How scary are v2 and vu compared to some ohter rides?
Stats:Raging Bull:1
Demon:1 Batman:1 Amrimcan Eagle Red:3 Viper:4 Whizzer:5 Iron Wolf:1/4 (I thought about going on it)
I don't think any of the rides there are scary (except for spacelys) but they arent bad at all.
Vu isnt that scary, if you rode V2 and Demon, you will be able to ride Vu
V2 also isnt scary, if you rode Vu or Bull, you will be able to ride V2 Last edited by Danhockey04 on September 14th, 2005, 5:47 pm, edited 1 time in total.

Speaking of V2, I wonder how this one is at SFMWorld. It looks really weird. Instead of the twisted thing going straight up, it goes sideways. http://rcdb.com/ig1143.htm
I heard it is cool, since they are inversions instead of turns

V2 is not so bad, but Deja Vu's first tower is slightly scary. However, they are both great rides so i would suggest giving them a try.

I'd rather have SFMW's v2 than ours, it looks a lot cooler.

I myself am TERRIFIED of V2. I have rode it twice and still come off of it shaking, NOT gettin on it again. But for me its the getting shot out of the station at 60+ mph.
Vu is pretty cool, the only thing scary about the towers is the seat belt loosening as you go up the first tower....but the seatbelt is redundant, the harnesses are fine. But other than that, not really scary at all. Welcome to ShockWave please pull your harness down as far as it will go. While riding ShockWave please keep your hands and feet inside the car, and your head against the headrest, please hold on to all loose articles, especially hats and glasses. Enjoy your ride!
your kidding me
ok shockwavegirl may be scared but thats not what its really like. just ride it and youll have a blast!  2006 Dodge HennessY Venom 100 Coupe Viper

On Vu if you dont have a good upper body your harness will stick out(alot) anyone know why that is. Ive heard its because people pull there harnesses down at the wrong time
Giant drop is the best ride ever!

it all depends on
a) which seat you're in and b) the time you pull it down sometimes
They aren't scary at all. You'll like em'
V2 is in the category for first coaster to ride as a kid. Its not scary at all. Vu is probably one of the last ones to go on after Raging Bull, but I don't know cause I go on all of them anyway.

What's BS is that the harnesses don't go down (which they have ever time I've ridden it) because of people pulling the harness down at the wrong time.

Yeah. Only the first tower is scary. The boomerang turs are a little rough on the head so keep your head back. "There should be a B.O. squad that patrols the city like a "Smell Gestapo". To sniff 'em out, strip 'em down, and wash them with a big, soapy brush..."
"Why is nice bad? What kind of a sick society are we living in when nice is bad?"
I think from a scale one to ten...
V2-5 Vu-9 On Vertical Velocity, the launch really gets me everytime and it freaks me out a little bit. Also, when you get stoped on the last time up the north tower, then gets you also, but its not too bad. Deja Vu is a very freaky coaster. Just going up the first tower freaks you out. Mainly because your thinking if your restrain can hold your wieght because it sort of moves a little while your going up the hill. Then the butterfly is really fun and a little scary and going up the tower is also a little freaky. Going backwards is a real rush. Frieght Fest!!!
OCTOBER 22ND!
well when are you supposed to pull it down? Giant drop is the best ride ever!

If this is over Vu harnesses - here's the story:
The ops have to physically check the orange seatbelt. They can't do this with the harnesses down because they get in the way. So they leave the harnesses unlocked until the orange seatbelts are checked. I myself have accidentally pulled it down once. They just pushed it back up, checked it, and moved on. Then they lock all the harnesses and check those. At first I think they first locked the harnesses, tried to check the orange seatbelt, pull the harness down and check the harness. The problem was people forgot to leave the harness in the air and since they were already locked it took time to manually unlock them. So the new system works better.
so your saying that we should pull them down AFTER they check are seatbelts
