V2 Or Wicked Twister

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

What ride do you think is better? V2 or Wicked Twister? When I watched an on-ride video of wicked twister I thought it was really weak.

Many people like the freefall tower and holding brake on V2, but most from what Ive heard, are more satasfied with Wicked Twister. I think WT would be way better cause everyone gets a twist....thats what I hate about V2, is that (for me) if you dont sit in rows 1-3 then its not as fun :?
V2 should be altered to have two twisted towers still including the brake on the rear one :wink:

I've been on both and I can say Wicked Twister.

Back row and spiraling backwards is so weird. I almost answered my phone on V2 okay. That says something right there.

I dont think you want to talk on your phone during any ride. Especially if you have a motorola razor :D

When I took an onride video of wicked twister I just thought it was really slow and I didnt think you weant that high. I could be wrong since on an onride video of rb the drop wasnt big.

Vertical Velocity, I love the airtime on the back spike. The hold is great. The twist is boring and doesn't really give you a unique sensation.

^ You will probably get your camera taken away and you will get kicked out of the park.

It's a danger to riders or onlookers.

And it's an overal display of stupidity if you don't have park permission.

^Very true, if you were to drop the camera, you could injure someone.

^^^Yeah that is very true, or in V2's case, you could drop it when you are on the back spike and then its falling and before you know it, you are speeding downt the spike towards the camera and then........ouch..lol
