Don't vote, just do it - democracy is for sissys

Seriously though, I'm sure there are solutions out there on the internets that allow you to sell a product and have it made when it's ordered (CafePress for one) - perhaps do that and see what volume of orders there are. Then in 2010 somebody could get them printed locally and send them around the country.

Hmmm... I thought that Tammy and Phillip sorted all those issues out with Insanity? Maybe not I guess... It sounds like it could be SurfRider at Wet 'n' Wild's long lost brother...

Insanity was quite popular when I saw it at night (though the lights had tripped off) it had a continious line on it for the hours I saw it operate. No Limit was immediately behind it, and being a shorter ride in height, was not drawing in as many punters.

Yeh the setup of both No Limit and Insanity were really close, watching some vids on youtube, the layout was weird with Insanity throown in the middle of everything and so close to No Limit. That is a shame its having problems again

Speed
First time riding this.The first rotation gave me some butterflies in the gut,but once it got going I found it to be a very smooth,enjoyable experience.Fun..yes,thrilling..nah not really.Looks great at night.

Couldn't decide between these two vids,so I just uploaded both.

Space Roller Offride 1:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-7TfiYkRFI
Space Roller Offride 2:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qw3PysWgz-g

Power Surge
Visually,very impressive..but spins way too slow to get the adrenaline pumping.

No Limit

I actually convinced the attendant to let me take my camera on to shoot an onride video,but as the restraints lifted they knocked the batteries out and wiped the vid from my memory card..I had stopped recording at this point,but i guess the vid was being processed..not sure.Would've been a good vid too..someones shoe went flying!.

Magic Circus

Insanity
Thankfully I was there on Saturday,so Insanity operated until closing with no problems.Put up against Speed this fails to impress visually..very bland.But such concerns are wiped form your mind once you're strapped in and flying through the air at alarming speeds!.
