   What’s with all of the brake runs? Also, that opening flip/twist looks really cool and it looks like a very unique ride.

   I was thinking the same thing Stephen. That’s a lot of pauses in the action. I kind of wish they would’ve laid the ride out differently so there weren’t as many runs, but I hold judgment until I actually ride it. Hopefully, the park buildings and walkway, and of course the on-board media add a lot to the experience.

   I assume they’re block brakes and won’t necessarily be trimming all the time.

   The brake runs are ruling the ride. there are too many. I thought there could be more inversions than the twisty loop, which looks cool.

   Very unique roller coaster. I can see how they arent afraid of trying new things. And you guys are right about all these brake runs. They need to hold up on those. You build up all the adrenaline then it get ruined with another brake run!

   We loved the Rip Ride Rockit at Universal Florida. One thing I would like to find out is was there more than one type of DVD we could have bought. We bought one of my mother riding her first roller coaster (which was funny) but the DVD only shows a few seconds of her and the rest seems to be a commercial of the coaster. We were really hoping it would just show her since the DVD is being sent to our son in Afghanastan to put a smile on his face watching his Grandmother.
