    The Rock 'n' Roller Coaster has 3 inversions. The first two are part of a maneuver called a "rollover". The third is a corkscrew. But inversions in coasters are usually designed so that you can barely feel that you are upside down. There are almost always positive G's during inversions, which means the forces from your body mass is directed into your seat instead of away from it. You don't feel like you are "hanging" upside down or anything. Instead, it just makes you feel like you weigh less. If you weigh something like 125 lb, you would probably feel like you only weigh about 75 lb. at the top of the loop. When entering the loop, you would feel like you weigh more, up to something like 625 lb (because the coaster pulls a maximum of 5 G's). So many people are scared of going upside down in coasters the first time, but it is really just the launches or steep drops that are somewhat scary. If you can handle that, you have no problem with going upside down! On this coaster, the music and effects also distract you to help keep you from getting scared and just make the overall experience even better!

    1. Sometimes upsidedown roller coasters can be pretty bad for motion sickness. Usually it depends on how the rest of the roller coaster is designed. 2. At Disneyworld, Rockin' Roller Coaster was the only ride that went upside down. 3.I didn't think Rockin Roller Coaster was too bad. I might not recommend it if you could get motion sick. However, its not as bad as some other roller coasters because its inside in a dark room. It seems that removes some of the feelings of motion sickness that most people get. Ive gone on it a couple times in a row and didn't get sick. So once shouldn't be too bad. It really is a very fun rollercoaster, and its pretty smooth ride. Since its not too shaky, that should help with motion sickness too.

    its not "spinny" its a roller coaster.

    and yes it goes upside down 3 times. there is 1 vertical loop and then 2 corkscrews.

    its indoors and in the dark and you can barely even tell you are going upside down.

    the most exciting parts of the ride are the launching start from 0-60mph in just 2.8 seconds and the fact that you hear aerosmith songs on the ride.

    you should be able to handle it especially if you like the speed and the music.

    Yes, it does go upside down. There is high-speed launch of 0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds, three inversions, two rollover loops and one corkscrew.

    It is very fast and very dark. You can't really see what's coming until after you are already through it. So there's not really time to be scared. Also, it is only a couple minutes long. It's not "spinny."

    Yes, it does go upside down. But its too dark anyways to tell whats going on. So you probably wont even know what direction your going in half the time.

    PS (hopefully this doesn't spoil it for you) but right when all the employees put their thumds up to signal that is all clear, you better hang on, becasue it doesn't start off going up a hill. it literally blasts out of the starting gate. - ohh man good times :)

    it does go upside down ive gone on it 2 times but its right in the beginning after you go super fast and its in the dark so you dont even notice it. its really fun you should definatley try it

    Yes it does. I haven't rode but I dad and uncle did. They both came out okay but for some strange reason when they were talking about the ride they got twitchy.

    (I'm guessing they didn't like going upside down)
