Bummer, since Hulk was designed just before B&M began mixing vagisil into the ink they print their blueprints with.
I wasn't given the impression that the ride would be toned down at all.
It's probably not what they're going for, but the B&M of today is different than the B&M of old. If they're re-shaping track sections...I'm not an engineer, but I would imagine that the difference between a forceful ride and a fluff ride are not too radical in terms of track profile. It would probably only take a tweak here or there to turn Kumba into Kraken.
Ironically, I rode Kumba this past Thursday and then Krakken yesterday. Now I better understand what you were saying. Had a blast on both coasters but Kumba felt more aggressive to me.
First off, I think I overused the quote button there. Oopsy.
And yeah, Kumba and Kraken are pretty much clones. Not direct clones, but clones nonetheless.
Kraken is better
