Everybody cheered and called for a speech but I was totally speechless. And all I could think was here they've done this incredibly nice thing and look at me, I'm dressed like a clown. It was a wonderful moment for me. I hope I'm not coming off as bragging because I certainly don't mean to. Besides, I really think the award says more about those who participated in giving it to me than it does my little video.

As we crested the lift hill and approached the first drop Dave said "Okay, prepare yourself!" I thought he was just being you know, whatever, and anyway I wasn't really paying all that much attention anyway because I was talking to him about someth WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAHH MY GOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!
I'm telling you, that coaster dropped and we were AIRBORNE for what seemed like eternity!!!! There are only four coasters that have truly shocked me with such a powerful launching from their backseat: Shivering Timbers, Cyclops, GA Cyclone and now the Skyliner. I mean it, I was *shocked!!* I think I screamed, seriously, not out of joy but of sheer surprise, for the longest time! I don't think I'm exaggerating either because Dave started laughing and he *kept on* laughing at me for longest time after the ride had ended. In fact the two images I'll take with me from Ridefest are Blue the coaster dog jumping up and down as riders left and returned to the station, and Dave Sandborg giggling and laughing his head off. Prepare yourself!!! |
