After being impressed with T2 just a month ago and after comming off the ride happy three years ago, I was expecting big things from this SLC. Well, I got off with a horrible taste in my mouth and with a new name for the ride: Ear Eraser. None of my ride partners that day were impressed with Ear Eraser also. The roughness really starts after the first inversion. Well, actually during, but it gets really bad after that. The turns are brutal and even my favortie inversion types: the heartline rolls were not fun on this thing. Not only was there headbanging (all though with me, it was more ear-banging) the coaster was extremely shaky, bumpy and all in all just not running well at all yesterday. Vekoma SLCs have a great layout, and I still do love T2, but that layout isnt even enough to salvage this thing from being two notches below average for me. The roughness actually ruined the ride for me, and I am usually a high-tollerance rider. My ears were the same color as erasers after the ride, thus the name. Props for the cool ride-opps and two train opperation, but I would have much rather prefered that on any of the other steel coasters than this piece of crap.
