I went on it today OH LORD the roughest ride I have ever been on. It's never been that rough compared to other times I went on it.

That first drop is about the only fun thing on that coaster. I've noticed if I ride it first off in the day, it'll still be rough but I don't notice over the fact that it's the first coaster of the day feeling when you're dropping over those hills. But if i ride it a second time it's pretty awful

This used to be one my favourite coasters in Orlando when we rode it two years ago. But I have to agree with everything said about it, I rode it about four times on my last holiday. The first three times we did single rider and the first ride they let 6 of us single riders on to a train - which I thought was odd. Now I don't know why they did this but I don't think it was a coincidence it was one of the most roughest roller-coaster experience I've ever had, I guess it was the infamous rough train. The song skipped throughout the ride as well which I don't know if it was due to the violent nature of the ride or a glitch with the coaster. Anyways on all rides it was pretty rough, I enjoyed this ride as when I experienced it before it was pretty smooth. Very disappointed with it tbh.

:iagree:

The only thing I really enjoy about the ride is the fact that you can listen to music. But half the time my head is jerking back an forth so much I can barley hear the music. LOL this is no longer my favorite ride at Universal. Despicable Me all the way.

Another thing that bugs me about this ride is that the "crowd surf" goes over a part of the queue no one stands in :lol:

I'm sorry, but nothing is worth that kind of wait, let alone the Rockit.

Sorry to say thats not that bad. The queue itself is not full or even open. Every time Rockit goes down for extended periods of time they close off the fences to the entire area. What were looking at is nothing more than a 30 min wait.

An yes I know they close off the entire area but still that was a pretty long line.

Man this ride sucks!

Gotta give to operations for actually bringing umbrellas for those stuck on the brakes FOREVER in the 96 degree heat!

Yeah hopefully new trains might be back on as well... I just hope somehow they can help this ride because in all honesty I am not a fan. Brian heard my colorful thoughts of this ride first hand.
