Please answer this question for me

Jesz, you should ride Millie front seat ;)

I am yet to see someone get off of that without tear streaks going back from the eyes. It looks really cool, actually, they go straight back.

not a big fan of the ejector seat. I rode it once and my thighs were toast.

I will try 6-1 and 6-2 this weekend. Never been a fan of that part of any coaster train, but I will try it and report back.

See you at CM this weekend!

BTW this is a poor name choice for this thread.

No1 mentions Gemini? It has amazing airtime. Back seat has a very intense first drop, more intense than the drop on Magnum and Mean Streak. Also, the back sit flings you over the camleback hills and the hill that goes under the structure after the 2nd turn(headchopper) has INSANE air. Also sit in the middle.

i remember on maXair seats 50 and 1 were better than seats 30 or 42 for example.

Hmm... I've never thought of Gemini as an Airtime Machine... but maybe I've never gotten the right seat... As smooth as it is, ive had some painful rides on that ride when my back smacks against the seatback... Normally when im in the back of a car...

I learned about that back car during my last trip. Gemini is a great ride unless you're sitting back there. That thump on the bottom of the first drop was far from enjoyable.

I like Gemini's last row.

Me ride 6-1....me likee likee.

6-2 throws harder. It is more resembles the ejector.

6-1 has outstanding air.

I'm going to be in Cedar Point in 9 days as we speak, and I'd really like to know what are the "airtime" or "floater" seats on each coaster? I know coasters like Diasastor Transport doesn't have one, but I know Magnum, Millennium Force--I believe the seat is 5-1--but not sure, etc. does. Thank you!

Do not forget to go on Bluestreak it has the best airtime, front or back.

I rode on magnum this past wednesday and I rode 1-3 after I read this post and I was not very impressed. Maybe I was expecting too much but i was kind of let down, but who knows? I'm not saying it's not a great seat to ride, it just didn't do the trick for me. The back seat on any coaster has always been a great ride for me as well as the front. The back seat especially on Gemini is a great ride, a lot better than I had expected so if you can try the back seat I would recommend it.


Arms down, head back, and hold on.....

Someone mentioned the back of Gemini for the fling over the top, i have always like the back of MF for the same reasons.

Magnum seat 1-2 is the absolute best for air. Not quite as intense as 1-3 (to save the thighs). Plus the line isn't that long in the station because of the lousy design. The back has good air as well, but it's coming out of the hill. So the floater air on hill three isn't quite as impressive from the back. IMO.
