Does anyone else have a problem with the seat divider on wooden coasters? The Phoenix and Twister at Knoebles are great examples. The Racer at kennywood. Hercules at Dorney. I can't rememeber if Mean streak at CP has them or not. I think the divider takes a lot out of the ride.

<BR>Take out the middle dividers and some great coasters will get even greater!

I agree most of the seat dividers are unnessacary.

Seat Dividers are totally unnecessary on woodies, b/c I like being able to slide around and squish the other person.

I agree. They should go. A wooden coaster is supposed to throw you all over the place.

some coasters would be painful w\o a seat divider like shivering timbers but other than that they suck

Well, I'm kinda glad they are there. If I'm sitting with someone I don't know I don't really want to be smashing into them, and they probably don't want me smashing into them either.
