Titan at SFoT

[evilwhiterice]

Has anyone rode the Titan at SFoT and the restraint wasn't tight enough...I rode Titan the other day...three times to be exact, and practically fell out of my seat on the 90-degree drop after the brake run. The second time, I tried to get them tight, but the ride operator already locked the bars, and the ride people didn't find a problem. Same problem. The third time, I stapled myself in and killed my hips on airtime...but what is up with the Giovanola restraints? I absolutely hate them...is it the same way on Goliath at SFMM or is it just at Titan since the ride operators at SFoT suck and the rides are terribly upkept?

Well, when i rode Goliath in MM back in 2003, i didn't have any problem with the restraint, it was pretty comfortable, and i'm a pretty skinny guy. i do remember that the airtime and G forces were pretty intense on that ride. I also thought that the first and second drop was very boring, am i the only one that thinks that way?

Well, I thought Titan at SFoT was awesome, but...

the 90-degree drop after the brake run.

90 Degrees Eh? What Titan have you been riding? :bulb:

Perhaps he means the 90 degree banked helix...:o

Isn't it like close to 90 degrees? This pic below is where I'm talking about!

I'd say that's no more than a 70 degree bank.

[evilwhiterice]

I don't know the specifics...whatever...

^ Yeah, Thats no where near 90.


Sheikra, thats 90.

[Hemmy]

i rode it once and i was fine, other than the wind forcing my eyelids 80% closed

[hotroddude]

yeah im not a big fan of the Giovanola rides, twice on goliath my restraint poped up, not a great experiance... though it was just like a click or two...still not something you want to happen.

Sheikra, thats 90.
Again, he means the bank, not the drop.
