I love how dark it is at night; so beautiful

[@mylesmcarthur642]

I found the coaster youtuber I sat next to during my first ride on Icebreaker 😊

[@greghaus]

This modification is fantastic. I'm hoping to be back in May before my platinum pass expires, and I'm sure this will make this surprisingly good coaster even better.

[@someoneout-there2165]

If the influx of migrants haven't overrun the park by that point.

[@JustOutnAbout]

So glad those "comfort collars" are gone. Can't wait to go back and ride now!

[@JakeCoasters]

I can't believe they actually took them away!! So awesome!!

[@slxdaTV]

Crazy, I didn’t even realize they changed it when I was there today but I did notice the seatbelt . You can kinda feel the difference as far as the airtime jumps

[@AriAman2010]

Im so glad that this was adjusted. Now I wonder if they will remove the comfort collars on tigris since its the same company and manufacturer

[@timk987]

probably not, due to the inversions.

[@kittenkitch]

imagine this was added on to the end of full throttle !!! that would be dream ride

[@supremefan]

Can't wait to try without the comfort collars! That was the only part I hated and couldn't enjoy the airtime due to the pain they caused. It's surely moving up my rankings.

[@CoasterDad86]

I hope they follow suit an remove them on Tigris also

[@cdchen83]

You would hope, but I don't think they're going to remove them from anything that has an inversion. It's the illusion of additional safety.

[@barrywatkins7235]

And tempesto

[@cjspyker]

that one goes upside down too much

[@shadycharacter94]

@@cjspyker The same ride at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom runs theirs without the collars. It's safe.

[@Blazenwolf1776]

After last weekend the amount of people who couldn't ride it I'm glad they changed it I saw 6 people at one time not allowed to ride it cause they was to tall.

[@Commanders2022]

I knew the comfort collars were going to come off eventually. The ride has no inversions and they needed that 48 inch height requirement back. I think over the next 5-7 years, sea world orlando should focus on just building family coasters, maybe one indoors.

[@FrappeInsider]

penguin spot's probably going to have a coaster soon. seaworld entertainment is allergic to dark rides they are still missing that stand out amazing coaster ngl

[@dzamadzama_llama4536]

If the front has that much airtime, I couldn’t imagine the BACK!

[@mrcrazykid.]

You get airtime on the entire hill when you make it over😊

[@robertgray1756]

You said exactly what I was thinking ! I.e. probably feels like a different ride ! I can't say it looks like a different ride because i cannot see it !!! Lol. Thanks for showing.

[@ThemeParkHorizons]

Great to see you there last night! :)

[@karinwoods1787]

Great video - thanks!

[@sdaniel9129]

They should have done this from the start! A kids coaster without kids is a weak ride ;-) Now it's a fun ride: What it was meant to be in the first place!

[@Frank-ed3db]

Great videos thank you will they have a passholder preview to pipeline when it opens

[@davedoesthingsdreaded]

Such a short ride. First half kicks butt

[@mmocken]

Neckbreaker no more!

[@sceneske5882]

I still haven’t been able to get on this ride since the first time I was supposed to ride the lightning alarm went of right after we had buckled in

[@stuartbennett1163]

great beard!

[@tyrannoyoshi]

This must mean the roller coaster doesn’t hurt as much!

[@juliewest0827]

I hope so, I rode it once with the supposed "comfort collars" and got so beat up I ended up with dark bruises on both of my arms! It was horrible and I said I would never ride it again. I will give it another try next time I go. I was there this past weekend and noticed they were gone and got in line. Just before I got up close to boarding which takes forever having just one train they shut it down due to some maintenance issue.

[@Usercantwelve]

I won't be insulted at your answers, I was a Coaster freak I feel left out of these new coasters . Bc I have alot off metal joint replacements and I'm older now. No kiddie COASTERS 💥 Cedar point..Carowinds..magic Mountain ( Tatsu 😊).

[@IM_AwesomeYT]

Also when icebreaker was closed I saw something that looked like sparks at the top hat

[@jimmiehx2]

Nice shot of Orion behind the coaster. 👍🏻

[@mrcrazykid.]

Yeah, Orion is my favorite surf coaster

[@diazjr1975]

Glad they did this. Full Throttle at SFMM never had them and that ride more tense. Now they need to remove them from West Coast Racers.

[@homeboy_roy1570]

I wonder how long before they get the second train back. Taking the collars off must be a more involved operation than it seems

[@coasterwolf0108]

Im happy now, i hope they do it to tigris

[@thesaucyslurp]

thats how the ride should have opened

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

Why did they remove the comfort collars?

[@MrKelvin2230]

Are they still only running one cart?

[@braydenmunger8391]

Now for there sky rocket 2s ? If not I’m still glad they removed them on ice breaker I liked this coaster a lot even with the collars they took them off literally one day after I left Orlando 😂

[@theheardtheorem]

Damn….rode it in November and absolutely hated the collars. Really interested to try again without them

[@HARMONTY100]

Are they doing this for Tigris too?!!

[@gregbenn5664]

Did someone shout "pink chicken's" 😂

[@JDVanimations567]

Why didn’t they do this sooner I mean we didn’t need the comfort collars Superman at discovery kingdom Dosent have them so why were they added?

[@troyvsc]

Wish they would remove them for WCR at SFMM. Full Throttle in the same park with extreme hangtime has seatbelts. I know it was for faster loading but take them off already.

[@sam06pr]

Uff one train operation? I hope they get the other train running soon.

[@ericthomason8463]

Hot take: I don’t have a problem with Premier Rides comfort collars. Their trains are a pain to get in and out of, but they don’t bug me when I’m in them.

[@deletedaccountdnd]

That is quite a hot take. Yikes!

[@notlegitkoolaid4911]

Good for you. But for everyone else we’re glad they’re gone. They were so pointless

[@customphpdesign]

big let down for me today. I use to fit on this ride but not anymore. I almost fit but I have a larger waist. I will have to loose about 10 more pounds then should be ok. I also do not fit on pipeline but I do fit on the other 3 just fine.

[@JoshTheBarber]

At the 6:55 mark it looks like Will Smith is riding row 1 😂

[@cgthugahh8730]

I can see that 😂😂

[@bobbyswanson3498]

will never understand the decision to add them in the first place. giving the illusion of safety won’t make people any less scared of the height or intense elements so it just brings the experience down for everyone who isn’t scared

[@Art_V101]

My real problem with IceBreaker is how cramped your legs are in there,and that's not going away without different trains.I'll only ride it again if I bring a family member who's never ridden it.

[@McQ-wk5lu]

All Premier rides coasters are cramped & have always been that way...ie...Mr Freeze, Flight of Fear , all the Skyrocket models, etc..

[@Art_V101]

@@McQ-wk5lu Yeah won’t ride those either,I fit perfectly fine in it but the cramped legs gives me anxiety.

[@sdaniel9129]

I also have long legs, so I know what you're talking about! Maybe RMC can make the trains for Premier Rides, from now on ;-) Comfort collars are never comfortable... Greetings from the Netherlands!

[@jdrammer5664]

One train ops huh.

[@jonnopop]

the caveat here

[@michaelberry3849]

Comfort collars spoilt the ride for me,will be a whole better without them will improve loading time too

[@davedoesthingsdreaded]

One train ops

[@persianking44]

Given that the ride doesn't invert, the comfort collars never made much sense to have on this ride 😂

[@CobbleBompster]

You mean “much sense”?

[@persianking44]

@@CobbleBompster That's what I said

[@timk987]

I don't care how much it feels like a different ride. IT'S NOT A NEW CREDIT! (unless you've never been on it)

[@Yikes_its_Psychs]

What major modifications? Resetting the trains to factory standard is not "major" in my book.

[@reeseylover80]

Think it would have been better to leave the restraint collar and protection. That's just asking for trouble if someone gets hurt

[@skeletor325]

Ugh. NO MORE 5 MINUTE WAIT. NO MORE 10 MINUTE WAIT AND NO MORE WALK ONS FOR ME 😭
