The Steel Vengance Rollercoaster at Cedar Point, Sandusky, Ohio

Steel Vengeance has a pair of zero G rolls that wrap around the coasters lift hill.

Now I have been heaping praise on Steel Vengeance but it's time to talk about the second half of the ride where the ride really doesn't do it for me.

There aren't many photos of the second half of the ride because you pretty much dive into the massive structure of the coaster.

The second half pretty much consists of a couple of inversions which were really fun and a bunch of small airtime hills.

You must be thinking "What's wrong with that"?  Well the loops were great but being violently thrown up into the thin lap bar with enough force that it felt like both of my femurs were going to snap really ruined the ride for me.  The sharp pain with every hill that had me seriously wondering if my coaster trip was going to end with me in the hospital.  I'm game for a coaster being aggressive and I can deal with a little pain (example:  the return hops on Magnum XL-200) but this just completely turned me off on Steel Vengeance.  It's a shame as I loved the first half but until they maybe put in clamshell restraints that spread out the force on a wider part of my legs I'm not going to make a beeline for this coaster.
