I have officially been on one hundred and fifty unique roller coasters in my lifetime. What a pleasure to make this absolutely stunning attraction into a personal milestone.
we got a front row ride, a back row ride, and two more laps this morning for good measure. this thing absolutely fucks. it is just that good. carowinds is a park with a LOT of problems but fury aināt one of them. the ops are tremendous, the shop and surrounding area are nice to spend time in, the special themed dippin dots flavor fuckin slaps, and the ride experience is just killer.
the treble clef was my most anticipated element this week and it absolutely did not disappoint. fury hauls through every single aspect of its layout. i greyed out at the bottom of the first hill during my back row run and it felt fantastic. having only done hyper coasters thus far, itās wild just how much more intense this experience was. but itās intense in this really unique wayāthereās almost a clarity to it. itās buttery smooth, it doesnāt rock or jiggle, it doesnāt throw you into any restraints, it doesnāt hurt at all. even though i was stapled into the seatāshout out to every buff ride op who has helped my fat thighs fit on this thingāit was just utterly pleasant. i never thought iād say that i could marathon a giga coaster, but here i am. i could marathon this. in fact, iām going to, tonight, when we get night rides.
this is everything i like about roller coasters. this is a machine designed to make you feel forces that are otherwise impossible to feel. in the front row, the wind in your face, the feeling of flying, itās just⦠itās magical. itās not my favoriteāvelocicoaster is really just that goodābut itās my new number 2. if you like roller coasters you need to come ride this at some point in your life. itās just absolutely incredible. iām sure millennium force and intimidator 305 and leviathan and orion are all going to kick my ass but man. this is just something else. and to have it be number 150? what an absolute privilege.
also just. coaster con made this thing so much more fun. the friends we made earlier this week encouraged me to get on even though i didnāt fit the test seat, and gave me plus sized rider tips to get in. the ride ops knew we were enthusiasts and busted their asses to get two clicks. the entire station was chanting ā1-5-0ā as we dispatched. what a special and unique experience. i feel truly grateful.
iāll have more pics of the milestone celebration later. s tier. top 3. credit 150.
