The axis coaster just seems like a slightly updated version of their other model that didn't fare well. Think they have one of those trains in front of their offices. Not sure I completely understand it but I'm assuming they can make the car flip, etc like the first part of the test track. It just seems kind of like riding a gimble and you'd float around in relatively the same position. Almost like the horizontal locked videos that show up now days. Could be fun, though. Love to try it somewhere, some day.

SBF Hamster wheel in Myrtle Beach. Truly awful. But I'll try most anything once.

The video of this accident is just heart breaking. So sad.

Yes. I don't think any park is purposely putting lives I jeopardy because eof staffing issues. If it's not to code and approved they won't open the ride. Just an opinion though. Not saying they can't be short staffed but the idea they let ride maintenance slip and still keep them open seems far fetched.

You're suggesting parks are just letting life saving maintenance slip due to staffing? Seems more like bad luck than anything else to me. If it's signing off on bad maintenance, that's a very serious, life threatening problem.

Add SDC's new raft ride. Boat nearly flipped recently. Now construction walls around the attraction. Hate to see all these things happen and people getting hurt.

Word is after refurbishing their rapids ride for the last year, it reopened today. Hours later a boat flipped with people on it. Hope everyone is alright.

From what he described at Rodeo, the queue will be pretty awesome. He went through everything they are doing. Hedge maze, doors you enter, car inside, etc.

Does the FP website not work here? And if it does, what do they do at El Toro, etc that don't allow phones? https://ga.sfflashpass.com/#

They had Tricks and Treats Fall Fest last year. That sign is from last year promoting season passes.

It's a water park mainly. Coasters will have relatively short lines that move at a snails pace because they aren't exactly quick at ops there. Have fun. Great way to spend a few hours. Get there at opening and you'll have no problems.

Some staff were riding IG today. Maybe there is hope of it opening this year?

Probably not. On the 15th of this month, only 1 loop was together and half painted. Another loop was starting to go up.

I always just order a free refill on the app and get a paper cup. Tossed my bottle long ago. Works at all the SF parks I've been to so far.

Yep. That's what I've been seeing. Can't imagine what that felt like or sounded like on the ride. Amazing no one hurt, thankfully.

They will give you 3 hours of free parking for Chocolate World. Can't comment on time to actually park. Store and ride shouldn't be too busy.

Lots of places here have working gas pumps all night even if the station is closed. Strange more don't do that.

Agreed. Also appears to fit nicely in that spot next to/on the current theater that is going.

Word is they also stop cutting the lines early and are back to the old way. All good news for sure.

If you want to see the plans for the new single rail JD 'clone' at MM they are here: https://epicla.lacounty.gov/SelfService/?fbclid=IwAR1LiLlI-gE99dAnk4c-7-mdxaGXUNpu3AAXkzhnvUJ72jA5-oQ0IYC2D54#/plan/6cdc2c13-54e7-4148-ad05-fe845d17b4e1?tab=attachments

And it appears the layout was leaked today. An L shaped out and back.

"It's no kiddie coaster." Colors will be red, white, and blue. Seems they recently trademarked Aire Force One name. Sports teams tie in fell through, so that might be for this. They have broken ground in Atlanta.

McDs at the entrance an option?

Oh my. That's not good at all.

Probably save a ton on your rental if you make a circle instead of dropping off a different spot. Could fly into St Louis or Chicago, over to KC, SDC, etc. then end up back to save a few hundred. SDC open til midnight on July 31.
