March 27, 200422 yr Hi i am new to the site and I have only been to pki once and never rode TR:TR what was it like Tomb Raider: The Ride is an dark flat ride which is more or less an indoor Huss Top Spin. It is extremely well themed and is of course based off of the Tomb Raider movie. Next time you visit the park, I'd recommend checking it out if you're not afraid to be flipped around a few times. Regards, Ryan
June 13, 200422 yr Excuse me being a complete n00b here, but TR:TR is Tomb Raider: The Ride, correct?
June 23, 200422 yr Yep, it is. I sincerely hope they lengthen the program and up the intensity. Like some have said before, it was all hyped up to be the greatest indoor themed ride experience out there. Well, it has great theming, but slightly lacks in the intensity department. I was wondering...are there other Huss Giant Top Spins out there? If so, did they all have the same problems as TR?
June 23, 200422 yr they have problems but they don't have to deal with the effects TR:TR has to deal with. Honestly i don't see a V2 coming on this ride for a while.
July 1, 200422 yr Although TR would be a little better with a new ride program, it's still a great ride with me. Totally unique: How many other parks are there with an enclosed, highly themed, giant Top Spin? none. TR;TR is the only giant top spin in the world.

July 1, 200422 yr My sister is totally scared of that ride! she was closing her eyes on it and it stoped. She opened her eyes, and she was upside down. She says they completely turn the ride OFF while you're upside down. She and my other sister were screaming at Ronnie and Chris. They lied and said it just shakes you back an forth. They lied apparently, but... I'm definitely going on it this year!

They lied apparently, but... I'm definitely going on it this year! Unless it was a breakdown, the ride never 'turns off' during a ride cycle. It's programmed to hold it's position at a certain point for a certain amount of time, as programmed in the ride control.

July 2, 200422 yr yea there is a part where it does a back flip really slowly. that's probably what she's refering to.
July 2, 200422 yr It uses giant railroad brakes, as seen in the tour. I know, it uses those to hold the 35 ton gondola in various places.
July 2, 200422 yr Actually, what I posted had to do with the post above mine. Someone asked if TR:TR meant Tomb Raider the Ride and I answered yes.
July 9, 200422 yr The last time I rode it everything seemed to be working fine. Alought I 'm not a Tomb Raider expert I didnt notice anything wrong.
