in that dark room you move backwards during the projections of the mantas on the wall. so the launch of the ride is kinda like the toy cars you roll back and release and then they zoom fast

The "second waiting zone" is a buildup to the launch. and also the reason why you need to wait so long is because of maintenance and ride operators making sure the launch sequence is good to go and waiting for the other train to get to a certain point on the ride in order to launch. Boarding and checking the restrains also increase the wait time. All of these steps are done to ensure your safety.

@@KyijahYukoi actually 3:37, before that it just goes to the tunnel thing and you wait again for like 40 sec

i think this feels longer than it truly is bc if you're waiting on a coaster typically you're also waiting for everyone else to get their stuff settles, get seated, and for buckle and safety checks, but while you're actually sitting on the coaster you're anticipating the ride itself and are actually in the moment vs watching everything go down

For those of you wondering why it takes so long for the ride to start, it because of maintenance and the ride operators ensuring the riders safety. When boarding the people choose their seats and pull the lap bars down. This process takes time along with ride operators making sure the lap bars are secured. Then ride operators contact ride maintenance to make sure that the launch is ready and if the previous train has made it to a certain point on the track. Waiting for the other train on the track is important to allow faster departure times. Once all criteria is met the ride operators then allow the train into the launch and the cycle repeats. Problems may occur during boarding such as a child under the height limit. Which may cause a delay and also varying the wait time. I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

@jeremybowles9330

Жыл бұрын

Well it doesn't take that long. Usually this kind of wait happens when someone does not fit in the seat. They will usually try for a while to get the first latch but it ends up not happening so they have to let the person off and re open the gates and try again.

I’m a passholder for Sea world Orlando and the manta ride here is much different. It goes in loops there are times when you were upside down and it also feels like you are flying. I also don’t recall the wait times on that one being as long as the manta ride from this video. Usually once you’re seated it takes them no more than a minute or a minute and a half to get the ride started.

I just went on this for the first time yesterday at the Orlando SeaWorld and it was amazing. I hopped right back in line and did it again in the front row and loved every minute of it!
