It’s been eight hours since I left Six Flags, and I still can’t get over it. I feel sick in the car, and overall queasy š I rode more than a dozen roller coasters, some of which are unforgettable. About some of them:
For comparison: on the Superman ride, the coaster accelerates to 160 km/h (4.5G) in 7 seconds, climbs to a height of 120 meters, then dives down at speed (on a similar attraction at VDNKh – 40 meters). Here’s a link to the video http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman:_Escape_from_Krypton

In “Goliath”, the overloads reach 5G, dropping at 135 km/h from a height of 70m, then climbing up again, descending again, all the while the cart spins and mountains and clouds flash by. Awesome! Check out the video below)

Apocalypse – it’s wooden. But I liked it the most. Although it’s not the fastest (about 80km/h), the sense of speed feels much greater than on the other coasters. Because of the noise and proximity to the frame, everything flashes before your eyes much more frequently

In “Full Throttle”, the largest loop in the world. I still feel like this ride was one too many (maybe it was the 12th in order…). I still feel shaky, and the after-effects are quite unpleasant, but while I was in the park, it was cool! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_Throttle_(roller_coaster)
