Hi Ryan,

I just checked it out - I'm amazed that youtube's profanity filter didn't kick in when I typed 'The Rattl~r Bend' into the search Smile

Wow - I never realised that it actually sways from side to side like that - and manages to stay in one piece!

Yes, easily the best woodie in Texas! Closely followed by Judge Roy Scream.
I'll take us back there one day - and I'll make sure we spend some time in Schlitterbahn too (http://www.schlitterbahn.com/nb/)

You are just catering to Ryan.

I just watched the POV of Rattler too, looks rough.

Is the sway noticeable when you are on the ride?

I think Pete and I are going to have to get seperate avatars if he keeps this up. I don't want to get into a mud wrestling match over rapids rides, of which I couldn't care less about! Laughing

Now that Koaster Krazy is over let the truth be known...................

Mean Streak is a bigger BOS than the Rattl3r !!
Wouldn't you agree Mr. Hackett?

I think I will set up a poll.

It's a shame Maverick was closed - it would have been great to have tried it after all the anticipation before the event. Still, CP still rocks, rain or shine!
