thedevariouseffect Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Lol...you say that now...I have 2/1LT's that go from 4-5G pull back on the stick and hit 10G and G-LOC, and they're trained for that crap haha. Being a civillian and not having to work with a g suit and valsalva manuver all the time you're ganna black out Also, this isn't "blacking out" per say...but decompression chambers are hilarious when you see what happens when the body starts loosing oxygen in the bloodstream with no G load...fuuuuny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP&LERR Fan Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Maybe you should get a G suit, pushes blood back to your brain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungStud Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Again if your blacking out on a coaster made for the general public you need to see a dr IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDMC01 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I too have been graying out on Vortex lately (mostly from the 2nd loop to the hill near the MCBR). Surprisingly, I rode Vortex in 3-1 on KIC Day (I usually ride in the very back) and I was fine; even after graying out earlier in the day!

IndyGuy4KI Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I grayed out on Vortex on Sunday. Right at the start of the second loop till about half way through about 3 seconds. I usually do not grey out, except once in a while right there on Vortex, but not that much. It was quite warm out and was getting sun burned at that point, so I am not sure if that was a contributing factor, or it could be I was is a bad position? On my ride on Vortex Sunday I did not grey out at all, but on the lift I took several big breaths of air to oxygenate my blood really good before getting to the second loop. That worked perfect. No greying at all, maybe the time before I was breathing really shallow and did not realize it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
