Why would anyone ride a standup for airtime. I enjoy feeling of weighing 1000 lbs, and the feeling of not knowing witch way is up.
My view of the TOGO's is take a pallet, stick on wheels and a mannequin stand and you have a coaster train. My vote goes for Mantis with Chang a close second.

'01 Trips thru the spin cycle-SOB 06
Vortex @ PC and Georgia Scorcher..both fantastic rides..

Mindbender...Can you hear the Riddler chuckling?
#1 - Chang. Big, fast, long, well paced. excellent overall, as you would expect from B&M.
#2 - Iron Wolf. Great, but too short. It was getting painful to the point where I would skip it, but new head padding has improved the ride greatly.
#3 - King Cobra. I don't remember it being painful, but seeing as it was the first stand up coaster I had ridden, I was probably too busy enjoying the ride to notice.
I haven't ridden any other Stand Ups, so no comment on the rest of them.
The RIDDLER---Mantis is just a smaller version...a Riddler-bitter...

Life is like a coaster---
You go up, down, turn-around, and upside-down...and then there's all that pressure on your head, too...

In my mind..... none! They are all calf-killing, headache-causing wastes of money.
Riddler's Revenge dominates the coaster world. :) :) :) :) :)

Riddler's Revenge-Can You Stand It?
I've only been on Riddlers Revenge, I hope to go on some others this summer. But RR is my favorite
i would say Riddler's Revenge
Georgia Scorcher would be my vote. It's not the biggest or fastest, it's just the best.
No one else finds B&M stand-ups to be boring(I've not ridden RRv so I can't say about that one)? The only one I actually liked was Iron Wolf. The transitions are so long and smooth. Even in the back seats, it was easy riding. So really, they do nothing for me. Thank goodness there's only 10 in the US. 2 I like(KC, IW). 2 I'll most likely like(Swave, Skyliner). 2 I hate(Mantis and Chang) and 4 I have yet to try(Vortex, Georgia Scorcher, Riddler's Revenge, Vortex(?). That's good for me. Cross my fingers I like RRv. I really want to.
Georgia Scorcher Rockzz!!!!
Banshee...er...Mantis.
