My favorite restraints are either Butterfly restraints like the ones used on X and that "other funny 4-d coaster whose name I cannot pronounce" or the B&M ones on their flyers and floorless coasters. The restraints are extremely comfy and are a perfect fit. B&M overall makes the best restraints though. I love the design they used on Floorless coasters like Scream! where the seats are slightly reclined and the OSTR's are very comfortable.

Well, for the past two years, Ive gone to SFMM on the saturday of the super bowl weekend and it has been empty. I wouldnt see a reason why there would be more people going to Universal Orlando when the big game is in the area of the game where people can go and see the super bowl in person.

Glad to hear that they turned it on and way up. When I was on it in October, at the beginning of the day, you couldn't hear the music untill you were in the break run at the end and when I went on it just before the park closed at Six, the music was completely off on all the trains.

Will goliath be open next Saturday? im supposed to go then... oh yeah, also, I also called the park and they said not to get my hopes up about X reopening so... yeah, Im hoping for the best now.

one cast member who was somewhat nice does not save all of them. The trip i took in October Changed my opinion of the park because I didnt have to pay for anything at all. One of my friends from school had a free park hopper pass because of their whole promotional thing and so, instead of going by himself, he asked me to come along. I was not bothered at the time by the expence his family had to pay. The next monday, I realized the fact that he had payed over 120 dollars just for my ticket and everything else. Also, they were not RIDE OPS they were Cast Members. That is an entirely different thread. As for the tickets, its hard to pay about 60 dollars for one park for one day when I can go to another park that is just as good in my opinion. Plus, when you buy a season pass for 60, you can go back and back and back AND go to all of the other parks. Finally, I must admit that my feelings are a bit rash towards the park and the fact that they have soo many people that pass through their gates every day. Disneyland is an entirely different park than I am used to. Ive gone to SF about every month for the past couple years and so I was expecting more than I was given. I am the type of person who rides rides for the adrenaline rush and the intense experience and I was hoping for more than I was given. You must admit that the operations at DL are not always amazing and could use improvement just like every other park. I scencerely apologize for the very brutal and rash outlashing in my first post. I just hate the fact that everyone is always on SF because its "horrible and the rides always break down, and the people are mean" and all that stuff. I have had only positive experiences at MM and I am very annoyed at the rash beating that people have put on MM for their operations. Granted, they have been working on it some but it still needs improvement. So, basically this was a thread about me being annoyed at Everyone for hating on SFMM when other parks are lacking in areas as well. Im devoutly sorry. (unfortunately, this does not change my opinion of DL as a whole)

so...they get tourists and MM gets the frikin bigillion people that live in LA? thats a perfect marketing plan! attract the Asians who already have three disney parks and theirs are way better than ours.

Im 15, How would/could I afford to give it more of a chance? I would rather spend 60 dollars and be able to go to a decent park as often as possible than spend 120+ dollars for a pass that is barely useable because of blackout dates. Plus, its easier to go with other people or your friends when they can afford to go to.

I regret to inform you of the fact that the park is not at all what people describe it as and is NOT a "premium experience" of any sort. Its different when you advertise your park as the happiest place on earth, and then you have trash overflowing in trashcans, workers who cuss at you, and really annoying visitors. At least Six Flags can live up to their reputation (which is unfortunately not too great). Disneyland has always been less than worth it and will continue to remain that way, especially if they continue to raise the prices. Also, I did not have one negative experience. Out of the four times I have been to the park, I have had major issues with most of the rides and the operators. If you would like me to list them, I would, however, it would be a very very very long list. Lastly, I do understand that I spell some things wrong, but please do not point out things like that in a negatory and demeaning manor. I have not been good at english my entire life so bear with me.

