This makes what.. 4 threads you've started tonight? Chill out on the new threads. I've been here for like.. 2 years or so and haven't started but half a dozen.

And no, not unless I need hydration or already had one.

You're not alone miadventuerocks22. I too get a headache on Magnum. Not to mention sore legs from the bunnyhops.

But it's still a good ride.

Yes, some times I do get off my first ride of the day, Magnum (We start in the back and go to the front, even if we don't get there till 4 PM) with my head throbbing and my brains feeling like scrambled eggs. But, other times, the pain is non-existent. Same with the leg pain [that is sometimes]caused by the bunny hops.On a side note, I agree with bholcomb in saying chillout about the starting of topics...you've been a member for two days and you have more posts than I have...and I'm a one year member, plus about 2 years of just reading without a username. But, it's not that big of a deal, so don't worry...we'll still accept you as a CP fanatic.

I get headaches on magnum, corkscrew, and mantis.

raptor(though my favorite coaster) give me headaches sometimes.
magnum jus made my legs hurt

Raptor does, but it's just the first part of the cobra roll and that last tight turn into the brake run that gets me. Everything else is pure fun.

I used to get headaches on most roller coasters, esp. Mean Streak! I actually took Exedrin before riding for a while, then I stopped riding altogether until about 3 years ago. I found that tightening my stomach while riding actually took pressure off my head and neck region! Now I ride with no problem.

Magnum doesn't give me a problem...the only ride I've ever gotten a headache from was The Legend and that was after riding it like 4 times in 20 minutes one night.

I may get a little headache but, nothing to bad. My legs on the top do get sore from the bunnyhoppes.

I used to get headaches and a stiff neck. (I called it "Coaster Neck") Then I found out that if you just completely relax your body as the train goes over the first hill, you have much less trouble. Plus, when your body is so relaxed, it is like you are floating on air on the way down the big hill. Very cool sensation.

Nothing will prevent the bruises and sore spots from the bunny hills, except experimentation with the lap belts and safety bars to find what works for you. Magnum is a relentless coaster. From the first drop to the last stop it is nothing but full-tilt-boogie.

I rode Magnum today and it was a quality ride, not too rough and no headaches :)


We'll miss you MrScott and Pete

I have never had problems riding Magnum. Even on the days I managed over 80 rides!

I've had a few headaches after riding Corkscrew, but that's the only one I've had problems with.

I have gotten a few headaches from Magnum. For some reason, Wicked Twister has really been bothering me with headaches lately. It never used to. It's the banking up 90 degrees and into the twist that bothers me. It seems a little rough.
