S:UF can be rather crowded in the morning because it's one of the closest coasters to the entrance so the GP will tend to head towards it first.

S:UF is usually a walk on by mid-day. So just wait till then.

Get to Deja Vu first.
If it dosen't open with the park...wait it out for about 30 minutes or so.
If it dosen't open, leave, but keep a good eye out for it to be running or testing the whole day.

A straight shot from station to entrance is about 15-30 minutes. With queues maybe a little more. Nothing to bad. I've waited FULL queue and it was around an hour.

I use to start on the left side of the park riding SUF then making my way around. Usually ending in Southwest or on Whizzer.

I don't like riding Vu first. I'd rather ride Viper or Bull first. Vu is a great last ride in my opinion.

Start with Vu.
Head over to Bull and ride front row before the line gets really long.
Then ride Viper back row.
BTR
V2
SUF
Vu
IW
then do w/e but ride bull or BTR for your last rides

I always go left first and do S:UF, Batman, KC, V2, IW, and AE and then you got HH, Bull and VU for the rest of the day.

start with DeJa Vu, head to Raging Bull, then Viper, Whizzer, Demon American Eagle, Iron Wolf, Superman. Hit V2 last if its open, there is never a line at the end of the daywhen I go.

Since DeJaVu is rarely open when the park opens i wouldnt waste my time going there.
I would go ride Raging Bull first, and if 3 train operation you can usually get another ride in as a walk on. After riding RB twicce i would hit Giant Drop which also should be a walk on, tha after that(usually hit it at least 2 times) i would go ride Viper.
After that head to DeJaVue if open and not a long line, or better yet go hit Batman, and coasters on the other side of the park that you like.

Ride Bull in row 9, believe me. I like it better than row 1.
1. Voyage
2. X
3. Millenium Force
4. Top Thrill Dragster
5. Raging Bull

'05 Bull: 113
'06 Bull: lost count but not a lot

^AGREED!!

If i were you, the most important thing would be NOT planning your ride order out, i've done it before and it just takes the fun away. Since the first ride of the day will most likely be the shortest wait, hit either of the three coasters that have low capacity (V2, Deja Vu, or Ragin Cajun) first. From there it a nice airtime coaster (Viper, Raging Bull, or Eagle) to get your stomach broken in. As far as Superman, wait til later in the day when the line is shortest, and as for Ragin Cajun, don't ride in the afternoon when the line is extremely hot and long. My final advice/ride order for you would be to always end your night by riding Raging Bull as your last coaster and Sky Trek Tower as your last ride!
RIP: Trailblazer and Deja Vu...heck, even Alien Encounter :(
