Benin Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Lap bars not locking isn't a major issue, just slows everything down, Depends whether they lock during the actual ride... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackR Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 I noticed a bucket collecting oily, grime stuff as it dripped from the big silver cylinders (are they the air pressure tanks? I'm no engineering genius guy) yesterday. Needless to say the bucket was about 2/3 full and this was at about 4:00pm. I doubt it is supposed to leak so I'm guessing the dripping is a minor problem too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis. Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Rush started the day running both swings but by about 4(ish) the one nearest the control booth was down. I may have imagined this but the other swing felt a lot more forceful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Personally I think rush is too short, you only get about 3 full swings BigBobJones, dragon2000 and Coaster 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkadder312 Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Personally I think rush is too short, you only get about 3 full swings I agree with you it is too short at least 5 full swings it needs we all know it won't go back to the 7-9 swings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPGG Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 An extra 2 swings is so insignificant compared to loading and launching time though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rOsSwA28 Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Does anyone know what is wrong with RUSH recently? It First started on two swings then got so badly out of sync, so it went to one swing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPJames Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Does anyone know what is wrong with RUSH recently? It First started on two swings then got so badly out of sync, so it went to one swing? ONE SWING!! That is not even worth going on unless you get to stay on for another ride...

Mitchada04 Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Rush is clearly having quite a few problems this year (surprising as Slammer has yet to have a major one *touches all wood around*). I wouldn't be surprised if the shorter ride cycle is to try and lower maintanence issues. Strangely, the one swing that is working is the one that takes longer to stop.

Cal Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 On saturday both swings were working fine, but at the end one takes longer to stop, the one nearer to the control box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marhelorpe Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 After visiting yesterday, it was obvious to a lot of people who saw it being tested with both swings in the early morning that there is a big problem with it's 2nd swing. Whilst the other was working perfectly fine (in terms of speed, height and sync) the other was performing horribly. The 2nd swing didn't even reach 90 degrees at it's maximum height, instead, it only reached about 70 degrees instead, whilst the other swing was reaching about 100-110 degrees. Because of this, the testing sequences were horribly out of sync too. Whilst this isn't a new problem with Rush (as it was partially noticable last year) this is without doubt the lowest maximum swing angle I have ever seen on Rush. Since this problem wasn't solved last closed season and was performing terribly yesterday, I won't be surpirsed if Rush will mostly run on one swing for the next few months. (Also, why are the queueline speakers silent again when they worked fine last year? Wrong topic, but thought I'd point it out.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 So was rush testing with 2 swings yestoday and only running with 1? And is it the one thats closest to the control box not working? On saturday it closed for about 10 mins because it broke down, still ran with 2 trains after though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marhelorpe Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Yep, both swings were being tested in the early morning, but once opened only 1 was running all day. No, it's the swing near the air gates that was closed all day and was having severe diffculties last morning and during last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEALTHDAN Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Good to hear its more forceful though just wish the cycle was a bit longer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshC. Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 It was open today. I saw it on one swing in the afternoon but I think it was on two swings in the morning - not too sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan9 Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 It tested on two swings in the morning but was only open on one. When it was open it barely reached 90 degrees too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
