Mantis was a lot of fun. The layouts very twisted & for my first stand-up coaster, it was just a unique concept. The inversions were good & I loved all of those banked turns at the end. I didnt really get a lot of headbanging on Mantis. I guess its probably b/c of me standing 61. Also, I did notice the trim on the first drop, but I didnt really feel that it was tuned up. It lost a pt. b/c of the bottom part of the restraints. Was it really necessary to put on a part of the restraint that holds your butt up the whole ride? It felt really funny on the whole ride & it was pretty uncomfortable. If they got rid of those, Mantis wouldve definitely got a 10 for originality. If you havent been on a stand-up b/f, try out Mantis at CP as youve experienced one of the tallest, longest, & fastest stand-up coasters w/a steep first drop.
