Kewl New S & S Rides - CoasterBuzz

You needed calculations to figure that out? Just kidding, although after looking at those pictures, the 2nd thought that came to mind was "How will those G's be?" The first thought of course was "Holy crap that's awesome!"

-----------------
87 different coasters for this year and counting... 149 total!

Moosh,

I've got my money too on Gravity Group! I know I shouldn't have but the only thing I was basing my statement that S&S could build some great woodies, came from the fact of the ingenious thought behind their current rides! We'll hafta wait and see....

I doubt we would see any coaster to flip patrons upside down at Holiday World any time soon, much less one that holds them upside down for an extended period of time.

Family park, remember kids? Family rides come with that.

At least its more likely than the dueling B&M inverteds that someone suggested, lol.

If the shoe fits, find another one.

Oh, and a question about the Screaming Rat with a Tail Ride, it seems as though on the cilffs you would first be thrown out really hard against the OSTRs, and then all of the pressure would be placed right down onto your shoulders. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to ride it, but is it really going to be all that comfortable? How enjoyable is that sensation going to be in the long run?

I saw a little boy in one of the pictures. Can the GP go to the plant?

Yes, S&S is offering rides to anyone that wants to come out there for a small price. Each ride is priced differently. Refer to their website for details.

I can't get onto the S&S site. They aren't offering public rides on the Screaming squirrel test piece, are they? (I can't get the website to load) I would think it would be a major pain because lifting the car with a crane for every ride.

If that are offering public rides on the squirrel, what does it cost, and how long? Thanks!

No peabody, Only Sky Sling/ Swatter were open to the public.

S+S: Arrow's protege? I hope so!

This stuff is quite innovative. Finally, my father can't say that wild mice are a waste of time to ride, this Squirrel's got a future.

I have to put my money on Gravity Group. Hopefully, however, S+S can give some good competition, making the industry better for all.

How many rides must a man go on, before you may call him a fan?

Thanks, Swimmerkev. It's kind of what I thought.
