food but here at the bar and then first off to drink I got some POG juice passion orange
guava juice again the nectar of the Gods oh man that hits the spot it's a must so I got Walt's
prime rib hash seared prime rib fried potatoes caramelized onions with peppers topped with a
fried egg did get it without the red peppers not the biggest fan of red peppers last time I had
this this is just such like a meaty breakfast right if you have a big Park Magic Kingdom date
you want to come here eat this before you were ready to rock and roll that's good the waltz
morning hash I love it the tender juicy steak in there right some crispy potatoes the aioli
is like oh a masterpiece in there I'm sweet and sour just blends perfectly in there so 10 out of
10 on the uh the hash it's a must then I got the steakhouse 71 seasonal pancakes they're gonna be
a lemon blueberry pancake blueberry pancakes are my favorite type of pancake it's like a little
lemon bar on top nice sugar like lemon icing you get that sharp tart like blueberry jam on top and
a nice fluffy pancake perfect breakfast exactly what I wanted the pancakes are pretty much like
you know the Starbucks lemon pound cake it's like a blueberry lemon pound cake ten out of 10
on those it's a must so good this is why I want to come here for my breakfast for my birthday right
because it's just so good now I love this Lobby um this is like everything you know Disney fan would
want out of a modern Reverb of the Contemporary where it still feels modern but it still
feels like you're stuck in time with like the Contemporary Vibe right and it's just the lobby
feels right looks right and you have the Mary Blair like artwork and designs in it and I love
this Lobby so much imagineering did an amazing job The Rustic contemporary just kind of sucks
you get The Incredibles rooms you have like the 90s Eisner era Chef Mickey stuff this is just so
good I love this so much and then you go upstairs it feels like a totally different Resort it's an
eyesore up there all this contemporary artwork the tables the chairs it just feels right right it
doesn't feel like the boardwalk Carousel coffee see the monorail the Contemporary back there
oh
foreign
had a great breakfast we are recharged and ready for the day it's time to go to the Sea World we're
gonna go ride Sea World's brand new coaster we've made it to Sea World the new coaster
is right there it's big the last time I was here was for hollow screams and I don't remember seeing
the coaster they built that pretty quick here we go pipeline satellite media today we're having a
dance for everyone right now Busch Gardens in SeaWorld they've been on a roll right now with
all their new attractions their coasters and the giant swings and everything the past half decade
they've been knocking out of the park right so they really haven't had a Miss yet this one I'm
honestly very interested to ride it's a standing coaster I've only ridden one standing coaster
before that was at like Six Flags it's called like the apocalypse so it's like way way back
in the day but I just remember it rattling and really hurting my neck will it feel like Tron
you know down there the coaster looks like a lot of fun we're watching it go around all right so
they have a testy right outside yeah jump onto it so how do you get onto it does it push down to you
yeah it doesn't go does it go down yeah there we go down
okay
that is a strange feel yeah so it will we feel like the kid that jumpy jump that's how you feel
the test is very stiff so you didn't fit but you were close so let's see how close you were close
so one thing I also want to say is that this test seat over here is very stiff so if you're
having a hard time pushing it down don't worry in the station those seats are a lot more loose but
it's just really awkward especially for a big guy gentlemen you have to adjust your uh cargo your
cargo so what you're looking for is this has to be flush with this so this has to be flush with
that no this end right here oh this end yeah this end has to be flush with that it's very
difficult to show in the test seat because in the station I could wiggle it in yeah and get
really close but they weren't able to squeeze me in that final inch so before you get on the ride
they do have a locker system you don't go through any metal detectors or anything like that so you
probably could still have stuff in your pockets but they have lockers for the bigger backpack
but you do have to pay for them that's how it is at Busch Gardens and SeaWorld you have to pay for
your lockers now when you're going through here they have like water that goes up so it feels
like you're surfing on the waves man we got some real sand Little Beach Vibes over here all right
so when you get off the ride eventually they're gonna have like you know your ride photos you'll
be able to purchase them exit off into a little gift shop they have a bunch of little Sea World
plushies all right for 33 dollars they have a baseball cap it sets a pass member all right 33
short sleeve shirt pipeline the surf coaster it's Sea World we got some toothpick holders
here for 15 40 for this it's got that design that's on the surfboard which is pretty cool
they have a collectible pipeline little coin they can get open 2023 so they got the photo
in the back collectible coin 120 limited edition the 2023 this is number 11. all
right forty three dollars they have this little long sleeve little swim shirt pipeline the surf
coaster at SeaWorld and then on the sleeve we have a bunch of different fish right there 33
