Yeah the rain has come to a drizzle now. Single riders was open so I went on a second time, wait was about 20 minutes. The regular queue said 45. I might go a 3rd time ;)

Single riders... how does that play out? Do you actually walk through unload as I have pondered?

Do you get a peek into the witch's chamber in the singles line? How do you join the board point?

The single rider line ends quite close to where the regular line loads. Maybe I'm not reading your question right but you don't go through anyone exiting. Hope that helped! If you have any other questions, I'll be glad to answer them.

It's very easy to see the witch. You should have no problem at all being able to see her. The single rider line goes to the right of the witch, so if you look to your left you'll have a perfect view of that whole regular queue room. The regular queue zig-zags in front of her and continues to the left. There were only a few people behind us so I stayed behind to watch her do her magic. My dad thought she was a real person at first!

You don't merge with the regular queue at all in singles - they fill up the rows with larger parties first, then adds the single riders. Imagine a rectangular room, the regular queue is on the left, splits into left and right (front rows and back rows, respectively). The single rider line is at the "bottom" of the rectangle. Unless there's more than one single rider for one row, you will most likely be on the left side of the truck.

I sat in row 9, 2nd from the right (normal queue), and in row 12, in about the middle of the truck twice (singles). I didn't have any problems seeing the final animatronic!

Hope that helps :D

I've been to plenty of soft opening over the years
. It's clear this attraction isn't ready for soft openings.. got a long way to go before it's ready for prime time

I hear they have single rider. What is the story on having express when it opens for real, not just soft openings.

Can I ask why you think so? Is it delayed/closed?

If anyone complains about the Kong AA, just remember;
At least he isn't a disco fanatic.

Just a fun little fyi.

There is still a really cool effect this attraction has that hasn't been used yet... Ever...

Hopefully it'll be running by the grand opening but we'll see.

Did they get a taste of slide-burning mayhem and decided to let people torch Wet 'N Wild on NYE?
