Before you get to the lift the Dipper
likes to confuse you a but. After dropping out of the station you head
into a tunnel that twists and turns you all around so you're not that sure
where you are.
The Giant Dipper has a legendary lift
hill sound...it sounds like a marimba band. It's pretty cool.
The Giant Dipper's first drop really rocks.
I love turning drops. They give you great lateral and positive G's and
it gives you a great out of control feel to a ride.
Here you can see the first drop as well
as several of the rides they have at Belmont Park. Personally I can't
pass up a tilt a whirl, they are just so fun, especially if you get a real
spinner.
