Visited the park for the first time this year, here's what I rode:
Intimidator, 2x: Man, last year this thing was flying. The airtime was abundant and the ride zipped through the course. Today, it seemed to lag a little and the trims hit hard. Still fun, but I may have to re-evaluate my top 20.
Fury325, 3x: Great as always. The airtime didn't seem as strong on this either but it was still plenty of fun. However, on my third ride (2nd row, right side), there was a nasty rattle.
Drop Tower: It never fails to scare the living **** out of me, still awesome.
Rock 'N' Roller: First time ever riding a music express, it was very enjoyable! The laterals were stronger than I thought they'd be. It was very reminiscent of Peanuts Pirates, but that's a given considering it had the same manufacturer. My second favorite ride in the county fair.
Do-Si-Do: This was my first troika, and I gotta be honest, it was a bit of a snooze. Not bad, but not anything to write home about.
Zephyr: It was a swing ride. Meh.
Electrospin, 2x: Ah, the headlining attraction for the new area. My first ride, I thought it was pretty fun albeit not as intense as I was expecting. My second ride was insane. I think this might be my fourth or fifth favorite ride in the park, and it's insanely re-rideable.
Windseeker: Always a relaxing ride with great views and good music.
Afterburn: It's still my second favorite coaster in the park, and still firmly within my top five.
Overall I had a great time, and the park now has two extra attractions that I'll make an attempt to ride every time I visit the park.
In other news, the pool for Whitewater Falls has yet to be drained, so whatever they're putting their in the future, they aren't in a rush to get it built any time soon. I would expect a Vortex conversion and a few more Planet Snoopy attractions for next year.
Coaster Count: 63
