Went to SFO DL thursday 6-22. A great trip for power rides. Rode Superman 24 times and that was arriving after noon. And riding all the other coasters. Max. wait for Superman was 10-15 minutes when I first arrived. After about 5 rides the wait was 5 minutes to a walk on the rest of the day. I was amazed when the line was 5 minute wait people were walking out of Superman saying they were not waiting that long.
Superman: Good Intamin ride. nice drop (70 degree descent) Just like MF as far as where the airtime is at. Most air in the front. Little air on the second hill in any seat. But every other hill Ok air but not as much as MF. In the back good air on the drop (more air in back than front on drop).
One difference I noticed with the back compared to front. Airtime in the back comes when you are going down any hills. As airtime in the front comes right before and as you are cresting the hills. I prefer the front airtime more. Cars are the same as MF's; however the MF cars are a little more roomier. The same magnetic brakes on Superman as MF. However these brakes don't make a peep. Quiet as can be you just glide to a stop. Yes you glide to a stop on MF however for some reason the MF brakes are louder than these. Not sure why??? But these superman brakes are totally quiet.
Viper- another arrow. Only rode once. same cars as corkscrew at CP.
Predator- smoothest ride very front seat. roughest very back but not as rough as Mean streak. Ok woodie better than any woodies at CP. However for some reason they have trims on the first drop.
Didn't ride mind eraser (vekoma inverted) already been on that at SFO.

Is the lines for coasters always that long? Im planning a trip for this coming wednesday(6/28) and have been trying to figure out what the waits are for them. If you or ANYONE else can help me out that would be GREAT! thanx

Always that LONG. What?? 5-15 minutes is a short line...PERIOD. Goto CP and find out what a long line is.
Craig. MF is a clone in how it is made but nothing else. MF blows Superman away.
