I was a little put off when the ride op stapled me tightly into the seat. I mean it felt like the lap bar was bruising some ribs and some internal organs. HOWEVER.... Once this beast hit the fan and the train topped the second hill (and every hill after that) and the only thing that was holding me back from that ejector seat air time was the lap bar, I was thankful that it was snug as it was. This ride is FAST... and SMOOTH. While it is intense, it is not brutal... it is very reridable. A conventional wooden coaster of this size and speed (constant speed from the first drop to the station break run) would jolt you around so much that it would be escruciating (i.e. The Voyage)... but this "Plug and Play" design makes the ride wild, intense and extreme... but FUN!!!! First coaster that acutally "frightened" me by catching me off guard in a LONG time.
