I refuse to ride this ride anymore because I always come off with some injury.

I won't ride it anymore after I got stuck on the lift hill for a few minutes. It was so uncomfortable to be stuck at 90 degrees.

I just don't get it. I rode Rockit three times on my trip last month, and the only problem I had with it was their management with the single rider line. The ride itself was amazing, and I was surprised how fast the coaster went. Maybe they need to improve the theming of this ride, but I have no problem with this ride and definitely worth three years of waiting.

OH MY GOSH! Don't even get me started with the dang "single-rider" line! They shouldn't even have one...No one ever follows the SINGLE RIDER sign and just go in it because it looks shorter. They really need to do something about it! :mad:

The ride is fine IMO, Exempt for the first drop which messes with my head/neck.

Personally I don't think Rockit works well with a single rider line. They should replace it with the express line.

Last time I rode Rockit, I went through the regular line, and I noticed that someone who went to the single riders line got to the end of the line at the same time as me.

Yeah so I used it twice on my trip a month ago, and the first I got on easy since it was the morning. The second time I went, which was right after my first time on, was horrendous because when I got to the end of the line, it felt as if the line never existed and it was so painful! I did Rockit once more, but with the regular line. A 45 minute wait that felt like 20 minutes was better than the single rider line.

There's nothing wrong with single rider. It fills seats that would be left empty because the speed that ride is intended to run would not allow for TMs yelling for a party of 1. Just because it's slow doesn't mean it doesn't fill it's purpose. And all the people in it aren't filling the regular line.

Ah good point! Makes sense now that you say that about the speed of loading.

Most times I go on single riders and I uselly get on in about 10-15 minutes but other times i'll be in line for about 30-40 so sometimes you get on quicker and others you dont

1. Maybe once Potter Phase 2 opens and that becomes the main draw for the resort, operations will decide to open it to CW guests without fear of losing admission sales.
2. Nope

It does make sense, and I think it would be a fun idea for Universal, and increasing the popularity of Rockit. Maybe the problem with that is when the park closes at 9:30 or later and when an event like HHN goes on. Now that I think about it, this might only happen during non-peak seasons.

My friend just texted me this:

Wow, Rockit has an air leak on the brake transfer section.
