Dejavu Miscatch on Video

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.

I found this cool video of a catchcar failing to hold Vu's train on the way up the first tower. This results in a valley.

I forgot I didnt even finish the video. Then I saw it was sfgam world. Ok sorry about the repost of this.

BTW, who is that at the end of the video with the face?

And my favorite quote from that video: "Dutch piece of crap"

Oh thats Dave. I read that on the bottom.

Note the lost or seperated spiel that comes on right after the miscatch. That was good timing. :lol:

Cool video. I've always wondered what happened when DejaVu miscatches.

It's just been happening recently. Before, in this year it wasn't miscatching at all. Maybe, one time I have seen it. :?

On Wednesday I saw it miscatch when I was getting on the Demon. The ride-ops said it was miscatching all morning. After the last one they closed it for the day. :(

That's cool. I've never seen Deja Vu miscatch before.
