I saw plenty pictures of Dragster before I went to the park and saw it and person and I couldn't believe how huge it was, it was so much bigger than I anticipated. I've seen Psyclone, a Huss Frisbee at Paramount Canada's Wonderland and it is really huge, I can't wait to see how big maXair will be since it is a Giant Frisbee.

The only types of pictures that sort of do justice are aerial photos. But I also agree about the whole Dragster being bigger in real life than in pictures(I could tell you what I was thinking when I first saw it up close but I want to stay a member of PointBuzz). Anyway, I'm sure the same thing can be said for maXair.
But just to think of scale, the structure is only as tall as Cork Screw, small right? BUT also keep in mind that at full swing, maXair will be just as tall as Mantis! And that means it will be easily visable from alot of areas in the park.

Is it just me, or does the whole structure seem a bit smaller than Delirium??
It's the lens on the camera.

The most similar ride I've ridden would be a KMG Afterburner, which exerts a LOT of force. Regular Frisbees (inward facing) are not very forceful. But, they are much smaller. I would suspect that this ride WILL cause you (Gomez) nausea.
At the turn of the Millennium, there were signs. Was the something out there?... A mysterious force at work? Beyond words. Beyond comprehension. Beyond, beyond beyond… A natural force simply known as, Millennium Force. The future is riding on it.…

Do frisbee rides feel like pirate ship rides? Ocean Motion is one of the only rides my stomach doesn't like.
Delirium at PKI doesn't give me that weightless feeling. Even without that feeling, it's still an awesome ride. I'm closer to PKI than CP, and I rode Delirium so many times over the summer, and it never gets boring.
Delirium at PKI felt nothing like ocean motion or any of those swinging ship rides, it was just pure speed and staring at the sky. The g's are suprisingly forceful as well. Amazing ride in my opinion, one of my favorite flats.

It's just you. See previous post. You'd think with your minute-by-minute play-by-play that you might have caught that.
