So apparently SlingShot’s cable broke last Saturday while the coils where tightening them to launch with riders on it. A video went semi viral on Facebook.

I've searched facebook and YouTube and haven't seen anything. Any help with a link?

You can see the cable break around the 19 second mark.

Very interesting. This was earlier than when we saw it "stuck". The concert on Saturday started at 5pm and we had been there some time. This was posted at 4:30ish.

So they fixed it AND something happened later that same day.

If I recall this ain’t the first time the cable has snapped on slingshot before. It’s happened a couple of times before too.

Don't know if anyone noticed. Cedar Fair is testing the season pass rewards program, Pass Perks at Carowinds. CF mentioned in the Q1 conf call a rewards program would be tested at some parks. Besides Carowinds, it 's testing at Dorney, Kings Island, & Kings Dominion.

I signed up for this. Has anyone received a perk email yet?

I won a quick q to redeem at a fast lane attraction, but it expires June 16th so I probably won't use it.

Bummer, glad to hear the emails are going out. I registered my pass online, gone 26 times, but haven't seen a perks email yet. I do get the connections email so I know they have it.

Has anyone else seen the frogs? Today, there were HUNDREDS of tiny frogs all over the place. They were tiny. Probably two of them would fit on a dime. More predominately near the lake in front of the intimidator entrance. You couldn’t even walk through there with out stepping on them. The entire path had them. They all weren’t moving and that’s why I didn’t see them. A few were jumping around. My daughter pointed them out or I wouldn’t have. I noticed most people were oblivious to them. But they were everywhere. No doubt I trampled a few. You wouldn’t have been able to walk from sky tower to harmony hall without stepping on them if you weren’t looking.

Haven't seen the frogs.

Will say the baby geese have grown a lot from March until I saw them last week. They're almost full-grown.

21 times here - no rewards.

Wonder if they don't want to reward those of us who have gone more often.

I told Lassie (real name) who is in charge of marketing about the lack of rewards yesterday. She said if I haven't received anything by the end of next week to call her and she'd contact corporate. Maybe if enough of us regulars talk to her about it, they might start sharing the perks! Ask for her from the main call center number 704.588.2600 she was really friendly.

I've been 4 times, and received nothing.

I'm still curious as to what all the "entitlements" listed on my account profile mean.

Not sure how to take this - did they increase the number being sold, or did a lot of earlier buyers default on their payment plans?
