i really can't believe they pulled this off. i was a HIGE skeptic about zamperla behind this ride but they knocked it out of the park. so much better than the OG
Exaaaactly!!! Currently I live in Abu Dhabi across from Sea World. Just left the states, Ohio my home state, in April and will not be returning until summer 2025...😢
Really hate being the pessimist but I just don’t understand everyone’s raving reviews. I rode this 3 times, front, back and middle and while yes the reverse launch and spike are cool it still doesn’t even belong in the same conversation as Dragster. That 0-120mph launch was everything. And the “rollback” is a total joke. Dragster was 9/10. TT2 is 6/10. Very disappointing.
It happens sometimes. Myself I have a few attractions people rave about that I find just average. Raptor is my second least favorite B&M Invert (still love my rides on it) and Spider man at IOA is just an average dark ride to me. I don’t get the hype on either one, but there is just something about them that others love that doesn’t click for me.
I'm in the same boat man! I think swing launches are overrated, in fact I find coasters with no launch at all more exciting. All they did was make Kingda Ka and Storm Runner better. I predict TT2 will be popular in its opening year but that will die down very quickly after that. Much like Project/Intimidator 305 and Skyrush. The only thing actually look forward to is for Taylor Bybee (Coaster Studios) to make a parody so they can make jokes about our gripes (weak launch) and wanting the OG back. But at least we get more content from Taylor! Guess CP will be home to the 2 most overrated coasters, the other being Millennium Force.
That rollback looks so scary! Is it really not that bad? I loved dragster but honestly I hate going backward on rides and I imagine the g forces going backward are so awful it scares me into not wanting to ride…. Or am I just plain wrong?
@@chapinsigourney922 the rollback itself is very gentle. Easily the calmest part of the ride. The reverse launch is crazy but there is no strong g forces. The pull up into the spike is a little intense, but I’ve for sure experienced far stronger g forces. The intensity of Top Thrill 2 mainly comes from the insane speed and heights.
I have a Blue Yeti. I might have to play with the settings. I wish I could justify a nice expensive microphone, but it’s hard to justify when you can’t make ad revenue yet.
This thing is way overhyped. The launches are week. It sounds like a golf cart taking off. No real themeing themeing. The midway is meh, they could have done better. It has a rattle. Its not that great.
Your content is great! You should definitely change the logo from "PP" though lol, that conjures up a different image
Nonetheless, great stuff!
I didn’t even make that connection haha. Side note but can you figure out what coaster my logo is?

Me too. I was pretty optimistic from the start, but I didn’t think this thing would kick this much ass. It’s really intense.

The only thing left is to see its reliability. Things are positive on that front so far.
@@chriskay1449 even when I got unlucky and it went down 3 times during my first ride, it wasn’t down long. About 15 min each time.

you need a new microphone but nice video
