    I think the "front seat" ticket should be a "guaranteed front seat ride", not completely close off the row. Basically, if no one has front seat tickets, then the row is open to anyone

      Totally agree and in a lot of countries, they wouldn't be able to legally market / sell it as front row if it isn't. I know in the UK it would break the Consumer Rights Act as it's not as advertised.

    My profile pic is on this ride. The best thing about it is unironically the photo package. It was just some dude with a high quality camera taking great shots. I have 12 high quality photos of me zen riding in the second row. I was too cheap for the front row but I couldn't pass up getting them all bc it was too funny.

    Man this sounded like it wouldve been so cool but it sounds kinda underwhelming. Im legitimately surprised to hear Zierers attempt on Wicket is a better vertical launch. As for layouts, I do hope Intamin can do better. They have 2 off the shelf layouts that you can view videos and POV's of on the manufacturers youtube channel and both look miles better. The 1058m version with a huge vertical loop legit looks incredible and the smaller 799m version looks like it features some extremely funky elements. I would love to see one of those at a park at least, thats for sure!

    The seats look just like the ones at Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, Virginia but whenever I ride I noticed that the very back seats feels more intense than the front seats and besides there is too much wind and bugs in my face and eyes when I ride in the front I have to wear sunglasses or goggles

    "This ride is expensive" yeah the front seat is 1/3 more expensive than the lame coaster at Santa Monica peer which costs the same as the ferris wheel. 15 bucks. 80AED for the front seat is 22 USD.
    The regular price if 65AED is 18 bucks. $3 more than Santa monica peer. Just as an example

      @@fsowner Yeah, their power plants are almost exclusively oil and natural gas fired. Still got to cost a fortune to cool that volume. What's crazy is I doubt they actually power their country with THEIR oil. Like, American oil doesn't go to American power plants. It's more economical to sell it to Mexico or overseas and buy oil for the East Coast from Europe and Persian Gulf. I bet they sell it and rebuy it crazy as that sounds. The trade markets are wild.
