... I was among the first to ride Ricochet on its media day, and many times following that in its first weekends of operation. The only times the top trims (minus the last trim before the downward curve which still hits a little bit) hit the car are when the cars are stacking up REALLY badly below, ...
^ Just a note... Ricochet never had any more, or any less, trims turned on than it does at the present date. Uh. No. In the early days of the ride they used to trim you to death. I've got the bruses to prove it! I'm serious though. It used to be ...
The trims at the top have never hit the trains unless the ride was e-stopped. Sometime last season I rode it a few times and we hit every trim on the top part where it goes back and forth. I think it was towards the beginning ...
... a coaster that they've needed and has the "x factor" that Simon Cowell mentions on American Idol, something that everybody will like about it. The trim coming out of the helix was barely on and didn't affect the ride. We kept bouncing back between the 3rd and 8th rows for our rides. There wasn't ...
dont think thats a trim...
That trim brake messes up the entire chi of that picture... :angry:
... know the rides layout and could see very little of it through the forest of trees. The ride simply BLEW ME AWAY!! There was only one very slight trim brake and that was on the block brake. It barely grabbed though. I was surprised at the near complete stop on the block when I returned 2 years ...
Have you ever had a ride on Montu with the trims off? If you have then you would know why it came in 8th. Before you even as the best time to get a no trim ride is when there is one train operation. So the best months for that to happend is mid ...
... terrain, the tunnels, the length, the out of control feeling, and the final double helix. I'll admit, it is runny pretty rough at times and the trim breaks cake away from the ride, but i still enjoy it. I dont rank it high because i think it's "kool" or what everyone else likes, i just happen ...
... low on my list. In short, the Beast has been tamed. It is not the monster that it was in the late 70's into the 80's. Frankly, there are too many trim brakes. I mean just look at the first drop. The entire length is one long skid brake. Then the long tunneled straightaway that follows is another ...
... that would be! Did you hear me Bob WHITE? :) That would be worth not getting anything new!!! Paint her back to White, with the Red and Blue trim, and please, please fix the potholes on the bottom of the hills!!! TinkerDog!
^I'll echo that Jonathan. There is only one trim on the top layer which is just before the sweeping turn over the station. It's been pretty consistant as far as how hard it trims you each time I have ridden it this year. Last year was a different ...
... fan. It was always rough, bumpy, jackhammery, shuffly & too brakey...when I rode it. The pacing is just terrible, ruined by the over usage of trim brakes on every drop and turn. Honestly, the only positive thing about this coaster is the length. I just can't understand why this coaster ...
Also of note: The trimless top of Ricochet was NOT a fluke for C3! Ricochet was running as it always does... Not true. I haven't ridden it much this year, but the previous years the top section was: turn, brake, turn, brake, turn, ...
