Intamin standup/Arrow Suspended

Talk about anything that has to do with the amusement park industry here.

I'm trying to look into why people think SFAW is bad. I see two Vekoma coasters which I can go against, Tidal Wave (no comment or Chitown will put me into the ground), a Swrtkopf, Togo in which I heard complaints about at SFGAdv, and two rollercoasters I'm unsure how people like them.

They are the Intamin standup, and the Arrow suspended coaster. So, if you been on either, please tell me how they are.

Yes, rollercoasters aren't everything in a park, but they make a difference. And yes, I've heard this park has being called "dirty."

SFAW rocks! What are you talking about?

As for the intamin stand-up, it's really a B&M stand-up because Back in the 80's Bolliger and Mabillard were contractors for intamin. It has one loop and is a fair ride. As for the Aroow suspended, I think it's ok. I like suspended coasters as a nice family rollercoaster. Only problem is it's severley out of date.

Typhoon at SV isnt Togo, it is however junk :)

Standup at SFAW isnt bad, though most Arrow Suspendeds are ok, they usually have fairly tame layouts, though Big Bad Wolf (schwarzkopf layout) and Top Gun and it's Clone Vortex are all decent layouts.

However i hate SFAW with a passion and I never need to return there til they get another coaster credit I dont already have, and even there, it's an in and out deal :)

^I think he meant Ultra Twister as the Togo coaster. SFAW has that cool looking S&S flat ride. I was supposed to go to SFAW but the trip fell through =(
