Catapult is a very good ride when it's actually open, which is a rare occurrence. The feeling of being flung at the ground is incredible and I love the hang-time going through the inversions. However two things keep this from being a 10 in my book: the annoying restraints and wicked short cycle.

OUCH, THE RESTRAINTS HURT.

The ride is pretty funny, I couldn't stop laughing but the restraints left me giant bruises, they were incredibly painful...
