How long were the lines anyone who waited down the street?

They just said they paused testing and there is no guarantee they will reopen today. The second I got in line

Same here. Hope I'm not doomed here

EDIT: They're still moving people along. Looks like a good sign to me.

Those people are being sacrificed to the roller coaster gods.

Don't know for sure but I overheard that they supposedly capped people from entering the line. Thankfully for me I'm already inside the queue. Surprised it only took 30 minutes. Felt like forever when I got in line and then was let into the queue

HD POVs are coming out--as it seems Meta Glasses with straps are being allowed.

It’s really hard to gauge the intensity of this ride with the spinning cars.

For some reason they are offering express right now on the ride.

Am I the only one who thinks the layout is lackluster? The elements aren't all that interesting, but I'm sure the controlled spinning adds another level to them.

Lots of chatter around "views", but you only get two actual good views of the mountains and USH while riding. Maybe the queue has some good views?

Still, this is a massive win for USH.

Spinning changes things. Just look at Cosmic Rewind. It's just a bunch of turns and shallow drops but the spinning turns that into a world class coaster.

Good for the employees to get reps dealing with Express, too.

 

[trentacoldbrew420]

Got 2 rides on it. The hype is for sure real, I do like that it’s not super intense and the drifting for me was not bad at all. I genuinely think Ghost Rider is a more intense experience, this is just unlike any coaster I’ve ever been on.

 

[BriefCasey]

Seems like the line is indeed capped, didn't see any more people coming into the standby line by the time it was in view for me again.

Man this is a meaty queue. I'll be doing single rider from here on out if I can help it and definitely rope dropping this if i go with a group once it's properly open. The views so far have been really nice though.
