Any word on the Hulk?

[Bluer101]

Yep, it's soft opening now.

Need help understanding soft opening..: we are here one more day.. You think they will continue opening tomorrow??

 

[macraven]

soft openings should be in effect all week

They will work out any bugs in the trial time period

Could be the ride will be up and working but stopped whenever necessary to work out any issues

I rode it tonight after work, entrance is nice, the indoor portion of the queue has air condition, but is still open to the outside, so there was only a few spots you could really feel it. The new look inside is pretty neat. The ride itself, back to awesome, the soundtrack really makes it and the new effects inside the launch tunnel. I was able to ride it just when it turned dark, so got to see the lights from the second row. Back to being my favorite coaster in Florida.

The soft will probably happen tomorrow, but not necessarily when the park opens, perhaps later in the afternoon. If you ask when it isn't open they won't say it will open, they just open it.

Its all a matter of being at the right place at the right time and how much time you want to invest camping out. Social media will usually blow up when it soft opens which makes it a little easier to not miss out. I think there is a very good chance there will be a soft opening tomorrow too. Good Luck!

8/2 8:34sm - Hulk is open and we just rode! Smoothe and awesome!

 

[wookiebeck]

YES! This news made my day. Leaving in a few weeks. Was hoping the 'late summer' meant we would make it in time. BooYah!

I rode Hulk today!!! It was about 2:30pm. Just dumb luck we walked by and they had it in technical opening. It shut down again just after we got off. As we were walking away from the locker area they were turning people away.
It was AWESOME!!! My boys and I loved it. The new effects are cool, the ride itself is fabulous. It's really smooth. My boys thought it was better than the old one, I think they are right.
Now hopefully we'll get on Kong tomorrow.

Just got word that the official grand opening for the overhauled Hulk coaster is this Thursday.

The express line sign was uncovered today too, but they weren't using it for softs. Express will likely start after Grand Opening (i.e Thursday or Friday)

 

[pcstang]

I'll be there Thursday so that works out great!

 

[macraven]

Have fun with mr hulk

Are the restraints the same as before the refurb? Anyone ride in a modified seat and can say if the seats are little more roomy for us Poohs?

Here's a great video of inside of the queue at The Incredible Hulk Coaster!

Enjoy!

We missed it by a week, go figure. We actually had a TM in dress clothes (manger?) escort us to the fotl at Spider-Man and Kong and he kept saying "I wish you could ride Hulk. It's amazing." Me too, buddy, me too.

The Incredible Hulk coaster is officially back open

Express for it is also open today, the change from the old express is that you merge into the line right before you can pick to wait for the front or not, vs the old way where you usually were brought in via the back entrance, and couldn't pick the front row. Single rider now uses the old back entrance.

The lockers are by ticket scan rather than finger scan. Make sure to keep your ticket.

We waited less than 5 minutes with express.

Well actually the old way has not been active for about 2 years for express. But I do see that express is right at the split instead of the new old way down past the first switchback.

There are also a couple of different sized lockers. We got a small locker and thankfully fit everything in, but it was tight. We didn't see the larger lockers until we got off the ride.

So, They are running Express for Hulk?
