As you can see on this picture the Super Cyclone's first drop gets
quite the reaction from riders.
That little guy in the front row was not happy but the girl in the back
seat was loving it.
During my visit to Santa's Village I found out that it was "Summer Camp
Day" with about 95% of guests being kids and the remaining 5% the young
adults who were there to supervise. I've got a ton of respect for
those teenagers doing the supervision as trying to herd a group of
twenty ten year olds through a park and to keep everyone together is
kind of like herding kittens....an impossible task.
After a quick plunge that takes riders up to the rides maximum speed of
thirty miles an hour the Super Cyclone heads into the sky...
