The first inversion looks like it’ll have some insane hang time!

I’m wondering if this is the same gauge as the Fire in the Hole successor assuming it’s different than conventional I-Box. It should be a similar-sized ride.
This would be a good fit to replace Sand Serpent at Busch Gardens Tampa. I’m excited to start seeing these pop up!
It’s not just that. When connected to an Apple Watch or Apple Pencil (for iPad) the quick toggle maintains these connections along with maintaining handoff and continuity functions between personal devices among other things. In these cases, I think having the quick toggle not fully disable Bluetooth makes more sense to prevent new connections while keeping the existing Watch and Pencil Bluetooth connections active to preserve functionality. Of course, I get that not everyone’s use case is the same, but I rarely need to fully disable the wireless radios. Particularly with Wi-Fi, I use the quick toggle to temporarily disconnect Wi-Fi if I’m on a bad connection away from home. When I return home or to my car (for wireless CarPlay), my phone will reconnect to the respective networks without me needing to remember to re-enable.
Nice! I’m heading out to Carowinds and Dollywood in November. Looking forward to riding Fury 335 again!
Edit: Whoops, unfortunately the repairs did not add 10 feet in height to the ride. Looking forward to riding Fury 325 again!
Not an informational book, but I had this roller coaster maze book as a kid: https://www.amazon.com/Maze-Ing-Roller-Coaster-Mazes/dp/1588650626
I want to buy a copy again to see how many I’ve ridden and how many are defunct by now. I think Taz’s Texas Tornado from AstroWorld was in there and that is long gone.
On it!
Still on it…
Something went wrong. Please try again.
When it was all but confirmed to be a swing launch, I was kind of hoping they’d sneak an airtime hill in the launch track like on Pantheon. Maybe it would be a bit too much at >100 mph, but that hill on Pantheon hits HARD going backwards.
I definitely think it will be fun but I agree that the hype isn’t quite there for me compared to the original ride (and how is Top Thrill 2 the best they could come up with after all of this time?). I’ll reserve judgment until I can ride, but I really hope the LSM launches are sufficiently forceful. While the rear spike sounds awesome, it’s lacking the big draw of gaining all of the speed in a single, powerful launch.
I believe Instagram usernames are reserved on Threads to ensure people can keep the same handle on both networks, but the users aren’t automatically signed up with a profile.
Yeah that’s true too. At least from a ticketing standpoint, Universal provides temporary locker passes in case your park ticket is on your phone (or in my case, my printed ticket got destroyed by Dudley Do-Right’s Ripsaw Falls 😅).
The best setup is where the lockers are in the queue to minimize time away from phones if they are needed. That being said, I didn’t feel like I needed mine even in the longer line for the Hagrid coaster where lockers were before the queue line. Lockers also help speed up operations since you don’t have to wait for people to put items in bins.
Aw man, I’m finally going to Dollywood for the first time middle of November. I know this ride has not been very reliable but, it has been a bucket list ride for me ever since it opened. I hope this is for the best but I wish I could experience the launched version.
