Cedar point fan, I am ready to be screwed: Mantis is... well to be honest, it met my expectations. I was expecting a run-of-the-mill coaster (inversions galore; decent-heightened first drop), except a standee. Alright call me a spazz, but I was actually intimidated by this coaster. I have never stood up on a ride but to my surprise, it felt... dare I say... the exact same? Except worse. Standees are not my thing on several reasons: the adjustment of your seat; the feeling in your legs; and your head is playing ping-pong with the OTS restraints. I love its logo and I like the color choice, but unfortunately, that is where the praise ends. Mantis, I felt stung!
