Incredible Hulk Roughness

[Jakemeister]

I remember riding it years ago on a particularly cold day, to the point where it only opened for 3 hours. King_K. was there, but idk if he remembers. I think the ride was honestly smoother. It has to have something to do with the heat and expanding metals.

Oh yeah, I remember. Trust me.

I think it runs pretty damn well in the cold, lol.

I don't care about the roughness, i'll be riding it all day!

I really need to give this ago at night too

I don't consider Hulk rough, but it does have some segments (turns) that cause a bit of whiplash.

Absolutely. But you can usually prepare for those after riding it a few times. Definitely tougher for first-timers though.

I've never ever considered the Hulk to be rough. But with all this talk about the back portion being the worst, and mentioning 'whiplash', I'm thinking maybe my definition of roughness is different. I consider rough to be bumpy, which I have never thought the Hulk to be (in any row, at any point in the ride). Now if we're talking the back portion, I would actually say it's smoother because it goes slower, but the sharp turns and quick maneuvers don't really make it 'rough' per se. In fact, I like the quick directional changes, it gives the ride some spice. In any case, if that's the problem, sitting more towards the front will alleviate that problem. Other than that, I can't see how anyone thinks the ride is rough, as in bumpy or jerky.

There is variance in roughness between some of the trains on the Hulk. And if you're riding on a colder day, the trains don't run along the track as fast.

Hulk is a very strange beast when your talking about how rough the ride is. It very much depends on the current weather, time of day, what row you've chose and what train your on.

The worst is to ride at the end of a hot day in the last row just before the train goes out of service for it's annual inspection.

No matter how rough this ride gets, its still my favorite roller coaster anywhere.

Agreed! I never even find it rough. Though I do focus on keeping my head back the entire time, and it really helps.
