I think you're all just jealous this guy noticed the dent faster than those of you that feel it necessary to post an update about every bolt tightened on the ride..nice to know Gerslager or however you spell their name use only the finest of materials for their multi million dollar rides seeing as how someone pointed out they painted over this dent in the manufacturing process. If I were on the receiving end of those parts I'll tell them to stuff it...you all are pathetic and sound like a bunch of 10 year olds. Get a life coaster nerds, you all act so elite about your vast knowledge of how.many inversions and feet of track there are on the ride yet none of you have built a coaster either so SHUT UP already...

Glad to hear your house was spared. I can only imagine the somber feeling that you had....Thank you for sharing.

Here was another one on Facebook taken from pretty close to where we used to live!
If only it could've got a hold of Apocalypse.

^It is still closed according to the website. It’s been down for about two months now. I heard they were testing with water dummies a few weeks ago, but I guess it’s still having issues.
Isn't this nothing more than a carnival ride? Hard to believe there are so may issues.

I remember saying "this should be just like Viper" when I was waiting in line for Vortex back in '07. Boy was I wrong!

I have no idea but my ride in the front was rough. Smooth as glass in the back.

I wanted to love Kumba but it was pretty rough in the back. Front was amazing, however. Montu is just nuts - I probably rode 10 times when I visited.
When did you ride it (Kumba)? I know it was a bit rough in July before they did a refurb in August.

SF parks can't keep simple low tech effects including fire, misters, and lighting consistently working. I don't think facial recognition cameras with supporting software will be available at these parks for years to come. Until then, just be happy the shitters flush.
The sad part is, there's so much truth to this.

Wristbands can be picked up at Main Entry Gate OR the "Universal Box Office" which is inside the park next to Starbucks in the Upper Lot. There's no need to exit the park and re-enter. The late FOL option includes Mummy, Jurassic Park, Transformers, and Simpsons as well as HHN mazes.

Good find! I just placed an order for one.

At one point someone said they are a "finger smacker" type device to warn you not to reach your hands out so far.. No idea how true that is but we pretty much stopped talking about it when we got that answer haha..
To me they look like sensors but we were told a warning device to warn your hands and arms

A warning device is exactly what they are.

So I’ve been clearly living under a rock and had no idea it has been SBNO this long.

^All valid points. My question is, when was the last time (If ever) an NDT was conducted on the arm assemblies?

One of my favorite Chapelle episodes!

I need to buy an RMC polo and then go to random parks holding a clipboard, looking at wood coasters and pretending to take notes.
Please do this.
I second this but ask that you also wear an Intamin hat and carry a Vekoma binder to really f*ck with people.

Being able to wear that shirt is an incentive??

***Update***
Appreciate the kind words from everyone here. I received a call from Tony Aaron, Director of Food Services, this morning, he was extremely apologetic and went above and beyond in terms of an apology and response to the situation. Cedar Point handled this with class and a true A+ in customer service. He offered to bring my boyfriend and I back for free and include fast lane and water park access. I doubt I'll be able to make it back this year due to work so he said he'd extend the invite to return to any year we can make it back. Very classy response. They identified the employee and spoke to him, and he ralyed the info that the employee felt terrible about the situation and immediately knew what he had done was a mistake.
Excellent, Glad they took care of you. The world we live in is in a sad state.

^Agreed. Engineering at its finest.

Anybody that physically went up to the ride operator and used the phrase "the cycle is too short" is an enthusiast and their opinion should be immediately disregarded.
Exactly my thoughts!
Ride Operator's reaction:

I love how you had to throw in "well behaved."
-
^Dick Kinzel and Jack Falfas did visit MM in 2006.

What if the new Boardwalk BBQ building is really a new Boardwalk BBQ but is really part of the new ride? Maybe the station or part of a show building.
Grab a half-rack of ribs on the way out of the station. That's my kind of ride.
