I wonder if it'll be an Intamin half-pipe? -

The Manta clone appears to be a little under supported to be in the park -

^you go through the rides exit up to the platform on most coasters. Skyrush, Fahrenheit and Storm Runner you go up the elevators. The fast track system is garbage and it needs an overhaul. It's been a mess since it debuted in 2012. -

Junior Bruins, eh? Any soft spot for Hershey? Yes I grew up going to Bears games all the time. Even at the old arena I saw the last home game. -

I'd like to think the bear name also had influence from the hockey team. Maybe just because I play -

Intamin is just fantastic. As for the white paint again, I think you hit the nail on the head it would fade within a year if colored. In the right environment I think all white or all black coasters can look appealing to a certain extent. -

It seems they only wrapped the pieces that needed to be. I assume the rest of the track will be unwrapped. It will take an awfully long time to unwrap all of that, but as you mentioned^ I'll do it!! -

Great trip report glad you and the family had fun! To answer your main concern, yes the ride operations are below average on a regular basis with an occasional ride being better than others. Personally just ignorance on the workers parts, most are teenagers around my age who don't seem to care about getting customers the best experience possible, but rather the paycheck at the end of the week. They usually do assign seats on Skyrush however like you said you can opt to sit where you want if you ask and are approved. I think they could improve by being stricter when the lines are longer, however Skyrush tends to die down shortly after opening anyway. To me best operations over the years have been on Storm Runner. -

My mistake, someone said "Ispeed clone" which it's definitely not. Looks to be more on the intensity level of Storm Runner. No problem! I certainly would hope for the newer looking lap bars, not sure if it would work on Storm Runner with its laterals but never know. Fahrenheit they would certainly work on. Altogether there isn't really a need to change the restraints. SR is 11 years old and Fahrenheit is 7 so they've been fine! -

I think Storm Runner out of the 2 OTSR would benefit from the strap like harness. Fahrenheit doesn't have much negative or lateral forces more so +. -
