And a little off topic but at least I feel this way every time I go there, do you feel 'safe'? Like on the rides? It just feel like the staff does not care at all, I remember once I was stuck on Cyclops break run and staff had absolute no idea what to do and people just started to let themselves out... Anyone have these types of stories from here?

My first ride on my first visit (2010) there was Zeus, which ripped my big toe nail up. That was not bad, the issue was the "first aid." She had no idea what sterile meant and then proceeded to touch my bloody toe with no gloves on or washing her hands. Day continued with them spraying oil on Hades while the ride was running, which landed on guest who walked under the track. The operator of Opa was letting guest runs the ride for run but why not. To top it off employees were walking along the inside part of the spirals on the go-karts and proceeded to get hit. All of that and they still wouldn't let me ride the kiddie coaster of death for safety issues.

It was actually a great ride in front. I do agree that the trains kill the airtime, but they are so comfortable, open, and roomy that this will be forgiven. The tunnels are still killer and the new section is amazing! Still not as smooth as an RMC topper, but a great effort nonetheless. Any seat besides the very front was painful, especially moving toward the back. The very back row is simply not a good experience by any means. Check out this video I filmed while there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKRDuKyJKS0&feature=c4-overview&list=UUqxb8oI7ySMRlhapN3_R4Bw
