Every year I come down to SoCal for hokey and we go to this park. This is the third time. I was at the park over the last two days and the lines were very short. The longest line I waited in was YOLO coaster, it was about 45 minutes. But when I walked past Tatsu it was the longest ride I saw both days. It was hot out and sunny. First, I went to Full Throttle. I was surprised how well it fit into the area it's at. I was even more surprised that it is an awesome ride. Their is some serious hang time in the loop. The backwards launch has some force. Its not to much but noticeable. Going over the loop was amazing and some good air time in that drop (which I think the park lacks air time for the amount of coaters). The ride broke down about here times when I was their. The plaza looks nice. It just looks weird that their is no sign for the ride and they haven't put the hand rails up yet. It looks like their is about three more rows that they need to drill holes in the ground before they put the rest up. It looks like the hill to the left would be a nice spot for a ride station with the lift or brakes that go through the loop. Goliath is my favorite ride. The helix defiantly has some good forces on it. Also when my stepdad went on after me and my sister the train actually stopped on the MCBR before continuing. Mine just slowed down a lot. The first drop, air time hill and hang time is the highlights of the ride. Lex Luther was awesome and the sway on the tower was crazy. A good type of crazy. Scream was fun, nothing special. It sucks they were only running one car. Colossus was ok, it needs some work. The wood looks like its going to fall apart. My mom and I wouldn't stop flipping on Green Lantern. I got stuck on batman for about 5 minutes. That was broken down for about half the day. Riddler is still one of my favorites and its getting rough. Apocalypse was awesome, the fire wasn't working. Also the second day it was only using one train. Ninja was good, but its a must ride in front. The fast pass is annoying because your next then a person just gets on right in front of you. Superman was awesome. Tatsu was great as always. It really needs a paint job. Viper was good also. loved the first drop and double corkscrew. X2 was also amazing. The on ride audio was working but not the fire. Here are some pictures. Sorry for bad quality.

This has probley been mentioned but does anyone know when Lex Luther will open again? I'm going on monday and tuesday. I doubt it will be but thought I would just ask.

If it was this month I would be able to go. I live in norcal but I am down here right now for a hockey tournament that will last two weeks. Maybe if you do norcal then I could go to one.

^Thats a great idea. But not the name.

I dont see much change besides some land and the building moved. Its crazy how nice FD looks now. I never noticed how faded it was.

I was expecting more of a gold color but what I can see it looks nice. It will be awsome when testing starts.

That looks awsome. But its going to be weird having the supports comeing off one side and not the other. Nothing they can do about that.

^ Im excited not because I think its going to be one of the best, but CGA hasn't got a new ride in a long time. Also GCI is my favorite. It does look like a fun ride.

It looks alot better now.

They will, eventually. The last time Vortex got re-painted was in the late 90s/early 2000s so I would expect them to re-paint Vortex soon. Ya they should be because all the work going on right now. It really needs it.

First keyhole is up
