About Giant Drop

Several vehicles of 4 seats ascend a hydraulic 200-foot track, then let gravity take charge of the descent. hehe

Giant Drop is just what it sounds like: a giant drop. Riders are seated in rows of five that circle a giant pole. The riders are slowly brought upward in the most suspenseful part of the ride. Once the riders reach the top they are able to see the entire park, then suddenly the riders are dropped at high speeds to the ground. The ride is really a lot of fun and if you have a "Flash Pass" I recommend it; otherwise I would stick to coasters if there is a long line. - Mike Crimson

This drop is a doosey. One of the best drop experiences I have had, even if it is short. - Mark Mahoney
