Nice weekend.

This is a coaster that focuses so heavily on negative G’s, it’s crazy. First hill hits negative Gs at the top, and again coming out of the loop, and then something I’ve never experienced before….a negative G corkscrew. That was a strange experience…but getting off after the first ride we learned an important lesson….when a coaster advertises one of the fastest accelerations at the beginning…don’t put your hands up before it starts moving…some girl got hurt when the acceleration yanked her arms behind her.

But after all these crazy coasters we rode the scariest rind in the park…the Ferris Wheel!!! Yeah laugh it up…but when you cram 6 full grown adults into one car, and you ask the operator if 6 people of our size can ride in one car and he responds…”meh, we’ll give it a shot…after all, what could happen….."yeah that makes you wonder. As the ride came to it’s blazing fast, full speed (about 3rpm) someone, clutching to the center pole of the pod, let out a squeaky “we’re all gonna die!!”…and meant it….but in that person’s defense, the ride was making a lot of odd noises that we didn’t hear before we got on…and after the coasters, it is a bit un nerving to be on a ride with no belts, straps, or lap bars.

After all just a few months ago some crazy person got in a fight with his girlfriend and managed to climb out on the roof of one of the Ferris Wheel pods, threatening to jump…he didn’t, but still...

 

One of our other favorite coasters…
