Pretty much, because it’s so goddamn fast, you don’t have time to scream lol. It’s literally almost 3 times the G-Force as free-fall. My trick with these types of rides is pretend like I’m pushing the accelerator pedal in a car 😂 BTW, never ridden in this, but Kingda Ka is the closest thing in we have in the States, and that thing is mental. Can’t imagine this.
@Cortekism No apparently it's actually too intense. It's been closed since late 2021 as there had been 4 spinal injuries reported from the ride since the revamp. Anecdotally and from this POV the ride seems really rough particularly the huge sweeping turn and the entrance to the loop, I suspect that might have more to do with it than the launch

I rode this and the anticipation of the launch is the scariest part!
You are bombed at a speed of 112 mph!

It feels like an firework launch but horizontally
the air spoke enchantment table
the music makes it more anticipating
Sad It Closed, But At Least My Home Theme Park Has Claimed The Record For Fastest Acceleration On A Launch!
We love Stealth
FujiQ: We will not compensate for lost wigs.
😂😂😂
I’m making one in planet coaster which goes 300+ MPH.
これは我が国の宝です
Air Powered Vertical Coaster 1 looks too intense for me!
It's so good.
It pushes you back against the seat and you are doing 80kmph before you leave the launch tunnel.
Definitely worth it, very unique

Yeah it was excellent. Bones heal, sad they shut it down.
