Is X-Flight getting rougher already? Because I rode it Memorial Day Weekend and thought that it was extremely smooth, now on 7/6 I rode it and it seems much rougher. This time I rode X-Flight I rode it in the second seat as oppose to Memorial Weekend when I rode it in the front seat. Does anyone agree or do you think I am crazy?
I think you're crazy. The coaster is less than 2 months old.
Then again, I didn't experience it yet, so I cannot be the judge of it.

Different seats can give different rides, and you may have not noticed that it was rough.

That can be true too...
At Superman: Ride of Steel, certain seats give different rides. Even though it is Intamin: King of Smooth... a different seat near certain wheels can give a ride.
Your experience can be as smooth as silk, or it can feel like your train has square wheels!

X-Flight showing signs of age? Are you on drugs? The grass hasn't even grown around the ride, let alone the track start to get rough. It isn't even broken in!

Actually, while riding it on Tuesday for the first time since mid-May, I felt that it was smoother. There were a few rough spots before it was opened to the public that have been smoothed out.

It doesn't matter what seat your in X-Flight is garbage. Believe you me, I have rode in every single car on the green train and no matter what the ride stinks. Anyone out there listening, don't waste your time standing in line for X-Flight it isn't worth it! Proceed immediately to Superman!
Just Coasting, your allowed your opinion of course, but why on earth would you ride every row if you didn't like X-Flight? Did you think that seat 3 row 4 was going to be any better.? You probably knew after the first ride you didn't like it. Sorry, but that just strikes me as being a little unintelligent. Either that, or you do like it!

I fear that it will age horribly. Hangman (currently Kong), and T2 were 10,000 times smoother when they opened in 95 then they are now. I'd love to see X-Flight/Batwing be the same in 5 years as they are now, but I don't think that will happen, especially when I saw the loose tolerance on the wheels.

Craig the Coaster Freak hit it on the nail - different seats do give different rides. It's the same way on Stealth.

All I've got to say is that our Invertigo, Two Face, rides exactly the same as is did when it opened, and it's still very smooth.

That's true, Intamin fan, but the Invertigos use a different wheel assembly, which probably has a good deal to do with that. (I wish they would use some of those improvements on their other coasters!)

Here's your answer, if your pushed in really snug you'll have a ride smooth as silk, if you can move around a little it'll be more jerky

I don't think your crazy GO FULL FORCE, I think you may have been riding on a bad wheel, which doesnt surprise me. I rode on a bad wheel on sunday, though not an uncomfortiable ride, i could tell it was due in for servicing.
None of the coasters at SFWOA are rough. Wolf Bobs hads a major train trailering problem and Serial Thriller has really bad harnesses.

Dude, Me and a freind rode the big dipper in the last seat. It did not roll down the track it kinda bounced down the track. It was THEE worst ride I have ever been on . I'll never get on that thing again.
