For me, FoF and Vortex are the two rides that are much better this year. I don't know if FoF also got new wheels or a similar refurbishment, but both rides feel to me much smoother this year than the last few years. The lines are still a problem, so I only ride FoF early in the day or when the crowds are extra light.

Haha I got to the gate at 8:30, I ran to Diamondback, walked on. Then I went to Banshee and waited for 20 for the rope to drop. Walked on that. Then I went Panda Express at 11, waited 20 min vs 2 hours. I got a lot done opening day and miraculously avoided any line longer than 40 min (Diamondback at 3:00 and Banshee for front row at 8:15). Unless you count the hour you waited for Diamondback (at the front gate). But its only human nature to treat that as a freebie
