Go Skins Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 http://www.wtop.com/681/3692773/Zip-Zham-Swirl-Six-Flags-introduces-interactive-Batman-ride WASHINGTON - Ever wondered what it would feel like to swoop, swirl and soar like Batman? Thrill-seekers will be able to give it a try, thanks to a new roller coaster at a Six Flags in Texas. The theme park operator calls the ride a 4-D coaster. Riders will flip as they drop and zip along the track. The ride includes special effects, rises to 12 stories and includes two drops of more than 90 degrees, giving the sensation of freefalling mid-ride. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hR25KHmV6Lc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Skins Posted September 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 There is a ride called Batwing at Six Flags in Largo, MD in which you end up on your back for the entire ride. It's pretty nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Skins Posted September 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 I would go on this in a heartbeat. This is also coming from the same person that wanted to do accerlerated free fall on the first skydive ever, but couldn't talk friends into it. Heights don't phase me.

SnickyCat Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 They're removing the Mantis from Cedar Point. Hopefully it's to put in something like this bad boy! boo, the mantis rocks.Was up at the Point Saturday and road the Mantis one last time (Oct 19th is the last day to ride it). But the Mantis is not being removed. It is being transformed from a stand-up car coaster to a floorless sit-down coaster. It will be called Rougarou, which I think is some name for a European werewolf. http://youtu.be/Zey3WWThErw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
