Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit

[Andy]

I really enjoy this ride, and I also really like taking pictures of it to share will all of you. Here are a couple from today.

*Note: The brackets still do not have nets over the queue. Should be up later this week.

^Yeah 10 minute wait, the park was dead"

Thats all for HRRR photos for this week!

I have no idea if this has been asked but I don't understand why the ride went for so many months without nets over the queue and now they decide to put them in. Won't that also ruin the guests on the ride in the queue's view of the crowd surfer perspective?

Also, Great pics Hatetofly!

Gannon, its not about perspective, its more about safety persay.

I would LOVE to be at the parks right now and get on this with only a 10 minute wait.

Yea if someone takes a cell phone to the face, their won't be a perspective to enjoy.

A little birdie told me someone got hurt while standing under the "Crowd Surfer" element, which explains the new haste to put the nets up.

 

[BBPH]

Oh thats doesn't sound too good.

 

[Andy]

Small Update, Just to let everyone know the new nets over the crowd surfer are up and in place. They were also running five trains today and the ride was almost a walk on at one point.

 

[Bryan]

what's with all the seems

 

[BBPH]

Those are some ugly nets :/

As long as it does the job. They're finally getting the hang of running this thing.

No express as of yet but they are close to it, and today I got on twice within fifteen minutes at 11:00 am. Also the single riders is open pretty much all the time now as well.

No Express, but Single Riders works wonders, and even the normal line as been hovering below 30 minutes lately.

I felt like the line moved pretty well. It was almost always in constant motion.

It seemed to be doing good on Saturday. That is until it was my turn to ride. Something apparently went wrong since they spent about 10-15 minutes sending empty train after empty train out. Then, when I finally got to ride, I got to experience what a rough car truly is.

I'm still hoping they get everything working so it stops breaking down every Saturday...

 

[tiredoldspook]

I wait till no peak, I have ridden it 7 or 8 times in 3 trips. If the line is longer then 20 minutes I skip it. When I was there 2 weeks ago I noticed they were sending numerous cars out with out anyone in the back seats.

Stopped by the parks today, Rockit was hovering around 10-15 minute wait time with 3 RV's running, single rider line was a walk on.

I think the nets are as aesthetically pleasing as possible. Though I'm not saying they actually are aesthetically pleasing. Lol.

I also think that either the other side of Rockit gets themed to Dr. Seuss, or they put in a Dr. Seuss facade behind the Trolley ride to block Rockit. It's not an eyesore at Universal, but in IOA in Seussland, I could vomit that image up. :/

I agree, Rockit totally ruins the Suess area. When you walk past CITH, and you turn to take a picture or something else in that area, You can't take the pic due to Rockit or your view is totally focused on Rockit. Its sticks out like a sore thumb.
