The Roller-skater coaster's height
requirement is 36 inches or under if accompanied by an adult so Bond
got to ride it. He always gets so serious on rides but when he
gets off he wants right back on.
Bond did have a good time on the
Roller-skater but he got a bit spooked out because we sat in the back
and it really whipped over the top of the lift which scared him.
He ended up having a good ride though because during the final helix
he let out a "wheee" which means he liked it.
Ok, I recognize
the ride but something seems strange about the sign...Twisted Twins....I
thought they were sisters?
Shane asks "who are these sisters...I
thought they were twins?"
We asked around the park to see why the name was changed and were informed
that the kick ass 80's metal band Twisted Sisters complained to the park about the name before
the coasters were complete but the park went ahead with calling them
Twisted Sisters. Well it looks like the band finally won out by
forcing the park to rename the coaster...I guess it wasn't a kick ass
enough of a ride for Dee Snyder and the rest of the band! On a
side note they almost changed the name of the tracks from Lola and Stella
to Mary and Jane which would have been bad if you get the slang meaning
of Mary Jane.
They were only running one of the
sides due to the park being almost totally deserted but the twin or
is it still a sister performed really well with some nice airtime and
I thought I smelled grease on the tracks.
