So no back trains. Are they dispatching faster? I remember last year being very slow.

Wow...Planet Snoopy is packed.

EDIT: Kings Island just posted this to Twitter-

First 1,000 riders on Woodstock Gliders and Snoopy's Space Buggies get a first riders t-shirt on Opening Day.

OK, that's tempting. But my wallet still says no. :(

That's a really cute use of that building.

I'm liking how International Street is the same as It was the first time I walked through the gate, but spiffier and updated at the same time.

As far as the whole Diamond"stack" comments, realize this is literally the first day that most of the crew has been on the ride with actual guests on it and not in "training mode."

Know that I'm not making excuses, but I'm being realistic. Diamondback is more noticeable IMHO because the popularity.

Okay.

All important question.

Snapping.

Yes or nay?

Eh... maybe. I didn't get any good snaps, but then again, I've never achieved a snap on any scooters anywhere, so maybe I just don't know the right technique. However, they feel identical to the ones at Cedar Point.

In addition to snapping, is it like CP's with the incredibly slow stopping, and the requirement of the ride op to unlock your seatbelt?

Yes and yes.

About the Woodstock Gliders first riders t-shirts: someone on Facebook was complaining that people with Fast Lane were getting multiple t-shirts on Banshee last year, which stinks, but what I want to know is did they start giving t-shirts during ERT or once the park officially opened?

I ended up not riding them tonight, and now that I know about the shirts, I'm eager to make them first tomorrow, but wondered if I should wait till 10?

Edit: heh, posted at the same time about the same thing :)

Yes, the Banshee first rider shirts were being given out during "ERT". Of course, there really wasn't an ERT session on Banshee that day, just a chance for all the Gold and Platinum Passholders to immediately form a three-hour line before the regular folks were allowed in. :P
