Get a supervisor involved. Period. As a lead I always expect my operators to get me involved in any "questionable scenarios." She never should have been denied to begin with but I DO understand the operator being gun shy. I get that, but at that point a lead and/or supervisor should have been called over to thwart this whole scenario.

As far as I'm concerned, the operator that she came in contact with 1st caused this entire mess. SF admitted fault when the Guest Services/Rides department supervisor offered for her to ride.

^Understood, but sounds to me like Six Flags is at fault here..... I will say though, It's good SF covered their a$$ by breaking down the term "Fully functioning arm" as an arm with 1 functioning finger is also considered "functioning."

She met the rider requirements.....not sure where the issue was here.

^As a matter of fact, an "RMC Job" might be illegal in a few states.....

Like they said, forceless.

Wow. Lagoon looks to have a winner on their hands! I might need to make the trek to Utah....

You just answered your own question.

Moving right along...

Try emailing the park. They probably have a playlist they might be able to email you. Awesome thing you're doing for your son, by the way!

^Lol. Define "safely."

It probably won't affect operations necessarily however most parks will be even more diligent when inspecting the trains.

Those steel cables are supposed to prevent such an accident. Definitely odd. When I was a lead at Boomerang at KBF some douchebag hopped the gate that's next to the stairs at the right in this picture. The train had just released from lift 2 and I had to slam on the E-Stop. Those brakes brought that train to a grinding halt and made a sh*tload of noise. The brakes definitely worked as intended.

Robb, Yes that's the last car in the station.... Yikes!

I love RMC but if "woodies" (Giggle) are being considered, I hope there's talks with Intamin!

OK I'm confused. The last car of the train derailed or detached?

Sandusky Register Could something similar to Griffon be coming to the Point?

It's a rumor until the park confirms it...

Problem is, Otis doesn't work for free. SFMM probably doesn't have OR want to spend the money required to update permits and maintain a service contract. Seems to me that the park is just taking the "easy way out" and just pretending the Sky Tower is not there.

And then tweeted this....

If there's a "secret way" to ride a coaster to avoid a concussion, then it's a piece of sh*t.

^Yea well I can't leave all the sexual innuendos for Guy!!

Why would the announcement of TTD have any affect on what SFMM and SFOT were getting? It was rumored that SFMM was trying to keep up their coaster count. But this was all hearsay.
