Spotting an S&S

An S&S attraction is easily recognized by several characteristics:

- Very short, stubby (and probably unsafe) OTSRs

- The ride must pass through vertical at least once

- Tend to go more skywards than sprawl accross the ground (They call it "compact". We call it "silly")

- It must use air power at some point

- Bits have a tendency to fall off
