Sidewinder (Off-ride HD) Elitch Gardens

[MyPOWDERKEG]

I have to correct something on this...This coaster opened in 1980 at magic springs not 1978 like it stated above...and i hold the record on it at magic springs.

You would think the middle would be lame. Its the scariest seat you don't know when you'll drop!

[onlylikenerd]

i rode this seven times at night before elitches closed :D the drop is worse then it looks... just sayin. i went on it and i flew off the chair because its so bad :DDD

I rode this type of ride at Kings Island back in 1981. What's especially scary is that if you're in the front car, it becomes the last car to go down the drop on the return trip, so it drops you backwards with no warning at a point when the train has the most momentum.

Brief ride, and you need to be in shape to walk up the stairs to the loading platform, but it's worth it.

That Ride is Retarded..

I just went on this yesterday and sat in the back. HOLY CRAP. Even tho I live in Denver and I go to Elitches alll the time, this ride still freaks me out. You literally come out of your seat and you cant breath when you go down. Yet, I still love the ride.

[SpyChiick]

I went on it for the first time 5 days ago and DAMN was it SCARY!

[HillaryLouise1996]
