As Danhockey04 has said, the ride has been broke and there is a crane next to it. Did it valley again and get stuck between the loop, and the cobra roll, or is it the tower problem again? If you have any information, I would like to know and I'm sure that there might be one other person that still likes the vu. Also, is the train in the station, or not?

This is the second time this year i think. If they cant get it to work soon, they might need to take it down. But thats what i think not know. in my opinion, something like two face is more reliable.
I'm asking because of the crane. I know it breaks down a lot, but when you have a crane, it's a little different. If you have been there today, HINT da rcman and your friend, please tell me if anything is going on, and any of the other questions I asked.

I really don't think they should take down Vu. in my opinion: it's the scariest ride at sfgam. It is also very fun at the same time. Isn't that what a roller coaster is supposed to be like?
I want the sfgam survivor to be held every July and August.
Best suggestion: Install a cable lift to carry the train through the whole course so it won't valley, both forwards and back. Could you imagine how.... lame that would be.
Really though, Deja Vu is one of my top rides in the park. It is always a great time bringing someone new on it. Funny, one of my girl friends went on it for the first time last week and I kept distracting her so she wouldn't see the train do the course and wasn't paying attention... it helped that the line was pretty short.
When we got in the station, she asked if it went upside down and was serious... I was wondering how the heck she couldn't spot the loop! So I said, "No, but it kind've feels like it." My other friend and I were trying to convince her that a character pops out during the ride and to watch out for it... she seemed to somewhat believe it. She didn't expect the backwards lift where your weight is on the harness, etc... it was great... let's put it this way, probably the most amount of swears I have EVER heard while riding with someone, only to be followed with "That was so AWESOME!" at the end of the ride. No other ride can do that. And yes, all the new riders that come with me ride in the front center!
The sad thing is that it is such a great ride. I would be pro Vu if the thing was just reliable. I am getting to the point again where I would just say remove it, but I still do not see that happening.
They aren't going to take down vu. It is probably having problems or something. Or they could just be storing a crane there for constuction of the waterpark.

Why is the ride not open? You think it is having problems huh?
The ride isn't going anywhere soon.
Why would they store the crane in the park (next to a coaster that is SBNO) for the water park? It really doesn't make sense.
Standing - The ride is there
But Not Operating - The ride is closed, hence not operating.
I really don't see the issue Timmy. I really do not know what else to call it. If the ride is open then that is a different issue. I am sure the term can be used in many different examples.

Bleh, i've been thinking that since it was built...I wouldn't mind if they took it out though, although it's way too popular.
About the crane, they're probably replacing some brakes.

Why would you say bleh? Everything I posted you agree with. Actually is was basically the same post except for your theory on the brakes.
Planea - If SBNO has a new time schedual it is news to me, but I will keep using it when I see fit.
It's days are numbered, why keep a low capacity ride which 75% of all people that visit the park haven't ridden. It's ugly a waste cut the looses and look for something better. I like Breakdance and it sure would fit there nicely. The day will come when Shockvave and Vu will sit in the grave yard together.
I see my baby moving. Further details to come. Goodbye, can't talk now I'm at SFGAm.
