Yeah, you have already shown me this dj, it looks crazy, which is good, lol, I would like to go and ride it, but with my vertigo it would probably be a bad idea, hehe. Hmmmm do you think that is strange that i love coasters and have vertigo at the same time, i think its wierd, but anyways, its 1:35 in the morning and i have had a long and tiring day and i want to go to bed, i wish u good night, lol. [:O]< i decided to use that smiley because its the closest one to a yawn, lol.

Ahh...the good old Thrill shot...one of the BEST thrillrides I've ridden. This was simply amazing cuz your body feels so free as you are flung up in the air, tilted downward in a sky diver position, and take a 300 ft freefall back to earth. I was at SFMM and my sister dared me to ride it. I had no problem and was very eager to ride it. If you haven't rode it before, you're missing out!!!

I went on one of those at SFGAdv. It's called Eruption there. It's pretty good but I really think the launch upward should be a lot faster. Like Slingshot/Springshot/Ejection Seat fast which is around 100mph. Of course the pod on Eruption/Thrillshot is much heavier so thats probably the reason. 75-80 mph would have been nice though. Also on Eruption you couldn't pick what setting you wanted, instead it was set at the highest setting.

Anyone know what levels can you make ?? One i think just vertical, other at the top car look down... but the rest??


I did the one where you launch up upright and freefall on your stomach, and launch up and come down on your stomach. There are 2 other modes I think one tilts you as you launch, sit upright at the top and tilt again as you fall and one launched on your stomach and sit upright as you fall. I totally forgot.
