So what is your opinion on the inconsistency of Hurler as of late?

Today I rode Hurler and it was literally teeth-rattling. I didn't enjoy the ride at all.

But several weeks ago, it seemed pretty "smooth".

Thunder Road seems to be very smooth this year, but Hurler on the other hand has not.

I haven't seen the Hurler run smooth and fast in several years. I know that on June 6th(my last visit) it was fast, but very rough!

Last time I rode it, It was rough, but not to the point to where it hurt, it was prety fast too....

I've always found the Hurler to be very tempermental. Some days it'll rattle your teeth. Other days, its a great ride and one that I can't get enough of. For me, its definitely a front seat (at least the first four rows) ride. I don't like riding it in the back at all. The majority of the time that I've rode in the back, its not been fun. I'm one of those who will wait for a seat in the front area.

^^I'm with you on that one. Wouldn't waste my spine on a backseat Hurler ride. Besides, the floating airtime is in the front.

I thought the back was fine the last time I rode. The middle section is where I got the teeth rattling. Totally different ride in the front.

^^ The funny thing is, I was sitting on the 2nd row. lol

I used to love the back seat because it whipped you and gave some good air time, now it's just painful.
