enochwaited in line for 3 hours for a 1 minute ride.
WOO-H..wait..it's over?
bobr3940Roller coaster design seems to be stuck in a loop of designing extremes (height, speed, loops, etc). While those are fun you usually end up in the position that enoch mentions, a 3 hour wait for a 1- 2 minute ride. I would much rather have a roller coaster ride with less extremes but a longer duration. A coaster ride that lasted 3-5 minutes would be much more enticing to me than this continued push for short duration extremes.

poolcleanerI thought the same thing until I rode Tatsu and X2 at Six Flags. They were innovative designs that make you are not in a rollercoaster, as though you are flying. The cars also split up and twist in unexpected ways. I think the real feat is to make it feel as though you are no longer strapped in. A fully weightless rollercoaster.
