WE bparded the busses at the school at 8:15 and got to the park a little after 10. We ran to RB and tried so hard to ditch the camera people but I guess they get a thrill when they hit the little button.
Raging Bull (1st ride)- WE got into line and not even 5 min. Got the back left seat with my two friends. Very good ride smooth and more airtime in the back than usual.
Deja Vu (1st ride)- Deja Vu was nearly a walk on. Roughly 8 min and nothing happened. We got on i left my harness loose 2 clicks as a dare, very very loose ride. Overal good ride.
Demon- Walk on, into the second car. The ride was lirrle jerk on the lift but the loops and corkscrews were'nt giving me a headache. We got 3 a three ride marathon. We got bored. Onto the next coaster.
V2- It was pretty much a walk on. Third row. THe little seat belt thing on the harness was killing my wrist! It was great ride, the were running it with one less cycle than normal. Decent ride.
Stargate 3000- A corny little ride. I just went on it because i needed to sit down. I didnt really undertsand it. The story line was all over the place.
Raging Bull (2nd ride)- This time we had an actual wait. Roughly 30 min with one turn-style in the queue house. Back row left seat. Left it open 2-3 notches. Awesome airtime.
SUF- It was between this one and my 2nd ride on RB for the lonegst wait. We got the second row and for the first time I thought my legs were gunna cum out. I heard change flying out on the pretzel. 30-60 min wait. Decent ride. More G's on the pretzel than usual.
V2 (2nd ride)- 3rd row again. The brake seem to be held longer than last time. The seatbelt thing was starting to give me a bruise! 10-20 min wait.
BTR- Today it did seem like it was running faster than normal. We got the front row and my hair was storken back when we got to the station. 10-25 min wait. Awesome ride.
Deja Vu (Second ride)- This time my harness was very very VERY loose! It was freaky. I was in the front to add to the freakiness. Great Ride, 23 min wait (I found my watch!)
V2 (3rd ride) This was the last ride of the day. I got the front and the holding break took forever to let off. Good ride. 3 min wait.
Other notes: Before my 3rd ride on V2, we saw RC testing and they were letting employees on it. I asked the security guard if I could be a test dumbie, he gave me a crazy look. That thing will be insane. Also King Chaos and Big Easy Balloons were not running. KC was using its fountains though, and it wasnt running....... At the end of SG 3000 you know how they say.."You are now official members of the Stargate 3000 Team"? Well after the ride I was screaming that on the top of every coaster. And we annoyed the crap out of people on Demon screaming...(we only did this in the tunnels) "HOLY CRAP I JUST SAW TONY DANZA!!"

Careful! Everytime I go up that first tower I feel like I'm gonna fall off. Your best bet is to fasten both your seat belt and restraints as tight as can be. Great ride, but long line and not always in operation.
How did you feel when you went up the second tower? Me? I almost black out.
R.I.P. Splashwater Falls and Space Shuttle America. Deja Vu, enjoy Idaho.
Hear ye, hear ye: "After 45 years, Six Flags has stopped smoking."
I feel like im gunna balck out. And I also always feel like im gunna fall out. But the funny part is remeber you have another seatbelt on to. The 2nd time on Deja Vu it FELT loose I didnt MAKE IT loose.
On Deja Vu leaving your OTSR up 2-3 notches just sounds purely painful. With that seatbelt tight it has to hurt your waist when the train is cought the second time on the first tower.

in my opinion being stapled on that ride is scarier than having it loose (I trust the seatbelt more than the restraint, lol).
Although I do make sure they are both tight.
^Same here papas. Seatbelts safer than OTSR's lol On the holding brake on V2 my friends balls slipped under the harness and got crushed..I heard him screaming the whole ride. OWW

Technically if he wouldn't be screaming the entire ride. The holding brake is on the last cycle so he would only be screaming for about 1/4 of the ride.

Do yourself a favor and don' try to notice things like that, as they push down lightly then pull up on every coaster (mainly depends on how the ride op was braught up and trained).

On Raging Bull it won't matter because the train can't dispatch unless all the restraints are locked the minimum amount which is being able to see the red line.
Yes, they pushed down as far as they could when I went 2 weeks ago or something like that. Also, what's up with Viper's lapbars not going down all the way? Mine was atleast 6 inches high and it wouldn't go down any farther, but I was not worried!
