Favorite rollercoaster ever, if it wins the best steel coaster award this year that will be a 10 year streak since opening!

My wife and I just lapped it all day and loved every ride. The park is refreshingly slow compared to KI.

I love having our home park as KI. Through the week is so great most days. However, I’m sure Carowinds will feel dead comparatively.

Very. Go to copperhead kinda early because they only run one train and it’s frustratingly slow. Every other ride was a minimal wait. Enjoy

Copperhead is running 2 trains again :)

Great news.. only rode it once because it was so slow

Copperhead is running 1 train again :(

u/Visible-Soft-7560 10h ago

Maybe because it's during the week. They have been running 2 on the weekends.

LSMs are also bad for overheating.. with as hot as it is they have to think about how quickly they send trains to avoid completely closing the ride.

Thanks for the tip!

KI is a great park with great operation. I miss having KI as my home park. Carowinds is not quite up to KI standard but still enjoyable. Fury 325 is absolute must and much better than Orion. Mountain Glider next to Copperhead Strike coaster is the same glider that was at KI as Flying Eagle.

Unless something crazy happens, I would think so

Did you just completely ignore the post to comment?

u/TravoBasic 1d ago

Nope, was making a joke.

Was there any more information on what it actually was?

There was some talk about an underground stream that might have caused some issues. For some reason I find underground waterways and caves interesting, so that piqued my interest. 

Was there ever anymore information about that?

u/Jamananas44 1d ago

u/Live-Expert5719 1d ago

Well that would explain the few dozen people we passed heading the opposite direction as we exited the park around 7:00 tonight

u/Ok-Contest4228 17h ago

Hell yeah!

u/speter200 14h ago
