new snake river falls rule

I was at the park 2 days ago and I noticed they are only allowing 3 poeple in each row on snake river falls. It used to be 4 people to a row. I'm not sure, but I think they decided there was too much weight in the boats. Anyone else know for sure the reason for this change?

If they are doing this, that sucks. When ever you go to an amusement park you go in twos or fours. Three just doesn't work.

From the same park that brought us, "only load the left side of the train on Millennium Force."

That is sooo dumb! why the heck would they only let 3 to a row! It seems like sometimes you can possibly even fit 5 people in a row!

When do they say that?

I thought that was weird too. It might be my imagination, but when i rode it the splash seemed smaller.

I am really confused as to why they did this. 4 people fit perfectly fine. Sounds like they may have an underlaying issue and this is their "band-aid" for it. I hope they don't decide to keep it this way for years to come. And I didn't really notice the splash being smaller on Sunday. Looked to be the same. Although with less people and less wait, it could be possible.

And anyone else see all the new metal things on the first drop? *** Edited 6/28/2007 3:09:18 AM UTC by Top Thrill 182***

I was at the Park yesturday and the time I was in the back both Water Rides were closed around 10am - 1:30pm. That got me mad, and when I was on the MF and the Magnum; I could see them both working. My mom wouldn't let me go on either one because of our new car we got 2 days ago.

^towels and plastic work wonders in new cars.

When I was there Tuesday, I saw people with four in a row.

I rode it on Tuesday right when it opened, and they were only letting 3 in a row

Maybe something about letting the ride warm up or something?
