Manta Video Question

[starrock77]

I've seen some videos of Manta on Youtube where the rider is wearing a special vest. Seems like this is used to guide the camera to the rider. Is the video available to anyone? Meaning can anyone purchase a video of his\her ride?

the videos that I've seen on you tube are from the media day. Sea world had one train with a camera mounted. They called it Mantacam.

the vest that you reference, is actually part of the restraint system

there is a video offered of your ride. But I'm guessing it's like the one on Sheikra. Where footage of your ride from stationary cameras is splice into canned POV footage.

The vest I am referring to is a black padded thing that straps onto the chest of the rider. Not everyone who was riding had one, so it can't be a restraint thing.

That is is an extra restraint for people with certain physical conditions. It basically straps you to the train; most commonly used for guest with out limbs.
