Re: The Intimidator Experience Thread

I was there yesterday. We rode Intimidator twice. Both rides were the worst I've had on it. The second trim really slowed it down on the way back...really disappointing compared to opening day.

I had my best rides yet before work today. Very, very little trim action and it was all thighs on the restraints. KILLER airtime.

... the 1st time, and she rode 3 times in a row LOL. Anways, no ride on intimidator today for the first time ever... :( oh well. I heard the second trim hit while in the kid park but very light. Glad they have modified it or whatever to hardly hit anymore...

... it was nice meeting up with Max and meeting Cindy and Wormy/Doug. Intimidator was running much better than my first ride. Out of 4 rides, the 2nd trim only caught hard once (and that ride sucked). But it is a different beast at nite, and our last nite ride, right before the park closed, with me ...

... and Doug (Wormy). I got 4 rides, 3 nite rides, and all of them but one were outstanding. That ride eats thru people with 3 trains running. The 2nd trim hit hard on my third ride, but barely hit on the others, and on our last ride of the nite, I didn't feel it hit at all. This made all the difference ...

After working on one of the trains they were adding it back on at around 7:30. Some good rides tonight except for the one time the 2nd trim caught us.

Saw a few familiar faces tonight :)

We are going at opening, then leaving during the pm showers :)
And then coming back probably around 6 - close

Today gave some great rides and that 2nd trim never caught us a single time today

I wonder if they are going to keep that 2nd trim off now because it seems like its been off this past weekend.... Maybe they will just keep it off...

... by so much wind in your face on AC as on Intimidator. I really didn't come out of my seat that much so I was a little dissapointed. The 2nd trim was off all 6 times I rode so im happy with that. It's a great ride and one of my favorite coasters though :)

... I think it'll be a while before anything touches either of those. The restraints really don't bother me, I can handle a little neck chopping. The trim doesn't bother me either, there's still plenty of floating air on that hill. For the record Intimidator is my #10 steel and my #2 B&M hyper ...

Well myself and my daughter got some rides in late Sunday afternoon. The first trim hit very lightly and added to the "floaty time" on that monster hill. To our delight, the second trim was off. Add that with a strong tailwind and you have great air and ...

Lets start with the bad. I HATE the restraints. I think they are unnecessary. I HATE the trim. I think it is unnecessary. K, now for the good. The airtime on the first hill is AMAZING, and the first drop isn't too bad either. The transitions while taken at ridiculous ...

... your camera / Iphone to get a POV on a ride in front of him either. Sunday I got some "pretty good" rides on Intimidator, with the 2nd trim not firing at all. Probably one of the best was after I ran into Wormy where we got assigned to row 6. I liked it a bit better than my row 4 ride ...

... thread, Friday I had some incredible rides on Intimidator. My first train out I had (literally) the entire back half of the train to myself. No trims came on and it was the most intense and air-filled ride to date. I've been on Intimidator 40 times now, and never have I had a bad experience ...
