CoasterXtreme Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 There seriously must be something wrong with me, I went to Busch Gardens Tampa on May 27th and my friend wanted to ride python. I was really surprised to find that the ride was acctually somehow smooth?!? And another thing I found weird is I went on Gwazi once and didn't want to ride it again all day because going down the drop it shook so much that it gave me an instant headache that lasted about 30 minutes. Is there something wrong with me?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebl Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 You sound perfectly normal to me. I rode Python once and found it to be smooth---for an Arrow, at least. Gwazi was closed the day I was there, so I never rode it, but I have heard that it can be rough, so your experience sounds, well, normal...

bgwfreak Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Phython from what I remember was kind of smooth for an arrow. plus it's very short and only 2 corks. As far as Gwazi, do you hold on or let your body go (raise your hands) during the ride? If you hold on maybe the vibrations of the ride were just a bit too much for you that day. I've had coasters give me a headache, but not very often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Token Yankee Guy Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 And another thing I found weird is I went on Gwazi once and didn't want to ride it again all day because going down the drop it shook so much that it gave me an instant headache that lasted about 30 minutes. Is there something wrong with me?!? Nothing wrong with you, that has happend to me before. My friend and I went on Superman and I got a bit of a headache, then I aggrivated it more by riding Thunderbolt. Yeah, Thunderbolt made me a bit sick. But I recovered fine when I got some liquid into my system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillMontu Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 I think they actually refurbished Python a year or so ago. They repainted it along with Scorpion. As for Gwazi, I like to "stand" so I'm just off the seat, but still held in by the lap bar (and seat belt) when going over the drops. Obviously, don't use the "Japanese riding position" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStig Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Actuially, Gwazi sucks. Its horribly rough and painful and should be avoided. Python is kinda smooth, the corks hurt alot but besides that its great. So you sound fine to me! Colin C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllisonY2K Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 blasphemy! I love Gwazi. I would rather ride that than Montu, Kumba, Scorpion or Python. ..and Python was smooth? they must have tightened up something. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
