The Twister is a flat ride. It is average speed, it is fun, rerideable, it has a large capacity, and a long duration.

Fun flat, but the one nearby at Williams Grove was superior to this one. Loading took a long time on this one, but the cycle was decent. There wasnt too much spinning, but when the ride did spin, the spins were very powerful and heavy on the Gs.

Even though the op was changing the speed (which can really make the cars on this ride spin) there was not that much spinning, at least not with the car that we rode. Fun ride, but a bit of a dissapointment considering what these rides are capable of.

This ride is... not the most beautiful thing on earth. But... it is kind of "beautiful"... in a carnie type of way. In line (a pleasantly short one, by the way) I was a little afraid. Definately not as afraid as I was in line for the Toboggan, but a little bit afraid... With all that Ive read about Williams Groves Twister. The restraints are really weird. I think that they were like the pouffy cloth things that they sometimes use on bumper cars. The ride operator was VERY particular about the way you wore them though. So he was taking forever to check everyones restraints multiple times (at Lakemont? *gasp*), then his friends came over, through the gate, to talk to him. So they talked for like five minutes while we all waited for this dude to start the ride. Enough time to make the decision to not go on the Round-Up, which was right next to me, creaking and moving when people walked on. When he did finally start it up, it was decent. I mean, it didnt spin very much, but when it did, it really spun. I let out a shreik or two, and Ive really been trying not to let myself scream on things, like roller coasters (coincedently, the Twister at Knoebels is the biggest drop Ive done without screaming). I sat in the back, and it was a pretty good ride. I would go on it again, but I dont like to hold my family back (which is unfortunate, being a coaster enthusiast). I didnt come off dizzy or anything, but it was still a good ride. By the way, I have a picture of the ride... Ill put it on here if anyone wants to see. The last time I rode this was on June 7, 2006.

I thought it was a decent ride similar to a Break Dance in motion. However, the cars here dont make a complete 360 degree spinning rotation meaning this ride pales in comparison to the insanely run one at Williams Grove. As coaster05 says the configuration of the cars is weird looking. FYI - The back seats are padding but the front ones are not.

not in the best of shape but still an interesting ride. it has the weird 4 person cars with two rows and it goes arond an outer circle whil the cars also turn. pretty fun experience especially if you dont want a lot of circles in your ride. i believe someone said this type was also at indian beach and i believe adriana was interested in where one was located. so if this is that ride type visit lakemont they could use a visit.
