I got Bond on the copy of Batman at Six Flags St. Louis and he fell
in love with it. I went from maybe riding this design once a year
to riding it twenty times a visit to the park. Batman at Six flags
Great America became Bond's 50th coaster.
I still get a little queasy on Batman but after Bond and my little marathon
sessions I can take it five or six times before I have to take a break.
Batman as a ride is just extreme chaos and a rider it's best to just sit
back, stick your arms out and scream your head off while you fly through
the tangle of track. At least that's what Bond does.
When we visit Six Flags Great America with my Mom we always hit Whirligig
as it's her favorite ride. When I was a kid we'd ride it, run around
and ride it again because it was so much fun and it still makes me want
to run around for one more ride as an adult.
