Is Orbit gone or still boxed up?

Neither!! Just in case you haven't been reading the other topics, the Santa Clara Orbit re-opened this year. I'm really glad because it's an awesome ride. I don't know if it's just me, but it seems like it's running on a shorter program this season. But I could be wrong because I haven't been on it in 1 year.

Yeah I think your right, Its seems shorter and as though it doesn't move as close to vertical as it used to. (although it never was vertical) I don't know why but even with this program I felt I was developing a headache afterwards, but I used to ride it at least 3 times a visit without a problem...

Hopefully it will be better next visit
The rides are GREAT, the shows are GREAT, the fun is GREAT, at Marriott's Great America! REMEMBER Marriott's GREAT AMERICA, REMEMBER Marriott's GREAT AMERICA!
