If you've been on Rita and Corkscrew, you should definitely be able to handle Nemesis.

Not sure. Think you may get in an hour early?! You should get given shortcut passes and stuff anyway.

Nah, we just ask him if he brings a camera WITH GOOD SOUND... Then we'll ask him to put the POV on the forum so we could watch it over and over again... [}:)][}:)][}:)] Now I'm getting too evil...

ok, what is this thread about? did you think that we actually advise you to not ride nemesis?

What was the conversion like in your mind?

"should I ride nemesis?"
"actually no, I would advise against it, I don't think much of coasters"

LOL

I've ridden a few B:TR clones (including the one at SFMM), and found them all to be very smooth. Although I haven't ridden it, I would assume Nemesis is much more similar to the B:TR clones than Silver Bullet.

You're right, they are all smooth, just very forceful.

today is his day [lol]

anyway, nemesis is fun... Tiny first drop, flying down the blood creek. Into a forcefull corkscrew, then a high g helix which builds up more g's and speed. Zero g roll over the station, tiny turnaround, probably going top speed down there when diving into the looping. Another turnaround, underground again, corkscrew that is laying halfly underground. And then a tiny turn onto the brakes.

Loads of fun, was defenatly a great choice for my 100th coaster [pshades]
