was asking you that in all those years, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022?
The Kissimmee location in every year except maybe 2021 or 2022 when Mine Blower was at its roughest.
I am hoping to get here when we go to orlando but i need to get perms from my parents even though im paying for my own ticket. I think i will come here for the nights endcap.
I wasn't able to get here until I had my own car. My family always wanted to spend time at the bigger parks.
What do you think, in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022, when you visited both the Orlando park and the Kissimmee park, did you like both parks and visits in all those years and which one did you prefer?
I usally prefer Kissimmee.
I also now prefer the Orlando location. Hurricane is a nice # 1 coaster for Kissimmee, but White Lightning is better. Their season pass sale around Thanksgiving has been a great deal. Their late hours and short lines made that season pass a no-brainer. It makes for a great ending to a day at a big Orlando park.
I agree White Lightning is the chain's best (operating) coaster currently.
I liked fun spot Orlando but really need to get back. I only got the creds and left because it was May of 2020 and over 104F.
Wow!
Sorry I have not watched your channel at all in the last few weeks, congratulations on meeting Airtime Thrills. You do look like a mix between him and Aaron Rodgers.
It was pure coincidence we ran into each other at Valleyfair.
"Fun Spot Action Park ... not affiliated with the one in New Jersey (WE SWEAR, YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE US!)"
I can see why they changed the name.
True!
I could see myself visiting both this park and the Kissimmee location on one day as they both look like half day parks rather than full day parks.
I think there's a combo pass still between the two.
@@CanobieCoaster Yeah, you can go to both parks in the same day for an additional $10 if you already have a single day pass for one of the parks. That's still an option.
I hope the enterprise reopens. It has been closed for months. This is one of my fav parks in Orlando. I got 6 front row rides on white lightning in 115 degree weather so I got perfect rides. It’s my favorite wood coaster. I will always go back when I go to orlando
I imagine it can't be easy to maintain given its age.
@@CanobieCoaster yea and it's reloaded from over georiga plus it's a schwarzkopf which wenet produced as much as the huss ones
Saw you on airtime thrills video
It was pure coincidence we ran into each other at Valleyfair.
Anyone know how long the enterprise has been closed for? Its been closed all my visits, with my first in october 2021
Not sure, sorry!
I've been to the Kissimmee park a few times, but most of time would just be to take a walk around because my family never prioritizes it after doing the other orlando parks. I did get to ride the go karts once tho, it was really fun!
The carts are fun at these parks.
Is the Vekoma the same layout as the Pheonix at Coney Island?
Same model, but different layout.
I’ve heard you refer to ArieForce One as a hybrid coaster in a few videos, but isn’t it just a straight-up steel coaster?
I thought RMC is using wood and steel supports on that one?
@@CanobieCoaster I just went on their site and looked at the construction photos, so far it looks like only steel has been constructed
They're also not advertising it as a hybrid, which would be odd since that's a pretty big selling point in and of itself these days
@@CanobieCoaster I think it's 100% steel, but I'd be happy to be corrected if they're indeed using wood. After reviewing the photos, it looks like all steel to me, but also it's all painted white and it wouldn't surprise me to hear there's some wood in there.
Imagine If We See A another Fun Spot In California But Prices Could Get Higher When They Build
I would love to see more of these parks.
Mine blower > white lighting
Layout wise, yes.
Hey-I think I saw you at Valleyfair on June 10, Were you in line for wild thing around 5-6Pm?
I was at Valleyfair that day, but I rode Wild Thing around 2-3 and right before closing.
Question how much is the go kart
I think it's about $10 for one ride.
Thanks @@CanobieCoaster my family and I are going so I'm looking up some good spots 😉
BREAKING NEWS: according to screamscape, Bosque Magico theme park in Mexico just announced on their Twitter that they will be permanently closing on August 28 of this year.
I saw! I bet Zombie Coaster gets relocated.
@@CanobieCoaster I wonder where it will go. It would be a prime pick up for a small US park. Also isn't that Batman the Ride clone that used to be Kuwait up for sale too?
@@CanobieCoaster Also, in old orchard maine, palace play land had opened their new ride for 2022, that being a cliff hanger carnival ride. Also as a side note, the park has also removed their cascade falls log flume, what do you think could replace it?
boring spot when
I enjoy it.
