Nitro is an excellent ride. You start off going down a small dip before you go into the lift hill. To intimidate you, several signs are put up comparing you with the heights of famous landmarks. When you crest the hill, you wait for the highly anticipated drop, but it doesnt come as soon as you think. You just keep turning further and further over the edge for what seems like an eternity. Finally, you get hurled towards the ground. Once you realize whats going on, your already climbing the second hill at around 80 mph. It creates the illusion like your going up vertically. You then drop several more times before you reach a helix with strong g-forces that stick you to the back of your seat. After a brake run and several bunny hops, you arrive back at the station. Overall, this ride was amazing, and Im very happy I chose this as my first hypercoaster. It was just missing one thing: airtime. Even the back didnt have very much, but still, it was an awesome ride. Ride in the front for the wonderful view, and the back if you want some airtime.
