Just don't care. Never been on a Topspin either, even though I've been to like 14 parks that have them.

^Eh, SFGAm's top spin is ok. The Schwartzkopf monster II is my favorite flat there.

They are calling it a Mega Disc'O but I'm missing the hill in between on the video. Another missed chance, since with the Hill in between is a lot more fun than without. On full speed it gives a nice floater. [:)]

Wow, there are a couple cool/good top spins out there that have some good programs running. Same goes for some other flat rides.

I think Top Spins are a lot of fun...they're one of the few flat rides I really enjoy. The motion is really dynamic when the spin isn't controlled. I think it's worth at least one ride.

I liked GAm's top spin when I was there...it was a bit different from the others in its program. The others I've been on usually just have one or two unlocked inversions at a time, but despite being really short, that one had like 3 or 4 right in a row, which was enough to make the sky seem to spin vertically from being dizzy. Really cool and a completely different sensation from laterally spinning rides.

Fun fact, I remember GAdv's inverting around 20 times each run back when I rode in '99 I believe...now that was awesome haha. It was like 10 or 11 locked backflips, then a great mix so you never knew what was coming next, followed by the standard slow forward descent and possible inversion at the end. Too bad it's like, 1/4 as long now.

Well it's better than the rotor... They don't run that fast enough and you slowly slide down the walls.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

I love lake compounce for their awesome flats. They really need a good floorless top spin like at KD. I remember how insane that one was with the fire effects and the inverted loop and it had a great program with lots of flips. Plus i like the harnesses on those, even though they jam into certain places a a bit. you would know what i mean if you have ridden Max-air at Cedar point. they have the same restraints.
