/ Bad ride?
I'm just glad S&S is getting some more orders...they don't need to go under like everyone else is nowdays.

Well, James, you seem to have a stance contrary to what the market (as a whole) is saying. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I personally had a blast on Dorney's Swing.

I've been on the small version and loved it. I think a lot of people will love the ride.

^^ I rode Dorneys 3 times back in 2005.
It was just to short of a cycle... Once the ride starts getting "good" it just stops.

Kennywood's Swingshot was amazing. The airtime was sweet and despite being short it's still an amazing ride. Plus wait capacity is always low, and provides a quick thrill to alot of people in a short amount of time. Have any of you guys even ridden one of the bigger ones?

I have been on Lake Compounces' (KW clone) and then Thorpes (also the same as LCs and KW) and then Dorneys.
