So it has finally frozen over...

Wierd day at the Point yesterday. While walking towards WT I glanced over at Space Spiral and noticed something I thought I'd never, ever see again. They were loading the top level of the cabin. Immediately rushed over for the next ride hoping to ride upstairs, only to find out that there only letting a few riders up each ride. I'll try to have pics up later tonight.

I think I remember seeing riders being let onto the top level of Space Spiral in May or June this year...

My friend works on Space Spiral and she told me they've used it a couple of times on busy days. If they have a line, they open up the top level.

I would expect that, but on what could be the deadest Sunday this year?? They had 5 or 6 crew members on that ride, which quite possibly could have outnumbered the riders when I was on.

Yes, Sunday was truely one of the best days to go. The line for the force was no longer than half an hour the whole day, it is hard to believe they would be loading the top level. I rode Wicked Twister twice yesterday, but I didn't notice any riders on the 2nd level of the cabin. Not that I am doubting you, it just seems weird that they would do this on a day like yesterday.

They were also using both levels one of of the trips I made recently. I don't remember if it was Labor Day weekend or the week before. Maybe next they'll fix the AC! :)

I was there on the 28th and I also noticed that they loaded a few people into the top cabin.

It is interesting what you can notice about CP when you are waiting almost an hour for someone to come out of one of the Haunted Houses

I fool so feelish...

They were loading it on Saturday as well. I was over there eating a cheese on a stick and was going to have a heart attack from that, then I had a massive heart attack when I saw they were loading the top level. It only took me seven seasons but I finally got to ride the top level!

I rode in the top cabin of the space spiral on Labor Day weekend, Sunday. I was just as shocked as the rest of you to see that they were loading us there.
I rode on the top last weekend. Pretty cool. Yes, I enjoy cheap thrills. The extra 8-10 feet more didn't add much to the view, but it was cool...

Get with it or die in the process.....

...it's probably air conditioned up there! ;)

I rode the upper level twice this season. The first time being July 4th. My friend couldn't understand why I had to time our entry in line so we would get the upper level, but I thought it was great because I'd never rode on top before. I think the other time was the Sunday before Labor Day, but I'm not sure.
