Carnage Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Steer right as high as you can go, steer left as far as you can go. When you dive back down swing the sail hard to the right at the last moment. Repeat. It's not that hard once you get the hang of it. Though not all flyers will snap.
Erik Johnson Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 Just remember that some parks will not allow you to snap. If there is a sign that says, "No Snapping," make sure you follow the rules.
Guest Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 Best place to snap flyers is Knoebels. PPP (Phoenix Phall Phunfest) is the best time of year to see the crazy ass enthusiasts snap the hell out of some flyers. Here is one of Ted's videos. He is one of the Kings of Snappage.
phazan Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 ^Dude, there is a video right above your post that shows it!!
cobra_roll06 Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 ^Em i've just watched the video and i'm not even sure what snappage is?
Carnage Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 "snapping" is when you get the cable to go slack, causing the tub to stall, and then the cable snaps back causing the tub to speed up. When done properly you can get some crazy air on them.
JamminJ Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 Best place to snap flyers is Knoebels. And Carowinds.
spaceace12 Posted July 21, 2007 Author Posted July 21, 2007 Thank you all for the help. I didn't get IB's flyer to snap, but only halfway try due to the no snapping sign on the ride.
coasterJunkie94 Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 haha just Tried it at Lakeside last night!! Awesome thought i was gonna fly out!
bigjohnson51 Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Has anyone been able to snap the flyers at Holiday World? When I went I couldn't figure it out. I'm going to Celebration City next weekend. Does anyone know if they have good flyers?
Carnage Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 ^ The HW one's won't snap. CC's flyer's weren't all that good either.
Guest Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 I actually snapped Holiday World's flyers at HWN. It was windy enough for one snap and that was it.
Angry_Gumball Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Are Great America's (California) Flying Eagles ride snappable? I have ridden it but had no clue to what snapping exactly was. I did get some nice high swings and some sudden inward swoops on it though.
Vekoma Fan Boy Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 How are the flyers at Canobie? Do they snap well?
