What Ride Still Gives You That Feeling?

What ride at Cedar Point always gives you that scared feeling that you ask your self, "Do I really want to do this" For me its Power Tower, waiting in lne watching the people drop still gets me freaked out.

Mean Streak-I always wonder if the ride is worth going to the chiropractor! NOPE! hahahahahahaha!

Yeah, but Power Tower's drop side gives me more of a "I shouldn't be up this high" feeling, and it also give we the "Loosing the stomach" feeling.

In that case Raptor gives be the coolest feeling in my stomach on that 1st drop and PT is always scary like that! Peace!

Any freefall ride gives me the creeps... time after time. Kennywood's PittFall is the worst.

No ride per say can give me that "feeling", but every time I tackle Ripcord it gets worse. The first time, I loved it, the second time I was freaking out going up, and the third time I was almost panicking. There's not likely to be a fourth time!

This is a weird question. Reason being that I've done Ripcord, I've gone skydiving several times. Neither of them really scare me (well that 'ok now it's time to jump out of a perfectly good airplane' feeling right when I'm going out the door is weird) but at CP it has to be the 'lock in' at the top of the 'down' part of Power Tower.

That split second where the brakes engage to lock you, always gets me. The sitting up there is great, the fall is great, but the lock does it.

Power Tower. Totaly, waiting for that launch.

Also my first ride on Magnum every year. It's the lift hill man...it's the lift.

If she weighs as much as a duck, she's made of wood, and therefore a witch.

Iron Dragon's lift hill always gets to me. I always think it's gonna stop, even though I know it wont.

Also, getting at the top of a lift and waiting to fall gets to me sometimes.

Not even close... Power Tower. It took me 2 years to ride without holding the bars.

I still can't ride freefalls without holding on... they're just too freaky for me.

I've only done a skycoaster once... Kennywood's. I thought it was absolutely awesome. This season, I want to pull the cord. I'm big, though, so maybe I'll go by myself or just with one other person, because normally I'd have to be in the middle of three people.

I can't wait to go skydiving one day. Honestly. I used to think it's crazy, but lately I've really wanted to do it.

The first time I rode The Force I was pumped. I wasn't afraid at all. Later in the day, for some reason, I was afraid as we pulled oot of the station. It was crazy, but it only happened that second ride. That was the only time I was afraid of a thrillride.

I never know when that bar may pop.

When I ride Power Tower I try not to look up. When you think you almost at the top and then you se how much farther you heve to go then I get the "feeling".

-------------
Remember, line jumping is NOT a sporting event!

This year I didn't seem to experience that "feeling" on any of the rides at CP - it was more fun than scary. But when I rode the Skycoaster at MGM Grand in Las Vegas alone, that was a different story...

Only time this year was the first time I rode MF, after that, no feelings of unsureness. I got it like 2 years in a row on PT though, just not this year.

Trim brakes-a necessity???

Yes, Power Tower (going down) is still the only ride that "scares" me on a constant bases. Being 260 some feet in the air with nothing but a little chair to keep you from falling is probably what does it. Looking up or down during any part of the ride freaks me out. I just look out at the nice view. When I heard the BANG when I reached the top for the first time I think my heart stopped for a few seconds. The anticipation of dropping is the worst. I watch it from the ground, and lets say on a particular day you sit 15 seconds at the top. Then when I am up there I try to time the drop, but somehow count to 60 because I am so nervous. At night it is real bad too. Its like "what am I doing up here? I should be in bed." Once you drop though it is great.

Other than that, Sometimes I think I am going to be decapitated by Disaster Transports Scenery in the darker portions of the ride.

Also, sometimes while at the top of Magnums lift I Think the chain will snap. Because chains snap, when on Raptor, I always wonder how they would get people off, because their is nothing but that chain link fence to step on.

But when on MF, its like BRING IT ON. I dont worry a bit

There is a platform that is at the base of the lift hill that they drive up a seperate track with a gas powered (?) motor.

It has a place for people to get off and then walk down the steps.

For some reason, I always think I'm going to die on the Mantis. I guess it's just the intense g-forces that get to me. I haven't blacked out yet, but I always tell myself that if any coaster will make me black out or have a heart attack, it would proobably be the Mantis.

I don't know if it's considered a ride, but North Coast Parasailing always gives me that feeling.

Actually in the Cedar Point gates, I would have to say Power Tower. Although Millennium Force gave that similar high feeling.
