That’s just normal jitters, I’ve seen Rapterra’s restraints act up a few times. No wheel issues so far today as far as I know

Running great today, holding a 20min line as of now, and sending both trains consistently for the past hour (knock on wood). The dedicated grouper at the station assigning rows & calling for single riders when needed helps massively. Great work KD!
I agree. Greying out at turn before whips and at turn before trim hill. Awesome ejector in multiple spots if you keep the restraint loose too.
You just wait. Make sure to drink plenty of water beforehand and tense your muscles.
I push up on my toes at the high G points. Hard to keep doing it the whole ride tho.
I haven't blacked out before on I305 so hope I do on one of my rides if it's truly more aggressive.

Is it just me or does this thing look SIGNIFICANTLY faster than it used to?
It looks EXACTLY the same speed as ever.
Agreed with @cackylack ; it seems to be just as fast as it's always been since the removal of the trims from the drop and re profiling of the first curve. Also you shouldn't give views to people who blatantly violate park policies like that.
Those look like they were recorded with Meta glasses, if they were strapped I don’t see the problem. You might as well refuse to look at any “unauthorized” construction photos

They can get permission however they have to reach out to the park in advance. You’re not able to do it at the park day of like BGW. Also, East Coasters definitely does not get permission. If you’ll notice a lot of his POVs (particularly earlier ones), they start/end when his camera is not visible to the operators.
Why start the camera before or after anyway? The ride doesn't start till the lift and it ends on the brakes. He also has been invited personally out to parks and filmed. To assume he just never gets permission is crazy. The guy in the pantherian POV possibly got permission, you dont know, he clearly has some sort of full strap holding it judging by the stillness. So im supposed to feel bad for watching coaster POVs?

I should clarify that rather, in the past he has not gotten permission. He may have changed now but initially he did not.
Got a few laps in this morning. So good having this ride back in operation. I think they did a great job with the retheming and I really enjoy the station music upon leaving. I thought I didn’t like the color scheme from afar but it looks great while riding it.
Huge win for the park to have it back up.

Not that I noticed. It was also early in the morning so maybe not necessary after just a few runs in. Ride ops were crushing it though.
