How do you ride?

I ALWAYS keep my hands up, no matter what.

Hands up on just about every coaster I ride. Except of course the ones with otsr's.

It depends on the ride. Loopers I usually keep my hand down except on drops or a helix. On woodies I usually have them up except on Rolling Thunder (Even though I love that ride, holding on is better than a broken rib...J/k its no that bad). On hypers, the hands go up and stay their. On NITRO it didn't feel right if the hands were down, it takes away from the airtime.

I usually try to put my hands in my lap or on the bar if it is a classic style woodie. I hate OSTRs that prevent me from raising my hands so that I can wave to on ride photo camera as I pass. BKF at SFWoA is one of the rides that I have trouble with on that.

On most coasters I have my hands up. But on rides like Revolution(now the worst coaster in the world) I hold on and hope I don't get a headache afterwards.But I like having my hands up on smooth rides like Riddler and Goliath.

Hands up most of the time, unless I CAN'T get my arms up (a few OTSR rides), or it's an incredibly bad headbanger where I hold on to prevent some of the bouncing (ie Arrow Megaloopers -- I can usually slip my arms up on those if I want to, but...)

I like to put my hands and feet up on Medusa for the first drop...nothing like it in the world. You almost can't even feel the restraints. It's especially great in the front with the wind blowing full blast in the face.
