Mantis Future

Nothing is a big box of stupid like newspaper site comment sections.

^You or Walt have a list of favorites re: CP stories?

What does that have to do with the layout of the ride? If the ride is dull/terrible/boring/rough/what have you, changing the position you experience the ride in doesn't change the dull/terrible/boring/rough/what have you layout.

If I'm riding a coaster designed as a stand up coaster, than I like riding it standing up, the way it was designed to be enjoyed.

I think the layout is great. It has all of the great elements of a classic B&M coaster. I just find the vehicles horrible. You can drive the Blue Ridge Parkway in a nice, brand new vehicle and it be great. Try driving the same highway with a bicycle seat between your legs and constant pain on your legs. Not fun. Same highway, different experience.

"Ever wonder why you're not suppose to stand up on Mantis" was said in the video...I guess another hint??

I bet it's moreover a bit of nostalgia they put in the video..see one of the original teaser videos for Mantis after the name change. The vid is on Youtube, I've seen it before, just not currently.

^^ I thought that's what they said at first, but then I thought about it more and it sounds like he says "ever wonder why you're not supposed to step on a mantis". Not sure if that's a game changer or not, but...

Yeah it's "step on a Mantis" just search "cp mantis promo" they just did an echo to the original commercial.
