Rockin Roller Coaster in MGM Disney World Florida!!?

Question

OK, I want to ride this ride REALLY REALLY REALLY bad! Like I haven't talked to anyone I know thats rode it and hasn't liked it. Ok, I am really eager to ride the actual rollercoaster but the only thing that is stopping me is the take-off part. I know it goes 60 mph but it's the 60 mph in 2.8 seconds thats freakin me out. The only thing I'm afraid of, is I know myself personally and I get my breath taken away really easy and I'm just scared it's gonna take my breath away and I won't be able to breathe through the whole ride (and yes that has happened to me before) so...what is some advice for it not to take my breath away and even if it does what will help it? Thanks!

Answer 1

yea the same thing happened to me at california screamin at disneyland,and it also happens to me on hills. its impossible to make this feeling go away completely, but i just think of it like its supposed to be fun, and it wouldnt be much of a thrill if this didnt happen,would it? the purpose of the launch is to give you this feeling, just enjoy it and have fun, i hate it too sometimes, but it really is fun if ya think about it!

Edit: another good way is scream as loud as u can,not only does it help but it is fun!

Answer 2

It's not that bad, really.  It's like the opposite of going down a slope but the same effect.  It's a fun ride, just make sure your head is well rested on the head rest.  :)

Answer 3

Hi, ive been on the rockin roller coaster as a kid. what i did to make it less scary was i clinched my body in real tight and closed my eyes. i was only like 10. Dont worry the roller coaster takes only a minute. and breathe outa your nose. You will be fine.

Answer 4

Hm This reminds me of when I had a takeoff on California Screamin at California Adventure. I really didn't expect how fast it would really go. But when the countdown began I was like " o s**t o s**t " and when it off it just like pushed me on the back of the seat. What I did was I kinda tightened up my body and sorta clinched myself so I wasn't that loose. It was fun. Don't let the idea of the launch prevent you from riding this awesome ride.
