June 27, 201016 yr Has anyone else noticed that DB's line just isn't as long as last year (on normal days). Or is it just me? Because ever time I look at the webcam its either a walk on or just wrapped around the queues....
June 27, 201016 yr It's year 2...that's pretty normal. Wonder what it will be like 10 years from now?
June 27, 201016 yr It will be just like Beast is now.... no more than 10 minutes wait unless its a School outing, special event day, or Haunt night.
June 27, 201016 yr Author I just don't think amusement parks are getting crowds like they used too...People just cant afford it...
June 27, 201016 yr Has anyone else noticed that DB's line just isn't as long as last year (on normal days). Or is it just me? Because ever time I look at the webcam its either a walk on or just wrapped around the queues.... I have noticed that becasue almost everyday last year the queue was filled but I sure don't mind it.
June 27, 201016 yr Well, Ive been told (not experienced it YET) that the experience of riding in the Night Row cant be compared... so that could be why.
June 27, 201016 yr Thats a good thing not a bad thing! If we're going to rate this as a measurement of popularity then I guess Invertigo, Firehawk, and Flight of Fear are the most popular coasters in the park! More realistically though, Diamondback is a people mover, the other 3 aren't.
June 27, 201016 yr Well, Ive been told (not experienced it YET) that the experience of riding in the Night Row cant be compared... so that could be why. Well, Nitro's lines may changE next year... Terp, who thinks you should know many think Diamondback is superior to Nitro, others vice versa...and Terp...he doesn't answer that conundrum...for anybody!
June 27, 201016 yr Of course, yesterday was a Saturday, with beautiful (though hot) weather. How long did you wait?
June 27, 201016 yr While I definitely agree that, fundamentally, B&M hypers cant really be compared due to the different aspects each delivers... after comparing the two visually, I feel that the feel of the twisting second and 5th drop I will get while riding in the Night Row will fulfill my desires better than DB does. By the end of last season, I would get on DB and the FIRST time I rode it each day still gave me that "wow" feeling, and subsequent rides did not do that at all.

Terp, who thinks you should know many think Diamondback is superior to Nitro, others vice versa...and Terp...he doesn't answer that conundrum...for anybody! Currently I have DB as my 4th fav just ahead of Nitro-but both are very close in my opinion. As to lines, yesterday the queues for DB were full in the morning, pretty much empty in the afternoon and filled again in the evening. It was a very hot day and the water rides and the water park tend to be crowded on those days.
June 27, 201016 yr Author About 35- 40 minutes See, anymore that is the max you will wait for it anymore. And (this is what I do), if the queue is filled I go in the SRL. It is a gamble I know but I riode it twice in the SRL in the same amount of time when my friend rode it once. Just saying.
June 29, 201016 yr Has anyone else noticed that DB's line just isn't as long as last year (on normal days). Or is it just me? Because ever time I look at the webcam its either a walk on or just wrapped around the queues.... i have notice that cause usually on some normal day around 3:00 both of all of the line flows r open with people in it but now only 1 flow is open.
June 29, 201016 yr I'm riding Nitro in a couple of weeks. Cant wait to see how it compares to DB. I prefer a huge line that moves quickly rather than a small line that moves slowly. I go crazy if I just stand in the line waiting.
June 29, 201016 yr That's funny...Nitro still gets long lines most days... Not today! --Beatle, who adored his first Nitro experience, but found the adventure to be less than great...
June 29, 201016 yr At least you didn't have to wait on a turnpike for hours due to a huge sinkhole, I trust!
June 30, 201016 yr The weather in the Cincinnati area has been awesome lately. The temps. have been reasonable along with the humidity. Also the skies have been clear. I know a lot of my friend have gone to the park this week so I have a feeling that is a trend everywhere in the area.
