You REALLY hate this ride, don't you?! 
Those sorry SOBs. I'm pissed because I went today to try to ride for the first time. One of the workers must have sneezed on the car so they had to run water dummy tests all day to recalibrate it.
I don't hate it I have ridden it 7 times. I just am enjoying seeing Universal trying to figure this thing out. I mean you paid 10's of millions of dollars for a roller coaster and you can't make it work. Other parks have had the same issues, Busch Gardens with Drachen Fire, Six Flags with Deja Vu any idea were those coasters are now?
Some one at the Roller Coaster Company needs to be brought to Universal and Fired in front of a crowd of coaster fans.

This ignorant chick tried to feed me a load of bull. I went up to ask if they would reopen later in the day and of course she said no. At that point my family joined me and commented on how it had been closed Friday as well. She flat out said it wasn't closed Friday and hasn't been at all.

Maybe they were installing the Backyard Bone element.
Anyone familiar?
No idea to be honest. It's going to dip below 60 degrees for a few days and Rockit apparently won't run when it gets below that mark.
Since I've gotten my camera fixed, and finally figured out the complex aspect ratios, I'll try to contribute next week. :thumbs: Or tomorrow.
That's a big fail for Universal if they have to close their newest attraction, which "opened" in Summer, for the busiest week of the year. For no other reason than the temperature is below 60. How many visitors are going to swallow that?
