In reply to DoD3Brian. It does sound interesting. Perhaps I may ride it the next time I see it, unless if I have to find someone to ride it with me. Although I'd rather have the forces of a ride to flip me uncontrollably, like the Zipper. No ride can top that :-D

In reply to Robert Mata: "The -Zipper- Ridin' Karate Kid. Rock-o-Plane is interesting in that the riders get to dictate their own ride. There's a brake lever in the pods so if a rider wants to go upside down, they pull the lever and the pod stays in that position until they let go. It's pretty fun!

Aww they didn’t bring their Zipper ride there this year.. I guess the Rock O Plane there was kind of the substitute for the Zipper as I can see the Rock O Plane cars get flipped around too
