3rd hill steepness

So why isn't this hill any steeper? It looks like it's only 45 degrees if that! Imagine the explosive airtime that hill COULD produce if it was steeper.
Maybe Cedar Point wanted a really nice long floater hill...since they already have ejector air in the park.
3 seconds of airtime on that hill, It couldn't be too much steeper. You don't want two hills that have a similar drop.

Actually, I think Duane timed the airtime at 4-5 seconds, not sure which one though...
Depends on the seat, I'd think. The longest I had timed was 4.1. That was in seat 5.1. I've only carted the stopwatch three times though.

Hehe, I've timed it numerous times. The most was in 5-1 which yielded well over 5 seconds of air (forgot actual time). That was not to long ago when it was running real fast and the lap bar wasn't really in the way :).
