Has anyone here been on this speed demon? This ride drives me nuts. It seems so amazing and far better than hypersonicXLC.

I just want to set things "straight" from what Ive heard and reality and Id like to know how it really is, what it fels like. So here we go....

Did you enjoy the speed, I mean its propulsion is so quick(nearly 107mph in 1.8 sec.) How powerful is it?

Is the course over all good? what else if not, could it use?

The airtime. Does it truly hurt because its so powerful, if so how does it?

How does the speed maintain? Is the whole ride well done?

What Im trying to say is TELL ME EVERYTHING about this crazy coaster pleaseplease pleae...hehe :lol: ....

Thank u 4 yet again replying to my pointless entries, I just like to hear about coasters that are impossible for me to experience. Thanx. :wink:

^ Since this ride is in Japan, i seriously doubt that anyone on this board has ridden it, My guess would be to try Coasterfanatics.com, Coasterbuzz or Themeparkreview.

That might be your best bet.

Thats what I did. I went right to themeparkreview and coasterfanatics because IO wasnt getting any resonpse, but thats fine. Themepark review n bob are giving me all this info on it. They say its a bit painful and what would sound unsafe but then again I dont think Itd be around if it were.

Theyve given me some cool new pics however as well :D so thats a goody. But yeah thank you though.....

Well from my experience on it, it is by far the best launch on any launch coasters I have been on. Getting launched out of the tunnel adds to the effect of the speed. It is kinda neat to drop alittle before the turn to the right but your speed starts to slow down before the hill.

The best way to describe the hill is to look at the tip of a pencil but a little rounder. The Top Hat sucks as you hit three transitions that are not very smooth and killed my back. After the tophat the ride is very slow and only a couple turns and very boring.

If it wasn't for the speed of the launch this ride would just plain suck.
