Hey all!

I know a lot of people don't write TR's, but I had a few things I'd like to share and want to work on my writing, so here we go.

I arrived at the park shortly after 9. It was fairly empty, got in okay at 9:30 and lined up just outside Medieval Faire until 10. This is when things got a bit out of hand. As soon as the rope is a centimetre down, people are running as fast as possible to Leviathan. I still got there pretty close in line, only a few minute wait (I was right in front of the rope, practically). Why don't they walk people to Levi like they did at SPPN? There was a significantly less amount of people at preview night. They did, however, walk people through the queue. Just a minor issue that annoyed me. I got in the 3rd row and dispatched for a pretty fast 33rd ride on Leviathan (my only ride that day). After that, my friend and I head to Dragon Fire for a quick, but still fun, ride on the classic Arrow Corkscrew Coaster. We then traversed from MF to Action Zone to hit up Sledgehammer and Behemoth. Sledgehammer was AMAZING. A small 1-cycle wait is well worth it. I'm glad CW got it fixed up. After Sledge was an ejector-airtime filled ride on Behemoth in the back. I will be the first (that I know of) to say I prefer Behemoth over Leviathan. I guess I'm more of an airtime fan than speed fan. Next was a walk-on for Minebuster for an average ride. Nothing special, nothing to complain about. Another (amazing) ride on Sledge and Behemoth was it before grabbing our Coke Freestyle refills and heading to Little Caesars for lunch.

After lunch, with the sun beating down on us for a large part, we waited about 40 minutes for WWC. Shoot us. I got absolutely drenched, hitting pretty much every element including the waterfall. Luckily, I had a change of clothes and switched into some dry clothes. We head back to Medieval Faire, but not before grabbing some Tiny Tom donuts. From there it was an INTENSE and THRILLING cycle on Shockwave and a rough lap on Wild Beast. We head back to Action Zone for another cycle on the 'hammer and Behemoth. A stop at Windseeker to get my heart racing was next, then it was back to Sledgehammer for one more ride, then completing my day with a not-as-rough trip on WB, two walk ons for DF and then even a ride on The Rage. Yes, The Rage. Deal with it. I was exhausted a this point and our ride was already here, so we said bye to the 'Land for the day, and that concludes my poorly written TR. :D.

I like the trip reports, and I think yours was written just fine...

And I usually find on WWC that having an extra change of clothes guarantees I won't get wet... And not bringing one guarantees I'm going under the waterfall...

And for all the things CW does well, the handling of rope drop is something that needs a lot of improvement...
