A classic Schwarzkopf Enterprise that opened in 1976. Formerly located in Orleans Place and called the Orleans Orbit. Was moved to Hometown Square in the early 1980s.

I really like the light package they have added just in the last year. It really looks great at night. The ride itself is a fun little contrapation. It goes upside down, but it doesn't feel like it does.

8/10

I love this ride, espically at FF because of the huge strobe light. 2008 was the first time I ever rode this ride. the loud crash at the end always freaks me ou even though I know it is coming :). I agree the new lights are really cool. I also like the marriotts logo in the middle. 7/10

The ride is so simple but yet so fun. I love how people are always freaked out by the lack of seatbelts. My buddy rode it and he was kinda a bit too tall for it but he still enjoyed it. Theres nothing like 6 foot 8 inches of human crammed into that thing. This is another one of my must hits at the park.
