New York Times Fashionさんのインスタグラム写真 - (New York Times FashionInstagram)「Fun Spot America Atlanta, a once sleepy amusement park in Georgia, has transformed itself into something of a destination for the nation’s roller coaster enthusiasts with the unveiling of a marquee ride, ArieForce One. It towers above the green landscape, its steel tracks shimmering in the Georgia sun. Its 154-foot lift hill and steep first drop are visible from Highway 85, beckoning to and intimidating passers-by. The ride is among the newest designed by Rocky Mountain Construction, a roller coaster manufacturer that, in the last decade or so, has become one of the most innovative in the business. The company is a particular favorite among roller coaster fans who make special trips to theme parks around the country to check out the latest advancements in thrill-seeking. ArieForce One is named after the Fun Spot America chief executive and owner, John Arie Jr., who said in a news release that the jet-themed coaster was “a tribute to my father and his passion for flying.” And, boy, does it fly. Once you make it over the lift, the ride clocks in at a relatively brief 45 seconds, but it doesn’t waste a single one. “I’ve seen Jesus and came back,” one frazzled rider said.
