2012jarrett Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Fuji-Q is definitely a bucket list park for me. This, Fujiyama, Eejanaika, and Takabisha all look like fun. Unfortunately this is the only park in Japan I have any desire to visit. Maybe Nagashima or Disneysea as well. And that launch looks so messed up!

cfc Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 What Kings Dominion should've invested in.......Hypersonic was dumb compared to this! Hypersonic was a prototype; some poor sucker had to be first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoppy Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I rode this a few times despite the terrible load times and crazy long wait for anything. The one day I made it there was well worth it even chasing all the trains out of Tokyo just to get there but we knew we were there when we got some of the best views of Mt Fuji! That was also my first time riding a 4D and loved Eeja - it was smooth that one time but must suck everytime Robb has been there beating him up. His expressions after all the rides at Fuji-Q are priceless. I cannot wait to go back to Japan - a TPR trip would make it even better. Best time of my life!

Hhappy Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Glad I got to ride it when I did. I miss Japan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disney4me2001 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 How about one of the world's fastest coasters in one of the world's worst parks? Why does this instantly make me think of SFMM? Still, it's better than nothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coreysaysyo Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 lol to be honest I would like to ride it, but its pretty much like hypersonic, and I just did not like hypersonic at all. So yeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I remember my eyeballs feeling like they were being pulled out of their sockets, on this thing. Fun times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SingleRiderCam Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 This ride looked good for my bucket list, but I avoided it since I don't even want to go into Fuji-Q. Only if this park and Six Flags Magic Mountain actually operated the right way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozenflames Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 As far as videos go, the commentary was one of the most entertaining ones I've heard. For the coaster, that launch looks actually frightening. I haven't been on too many launch coasters, but Dodonpa looks like it would have me shaking. Interesting, though, that Fuji-Q is able to keep the ride at a decent condition, given what I've read about the rest of the rides there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmullin Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I would love to try it, the launch seems crazy, but I probably won't ever make it to Japan to ride it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronWolfman Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I haven't been on RoS, but it's in New York and I'm in Colorado so :/ I have ridden Bizarro (SFNE) though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie200330 Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Been on SFA's version....pretty decent ride with some sweet airtime!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamico2 Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 While the layout may be rather uninspired, it truly provides a great ride, with airtime ranging from floater (hill 2) to extreme ejector (hill 3). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chieftom1 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 With the smaller hills in the beginning I thought for sure the highest hill would come at the end with a long lift hill up to the station. Boy was I ever wrong! I did enjoy the video and the quickness belies the smallness, maybe. I'd sure like a 'Bag-of Crap', btw. LOL!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gerstlaueringvar Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Those final hills look SWEET! Definitely will ride it someday, with Lake Monster! Those helixes looks pretty intense, do they grey people out like the one on Titan? btw, I'd like a Bag-O-Crap too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arby Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 This looks like a fun ride! I haven't made it to Darien Lake, yet, but it is planned within the next few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jokey Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I haven't been to Darien Lake yet to ride Superman even though it is just a few hours away. Hope to go down to check out the park soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
