SpectralN Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 Hi, Does anyone have any information about the status of FreeFall at SFMM, I am sure they are busy with Tatsu now (a very good thing) but before Snyder cuts (or increases ) funding to parks I hope FreeFall gets back up and running. It is a fun ride and probably one of the only rides that still gives me that "drop in the stomach" feeling that I wish I still got on other rides! Any information would be greatly appreciated!
4718 Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 It's dead for now, heard it was maintainance stuff or something......can't remember. Not that I really miss the "crunch on my shoulders feeling" though......
SharkTums Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 I thought I saw a car back on it the other day? Didn't look rehabbed though, but did look better than being in pieces under Scream! I would have a hard time believing they'd just take it out since they customized Riddler, with that stupid bunny hill that provides nothing and makes the rest of the ride kind of dumb, just for freefall! Who knows though!!! I also didn't think they'd actually put time and effort into putting a coaster on the mountain! I can take some pix tomorrow if you're interested.
ebl Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 "...bunny hill that provides nothing..." Oh, I don't know about that...I usually get some airtime going over it. Freefall is way outdated. SFMM needs a new tower ride. Eric
Gnome Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 ^ I agree with both statements, in the front on riddler's your feet will actually fly up. And they should replace free fall with an intamin drop tower.
haux Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 ^ I agree with both statements, in the front on riddler's your feet will actually fly up. And they should replace free fall with an intamin drop tower. Freefall is technically an Intamin drop tower.
DATman Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 I do miss frefall. I've had so many great rides on the thing, as a lot of my friends won't go on some of the big rides. The only problem with it is the brakes could use some work. I really like how the floor is see through though. Whenever we're going up the tower, I tell people to look down and it scares the crap outta them
arrowfanman Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 At fright fest, I saw a mechanic, like, inside of the track. He was really in there working on something. But he was smoking too, so perhaps he was just hiding somewhere for a smoke! "...bunny hill that provides nothing..." Oh, I don't know about that...I usually get some airtime going over it. Nope...in fact, it doesn't even seem be provide even all little bit of relief for your legs! Lol...At least for me.
Wes Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 Weird, I usually get a little floater air over that hill, the drop off the mid-course, and the final drop into the last cork.
