(that you have been on) Well I've only ridden Millenium, and it's been a while, so I'm not sure which one I'd rank higher. Maybe Millenium because the view is better. I also only got a front row ride on Orion, and I heard the back was more intense (like it always is) but the front gives you a great view of the drop. KI nailed it though, and you should ride it this season! 8 Link to post Share on other sites

That is the ravine, so it likely is moist, so weeds will grow in there pretty quickly. It would be rather pointless to hydroseed at this point in the growing season, they might wait until fall. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

That looks like Daimonbdack but bigger my favorite part was going down that big hill and the have way thru when it alomst stops and you like fall. Then I like standing on the ground and listen to Daimonbdack strike!!!!! But I think Orion will be kewl too 3 Link to post Share on other sites
