Sorry when I clicked on it nothing was coming up so I assumed it was the same pic. Can you post the pic on here? I don't see it.

Yeah. Let me know if you still can't see it:

Poor water dummies. They even had to put padding between some of them and the restraints. lol
Do you think they will be handing out padding before we all get on the ride?

I'm sure the padding was the simulate ACE'ers... lol!

So I have never rode it but just saw a show on HDTheater about Furius Baco. Well it has what appears to be the exact same restraint. In this picture I can't help but wonder how the kid in the back right seats ear is going to feel after that turn that is ahead...

Wasn't sure if I could just post the picture so I just did the link.

Anybody rode Furius Baco?
#38898
Yes.

The ride had potential but was pretty brutal. I think I attribute that more to instability of the trains rather than the OSTR's. It was similar to the problems X at Magic Mountain had where the end seats shook violently, but the inside seats weren't too bad. The same was true for Baco.

You know, looking at those water dummies...seeing how they had to put padding around along with um some extra tie down strapps...ummI wonder how "safe this going to be"
#39066
They prolly had to unload all those dummies in that mud hole of a construction site. That's prolly why the train looks like poop. I'm sure it'll be washed and waxed come next Thursday.

And you know how I am with my ACE comments! I'm just keeping it real (and no, that wasn't directed at you goober)! ;-)
