I remember Mantis for being one of the few coasters I was truly scared to go on. Its very loud and impressive looking, and the idea of standing is kind of feaky. The ride itself, at least in my opinion, isnt as bad as some people say. The turn before the drop adds a great thrill, and I thought the dive loop was really cool. In the times Ive ridden I dont remember any significant roughness, or any "leg pain." Im only giving it an 8 though because it could use more inversions, and I just dont like the stand up concept much. The bicycle seat is uncomfortable and I really dont feel like standing on a ride after standing in line.
