I am convinced that it is a really great ride if you let it be what it is and not what you wanted it to be (which maybe never even was intended).
In Andreas latest blog post he speaks about his nervousness and uses the words "I can only see the deficiencies, that which is not perfect".
I believe this applies to you as well. If you were to ride it with a blank page, not comparing the heartline roll to bluefires, not having a preconceived perception of the intensity, not having flied along the tracks a million times in your head, you would be blown away.
I hope that bitter taste will turn sweet as you ride it more and enjoy it in new light.
But who am I to speak, I have yet to compare it to my own expectations..
Yet I feel confident I will find a new love in what seems to be a pretty damn good coaster for the whole family, not just the extremists!
EDIT: And as always, awesome pictures!
