FoF96" Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Hello guys i just arrived for my 4th trip to the park this year and I don't know if it's just me being unlucky or if it really is something that everyone has noticed. Out of the four times I have been I have yet to see WindSeeker operate this year. Is there something going on with it causing extended downtime or have I been unlucky? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph88 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Ride operations are suspended during high winds or heavy rain. I only just got my first ride on a WindSeeker a couple weeks ago! Try to pick a day when the forecast isn't too windy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoF96" Posted August 20, 2015 Author Share Posted August 20, 2015 Is this also the case for Drop Tower? It is also sitting idle right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny1388 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Is this also the case for Drop Tower? It is also sitting idle right now. I don't know that winds is the case for it being idle today, but I can assure you I've seen the ride shut down many times due to wind 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdude86 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Agree I think it's just timing. I've been twice so far this year and both times it was running. Once early summer and once last week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtk1378 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Whenever I see WindSeeker shut down first thing I say is "Well, looks like WindSeeker found its wind today". I still have yet to ride it because the few times I have been to the park with my daughter who isn't tall enough to ride it it has been shut down. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian Job 2005 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 So once it seeks and finds its wind, it shuts down because its job is done. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick_Plummer Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 With some modifications, the can make a much larger version of Canada's Wonderland's new ride on WindSeeker's tower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calakapepe Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Through the year I've been able to ride it whenever i had the impulse to. I've done it 3 times this year. . Drop Tower seems like it's been down way more often than WindSeeker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
