Well if you look while you are on the ride the pipes for water jets are there. The valve is in the off position.

Lemon Chills crap, why have that when there is plenty of SnoBiz? (although I do wish there was a SnoBiz on the east side of the park, I hate having to walk around the park to get a SnoBiz).

I went on King Chaos today and to be fast I waited 50 minutes and I knew it was running a really short program but I waited because I hadn't been on a Top Spin before, and yeah they need a new program on it or its not worth anymore then a 10 minute wait.

Went on King Chaos today but didn't get to really experience the whole thing. We were stuck at the top at the beginning of the ride for 15 minutes. At least I got an exit pass.

I think it would be better to get stuck and get an exit pass on Chaos than complete the ride

That program is blatantly designed to have water jets, and once they get them running, the ridde will seem a lot more thrilling. Oh, and just so you know, YES, there are going to be water jets... you can see them in the lower part of the pool, by the gators. There are two white tubes sticking out at exactly the right place for the ride above.

Enough with the rumors about jets, they'll either use them or not theres no reason in arguing when no one knows.

Does anyone know when the waterjets will be working? Is it a matter of just turning them on, or are they not hooked up/not working properly yet? Is there a separate program for the water jets to turn on and off? Is the reason the jets are not on yet because of the weather? Just curious.

Papas, I don't think these are rumors. There are clearly waterjets at King Chaos. You are right that whether or not six flags will use them is anyone's guess, but perhaps the ride operators know the true story.

By the way, like most modern rides King Chaos has a huge problem with fat people. After they load the cabin they have to go hunting for the fat people which the restraints don't close properly on so they have to get them off, sometimes this takes a long time and really screws things up.

Yeah it is better. I just kind of wish I could've gone on it again sometime later in the day. I guess I can wait a little longer, after all it's only a top spin :lol:
