TR Thursday June 10

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby sfgamfan717 on June 11th, 2010, 8:51 pm
Sorry but no pictures. It was a very busy day with a ton of schools there. Got there at about 11 and already the buses were there and the line to park was all the way back to that little road on the side.

First was raging bull. we rode it once then headed over to Giant drop and then rode AE blue. Then lunch. Then we headed over to bull and rode it 6 times in a row, and once we got to reride because front row was blocking the entrcance, which allowed us to reride when there was a full quene :mrgreen: the main reason we got to reride though was because I knew the op from my last visit when they were doing trivia because it broke down and I answered each one right. Then after getting tired of waiting in a hour long line we headed to Batman and then finally Sky Trek Tower.

One thing I noticed on Raging bull is that it is very bumpy. It used to be very smooth but now its getting a little more rough than what is used to be. The worst train is defiantly teal.

Raging Bull- 7 (each time was back row!)
Giant drop- 1 (Car 21)
AE Blue- 1 (back)
Batman- 1 (front row!)
STT- 1

There's really not a single thing wrong with Raging Bull right now. I can deffinetly see them needing to do some major TLC on Bull's lap bar "padding" It's becoming old and decayed.

Well there is no denying it has gotten a little bumpier as of late. It is most noticible to me at the second turnaround before the camera.

Still is the best ride in the park though...regardless (maybe tied with Viper)

Bumpiness and Roughness are two separate things. If the coaster is bumpy, then it's not exactly a bad thing. But if it's rough, that means that it pulls you around, and hurts you.
