Jasper Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Well the weather was on the hot side but the crowds were manageable. Got to the park at about 11 15 and rode everything all day until we left a 9. The real part of my trip report is one of my favorite rides now at Kings Island even though it is pay per ride. Me an my girlfriend and my other friend all decided to get on X-Treme Skyflyer because it has looked so much fun for ever. I got on it scared to death but when they started to crank us back up i realized this isnt so bad and i just relaxed. My friend pulled the ripcord and off we went. When they first pull that ripcord it is a once in a lifetime experience. This ride was intense but not so intense that you cant stand it. I would easily pay 20 bucks to ride this again. Can anyone tell me what they like better Slingshot or X-Treme Skyflyer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Wow! I adore the Skycoaster aka X-Treme Skyflier. As for Slingshot, if they paid me to ride it again, I would. Otherwise, FOR ME, it's nearly as exciting as watching people ride Reptar. Almost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DropZone99 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Although i haven't ridden EXtreme Skyflyer or Slingshot at Kings Island, ive ridden SFOG's and ive ridden the world's tallest Slingshot in Kissimee, Florida. I prefer the Skycoasters over Slingshots. And i guess you had a good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gburn07 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I personally love slingshot more, probably because I have been on so many variations of the skycoaster that it is nothing new for me anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
