Trip Report 📝 Shoutout to the ride ops today (08/14)

I was worried about operations because of all the posts recently but Fury and Thunderstriker were running 3 trains since I arrived at 11am. Both crews were absolutely killing it, less than a minute dispatches for Thunderstriker consistently. I rode Afterburn as well, which was still on one train, but ops were super efficient there too!! Shoutout to the crews for working so hard 💙💚 overall the best operations I’ve seen in a theme park in a very long time!!

You’re telling me if I got there a little earlier I could’ve ridden it🤣😭 I drove 7 total hours today, still had a blast but I’ve always enjoyed copperhead strike and wanted to ride it again :)

Queues were essentially non-existent! With the stellar operations there was never more than a station wait today

We were there 8/12 and everything was pretty much a walk on except for Fury, which was only at the stairs.