they have this short sleeve shirt for 28 they have this I believe this is a child size shirt
33 they have a trucker cap the Sea World doll set and then this is just a lot of the other
not pipeline merch but it's got that fun tie-dye design 65 tie-dye kind of a hoodie 33 Sea World
rescue shirt loving the colors for these haps Sea World rescue you're looking at thirty dollars for
that hat 45 for this bottle ten dollars they have this really fun pen it's a surfboard pen
so you push down this and it comes out and it goes back 5.99 they have a little sticker for your car
9.99 they have a little magnet for your fridge this is the proper uh dance moves for this ride
back oh I haven't seen that one
That's a classic can't go wrong with that I like the little weight um
all right so Clint congratulations thank you so what was your role then on this project so my
role I came to this project just after finishing building another Park and I came right at the
beginning of construction so I took it from there all the way into what you see today basically it
was nothing but a field of dirt great experience to build this from the ground up uh working with
a great team here we are super thrilled we were more than elated with how overwhelmingly positive
the reactions are and I love it myself I mean it's a great ride so then what are the specs for this
attraction the specs for this attraction so you launched right out of the station at 60 miles an
hour you go up 110 feet to our Hammerhead wave carve back and forth a little bit right down
into our water feature area over here and then we have the uh the wave curl inversion so it's
a heart line curl on a standing after that you carve back and forth with a lot of surf
motions all the way to the end we have five Air Time moments okay about a 3 000 feet of
track and those five years they sneak up on you you know you get the one little taste right off
the bat no spoilers they're spread throughout and you never quite I've written it many times
I never quite know where they're coming in It's So Different for everybody because you can move
your feet as you know you know and no two people are built the same way and no matter if you rode
the same seat twice you're never getting the same experience did you have any team outings to like
go surfing right to do like product knowledge no I actually need to I need to give some feedback in
the suggestion box for that but no and I cannot surf but that's a that's a cool aspect to bring
that up because a lot of us always dream of like man if you're awesome to Surf right yeah I grew up
in Arkansas nobody serves in Arkansas right be able to surf on a roller coaster I mean that's
pretty awesome what uh time frame were you guys we draw inspiration from a lot of different sources
and time periods now the marketing wise we have done a lot of the you know Frankie and that the
old you know 60s you know Beach bike and bingo sort of time frame Timeless representation of the
beach and so our soundtrack what you hear today is some bgm we developed for this ride but we
are still playing with the soundtrack because we don't want to live at a particular period and the
theming that we draw from I would say it's kind of heavily favored from the beaches around the world
but very Southern California the next coaster that might be rumored to be coming but they
can't talk about what might be coming but this uh whole catalog you guys have had the past decade
right this is almost like a Renaissance of you guys with attractions with coasters do you think
it'll be drastically different or do you want something like a hybrid of all the coasters that
you've made so we may be developing an attraction for 2024 right now yeah and I cannot discuss what
kind of Attraction it is but I would tell you it is yet again going to be a great addition to our
collection of uh experiences that we have out here what we are developing is unique to that
that that land you know Antarctica that realm that we have there it's going to be I think a
great addition to the park in an area that needed a little more uh activation a lot to look forward
to there and as as you've noticed just throughout the park with everything we have here restaurants
you know you name it everything around the park there's a ton of development going on
so we are developing and expanding all over the place and we're super excited to bring all that
to our guests I like the science nice and bright and vibrant pipeline the surf coaster so they're
going to have a Quick Queue they're going to have the general cue and then there's going
to be a height limit height limit is going to be 78 inches you have to be above 54 inches I'm like
6-1 so we're we're getting pretty close there so I think if you're like six five maybe six four and
a half you might have to worry you got some nice giant umbrellas here help you out with the shade
yeah during hot summer days people just gonna be like staying here then running to the next
one I got some nice big fans here in the loading station all the numbers are nice and big so it has
like that 70s Floral Design so there's gonna be 12 rows for the coaster it's got a launch
it I really do it with you from this view it almost looks like you're going into surf a wave
he's trying to get underneath the umbrellas right there I think he's a little too tall to
ride though just a little bit so let's just see how they lock them in right they push it
down and then the Ambassador has like this wristband that locks it in he just scans it
uh we are next up I'm excited I'm excited everybody's been smiling
and clapping getting off so that's a good sign we're walking some real
