    Definitely gotta try that.

    The “High Roller” coaster is no great shakes. It’s small, slow and well in from the edge so when you look down all you see is track and fencing.

    The “Big Shot” is cool, that one gives you the feeling of dangling your feet into space.

    Haven’t been there since they built the X-Scream.

    I'm with TW. I have no fear when it comes to amusement park coasters, but this thing is more like an 'insanity' thing, than a bravery thing.

    I generally like most all roller coasters. I could even see my self trying out skydiving in the future. But I dont know if I like this ride much... lol... maybe a bit too insane for me.

    Fear of falling and heights...I can't even stand on a chair without a funny feeling!

    No way I could do this ride. The thing that shoots you up and then drops you at Six-Flags still gives me the creeps from riding it... Didn't they have one of these on the Stratosphere in Vegas?

    There's a reason why rides like that are referred to as "spin 'n' pukes" . . . give me a good ol' fashioned coaster anyday.

    That’s the “Big Shot” I mentioned. It’s very cool.

    My kids and I rode that the first year it opened, stood in line nearly 30 minutes. When we got off, both my kids called it a certain word that kids use now to describe something lame that starts with a 'g' and ends with a 'y'. Neither had a desire to ride it again either. The one at King's Island in Ohio is much more extreme. Much more.
