My Ride List:

Vortex

Flight of Fear

Firehawk

The Racer

Adventure Express

DeliriumDrop Tower

Son of Beast(if open)InvertigoFlight Deck

Night Time

The Beast

Backlot Stunt Coaster

LAST RIDE

DIAMOND-BACK

Are you talking about a list of rides for your first visit of the year?

For 99% of my visits, I go in a counter-clockwise loop around the park and hit the same stops every time, so unless I change things up this year then it will be:

DB

Beast

Shake Rattle & Roll

Vortex

Action Theater?

Zephyr

Flight of Fear

Racer

(occasional visit to Outer Hanks)

AE

Flight Deck

Drop Tower

Delirium

Invertigo

I just go to whatever has the shortest lines mainly. I go to either Diamondback or The Beast first though always. I also have to get a ride in on Drop Tower every time I am at the park.

I almost always went to Diamondback first this year, and it'll most likely be the same for this season. I seem to make plans for what I'm going to ride in what order (makes me more excited), and than not follow my plan at all. I also go all over the park in random orders, example- I'll ride Diamondback than go to Son of Beast and than Drop Zone, than to Flight of Fear, than Vortex, than Firehawk, than to Adventure Express, and than to Diamondback again, ect..

I have found though a better plan is to hit Firehawk first to avoid the long lines about mid day.

I think that I will do random rides opening day.

1. walk thru Planet Snoopy w/ rides on (new name for scooby-doo and the haunted castle)

after that i roam around stopping where it looks like a good idea

First, I will run to Firehawk, and get the first ride of the day. (As I normally do)

Second, I will ride Adventure Express at least once. (Every time I go, I ride AE soon after I arrive, half way through the day, and have three or four night rides right before I leave.)

Third, I will go to Planet Snoopy, ride the redone SDATHC, Beastie, Reptar, Wild Thornberries, and then linger for an hour or two.

Fourth, I will ride Diamondback, front seat, followed by The Beast, front seat.

Fifth, I'll ride the Crypt, to see if anything has changed.

Sixth, I'll marvel at the height of Son of Beast.

Methinks I'm looking too far ahead...

Old thread, but I figure I would bring it back up since we have Banshee this year, what will you ride, what will you NOT ride?

I shall not ride Woodstock's Whirlybirds.

However I WILL ride, in this order, :

Banshee

Bat

Vortex

Diamondback

Maybe The Beast. ( it depends if the line is 5hrs long or not)

Delirium

Night:

Banshee

Delirium

Diamondback.

Whenever I first go to the park this season, I plan on at least riding Firehawk and Banshee first (in that order), and then maybe Adventure Express, Delirium, Vortex and then whatever else I feel like riding that day. I'll probably catch some shows as well if they are playing. 15 days!

My rule when visiting any theme park is to ride as you get to something, do not zig zag.

So, my list will be in an order dependent on which way I go in the morning.