Well... after reading through screamscape, I came up upon something rather disturbing and discusting. "Disney has raised a few prices at the California parks this week. Parking is now $11, a 1-Day Park Hopper is now $83 for Adults and $73 for Children." http://www.screamscape.com/html/disney_s_california_adventure.htm This is extremely depressing to me. They are charging so much its discusting. Now, although not too bad, its annoying that they would charge that much and then you have to pay their rediculous prices for food and souvenirs. Now, if this was a two day pass, it would be different but im discusted. When i went over the summer to the park, I paid about 95 dollars for the entire day. Now, I wouldnt mind other than the fact that my season pass to Six Flags is 60 bucks and there are no blackout days at all. I would take trash and junk over a 95 dollar drop every time you want to go to one park. Am I wrong to think that this is extremely outrageous? Just because you have a reputation does not mean you can charge rediculous prices and still run your park like crap. I've had much nicer days at Six Flags than at Disneyland. Also, I've seen just as much crappy ride operation at Disneyland as at Six Flags. We were stuck on Splash mountain once for an hour because the ride op did something stupid and wouldnt tell anyone what he/she did. And once we were off, no apologies, no re-ride passes, just a "tough luck for you". I think it boils down to just being sick of people bashing MM when they pass up other parks that have tons of problems.

the part that im most anxious about is the reopening of X on the third. How prepared are they for this? could it actually happen?

Theres always a chance that they could move the ride somewhere else but if they did, it would be nice if they got some new trains like the ones on Kumba at BGA. In my past visits, ive had a ton of people ask me what the rollercoaster just standing there is and ive had to explain to them exactly what it does and why its special. Theyve all said they would like to ride it so it would be nice if they could reopen it again. As for the markers on the trees. If you look at the picture, the old monorail track goes right by there. My guess would be that they are starting to work on getting the train idea running.

Crystal Wings Has to be the best. Either that or Black Mamba. The worst is scream! unfortunately. I love the ride but the scenery is extremely lacking DUDE!!!

Does the free booklet thing that comes with the season pass have a free parking ticket in it this year?

Im going on the 3rd of Febuary witch is the date they say on the website that it will open. What are the actual chances that this will happen and they will have two trains to run?

sweet!!! hope it actually does happen

you really didnt like LaQua (Is that right)? Ive heard alot of good things about it.

I guessed that there was a possibility that they would rip down Psyclone after they took the trains off and put them backwards on Colossus' track. I wonder what theyre going to put in there? I wish they would put in a short intamin launch coaster, but I doubt it will ever happen... and them tearing down flashback is really no surprise

Dude, how fun would it be to go down the ice on the Samuri Summit Hill!!! that would be insane! watch, Six flags will get a bunch of sleds and then claim that they have and 18th Coaster (sorry, i thought it was funny) Goliath is down for Refurb? Any guesses to how long this will last?

Dude... your trip report rocks. A quick question or two for you... 1. Do you have any pics of the Dragon from Fantasmic? 2. is there any noticeable differences that came about from the Really long rehab of the Matterhorn? Otherwise, your trip report was cool. I remember when i went a couple of months ago and saw fantasmic for the first time it was amazing. I love the way they project the movies on to the water. It rocks. Is it just me or does it seem as though every time theyre showing the fireworks their always having "wind" problems?

I dont know if that will actually happen, although there is a very good chance that it will take away from tatsu's line. However, in order to avoid getting caught up in the scramble to get to X, take the exit pass by Revolution and hit up tatsu first then come back later in the day when X's line is shorter. However, if your near the front of the line when the park opens and you can make it to X quickly, take advantage of that too. EDIT: that is, in front of the line to get into the park Oh, elissa, by the way, sorry about being rude the other day, I was in a terrible mood and i feel bad that i snapped.

thanks for pointing that out but i already knew. If everyone is so anal about spelling on this website... why dont they get a spell Check then huh?

I know that everyone is fed up with these kinda threads but... im going (hopefully) with one of my friends to SFMM on the 27th of January but i have two questions: 1. will X be open by then? 2. IM going to get a playpass and i was wondering if the cupon book had something for free parking in it. any help would be great!!!

ive only had one person ever ask me to move up and i said thats fine. However... This was on one of those days when schools go for graduation ditch day thingys and stuff so when more people tried, we wouldnt let them. As for me, if im in a large group and we all want to go on the same train, we let people pass us. Its just common courtesy to wait longer if you want to be together. I really doubt waiting and extra train is going to kill someone.

Mine was Demon at SFGam demon.bmp

Goliath at SFMM was neutered from the day it opened i think. If they took they didnt use the brakes halfway through the ride, you know how crazy it would be?
