THIS IS MY FAVORITE RIDE because when me and my friend got on we. Didn't know you had to stand up but we got use to it :D try this ride people!

I love this ride, but it hurts my head, because it bobbles when I go down xc

@TrackMania753 a stand up coaster is way different from a sit down coaster one you're standing up and two its really painful down there

[TrackMania753]

Ive never been on a stand-up is it really that different from a sit-down? I remember hearing someone say there's a little peg-like thing to hold you in the restraints....

[PrettyLittleLiar9100]

it feels like this ride got shorter since the last time i went on it

You know you're watching a video about a Californian roller coaster when you find more than 3 comments with the word "hella" in them.
