Giant canyon swing always gets me. Obvi it has the positives and floater like any s&s swing, but the acrophobia of feeling like youre about to be hurled off a cliff, combined with the amazing scenery makes it such a top notch installation for me.

    A relaxing ride on a wave swinger is always fun. I don’t suppose WindSeeker or Star Flyer models count as flat rides?

      A flat ride is generally anything that isn’t a coaster or dark ride… The name comes from fair rides that pack “flat” on trailers but it’s used for nearly everything now.

      So yea, most people would consider the star flyers and windseekers flats… I actually think there are fair versions of the starflyers as well but don’t quote me on that 😂

        Ah I see, I figured it had to do with height partially as well. Then I’d probably pick either of them over the wave swinger. I love looking over the surrounding area from up high while also getting a nice breeze.
