By this point in the ride you have sped up some hundred and
seventy-five feet in the air and inverted but your brain is still back
at the launch track trying to piece together the obscenely intense
experience that it just went through.
At this point in the ride which is about ten seconds into the experience
and eight point two seconds after Maxx Force's launch has had its way
with you your brain finally mutters some colorful expletive about what
just happened and you finally get to look around and notice that you are
way above the Whizzer.
With your brain catching up to your body you start actually experiencing
Maxx Force in real time as the train takes you through a "dog tongue"
inversion that inverts you, rolls out of it before inverting you once
more...
...before sending you plummeting earthward again.
If you have issues with heights as Maxx Force rolls over this is where
your acrophobia might kick in. For me it was a really relaxing
moment of tranquility after Maxx Force's stunning first act.
