The SpongeBob Shimmy (Nick Universe)

[coast4airtime1]

Think of it this way, what is easier to break, a pencil, or a rubber strip with the demenions of a pencil. The rubber flexes so it is harder to break. The pencil snaps. This does the same thing as the rubber but less exagerated.

I just came back from riding that ride! it's awesome, and GraceGuunz... stupid name, =] its in Mall of America. OMG I WENT TO RUEHL NO.925 THERE IT WAS SO COOL. I spent like, 400 dolars

[GraceGunz]

wher is that

[AgentJTJ]

is it me or is the loop wobbling?

[YdOuUmRb]

oh, it's moving, just adds more fun to the ride :D

[LegoThemeparkCrazy]

@AgentJTJ Most coasters do that.

[jbrollercoasters]

WEEEE!!!! This ride is SO much fun! That drop is AMAZING!

[The3Losers]

ugh when I went it wasn't done yet :\

[SunnyBunny42694]

i love that ride :P

i was freaked out at first but it wasnt as scary as i thought it was haha

[shonnytime]

Saying that "all loops shake" doesn't cut it. I'm glad that an additional support has been added. (Thanks, cooperalex, for that info.) Does anyone know of a video taken after the new support was put in?

[cooperalex]

I just got home from visiting the mall, and they have installed a new brace in the last week which adds support to the side opposite the drop. It still shakes a little, but not like it was. I can't believe it is $6 to ride unless you buy a daily or yearly pass. I have never seen so many people in the park, but the question is will the crowds last?

[isthmusboi19]

hey this is normal it just really shows when you have it indoors unlike having outside

[banana7smoothie]

i call it,the fist o pain,like in the one were sponge bob and patrick ride a roller coaster

[cheesemanperson]

Someone should be responsible for that shaking loop, it should have some better supports that won't make the loop shake.

[c100692]

All loops shake! This one is just easier to see because it's indoors with more surroundings!

[cheesemanperson]

Whatever...

[RadioactiveBlood08]

Nope, this loop shakes alot more than any other coaster loop I have ever seen. Saying all loops shake is just plain wrong. No B&M loops shake at all.

[omfg567]

Rides are designed to flex with the forces look at the hd b roll of diamond back and it shakes soo bad.

[NitroGadvRules]

I am not to sure that it should flex as much as it does in that video. Almost every B&M hyper before Diamandback and maybe Behemoth had twice as many poles on the way down the drop.

[dorplein62]

all loopings are flexing like this , but becouse most coasters are outside , you cannot see the flexing ( couse of moving trees ) in a steady hall , you can see it clearly

[CoasterKid2007]

This actually happens on all coasters. Here, you just have a closer reference point and can see it better

[CharliesName]

@CoasterKid2007 But not that much? it wobbels like crazy!

[naznorm93]

the tracks r movin'!!!

[jbrollercoasters]

Spongebob Shimmy... I actually like that saying! That's what I'm gonna call it from now on!
