Stealth/SOB incidents

Well I wouldn't have a problem with the inlines on Batwing if they were taken from another position...let's say inverted for example.

It's not something in the track,but rather the position of the body relative to the track that makes going through the inlines rough because of excessive G loads,now if you took the same layout but used inverted trains as opposed to laydown/flying trains then you wouldn't have that problem.

G-loads causing roughness? Rider position causing more force? Doubtful on the first, absolutely not on the second.

I'd be willing to bet the twists on the SLC are generally much more rough than on the flyer.

I have to say that i have ridden batwing at SFA and found it to ba a somewhat underwhalming experience. I don't ride it anymore because in the time I would wait for Batwing I could ride S:ROS 4-6 times, and not have sore shoulders the next day. Yes I find the restraints uncomfortable, but in a strange, WTF did i do to my shoulders? feeling the next day. I'm a little overweight, but I donb't think that that is the entirety of the problem.

G's on the inlines? What Gs? Those things are taken so slow there's barely any force at all. At least in the corkscrews on Stealth you get to go up and down so the slowing makes some sense, but the X-Flight/Batwing rolls are just taken at low speed. If anything, the only forces are when you're pointed down and your entire body weight is on the restraints (which feels no different than lying on your belly on the floor). And I also feel that the inlines on the SLCs are a lot "bangier" side to side (thank you SFWoA for cushioned OTSRs on Serial Thriller).

Honestly, prabe, I think that is the problem. Of the few people I've actally met or seen pictures of who complain of roughness or uncomfortable restraints on dutchmen, its those of (strains to keep it PC ... ) exceptional size.
