De javu SFGAm

TrBigger: like I said, I've never ridden it, but it seems that in this picture there is a green piece that fits between the harness that might be hitting people in the throat.  can anyone tell me if I'm right or point out the right perpitrator?

what happened to www.rideop.com

Coasterjedi,

    I have never ridden it, but depending on the height restrictions of the ride, it don't appear if it hit anyone in the throat.

Rideop.com is on the Zygit networks, and the owner of Zygit, is an employee of SFGAm, and it is against a policy to have information about SFGAm posted on the internet.  And FoF, look at my previous post, for a picture of the harness with someone sitting in it.

I didn't find this ride rough at all and I road it on the last day of Fright Fest.  No head banging at all I found it very smooth very fast.  One incrediable ride if you ask me.  Alf is cool how tall are you because I didn't find those bars to bother me or come close to my throat at all and im not that tall im only 5' 10".

Those aren't pictures of me, I found them online.  But, I am 6 foot.  I worked Deja Vu though, so I rode it a couple times, never once did i have headbeanging.  I think my count for Deja Vu is about 20.

Those things do not choke you in the throat.  Gimme a break.

The only thing I can complain about are the orange seat belts, which slow down loading time and are a bit tight.

How tall are you coaster jedi two foot ten HAHAHA? that is the most ridiculous thing i have heard. that thing comes up to my second rib

Not to beat a dead horse, but here are my three experiences with Deja Poo:

1. SFGAm - I finally get a chance to go to the park after Deja Poo's opening on probably what is the busiest day I've ever been there. We arrive at about 12:30 (late, I know), and Deja Poo is not running, but the line is extremely long. The ride operates on and off (mostly off) all day, making hideous grinding sounds as it continuously breaks down all day. None of my friends want to wait, and I don't either, as I figure I will get to check it out the next weekend at SFoG. Yeah, right. Strike one.

2. SFoG - My friends in Atlanta and I are pumped to get to the park very early, and take off right to Deja Poo. Surprise, Deja Poo isn't open. I went to SFoG on the coldest day of their operating season, and the ride has fallen victim to the "can't operate below 55 degrees" defect. The ride tests a couple of times in the afternoon, but fails to open. Strike two.

3. SFMM - I had the honor of beating all the odds last weekend, as Deja Poo valleyed in the Cobra Roll during my visit to the park on Sunday. Upon arrival at the park on Monday, I headed over to Deja Poo first. When I got to the ride, the train was still stuck. I was told Deja Poo would not operate today. Figures. Strike three.

Needless to say, I'm not particlulary impressed with Deja Poo. If I ever get to ride one, maybe I'll change my tune and call it by its proper name.

If you're ever going to one of the parks with a Deja Poo in its collection, be sure to e-mail me ahead of time to make sure I won't be there. You may not want to be at the park when I am, as I can assure you Deja Poo will be closed and you won't get to ride it.

well wont your opinion change when you finally get to ride it. i kept going and it was closed. it pissed me off so bad. then i finally went when it was open and it was so good i waited 3 hours to ride it again.

Went to SFoG and got one ride, wasn't really interested in THAT long of a slow-moving line (slowed by the complicated seating arrangement, one-train shuttle, "Lo-Q" folks coming up the narrow exit ramp, etc.) for a second trip.  Especially for a ride that I felt was a *modest* improvement over the other Invertigo's.  The view is better from non-front row seats, giving better foot-choppers.  The vertical parts are really no different from the S:UE/V2s...OK, it was a pretty good ride I guess, but not something that'll make me break into a run....seems we have to come up with a lubricant that'll keep coasters running below these seemingly reasonable temps....

this is personally my favorite steel coaster (untill i go to BGT, then when S:UF comes out). i rode the one at SFOG and i didnt experence any roughness, lack of speed, or anything. but i don't remember the throat bars that everyone is complaining about. here's a pic of the trains (one that they leave in the line for people to look at) that doesn't even have them. http://rcdb.com/installationgallery1040.htm?Picture=3 does anyone else not remember these "throat choakers" at SFOG?

I still like Deja vu' and I really had a blast on it. I didn't have a problem with this green bar that everyone is talking about.
