    • Why is everyone all up in arms? Once Six Flags officially merges in, there will be no more free lockers anyway. Cedar Point will basically be Great Adventure without the Saturday night fistfights 😆
    • Nobody is going to walk a literal mile round trip to save $2, and if they do... just let them do it. lol
    • They Could always do what Universal does do free locker for a posted amount of time and if your stuff is still in the locker after said time then you get charged for it.  People have also said why not just leave your stuff in the SV locker then walk to ride TTD.  This is a long way and people freak out about not having a phone for 5 min could only imagine people starting to freak out about the phone being gone for hours on the other side of the park. 
    • Watching a few of the media day videos so far and the thing that stood out to me is that CP had the planning in place to convert the former Speed Freaks merchandise stand near Corkscrews station turn into a second on-ride camera stand because of it's proximity to the lockers at TT2, but didn't plan on them being a necessity for all loose items?  One good thing is that they added a back pathway from the Magnum midway to the locker area to eliminate the need to go "around the corner" to the queue entrance to get to the TT2 area. Oh, and one last thing is that during Media Day, the lockers were free, so it's definitely something they can adjust "on the fly."
    • Time to upgrade the "locker experience" like Wildcat's Revenge, TRON, Velocicoaster ... completely possible and better for everybody to include the dual-sided free lockers into the queue without slowing everything down or forcing us to pay for yet another "add-on."
    • I didn't know this was a thing Zamperla had either.  Waldameer likes working with Zamperla it seems, this would be a nice addition/upgrade
    • The "Zarantula"?  I had no idea Zamperla had that in their catalog.  Looks pretty cool, despite the OTSR's.  Now you have me wondering as well!  
    • There are more onrides, were you can see some pre-ride effects and a little surprise  before the ride starts... So be aware of spoilers https://youtu.be/veh7SxNQOMo?feature=shared   And one more report (in english) of the opening ceremony and the queue etc.: https://youtu.be/9yHWVZCOwAU?si=-V-mmZDfc13WNmQI The ride look like a huge hit and has excellent theming again
    • I've seen some pretty over the top locker takes in the last few days, but I will say one thing...  if the only way for a guest to read a park map is on their phone, they shouldn't be charged for needing to store it.  If the park is already operating under the assumption that every guest will have a smart phone on them, the ride policies need to reflect this as well. I don't understand what could have changed during ride testing that would affect having your phone and keys inside a zipper pocket.  Like... the explanation that it was a late change due to testing and Zamperla recommendation doesn't make any sense.  And they can't add zipper pouches to the trains like RMC has done?
    • I usually carry a heavy steel bracket in my cargo shorts, so I get your point.
    • ^ 😍 Iiiiiiiiiiii ....... like it!
    • Well, if they're going with Zamperla, this would make an interesting replacement for the Spider, hm?  https://www.zamperla.com/product/zarantula
    • I miss the old "just dump your crap in this bin" systems that were so ubiquitous before Six Flags decided that single-use pay-per-ride lockers were the way to go.  Like surge pricing, it has only led to frustrations and annoyance across the industry.
    • I feel so bad for those poor team members working entrance for TT2. Imagine the verbal bashings they are going to get. The flip flop/backless shoe/sandal thing is going to be an absolute NIGHTMARE.  I feel bad for those team members. - I feel like CP royally f**ked this one up. - I wouldn’t be surprised if we don’t see Steel Vengeance style lockers show up next season, or even mid season this year. Some how. Idk how with the current queue layout. However, they going to have to figure something out. Or move the entrance to under the giant TT2 sign, and make the lockers past that “free.” Again, idk how that would work. But they gotta figure something out because this is going to be a cluster. 
    • Same.    I always thought that the majority of enthusiast never counted them as credits, so why would mountain coasters count in this case…?
