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
- It will be SBNO *Applies to launch coasters only*
