Raptor Restraints

Unless you are sitting front row, there is no way you're going to see the first 3 turns of Maverick coming. The transitions are really fast.

Maverick's seats are staggered theater-style, which was done to improve vision of all riders seated behind another. The last row on Maverick has a pretty good view of everything coming.

Unless you're talking about after true dark hits, because that's the only time you can't see what's coming on that ride.

Even that said, I contend that the twists after the shotgun turn are harder to see than the first three.

I don't have a problem anticipating the twists and turns on Maverick no matter where I'm sitting. If I continued to get my head boxed and ears ripped every time I rode it, I wouldn't do it. I can pretty much get through unscathed now, besides a minor clip every once in awhile.
