SPOILER ALERT: 2nd visit to SeaWorld San Diego and didn't rope drop because my dad has been busy in the morning to come early. When I arrive to Arctic Rescue, the queue surprisingly isn't too long for a mid day during a Thanksgiving Break Wednesday and the Single Rider line almost gets empty. As a result in one of my attempts to get the front row in a regular line, one of the cast members there lets us choose our own rows for some reason so I successfully got it! Not only that, also I was in a mood of beginning the Every Angle POV of Arctic Rescue! So from that visit as I also wanna ride casually, I did the entirely forwards front row POV and a backwards POV although that one has something blocking its way. Next visit, I'll do more POV angles like Left, Right, Top, and Bottom especially when I'm about to receive a relatively NEW GoPro Camera to upgrade back either a Hero 10 or an 11 to try out new features, while also bringing back the Horizon-Lock POVs (I'm starting to realize the difference between Lock and Leveling as I'm comparing models) and probably re-record these two POVs I snagged. Not only I film extra POVs, also I film what's new in the queue plaza for extra queue footages if I ever confirm the type of POV I planned. As well as the 2 Manta POVs in the same park and POV setup and of course the two new Television Preshow Safety videos of this and Electric Eel with real footages and new automated spiels, probably also include this segment just like the Emperor every angle pov.
This coaster simulates Snow Mobiles in the North Pole with various sceneries in terms of the looks of the coaster train vehicles of each seat, it manages to pay homage to the Wild Arctic Simulator with the Helicopter used to be in the exit ramp of the former attraction and retain the area/building's specific theme. Not to mention that the station looks like a warehouse because it was a showbuilding of the flight simulators, especially the loading doors in the shortcut exit as another remaining thing skipping the exhibit still name Wild Arctic. To make up this station, paintings on the walls with the arrows next to the first launch, the Ready set Rescue on the right side of the loading platform of boarding guests, and Most Importantly the Ceiling light effect resembling the Northern lights in the cold skys to enhance the North Pole theme!
As for my thoughts of the ride itself, the majority of the Layout is full of Fast paced turns which is more than Manta has that its surprisingly forceful for a Family coaster meant to be tame! The 3 launches feel like the Snowmobile revs as the vehicle accelerates to them, and the most banked turns called the small Stengel Dive and compact low to the ground cutback packs a whip to my body! Along side mostly forceful elements, the most graceful parts of this attraction are the hills after the launches along side the shallow hill that don't give airtime. To make the experience more memorable than just the ride itself, sceneries including the signs, the nation flags, solar panels, the 2nd launch round metallic can tunnel, and of course the Recycled Helicopter I mentioned earlier, I barely even focused on them for some reason in person. Overall, a Great Family Ride that's surprisingly relentless, slightly immersive, and I like it better than Manta at the same park for a Controversial opinion since some thrillseekers takes Manta over this one so I don't care if its tame. Emperor is still my favorite ride Nethertheless.
Anyways, I hope y'all be prepare to see the enhancements of the edited version combining clips altogether while I time one of the dispatches for a record from the first time POV.
