That's an odd place for it to valley lol. Easy evac at least.
I always thought that was a potential valleying spot.
And CK, the ride couldn't have, they removed the friction brakes and put in magnetic all the way till just before the turn. Right before the turn is a few friction brakes still..
It historically would valley in the turn after the corkscrew, but that was when the block brake was malfunctioning a couple years ago.

The wind must have been as strong as 4 m.p.h. that day. I'm surprised there was even one ride open.
Don't quote me on this but I believe Mantis' wind limit was 45mph, which is waaaaaaay higher than most rides there. The joke was always that the rides people hated the most shut down last. It could run in rain too!
And to be fair Raptor is super valley prone if the wind is right.
Also if you're visiting in the future and you're mad about rain, Raptor and Iron Dragon insta-close because they drip rust/oil on riders in the rain.
