rctman Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I believe Superman Krypton Coaster at SFFT has a bigger loop then Dominator. I've always heard that to be the biggest and Viper to be the tallest. Take a look at the pictures and compare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelTheFORCE Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Dominator's loop is the biggest, diameter-wise, but Superman's loop beats out Dominator's, height-wise, by 3 feet (Dominator: 135 ft., Superman: 138 ft.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesdillaman Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 ^ Not to mention that Superman: Krypton Coaster is a much better ride Glad to see they're landscaping the rides moved from GL. I think this will fit in better in its new home than it could ever have hoped to at GL. -James Dillaman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfoot12 Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Great pics, guys. I'm definitely going to have to take off work early one day next week and make the short hike up there. This is the exact kind of ride KD needs (as others have mentioned). Maybe it will take away from some of Volcano's line through hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Clear Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I went yesterday for a couple of hours (Memorial Day). Operations on Dominator were phenomenal. They were running all three trains and stacking was minimal. I got on twice in the first 40 minutes I was there. Then I had to wait 25 minutes to get on Rebel Yell. I was third in line.

I remember walking along the bridge thinking about how pretty Dominator and Thunderhawk were on the water. It may have a better life but it will not be better landscaped.

All Clear Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 And by water, of course, he means green sludge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swampfox Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 ^ Hey KD has green sludge too. It just has a worse ride over it in Anaconda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of Rebel yell is the former "backward" side open for the season yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Clear Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Yes, but oddly, it runs about like the forward side ran last season. There's a bump at the bottom of the first drop and the rest of the ride was pretty sluggish and jackhammery. I rode both sides one after the other in the same seat and it was like two different rides. The "always-has-been-forward" side is just plain dreamy in the first two cars.
