What are the official prices? When does it operate typically? How scary is it the first time? I will definitely go, even if I have to by myself, when I return in June.

Im pretty sure its 60 for 1 person 30 each for 2 and 15 each for 3 people not too sure tho. As for it being scary it really depends on if your afraid of heights because its alot higher than it looks its kinda scary going up because you sorta stop then go up then stop and go up until your at the top and thats when it seems like your really high up from the ground. I would suggest going on with friends because its ALOT more fun that way and its cheaper. But its a really fun experience. I wanna try going on the tallest one in the world when I have the chance. Make sure you pull the cord hard because I know I had a hard time pulling the ripcord and that freaked out me and my friends even more.
I thought the prices were 60 for 1, 45 for 2, or 30 for 2. I never went on it but in Six Flags Darien Lake I went on there Slingshot but it was like 40 dollars and I think much more scary because the cart goes upside down.
I've never been on the great america ride but I have been on Valley Fair's and Astroworld's and from those three experiences I can tell you I was shivering scared the first time but once they put us into flying position I was okay. In my opinion its worth every penny and its an amazing experience. It's one of those attractions where once you've done it, you can turn around and do it again in a heartbeat. Do It!
You are also better off doing it with 3 people. Because its cheaper per person and you fly much higher. I did the rip cord at Cedar Point with 2 other BIG people and we flew! I actually the cables were getting slack when we swung the first time.
I've always wanted to try it, but I guess I've never thought that it was worth that much money. Now that I think about it though, if you split it with a few people, it's not much at all.
