      I go to carowinds about every month since i live 2.5 hours away and the dispatches are always super fast! except once when someone was holding their backpack in their lap and they refused to get off and put it in the bin thing xD

      Probably the best dispatch ever.

    @tdotson95 6 лет назад +238

    I've worked at Carowinds during the summer, they tell us to go as fast and safely as we can with dispatching, usually we want to go really fast but the guest sometimes are completely clueless when they leave their brains at the door and go incredibly slow

      love Carowinds. Thanks for all that you do, theme parks are a magical place where adults and children can get away from BS for a little bit. Plus i've never feared for my safety at Carowinds, been going there for over twenty years now. Definitely can't say the same for state fairs.

    This video makes me appreciate the general public in the UK. Over here the get on rides pretty speedy and don't complain about restraints and what not. The ops staff on Nemesis are like Fury's. They get the trains out super fast and can get the ques down to less than 20 mins on extremely busy days.

    My dad and I nicknamed Carolina Goldrusher "The Bee Coaster" because one time when we were riding, we sat at the brake run afterwards for a little bit and it was enough to get a small swarm of carpenter bees flying around. They were about 7-10 feet away and weren't dangerously close to the train, but a group of girls in the rows behind us started flailing and squealing just like Nicholas Cage. It was hilarious! We were stuck next to the bees for about five minutes waiting for the train in the station to dispatch, but we (Dad and I, obviously not the girls!) had this for entertainment while we were waiting!
    Oops; I think I just told you the dispatch time, didn't I? ;-) This video's verdict on Goldrusher pretty much sums it up.

  • @EmmaGranger99
    @EmmaGranger99 6 лет назад +1

    When I went, Hurler took a ridiculously long time to dispatch. Didn't help that they were only running one train. Carolina Goldrusher also took an insane amount of time.

  • @dyedshirt3206
    @dyedshirt3206 4 года назад +2

    the thing to keep in mind here is that most guests could care less how long they're taking because guess what? no matter what, the ride ops have to wait for them. a lot of these dispatch times could be far slower.

      Report Account all of these dispatch videos are because of operations which includes ride ops, dispatch, and riders. You can’t say a verdict seemed to be iffy because of riders, because riders always have an influence and that’s the point the video is trying to get across.

  • @brianmacdonald7297
    @brianmacdonald7297 6 лет назад +4

    When I went in August, Fury, Intimidator, and Afterburn had very quick dispatches. Fury's was almost scary how quickly they dispatched it. Vortex, Carolina Cyclone, and Carolina Goldrusher were not particularly great dispatches, but decent. Hurler, Ricochet And Nighthawk were in the middle of the pack. Woodstock Express, Flying Cobras, and Flying Ace Aerial Chase had very slow operations.

    I honestly think you guys are very soft reviewing those operations. Like any B&M coaster (except flying & stand up) should be dispatched at LEAST in 40 seconds ... I’m from Belgium and my home park (Walibi Belgium) dispatches a woodie, a Vekoma Boomerang & SLC and more in like max 40-50 seconds ...

    If you guys are watching this in 2019, you know the Copperhead Strike is open. Guests are told to push their harnesses down, and the workers will come around and buckle your lap bar. They do it within 30 seconds, and you’re then leaving the station.

    This Tuesday was a great day to go cause everyone thought there we’re gonna be storms but it turns out there wasn’t and the employees let us ride Fury, Intimidator, After burn and so on like 3-4 times in a row _/‘OoO’\_

    Yes, carowinds does have good operations. Although goldrusher used to have good operations when I rode it a couple of years ago. And now it’s just bad, I would say the goldrusher could use improvement. And some other roller coasters in that area.

    Is anyone else a little unnerved at the Vortex dispatcher? “Cleared for dispatch, I guess.” I GUESS??? 😂 i don’t think I’d like to hear that. Might as well just say “yeah, it might be okay to send you off, so good luck!”

    Why do they always say "dispatch" in England they never do that. Infact they also never warn you of the closing airgates.

  • @dylanm4436
    @dylanm4436 5 лет назад

    I went a few days ago, it had the worst operations I have ever seen... Fury had a 3 minute dispatch time, Carolina Goldrusher and Flying Cobras had 4 minute dispatches. The only acceptable one was Copperhead Strike which had around 1 minute dispatch times. I'm gonna stick to Busch Gardens lol

    As a former Carowinds employee, Fury was Carowinds baby and was always running super fast!!! Working at Nighthawk was so miserable because of how long it took for people to cross the train and get buckled. Even when you hustle the rider, they seem to just move slower at nighthawk!! But Carowinds goal is always safety and thus, some rides just load slower than they should, especially since 16 and 17 year olds may be working these coasters and pay is pretty much minimum wage, it causes seats to have to be rechecked!

    I went to scarowinds for my birthday in 2021 with my parents, my best friend, and her parents. We got the last ride on Fury, right before the park closed for scarowinds at 5:00. We walked in the queue and we were going up that hill in less than 30 seconds. That was the best experience I’ve ever had on a coaster.

  • @100DollarHeadache

    Was Carolina Cyclone running one train? Because when I went, Carolina Cyclone stacked on the brake run worse than Anaconda, which in turn usually has worse stacking than the other three Arrow loopers I have ridden (Viper at Magic Mountain, Corkscrew at Valleyfair, Loch Ness Monster).

    Carowinds is the closest “real” amusement park to me. Family kingdom is closer but they aren’t a big and real amusement park like Carowinds. I love Carowinds and I grew up going there. I’m about to go again next week. Can’t wait to ride the copperhead for the first time

    When I worked on Raptor at CP our goal was 40 second dispatches and we usually hit that no problem. The biggest delay are guests that have bags etc. or guests that don't clear the platform in a timely manner.

  • @jessied1984
    @jessied1984 6 лет назад

    Been to Carowinds several times over the last 2 years and their loading/unloading for Goldrusher has been between 3-4 minutes at times. This past Sunday night we timed it at 4 minutes 23 seconds at the longest point and 3 minutes 12 seconds at the shortest. Really poor considering that ride is less than 2 1/2 minutes and the line was insane for an uncrowded park.

    Fury sometimes has five to six people not including the operator on the control box most of the time they run 3 trains definitely a model efficiency if I know one thing Cedar Fair parks have the best dispatch rates over six flags any day cuz they got more people working the rides so they can keep the Lines Moving great job on this video
