  1. Maybe one of the motors up top broke. That seems to be the area they’ve been working on. That is indeed the case. The swinging motor failed on Tuesday, January 8th in the middle of a cycle. This left the frisbee full of passengers free-swinging for about 20 min until it finally lost momentum and came to a halt. Yes, I did witness this and I do have video saved on my phone of the incident. This will probably be a lengthy fix. Saw it run two test cycles this afternoon... That’s good. Perhaps won’t take much longer to repair after all.

  3. Dang, that FIDLAR song makes this so fire. You seem like a really dope dude to hang with.
  4. Yikes. Riddler’s new paint is starting peel off. Hopefully this is just a localized issue and not something that could occur across the entire coaster.
  5. Some work being done on Green Lantern. Some speculations floating around that they may be adding trim brakes on the drops.
  6. Hey all! I'm going to be visiting CGA for my first time on 12/30. I'm sure the obligatory "what should I expect" post has seen it's rounds on here already so I'll scan through the thread to find it. In the mean time, are all of the coasters open for winter fest? On the Winterfest website, Patriot, Flight Deck, Gold Striker and Woodstock Express are the only coasters advertised. Update: Nevermind all. I found the answer a little further back. A little sad I'll be missing Demon but oh well. Another time I suppose.
  7. https://misha-mishajashvili.bandcamp.com/album/2017 This album is really something. Sound collage from an artist in Lasnamae, Estonia which portrays the poverty, history, and ethnic struggles of his city. Really creative and groovy.
  8. Hey all! I'm thinking about making a trip up from Los Angeles tomorrow (Sunday, January 8th) and I understand it's been forecasted to rain in Valejo for the majority of the day. Can I expect many rides to be closed? Will it be worth it to make the trek up there? I haven't been since before they've redone V2 so there is a lot that will be new to me. Thanks for any heads up.
  9. I'm thinking about visiting the park for the first time in a while this Sunday. Are major crowds/lines to be expected on that day?
  10. I'm here now too. Just showed up and immediately faced a small for FT. Say hi if you run into me.
  11. What, really? I just drove by and saw a ton of cars in the parking lot out to Scream's corkscrews and debated going in. Decided not to. I suppose all the guests are in HH. Guess I'll swing by tonight and get a good lap in.
  12. Who's down for a cool little meet up sometime in the Summer after July 4th on the weekdays when the crowds aren't so bad and when X2 and TC are back in full swing? Been dying to meet fellow so-cal enthusiasts at the mountain and geek out
  13. Thinking about heading to the mountain today. If you are there right now, how are the crowds? it's on par with yesterday, which wasn't too bad. X2 and FT were down so I did 4 runs of TC before rechecking X2 & FT. I left around 1230. I honestly couldn't enjoy myself with 100F dry heat so next time I'll visit when it's cooler. It was cooler but humid this morning before clouds burnt off around midday. It was a good day today nonetheless as TC is my fav here (obviously can't comment on X2) Sucks about X2. It's a real gem. At least you got TC in though. I hear ya about that heat though. It's around that time of year where if I do go, I go in the lightest gym uniform I can get away with and take advantage of those water fountains that surprisingly shoot up a lot of water.. The heat really sucks but if it's too hot it scares away the lines or keeps the crowd in HH. This isn't foolproof though. I finally went today around 7:00pm to 9:00pm and only got in a ride on FT, TC, and a closing two ride back to back marathon on Batman plus Lex Luthor for the single rider line, which was still about a 15min wait. Last week I lapped through the park twice in 4 hours with repeats on all the rides that were open with a ~5min to walk on wait plus single rider walk ons. I guess today wasn't my lucky day. However, there have certainty been worse crowds to be dealt with and I would overall say today was moderate considering the short amount of time I had there too.
