I'm still recovering from a ride with Beth, James & Skunky. Most instense Teacup Ride ive ever had. Probably the most intense ride I had that day.

I think people who havn't experienced Storm in a Teacup underestimate the ride quite a lot as "another teacup ride". But Storm is something different :blink:.

Well not really. I've had some astounding rides on Storm, but there is only about two cups that are actually decent, the rest are stiff as anything and barely move. No, if you want to guarantee a decent ride, Maurauders Mayhem at Alton is the better ride with effects and a soundtrack and all the cups spin a hell of a lot.As for Vortex, it's a decent ride and I'll never understand the hate that people have for it these days.

Does anyone remember the old Vortex announcements, you know the one where the voice had a personality."Vortex is a very fast ride so please remain seated, hold on tight at all times.... prepare for a scare"A piece of my teenagehood died when they removed her awesomeness. :angry:

The highest point for the highest swinging set of seats is 64.3 feet. It does go over this from time to time however, and can even be blown over by the wind. This causes an emergency stop, resulting in the ride's power cutting out and it taking about 5 minutes to stop.

LEAVE MY EX BABY ALONE!! :DI've had a fast teacup :P but I still prefer Vortex...I mean there is only so long you can experience turbo teacups before getting bored and having a painful neck from the force! I mean at first it is like "Whoaa!" and all forceful but I always get used to it quickly and then get bored :DIf you get top seat on Vortex, you get airtime and if it's my first ride it makes my stomach go over :PIt's also the most reliable ride in the park (not an official stat or anything but it's obvious). It behaves itself.
