Talking What ride will you ride first this spring?

On what ride will go on or head to as soon as the gate opens up this spring for the first time. Or when you get free time if you are the one standing at the control box. Mine will most likely be the Beast at PKI.

Probably Borg at Carowinds for me because the line gets too awfully long during the day so the best time to ride is right in the morning. Run to the line so you'll get the first train.

Then I'll go and check out everything that's new and then sit at Top Gun for about an hour depending on the line which should be short and move fast.

Superman at SFA for me(assuming it's running on opening day) because it's simply the best steel coaster in the park.

I always try to get in two laps first thing every time I hit the park during the season so this year will be no different than the last 4 years have been.

If I get to SFStL for their opening day it will probably be Mr. Freeze, if I don't it will probably be Hulk@IOA.

Hmmm, depends on when SFNE opens. If it opens in early April, then S:RoS. If it opens in mid-April, then it will be a coaster at GADV. I am banking on the newly painted Chiller (hopefully Batman if it's open) or Nitro.

Probably nothing really special out of the ordinary. It will probably be Superman: Ultimate Flight or Viper, both at SFGAm.

First of the season Cannonball - Its a tradition
First at SFOG georgia cyclone - I know I give this coaster hell due to it being os rough but its also a tradition to ride it first at the first visit to the park. It usually is also the last ride on it each season.
