It’s also subjective, so I’m not sure I buy that it’s oversold. It’s certainly much rougher than when it first opened, but it’s not like I’m pining for the salad days of Psyclone.

It's always been relatively smooth for a wooden coaster to me.. as i said, I've been on worse so it doesn't phase me enough to avoid riding it

Thinking of heading to the park for the first time in years next month. Have yet to ride WCR and WW but how’s Apocalypse these days?

I was just on it this past weekend. The roughness can go up and down. It was a bit on the rough side, but it's certainly been worse. On a scale of 1 - 10, 1 being smoothest, I'd currently give it a 4.5

Haven’t watched the video yet as I’m not able to right now, but if the markers are pretty spread out, then I think that giga could actually happen!

Nah... They're just finding new ways to add even more non-shaded concrete with the least amount of additions possible.

Fun. In. The. Sun.

Hot off the success of *Queue line: the ride*

Standing for hours in ungodly heat has never been more thrilling!

Yeah, I went two days ago, still the worst run theme park ever. Place is a joke.

Wonder Woman was running ONE train with only 10 working seats, stopping in the station too. Anyways besides the point. they didn't have a person standing in the Locker area, so the Exit, lockers, fast line and regular line are all bunched up and multiple groups of people were cutting in line and reriding. In a 10 person every that dispatched every 5 min rode this one couple young couple rode 3 times and kept cutting the line, everyone down there was getting so mad and testy with one another, it was mad house, it took 40 minutes to go from Lockers to ride.

Then in the station there is like 4/5 people. All messing around cracking jokes having a great time while the one train is cycling. Not even able to notice people are reriding and there's a war happening with guests right below them lol.


I watched a Janitor dump a full thing of filty dirty bathroom water out in the middle of the main path way and it was mildly busy at the place and time too, no drain in sight. like I had to dodge the water because it splashed up and he was shaking the yellow tub thing in the air to dry it without looking.


That's not even half of what I saw in the few hours I was there. I drive double the distance to Knotts and go 3-4x more. That tells you everything.

my brain is trying to think of a reason for this, besides a "drink spill", but even then it shouldnt be handled this way. Yikes.

Sad to hear operations have gone from bad to worse for Park Services, Ride-Ops & everything in between..

I’ll always stand by Wonder Woman and West Coast Racers being such pointless, stupid and filler additions

WCR being a launched version of Twisted Colossus without the wood support structure.

WW killed off 3 rides (Green Lantern, Tidal Wave & Flash)... granted they just didn't want to operate GL, so they sold it. Coaster for a coaster. Still doesn't excuse the loss of a water & flat ride.

WCR was definitely filler, and yes, mediocre at best. And whoever decided on the comfort collars was hopefully fired . I won’t ride it again until they’re removed (probably never).

I’m a fan of single rails so I like Wonder Woman, although leave it to SFMM to find a way to make the overall experience mostly forgettable.

Supposedly the new ride is more to the standards of Tatsu and X2, but with better theming and presentation, but will anyone care?

Figures. Probably exposed to the elements so it can rot? It makes no sense to not have just relocated/rethemed it.

I have a strong love/hate relationship with this park lol

I’m with you. It has the potential to be so much better than it is. And the changes necessary to do that aren’t really all that hard.
