As you enter the que, you are greeted by a sign overhead with the SUF logo. The Lo-Q entrance and the test seat are to your right. The pretzel loop is to your left, as well as posters of Superman's many enemies. As you continue forward, you walk under a short spot of shade, directly under the first drop where you can see some trims. You turn left, parallel to the pretzel loop, and walk under another roof, which is below the track after the pretzel loop, and right before the first swooping turn. There is another set of trim here. You then turn to your right, and pass under the brake run. There are posters of Superman and his allies on your right, while the second part of the brake run is on your left. Unless the crew is going pretty fast, you can guarantee that you'll spend some time there. If you're bored in line, it's also fun to talk to the people sitting there. You make a turn to the left, go a short distance, and turn right. This is where the line divides for the two stations. There is a very good chance that you will go to the right, unless you go on a weekend when they use both stations. You go up a staircase, take a left, and if the line is long enough, you will meet the person who will tell you where to sit. You ask to go the front, where you'll get the best ride. Try to get the left seat. You sit down and pull the very comfortable restraints down. As you pull them down, your leg holders will also close (if they don't, don't worry about it, they will do it for you). The ride ops come by to check your restraints, and after all four ops give the thumbs up, you will dispatch. Your legs quickly rotate upwards and you hear the cars lock in place. You go through the switch track, make a right turn, and head straight into the lift. You look down and see the last 540* turn with nothing under you but 100ft of air. As you peak the lift, you slope downwards and begin to bank and turn right, about 110*, passing over the blue roofs covering the que. You start to level out, and rise up, entering the pretzel loop, not feeling the trims at all. As you hit the peak, you will get a surprising, but very enjoyable touch of airtime. Then you suddenly dive towards the ground and level out on your back, feeling the insane G's. Don't forget to smile. Your head goes up, your feet quickly following. Just when you hit the top you dive back down to quickly level out and enter a banked 540* elevated left turn that goes back through the pretzel loop and slopes gradually down right over the que, following the terrain back upwards, while you don't notice this trim again. You enter the first swooping 180* turn. It goes by really quickly, and you can really feel your body pressing against the foamy restraint. Once again, you follow the ground over to the next swooping turn, pushing against your restraint again. You slope back towards the ground and go through a very small tunnel. You bank to the right turn 540* and roll over in the barrel roll. You go up a very small incline (about a foot), and hit the brakes. Then you go into about a 140* turn, into the second brakes, where you'll probably be held for a minute or two. You go back through the switch track and into the station. Your legs swing back down, the floor rises, and back home. You exit towards the center between the two stations, and through the SUF gift shop. |
Ratings: Themeing: 3\10 At least they tried, and the grass looks pretty good, but kind of over grown. Ride: 10/10 This ride is simply amazing. Every time I ride it, it is just as good as the last time. It never stops amazing me. Do what ever you can to get out here and ride it, it'll be worth it. |
