A candidate for SFNEs best flat ride, Tomahawk swings back and forth while spinning at the same time. Usually, the ride starts out spinning mildly, dont let this fool you. It then starts spinning in the other direction at a very fast speed, and as fast as that is, they usually crank it to "ultra" speed in the last few seconds of the ride. If you enjoy spinning rides, this may be your nirvana. If you tend to get ill on spinning rides, then DO NOT RIDE, this ride will be pure torture for you.

Rides never get me sick, so this was perfect. It got better and better as it went. Fianlly, near the end, it was so strong it was like just pulling you into the seat completely with the spin. It was very fun and worth the wait. The ride was also long enough to satisfy me, although I wish the strong part came in a little bit earlier.

I loved this ride. As a fan of Huss rides, I could tell that SFNE could have opened this ride up a lot wider (if this were at Coney Island, there had better be a hose close by.) Anyways, the first swing/rotation was fun, but on the reverse, the ride really kicks and your head practically gets pinned on the head rest due to the positive Gs. There are now even more evil versions of this ride out there, but if you are a spin-N-barf fan, give this ride a "whirl". If rotating is not your thing, best keep clear. This proves that there are no bad Huss rides.

Very fun ride, though not as good as the Claw at Hershey

A fun ride, and its very relaxing actually. Makes me want to fall asleep. Twards the end, they change your direction of rotation, and spin you like mad. Pretty intense.

I love this ride. One of the best flats at the park along with Time Warp & Nightwing.

Fun ride, no line, just not all that exciting.

I was a little uncertain what # to rate this. Its got thrills - and serious Hurl Potential. If you dont cope well with spinning rides in general - avoid it! If you like such rides - welcome to paradise. Picture the classic pirate-ship style pendulum... except the car you ride in is a circle that spins as it swings back and forth. Spins really fast. Then changes the direction of the spinning. I finished it thinking "stop the world, please, Id like to get off".

wow, i love this ride, one of my absolute favorite flat designs! iv never seen this anywhere else, so for me at least its home is SFNE, and i anit complainin. if u have a tolerace for spining rides, gotta get on this, u can do it multiple times in the same amount of time it takes to do almost any of the coasters in the park (w/ the exception of SRoS). i just would sugest it right after eating, unless u have a really though stomach, i mean REALLY tough!

Good ride and im always sure to do it a couple times. Probably the best flat ride in SFNE just dont ride it if ur feelin sick. Best part is the end.
