Here is testing from yesterday at about 5:30.

...stand by, the video isn't playing. I uploaded it from my phone. What's the problem?

It plays on my PC in Windows Media Player but is upside down. Actually, I think I like it better that way.

 

[metalman]

Hahaha!
Yea, I'm not seeing it via my IPhone. It was cool to see it in person. It sounds very smooth. I hope it feels the same unlike Verbolten, where as of last year I'm surprised they didn't tweak it. Even just rolling out of the station it was ka-chunk ka-chunk ka-chunk ka-chunk.

I could have sworn Project 2017 was a giant cannon that launches guests 70 miles to Kings Dominion. Just another example of BGW subverting our expectations.

Apparently if you can't ride Apollo you probably can't ride Tempesto

 

[TrevorBondi]

Apparently if you can't ride Apollo you probably can't ride Tempesto

What does this statement even mean exactly?

 

[metalman]

I kind of liken Tempesto to Sponge Bob's Rock Bottom Plunge in the Mall of America.

 

[Jrbgwfan06]

It could actually mean a variety of things. For example, it could also mean if you are too 'big'(not in terms of height) for Apollo's Chariot, then you are probably too 'big' for Tempesto.

 

[TrevorBondi]

Or he could have just said something like the aforementioned posts. Let me add to the ambiguity: If you don't enjoy eating cabbage you probably can't ride Tempesto.

 

[coasterFREAK]

No the seats are smaller do if you can't fit in Apollo you definitely won't be able to ride Tempesto

 

[Thomas]

The harness extenders should be helpful for larger guests.

 

[Zimmy]

is that really a thing?

 

[Thomas]

Yes, I believe they go between the OTSR buckle and the lap bar to accommodate larger chest sizes.

 

[Zimmy]

so no help for me.

Does anyone know if workers are riding tempesto today? And if they are has anyone here riden it?

That editing was horrid, but it looked fast as crap so thats a plus!
