Las Vegas-Stratosphere-new ride!!!
Has anyone ridden the new thrill ride atop the Stratosphere?? Their website doesn't show any live pictures, just an artist rendition. Is it done? I think it's called "X-Treme"? Where can I find a picture? It looks all sorts of scary!!

I watched people ride the X-Scream last week. It looks outrageously scary--especially when the arm suddenly DROPS and there you are hanging over the top of the tower. However, the riders looked unfazed and claimed that the people screaming the loudest were actually the spectators, not the riders!
It only opened 6 weeks ago and it has malfunctioned a couple of times, according to some people there.

ok what makes me really nervous is that it only opened 6 weeks ago? Is this true? We were in Vegas in October and it was scheduled to open on Halloween night. WE planned to ride when we go out in April but if there was that long of a delay in opening I am not so sure....anyone know why it didn't open on time?