hopping on right now let's see how do you do it you gotta push down
just like that it kind of feels like you're just
like riding the bike yeah just like a little bit of pressure I agree
foreign
little button right there we are heading out now I got so much to talk about when we uh go home we're
not calling the office anymore we're calling it the family room we're gonna go back to the family
room okay now guys we are back at home let's talk about SeaWorld's brand new coaster the pipeline
first off it looks like a giant surfboard what I saw it I was like this kind of looks like you
remember Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory where they like made the world's largest skateboard do you
see all these people on this giant skateboard that's what it kind of like reminded me of so
the new little land is kind of where the old holiday town was for Christmas so it's amazing
that like SeaWorld keeps finding places to put rides and coasters then you get to like
the test seat the test seat isn't really a test seat because it's not like how the ride seat is
Allison really couldn't even get in it so I think if you're like a smaller person you're gonna have
trouble like getting into the test seat to see if it fits or not because it just wouldn't push
down if you're not like strong enough so the test seat needs some work I think but again they still
have like almost 20 days of like previews until this officially opens I believe it's May 26th
is when it officially opens right now they're kind of doing password or previews now when you
guys are watching this so Tessie kind of needed a little bit of work do you there's there is shade
but I think on a hot summer day it's gonna get toasty there's not too much foliage around that
whole little new area with the coaster people are gonna be kind of running places of shade to places
of shade because it's just a lot of concrete so I can see it getting quite toasty during the summer
time so then you get to the Loading platform I like that they have like a little video display
kind of telling you how to get on the ride so you're not um so you're not trying to figure out
why you're getting onto the coaster they only had one train running for us they said when it opens
to the public right there'll be two trains so one will be going through the attraction the other one
will be loading so efficiency will be picked up a little bit more it could be a learning process
I think for a lot of new guests kind of getting in there and you're standing and you're putting
this down and so I can see efficiency during the first couple of months kind of uh being
long wait so prepare for that if you are going to go ride this coaster kind of on its opening month
when you get on the coaster right I was extremely worried that it was gonna you know hurt down there
right we all know how it felt about Tron Tron really put me in a lot of pain so when you're
in there you're like kind of straddling it almost kind of feels like a bike seat you get a slight
bit of pressure down there but nothing really painful so then the coaster starts great launch
right you go off into a launch and you feel like you're surfing it's hard to describe this
attraction because I've never felt it before like on a coaster uh you get hang time so you're like
standing there right next thing you know you're like almost like floating in the air and you're
like oh my God is the coaster falling apart what's going on it was a truly like terrifying awesome
moment then this happens multiple times throughout the coaster so you don't slam down right you're
not gonna get hurt down there it's kind of like a there's like shock absorbers right so there is no
pain maybe like one little spot or two little spots on the coaster where I felt a little bit
of discomfort but I felt zero pain I know a lot of people were very worried about this right how
is this gonna feel I didn't have any pain I felt a little bit of discomfort it just kind of feels
like you're riding a bike if you've ever been on like a mountain bike right you know when you
to go off a little jump or a bump and you have a little bit of a shock absorber right sometimes
it's a little bit discomfort but no pain that's kind of like how the traction feels the attraction
was wonderful there's some great launches you're going upside down you're kind of like twisting
and turning I really went in with like kind of low expectations right I was like okay what is
this going to be something very unique and I really enjoy that Sea World isn't doing like
copy and paste of their coasters and attractions they're trying to be very unique they don't have
the budget of like Disney or Universal right to make this highly themed diversive thing but I do
think they make the most out of what they have to make something different and I think this
coaster is very different and I think it's a great addition to the park and to the you know the all
the coasters here in Florida now is it the best coaster at SeaWorld no I think Mako still is a 10
out of 10 Masterpiece you feel like you're flying through the air Friday Mako but I think this is up
there now if you're a theme park you know coaster Enthusiast should you fly here immediately to go
ride this attraction maybe I don't think it's life-changing but I think it's a lot of fun
I think you should experience it and it's just a great addition to the park you know what's coming
in 2024 I'm really excited because like again they have not missed a beat APUSH Gardens or Sea World
with their new attractions so I'm pleasantly surprised good job zero so guys if you enjoyed
