I was able to go up to the park yesterday and ride sob. While in line I ran into an old friend of mine, tom wilson who was there with ryan (whom ive never met before). We only waited about 30 min. I have to admit I was very worryied and excited to try sob again. I am a taller person and the old trains always banged up my knees. I noticed that the first row in each train seemed to have a bit more leg room so thats where I headed. I was very impressed with the ride. It still does bounce around abit in the rose boll and a few other spots but it is much more bearable. Maybe because of the track work, the lighter trains, more room in the trains or a combination of all three. It seems like it is much smoother than both The Beast and definately The Racer. I really enjoyed the first part of the ride up until the second helix then it just gets boring especailly with no airtime. All in all a much improved ride and very rideable for all.
Tom it was good to see you again and Ryan it was good to meet you. I hope we run into each other some other time at the park.
