Meet the crew
Five people, one trailer, and a lot of coaster opinions.
We are a Canadian family of five who love theme parks, road trips, camping, and finding the next unforgettable ride. Riding With The Tism is where we share the honest side of family travel—from the excitement of a new coaster to the realities of towing a 38-foot trailer across North America.
Our goal is simple: make great memories, discover amazing parks, and help other families see what this kind of adventure can really look like.
