Just stopped by SFA for a quick visit. Here is the quick run down of what I did:
Mind Eraser (1 lap, walk on, 1 train operation)
Welp, I got my one lap for the year. Until 2014, Mind Eraser! And it's still the same orange and yellow except for the blue Kia advertisement wrapping on one of its trains.
Apocalypse (1 lap, ~15 min., 1 train operation)
I can see how on a busy day 1 train operation would be a problem; the staff was just doing "okay" with dispatches. Overall, I still think it's decently fun except for the exit of the corkscrew---major head bang-age.
Joker's Jinx (1 lap, ~10 min., 1 train operation)
A great ride as always.
Batwing (1 lap, ~10 min., 1 train operation)
Thank God they repainted Batwing's supports; they're now a very nice, dark charcoal color as opposed to rusting, faded purple. And I think I grow smidge more fond of this coaster every time I ride it.
Superman (2 laps, ~10-15 min., 1 train operation)
Maintenance was still working on the red train while the blue train seemed to me to be running well. Objectively, it was still kind of shaky. Personally, it didn't bother me and I had a blast as always; full train and hauling ass!
Wild One (1 lap, ~15 min., 1 train operation)
Sadly, I would have to agree that Wild One is running rougher than last year. However, it was running fast and still gave good air over most of the hills and nice laterals in the helix.
One thing that has not changed, however, is ride down time. In the 3.5 hours I was there Superman, Batwing, and Wild One all had breakdowns. They all got back up and running in relatively short time, but an inconvenience nonetheless.
Meanwhile, over in "I've been running with PTC's for the past decade plus change" land:
I think something is missing...
