And now, a few tips from your resident Carowinds Employee. STAY HYDRATED!!!! This is a major one, people. You're in the South during the hottest months of the year. Temps are in the 90s or even triple digits. Add to that a high humidity, and heatstroke is a big thing you want to avoid. I recommend the all-day drink bottle because with how much you'll be drinking. Bottles of water are upwards of $4, too, so it pays for itself over time. If you don't like plain water, there's a Coke Freestyle machine across from Hurler, so you can get flavored water. However, if you don't want to pay for water, food and beverage places will be more than happy to supply a cup upon request. (Just don't ask merchandise employees, as the coolers there are just for employees.) Make sure to bring a strap for your glasses or sunglasses. You'll need them to ride rides like Fury 325 or Copperhead, and thus they're very popular and likely to sell out quickly. If you're looking for specifically Carowinds merchandise, then Premiers, Pier 73, and the ride gift shops are your best bet. I would not recommend going to Thrills for Carowinds merchandise, because that mainly focuses on name brands. Make sure to bring a couple $5s if you're planning to ride Fury or CHS, as you'll need to rent a locker to put your stuff in, and unfortunately we removed ATMs. Merchandise associates (like me) can break larger bills, but it will require the managers. Depending on where they are, it could take >5 minutes. Make sure your phone is fully charged and probably bring a spare battery too, because (at least for 2021) the park isn't offering paper maps, and the Carowinds app has a digital map as well as ride times updated throughout the day. Another 2021 only tip, but the Skytower and PVZ are down due to COVID, so the only "cool-down ride" the park offers is Boo Blasters on Boo Hill, our shooting dark ride. Try to get the last ride/2 on Fury, because the ride ops might let you one more time. YMMV on this, however. Brandon is right, the Fury team is amazing. Finally, if you're heading from now until mid-August 2021, most days of the week, stop by Thrills and say hi to Corey. That's me, and I'll try to leave you with a smile. There are your tips from your friendly everyday Carowinds employee*! *Please note that all opinions stated here are my own, and not affiliated with Carowinds/Cedar Fair.

[@judithpolczynski9536]

I love night rides on afterburn, especially since they allow re-rides if there is no one waiting in your row’s queue line. I recommend the next to the last row. It gives a back of the train ride experience, but rarely has people waiting for the next ride like the last row usually does. Last year, I got 11 consecutive rides without ever leaving my seat in the next to the last row!

Hey odd question but how do I get over my rollercoaster fear . I almost have a panic attack at the start

[@zerogcoasters]

@@dustinmyers3686 If you are scared of the forces and feelings, then start smaller and work your way up. That way, you can adjust to the forces. Start with a kiddie coaster or family coaster with a small drop, then move on to a larger ride like a GCI or Other wooden coaster. After that, go up to a ride with an inversion or two, and then a ride with a big drop and some airtime moments like a B&M hyper, and then I think you should be good.

[@broadwayblueshirts6160]

Next time I am there I will try the Blue Ridge Country Kitchen. The one thing I don't like is that at Carowinds they don't let you wait for the seat you want. Ive had the front on Fury a few times by luck but never on Copperhead Strike. I was at Kings Dominion and they have no problem letting you wait for any seat. I wish Carowinds would do the same. It bugs me when parks don't let you wait.

[@OklahomaCoasterFan]

Yes, that is my biggest coaster pet peeve. Row assignments create a negative vibe that legitimately takes away from the enjoyment of the ride.

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Ask nicely - they may let you… I always ask for the backrow on fury and I don’t think I’ve ever been told no. Lol

[@mt_xing]

Depends entirely on how crowded the park is. If you manage to get a weekday where it rained early afternoon and everyone left, they'll let you sit wherever you want. But if you show up on the Fourth of July, you're getting whatever row they stick you in and that's that.

Great video and tips, especially the bathroom tip 😂....i have driven from my house in FL to my parents place in Buffalo maybe 30-40 times over the past 20 years and always go right thru Charlotte on i77. NOT ONCE have I ever stopped at Carowinds. I am terrible, I know, but plan on it next time I travel North. I've got most other parks, but just never stopped for a day. The addition of Fury 325 and copperhead strike has quadrupled my interest in finally stopping now.

Also, when you get the fast lane, do you still have to wait in a short line, or do you get to walk right on?

Depends on the line For fast lane … so you might have a less than 10 minute wait while the main line is a lot longer… or you might have no line at all. All Depends on how busy the park is.

Everything was a walk-on for me with my fast lane plus except for Copperhead Strike and Nighthawk....as Brandon says in the video, both have horrible ride throughput.

[@DinoNardelli]

As a long time Carowinds (1983-on) goer here's my tips : 1. DONT NOT EAT AT CAROWINDS. unless you are rich or are willing to take out a small loan for the family meal. Eat before you get there. 2. Absolute best time to go to avoid crowds for season pass holders? Sunday morning first thing. You're in at 10am, ride all the major rides before the crowds come, you're out of the park by 1pm. 3. During summer, the black top pavement will COOK you. Stay hydrated. I believe Carowinds doesn't charge for water. 4. Scarowinds is in the fall and temperatures are nice. Scarowinds highly recommended but not for little kids. 5. Best option for locals...buy a season pass. It will pay for itself after 2 visits AND you won't have to pay the ridiculous parking fees.

[@aircraftsandtrains2309]

if you ride fury 325 go to row 8 seat 1 my favorite seat afterburn row 8 far right seat

[@NekoOkto]

I rode every seat on Copperhead back to back. That ride honestly isn't as simple as front or back. Row 6, left seat is the best on the whole train imo.

[@topherd1011]

If you’re going to Carowinds … ride them all.. including Vortex. Idk why people bash that ride so much. I really really enjoy it .. but then again I do like rough rides.. 🤷‍♂️ I live an hour away … I should go more often!

[@maris_p.]

Another time that in my opinion is a good time to go to carowinds is about like 6pm because now in the summer it gets really hot so in late afternoon the weather is really nice and there is not much people at the park

Carowinds is my closest park and I would recommend a Season Pass Gold because it's cheaper then a two day and you will want 2 days at this wonderful park. I would also recommend the Fast Track because no one wants to wait to have fun. I would recommend Carowinds over numerous parks. If Cedar Fair would take their heads out of their asses Carowinds would be a year around park already. I enjoy this park more than any of the Orlando Parks.

That was helpful but I did have a few more questions about Carolina Harbor such as when to enter the park and what rides should I do first. And I am still giving Vortex a shot. I am pretty tolerable with coasters and I think I can handle whatever this ride will do.

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Carolina harbor opens at 11 on most days.. I would say do Dorsal Fin But I think those slides are getting removed. So I would do the tube slides on Blackbeard’s revenge first. Lower capacity. Go to the wave pool in the back - doesn’t get as crowded.
