canadianfreak Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 sky screamer at marineland lol dont kno why but it has a good view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumboshrmp Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 The only one I've been on is Dr. Doom's Fear Fall. The launch is good and the pop of ejector air at the top was very unexpected, but the actually feeling of falling is not there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeemerBoy Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 ^ We may be in the minority on this one, but I agree with you. I love this tower shot. The theming, the storyline, the closed door anticipation of the launch, the nice airtime pop......it all works very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterman7 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Dr. Doom's Fearfall (cause it's the only one I've been on) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCTfan Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I have a feeling I'm going to be in a minority. I LOVE the tower at Indiana Beach. Forgive me for not remembering the name of it. Its a shorter tower, probably of 70ish feet. But, there are more than one pop of airtime. I loved it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShannonSomerville Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Power Tower at CP,followed by Dominator at Dorney(my very first one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worm Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Blue Fall and Dropzone!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo210 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I think your being Sarcastic but Blue Fall and Drop Zone are not S&S Towers. I think mine will be Starblaster at CaLP since I'm going there again in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electerik Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Toss in another vote for Doctor Doom's Fearfall, at IOA; It's a great space shot, with excellent theming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkTrips Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I have a feeling I'm going to be in a minority. I LOVE the tower at Indiana Beach. Forgive me for not remembering the name of it. I agree - and its simply called "Double Shot" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Spaceshot @ Wiener Prater. It may be expensive (5 euros), but you get 4 ride cycles for that price, and each one gives you massive ejector airtime at the top of the 200ft tower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeemerBoy Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Oh wait, how could I forget "Big Shot" @ Stratosphere!? That edges out Dr. Doom by a nose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhishyBrewer Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I like the one that goes really high and then you fall really fast and bounce and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I also like Sky Screamer best, the location alone is awesome. Maliboomer is also cool because of the boardwalk setting. Other S&S's I have been on are... Scream (SFNE) Starblaster (Canobie) Dragon's Descent (Funtown) Dr. Doom Seaside Heights' Tower Power Tower Dominator Supreme Scream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree - and its simply called "Double Shot" YES!!! Double Shot is amazing! You're definitely not in the minority! That second fall is quite possibly the best ejector airtime EVER.

lapseofreason Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Big Shot!! Being 105 stories up in the air or whatever to begin with adds a total new level of fear to the ride. I still get scared every time I ride it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinschroder Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I like the one that goes really high and then you fall really fast and bounce and stuff. Yeaaahhh - that one is ace! I think I rode it too! I just can't get enough of those S&S Turbo Drops - especially Power Tower @ CP and Supreme Scream @ KBF! The funny thing about any drop towers for me is that they really freak me out every time - I can't stand waiting at the top to drop. Very few rollercoasters give me that same sense of fear / anticipation anymore - I think I've become immune! I'd love to have a go on one of those kerazy Double Shots [edit: am I getting confused with the Combo Towers?] - what's the deal with those - do you get blasted up like a Space Shot, then immediately blasted down like a Turbo Drop?

eskater132 Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 yeah, I've only rode 3 S&S towers Superman: Tower of Power at SFoT Dr Doom's Fearfall Scream; SFFT the thing is that hardly anyone in this forum has rode superman: tower of power, it's the tallest and fastest and most airtime filled of them all, it does a double shot and a turbo drop on just one tower, and it has a cool hat to it, or whatever you put on the top of a tri-tower! SEE HOW COOL THIS IS! SEE HOW COOL THIS IS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattJackson Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Yeah, I'll have to say Dominator at Dorney Park. It gives you a good view if you sit on the side facing towards WWK. And that boom sound you hear when the Space Shot side reaches it's maximum height it cool too. I don't know if it's like that on any other S&S Space Shot ride, but it's cool.

Millennium ForceJZ Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I love Power Tower at CPb/c of all the views of he lake and the park Fav Drop Tower - Drop Zone - 300ft free fall kicks ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Sabo Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I personally haven't ridden this one, but I would add the space shot at Las Vegas-Stratosphere tower. I believe one member posted this and suprised more haven't put that on the list; unless no one has had a chance to ride it (including me). I would expect that view must be incredible-especially at nite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okinawaboy11 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Uh well, I like the Turbor Drop from S&S But if we talk about any Drop Towers. My Fav is any Intamin 2nd Gen Freefall tower. I even like the 1st gen ones (Rare, I know) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
