 Review of Looper @ Knoebels
1 Rating Posted by: Cyclonic on 9/29/2005 12:12:00 PM
The Looper is almost as fun to watch as it is to ride, and that is saying a lot as it is a blast to ride.

Basically, the way the ride works, you sit opposite another rider in a cage on a long arm that is connected to a central hub. The hub turns your and nine other cages. As it picks up speed you can engage a foot clutch that will grab onto a spinning wheel and thus spin your cage end over end.

It is great fun to have the cage spinning over and over again, makeing for a wild ride. But, it is also a good workout. You really have to hold hard down on the clutch to do it, or rock the car back and forth.

It is certainly an above average ride due to it unusualness and rider interactivity, but it takes a lot of work to get the most out of it.

Looks like you better hold off on the pierogies LOL Im glad to hear that it is a fun ride. I dont mind rides that make you work though, so I hope it is a great time.

That was empty when I went to Knoebels. Its great that they filled it in with a classic ride.

"Another" classic? Are you calling Whirlwind a classic, or are you saying that they have a bunch of classics there already and it is cool that they put in another? Because calling Whirlwind a classic would be just crazy. Of course, come to think of it, coming from you would not be so surprising. LOL
