coasterbill Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Yeah the interactive element is getting all of the attention but the snake enclosure in the queue is pretty awesome looking too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 COBRA'S CURSE WINE!! I need that! Everything about this ride looks great! The theming is excellent and the ride looks perfect for families. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainUnknown Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 With the gift shop, are there cobra themed hats similar to the ones the performers wore, or just the standard fare in that department? This might be just the pictures you shared, but I found the ride op uniforms detract from the overall great themeing along with a rather open air station instead of in a pyramid-like structure. Again, maybe this is just the shared pictures, but I can't wait to ride it this August! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy T. Koepp Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Ooooooo! Cobra Wine! With hints of King Cobra Venom. For that extra hallucinogenic feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philrad71 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Looks awesome...can't wait to get back to the park to experience this coaster. And what...no Cobra's Curse beer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmcbell Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 From what few coasters I've been on, Cobra's Curse looks like a mix between Scooby Doo at Movie World (with the lift, which even appears to tilt) and Sonic Spinball (is it still called that?) at Alton Towers (with the spinning). Both, in my opinion, pretty good family coasters, and I've little doubt that this will do well for Busch Gardens. If I could offer some criticism, it would be that it needs more theming - or at least seems to - along the ride itself. Would be good to see a long tunnel or something, but then I'm probably being unrealistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPmillenia94 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 So today I just discovered the back left edge seat on montu.. Holy crapp!! For those who have yet to experience this, you are in for a suprise on the batwing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I love pie Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 ^I didn't find any seat in the back row that intense. The front row is a different story though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you blacked out and didn't remember it. Yeah, Montu in the back row is insane. I'd love to know how many g's it pulls going into that batwing. Good lord I love that thing.

coasterbill Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Between the back left of Montu and the back right of Kumba that park has 2 of the most ridiulous B&M coasters anywhere. I really wonder if BGT locals know how good they have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember all of my rides in the back seat and they weren't that intense. Back row on kumba is very intense but back row on Montu isn't very intense.

CPmillenia94 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 ^I didnt find the right or middle seats to be that intense in comparison. Still very intense though! Maybe you caught it on a slow day.. It was hauling this weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jynx242 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 It has been my experience on all old-school B&M inverts that the back rows are wonderfully intense. Montu is no different. And I'm another member of the Rear Right on Kumba Cult. Zen experience - that zero G is to die for. D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragerunner2 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Just got to experience Cobra's Curse. Great addition to Busch Gardens. They needed a well themed fun family coaster and this fits the bill. The indoor queue line is a significant step forward for the park. Hope this type of ride theming becomes standard for future park attractions.

thrillrider Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Can any locals chime in on how long the lines have been for cobras curse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcrider4 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Generally about 45-90 depending on time of day and how busy the park is. Sometimes it hits 120 on Saturdays or right after park opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillrider Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Thank you. We are only going to have 1.5 days at the park (with quick pass), and we're debating on weather or not to get the added cobras curse to it. It's an extra $20, but with lines under 2 hours it shouldn't be necessary. Btw... $20 is extremely steep for 1 coaster, but we don't want to miss it.

DallasAlvey Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Tonight was the VIP party for Cobra's Curse! It was a great event, we had Montu, Cheetah Hunt and of course Cobra's Curse open to us for four hours! Plus lots of free food and drinks, which is always a plus. Cobra's Curse is really fun family coaster and a great addition to the park! Check out the photos: Got our credentials and we're ready to go! Got our credentials and we're ready to go!

Big thanks to Busch Gardens for having us out! Sweet ride! Noted. Now it's a party! Let's ride! Cobra's Curse in action! Perfect amount of waiting! Can't pass up Cheetah Hunt while we're here! Love walking into a station and seeing this! Plenty of animals to hang out with. Sometimes I hang out with penguins. Montu was absolutely packed tonight! Still one of the best coasters around! Tried and failed at Ring Toss! The ball toss is TKraptor approved! Unlimited games! Time for night rides! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximo37 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Can any locals chime in on how long the lines have been for cobras curse? On a whim, I went on opening day of Cobras Curse. Got to the park around 11:30a. Posted wait time was 120min. The Queue was out past the marquee and started near Crown Colony House. Including several small downtimes, we waited roughly 80-85 minutes. We rode a second time around 3pm. Posted wait time was 60 minutes. Again, including several short downtimes, it was a true 60 (I estimate it would have been 40 without the momentary delays). Both our rides were vastly different. 1st time barely spun. And while it was fun, it was very mild. 2nd time we spun like crazy. It felt out of control. This coaster is a HUGE win for BGT. A seriously fun FAMILY coaster. Can't wait to ride again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
