Which would you want? Two spiral spikes or one?

I would rather see one only because it could have a brake then.

However, it will have a cool effect I think...being pulled backwards trough a spiral.

your thought??

I don't understand why everyone thinks this one second of the previous rides is that important. Yeah, it's OK, but the twist has always been where it's at for me, and you used to not get it in the back seat. Now you do.

Well no one can really compare one spike vs. two spikes until Wicked Twister actually opens.  When I rode an impulse at Six Flags Great America the brake was a really cool part of the ride.
Jeff, I totally agree! I am so damn excited to rush up the second spiral backwards at 72 mph...

And even more exciting going down and back up and down and so and so... I think the fun of spiraling down would be just as good as the pause on other impulsesi lots of airtime, too!

I perfer the one spiral..the best part of this ride is the straight away that brakes you at the top and hangs ya there for a second leaving you lean against your harness...
I have to agree that i like the 1 spike, but I am not going to make a judgement untill I try the 2 spikes for myself!
I personally think they should reconsider and build it with 2.

Again Tohot2se.. how do you KNOW it's the best part?? You've never BEEN on one with two sirals.. none of us have...

Now if it's YOUR favorite part.. fine but to say it's the best part period without having ridden it.. well.. nevermind....

i like the free-fall of the nonspike...although I like the spike to...guess I'll have to wait until May to judge for sure.

I think you'd get the same amount of freefall on this ride.  You may be twisting, but you're also going straight down... who knows!?

"Ugh..."
ohh...motion sickness..ohh....

joke.

 

I have never been on an Impulse..suffice to say,  i can't say either way...for me, it will be a new experience..

Oh, wait, it already shocked me, its Tuesday..

I'd be happy either way.  I think Wicked Twister will have it's own unique feel.  Of course, I feel that way about all of Cedar Point's coasters.

Once again Red Garter...I can say I would prefer the straightaway and would like it to only have one spiral spike.. ..for the fact, on Superman...I prefered the straightaway to the spiral on that ride.( in fact I kind of wish it was two straightaways, with no spiral, thats how much I liked the straightaway over the spiral).thats how I can say which one I would think I would prefer..geesh arent people entitled to their opinion anymore?  The topic of this thread is which one would you want..two spiral spikes or one..and I gave my view on it..another question would be...I dont see you picking on anyone else for their opinion..why call me out?
