Play by Play- Lakeside Cyclone

• There is a separate loading and unloading platform on this ride, so you enter the unloading platform (you can't wait for the seat you want). You get on, buckle your seat belt (your only restraint), and off you go into the tunnel
• The tunnel is completely dark and is the shape of a backwards S. Everyone yells and screams, it's really fun, you start up the lift in a minute and climb 85 ft.
• Down the first hill (fun!!!), and into the structure in a left hand 180 deg. curve, then you pop up a hill and curve another 180 degrees.
• You go down a nice little drop, and go around a fan curve, then up around another fan curve.
• Now you go and do a small hill, a hill with a left hand curve in it, and another hill, then up another hill and do a 180 degree right hand curve over water (it feels like you're going to get pulled in!)
• You go through a series of 3 hills (great airtime! My shirt almost came off!)
• You cuve right and go down a nice little dip along some bushes, then you hit the final brakes.
• You go around one final right hand turn into the station.
