Arrangement: Riders are arranged 4 per tower side for a total of 12 passengers per Combo Ride accomodating 36 riders.
|
|
Notes: Here's a tip - hold out your arms & legs parallel to the ground, upon the drop this will enhance your free falling sensation. Based on S&S's Combo Ride model where the best of Space Shot and Turbo Drop are combined into one tower experience. Located in the Rockville area of the park. Ride footprint is 44 x 44 ft.
|
|
Structure: Towers are striated first with cobalt blue, aquamarine, yellow, and red going up the structure and brightly lit at night. The entrance sign is stylized as a gigantic old movie poster from the bijou at the Starlite Drive-in.
|
|
Features: Riders are secured by over-the-shoulder restraints and seat belts in modular, outward-facing open-air seats that leave your legs dangling freely in mid-air. The ride bolts toward the top of the tower bouncing briefly then after steadily slowing ascends to the top yielding amazing views of the park and other attractions; at night the view is something else. Once at the top, there is a brief belch of air, then you are forcibly turbo dropped down! After hitting bottom, you recoil halfway up before bouncing quickly & mercifully back to the launchpad.

Good choice for the park as it delivers two types of thrlls all within the same ride. I rate it 7 's
