Blackhole6670 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 How much fun is the Delirium? How comfortable and tight are the restraints? How much will my body move in the restraints while the ride is in motion? Do all the seats give the same ride experience? Would you want to ride this ride again and again? How long are the lines for this ride? Can you tell your on ride experiences? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTheater Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 How much fun is the Delirium? Depends on what you enjoy. How comfortable and tight are the restraints? The restraints can be a little heavy sometimes, putting pressure on the abdomen and may discomfort a male's reproductive parts How much will my body move in the restraints while the ride is in motion? Not much in my experience Do all the seats give the same ride experience? Yes Would you want to ride this ride again and again? Me personally no, but I know people who do. How long are the lines for this ride? How long is any line at any moment? No one knows what it will be like at the time of your visit. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDMC01 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I like Delirium; it's a fun ride. I'd like to counteract one of PhantomTheater's statements slightly: I don't think every seat gives the same experience. Yes, every seat gives a similar experience, but Seat 50 is really weird as it produces smaller rotations that cause the rider to stare at the ground most of the time. Other than this, I second PhantomTheater's statements! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill_Biscuit Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 The ride gives you a sustained abdominal drop thrill through each pendular transition, similar to what you might feel when riding in a car on a hilly back road while not looking out any windows; and there's about 1.5 - 3 seconds of weightlessness at each swing reversal. The restraint is snug, however it feels like the ride 'catches' you (comfortably) and throws you back into the other direction, with the added fun of being on a rotating wheel that constantly changes the angle of your "flight." There are "leg chopper" visual effects in the form of the sign, and blue spires with red lights toward the Festhaus side of the attraction (not to worry, unless you happen to have shins that are 9 feet long) . The ride is known for each seat stopping at the exact same position from which the ride starts, so each seat has its own unique "path" through the ride experience. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 And MaXair at Cedar Point is more so in virtually every aspect. Meanwhile, the once SFGAd Frisbee now at SFGAm as Revolution, though much smaller, is far from a lesser ride. Unless you don't like spinny. Man, is it spinny. Delirium is lethargic by comparison, though perhaps a bit more swingy. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsislandfan1972 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 If you want to cool off for a little while, instead of getting wet at the park, go on Delirium. The reason why I say this is because when you are riding the ride you can feel the air intensly, and it will cool you off even on the hottest days. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Are you saying it gives you max air? 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upstop Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Unfortunately the cycle is too short....The ride on Max Air is significantly longer. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue171717 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Delirium is my favorite ride at KI! I think it feels like you are on a giant tire swing. The seats are definately different in regards to experience. I prefer ones where you are facing up at the top of the upswing rather than down, but I can never remember from trip to trip which seat numbers do what. Most of the time unless they are really slow, you don't get to pick your seat anyway so it doesn't matter. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 As for the wait times, Delirium seats 50 people per cycle. As such, the line moves quite a few people per cycle (almost a full row of switchbacks). I would estimate about 45 minutes to one hour of waiting when the queue is absolutely filled to capacity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoeter Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 The only thing I like about Delirium (and Drop Tower for that matter) is the burst of air you get as they operate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIBeast Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I love Delirium. I thought it was the same as maXair, except the aforementioned longer ride cycle on the one at Cedar Point. I am 5'11", 197 lbs and have no discomfort in riding Delirium. I've been on Delirium a few times and the ride experience was the same in different seats. The other plus for maXair is the line for it is far shorter than Delirium, or at least it was last time I went to Cedar Point. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marth555 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Personally I find it to be a swinging good time 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragsterguy21 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Are you saying it gives you max air?Did the Terp not capitalize a trademark made by Cedar Fair!????!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Nope. Puns that are similar are not using the mark itself. I truly meant max air. Not maXair. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCandyManCan Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Forget either Huss Frisbee, go north and ride the Screamin' Swing 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsus Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 ^^ Indeed. Delirium cannot give you maXair because both are inanimate objects and maXair isn't Delirium's to give you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Better yet, Revolution at Six Flags Great America...to the northwest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCandyManCan Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I'll pass. I'm not sure why the seats being on the inside vs outside cause issues, but that ride makes me quite queasy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Perhaps that it spins....very, very rapidly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCandyManCan Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Perhaps, but I felt like it spun the same speed as other frisbees I've been on, so far Revolution is the only one that has repeatedly made me not able to ride something for a few minutes afterwards.
