You mean because now it might feel like it's... rolling and... coasting and... open? -
If you are talking about not being as rough, then yes, it won't feel the same. Other than that, you probably won't even notice any difference, in my opinion since it was a topper track to begin with. Would you notice a change on Thunderhead if they switched to I-box track? For sure. -
Really, that's not too bad. There were rumors going around at one point that it wouldn't open until summer. I'll take April, for sure.

LOTS of people and businesses are not following the stay at home orders here. Not that too many are specially saying screw all the safety guidelines (most are being as safe as possible). But, there is a lot of stuff open here that shouldn't be. Only the very large, and very visible companies are still closed. Like Theme Parks and Theaters. But all the gyms around me are open, either fully outdoor, or limiting the people inside. And most restaurants are offering outdoor seating still. But I do agree, that at some point, you have to just reopen everything with guidelines in place. And like many, many people have suggested, it might be better to enforce the rules with actual punishment Vs telling businesses to stay closed. I have thought this was a better approach from the start. The current guideline are obviously not working; it's time to try something different. -
Yeah, I think Newsome will follow Cuomo's lead on this. I don't hold out a lot of hope at seeing the parks open before late summer but there's a chance! -

This ride looks like it's going to be so much damn fun. So happy to have this locally. -
Maybe that "Recall Newsome" attempt will pass, and then you could get a Governor that doesn't hate business who will trash his "tier" system where every tier means that things stay closed. Hell, even Cuomo of NY has finally said "Hey, we've gotta reopen stuff, or there won't be anything left to reopen later." -

I am beginning to think Disneyland and other so Cal parks are not going to get permission to open this summer either unless they win some court lawsuit. They just said on the morning KTLA news that Los Angeles will not likely get to vaccinating all of the people 65 and older until June and the daily case rate is still way too high. I think it is reasonable that they refunded people's pass money instead of keeping it indefinitely. It could easily be the end of the summer before the 18 - 64 group gets vaccinated and new strains keep popping un quicker than my local pot shop. Okay, not that fast. -

I don't mind Holiday World in the rain since they keep everything open and lines will be non-existent. -

I love Kentucky Kingdom. Its not the best park around but somehow we manage to have more fun at this park then any other. Last time we visited this park is was a beautiful sunny day, and sadly the next day was Holiday World and it was down pouring and cold the whole visit. Lighting Run is easily in my top 5 favorite coasters. This little coaster packs a punch!!!!! -
Replying to a 14 year old comment, whoa. -
Couple of shots taken from across the lake, found over on the Great Adventure conn group on FB. Topping off is imminent.

Gyeongju World, Korea is year round and their B&M's have the same limit and the park warns you on the site that they won't run if you visit on too cold a day since temperatures can hit up to -4 degrees here. However nearly all the year round parks like Everland and Gyeongju run multiple snow slides to entice people in and offset the water ride/coaster closure. Even smaller parks that run year round like the Folk Village or Seoul Land set up one slope in the winter. -
Actually, it is absolutely correct. I, too, remembered FITH being different and longer, with scenes that are now missing compared to the 1970s and early 1980s. When we were there this past November (2020), I asked a ride operator, and he confirmed that the ride had been shortened from around 5 minutes to around 3 minutes by taking two major sections of track offline. -

And it's possible they order the wrong parts anyway as seen with the wheel issue on Phobia a few years ago.
