Talking SFNE June 19 (Tornado 30 Times)

Wow, what a day is was. The weather was supposed to be 65 and rainy but it turned out to be 80 with a blinding sun.

I got there at about 11:15 and headed for S:ROS. The line was like 2 hours so I headed for the waterpark. The first ride I went on was Tornado.

Wow! This ride is a must ride. There was nobody in line so I went straight on. The first drop... oh my god... it is so steep, your tube comes of the slide for a second and the airtime is incredable. After the extremely fun first drop you launch up a side of the funnel. You go almost vertical depending on your weight. Then you go up another side. You go up 4 times before a splash landing below. It's funny listening to all the holy sh1!s and a whole lot of other profanity of the people riding for the first time. Wow.

I also went down the blue slide of Cannonball. That slide has a ton of G's. On Hurricane falls I went on blue, green, purple, and yellow. I also hit Monsoon Lagoon and Commotion Ocean.

After the waterpark, I went on B:TDK. I sat in the back. The zero-g was awesome like always and the ride wasn't as rough as others say it is back there. It was running 2 trains with a 30 minute wait (Horendous load times).

Next was DT. Same old same old. The pressure on the legs = I also hit Chaos for the first time this year.

Next was Mind Eraser. Not much, just your typical SLC. 1 train operation with a 45 minute wait.

Next was PSP. Fun ride on this.I also hit Twister down in Rockville. They are running the long flip program. I got 5 flips.

Next was S:ROS. I went for the back. 5 minute wait-line in station. Because of the short wait I went on again in front. 10 min wait here. 2 train operation with misters on.

After this I said well, what the hey, I'll head back to Tornado. This time I went on 25 times nonstop. I also went backwards a few times. Something else. Jeez, it seems like there's more airtime going backwards.

Now I was extremely tired with huge blisters on my feet. I went on wave swinger, Thunderbolt, NESW, Time Warp, Cyclone (trims were on with a 5 minute wait. 1 train.) Flashback (jumped right onto a train). I also went on Tomahawk which people were treating it like it was the best ride in the park.

I went down to Superman once more in back before park closing.

Tornado sounds hilarious. Can't wait to ride it. We have something here where you go way down, then way up, then you valley, rocking back and forth around 12 times. It's fun. I like the airtime, so Tornado sounds like fun.

Hmmm, I have family in Fresno, and we went to this park called "Wild Water Adventures", and I think you're talking about the "Sidewinder", right?
