For those of you who have ridden Sky Striker, and you're sitting next to someone or close to someone who is freaking out either a little or a lot, don't you just find it funny? :lol: :P 8)

I was on the ride on Saturday July 5th and there was at least one or two people near my seat who were totally freaking out and saying all kinds of funny things in Spanish (some of which I understood). I just couldn't help laughing my butt off as he was saying these things and putting his hand over his eyes. Seriously I love this ride, it's not a problem to be kicking the sky and seeing only sky and clouds for me, but some other people they go banana's on this ride and it's a good laugh riot because of them. I know the ride is very safe, but seeing them freak out is one of the things I like about the ride.

What about you?
Got any good stories on Sky Striker?

^ The worst part of Sky Striker is those suffocating restraints! And people think my X Flight has tight vests?!! LOL

I saw a guy (a Latino coincidentally) who was wearing a BLANKET while riding Sky Striker! I said "It must be hot with that blanket on?" and he said "It's not blanket. It's a poncho". I was trying super hard not to laugh!


I also wish there was more airtime like a Screaming Swing :(

When I rode it on Saturday, the restraints didn't bother me at all.
X-Flight on the other hand does, if I allow it to.

A poncho!? In 90+ weather!? LOL... :lol:
I don't think a Giga Discovery is designed for airtime. It's designed to terrify you.
