Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

If there are guests in the queue go to the front gate. If they have the Technical Rehersal signs out go on in and enjoy the ride

I just now got your name and I feel stupid for taking so long.

They're saying it's not happening at all tonight

They had those contests that brought in the winners to ride so maybe that is happening tonight? If they had it lit it would be most impressive to the winners.

Wild photo! And yes, it did open around 9:30 tonight.

I can't post a photo tweet here? I cannot keep track of these nitty gritty rules...

The rules are the rules are the rules. No one is above the law.....Darwin's law: adapt or become extinct.

I thought they might do the contest winners last night but I guess they were sprucing up the place for them today. Good to know they are doing this still, means they should have some smoother rides in the near future.

Let us know if you get a ride after 5

We've just been let into the holding queue round the back.

[JoeCamel]

I like a few good licks but good luck to you!

I am the law.

 

[darby427]

In! Saying 60 min wait.. Trucks cycling.. Empty..

 

[JoeCamel]

2 hours later I hope you are not stuck with the witch!

 

[darby427]

Totally worth it!

 

[Mad Dog]

Totally worth it!

Tell us more. :thumbsup:

I wonder if the media invite stayed open but there won't be any public razzle-dazzle? It will be hush and behind closed doors only? Just guessing as I have no inside info on that.

I'd wager the razzle dazzle has been nixed for now out of respect for recent local tragedy. UO doesn't want to be perceived as disrespectful to the Orlando community by throwing a primate party while many in O-town are still grieving. Though, Eighth Wonder should still be giving tours to media Friday night.

Very cool ride.. I am not a screens person.. simply because kings island does not have them and thats our home and most frequented park. but after a few rides here yesterday and today, they are very cool. So yesterday we got in line when I posted and the line was rolling. One empty truck cycled and that was it.. 30 minutes later another one cycled and everyone went nuts then another 30 minutes.. nothing.. people kept getting out of line so we were moving forward. After 1 hour we were at the entrance to the inside queues. We decided to give it 45 more minutes. They kept announcing brief technical delays then finally it was an extended. Then at about 1:30 minutes of waiting, they stated cycling empty trucks and the line started roaring. After the first truck went with people you would have though we all won the lottery! From that point we were 10 more minutes in line and off we went! Great ride! I will detail it in the review section. Funniest part was on the unload platform, the gates went up and the CM's were like.. dont move while they all waited to see if the gates on the truck stayed opened. Thats all for now.. off to the pool and then back at 4 for hopefully another ride

Tell us more. :thumbsup:
