For the most park I love Schlitterbahn. I have travelled from Dallas to New Branfels and made a weekend of it a little over a handful of times in the last 10 years. However this year was disappointing. My 23 year old nephew and I attempted to ride The Dragon's layer on day 1. Combined we weiged just slightly under the weight limit without water weight and camera/cell phone pouches. We waited in line for 2 hours at the bottom of the slide to get a tube then were denied at the top because now they had a weight scale. The 2 gentlemen in front of us were also told the same. After speaking to 2 people at customer service the only thing they could offer was getting us to the top of the wolf pack. We went straight to the wolf pack only to be told the conveyor belt was down and would be another 15 minutes after waiting 2 hours for the Dragon's layer. I understand why there are weight limits and there are signs that say what the rules and what the limits are but i would have appreciated being told that we would be weighed so we could have just gotten 2 tubes or moved on to something else. We also saw several people be denied access to the master blaster for the same reason which also has a wait in line for multiple hours. My only suggestion to Schlitterbahn is to inform your guests that they will be weighed at the top before they get in line and wait for several hours and waste vacation time.
