bjkaus 2 Report post Posted September 9, 2004 can someone explain to me how the claw starts? i'm not too famillar with rides, and the fences for this look real close. does the gondola rise up the central shaft? does the central "shaft" move up or is there plenty of room for it to just swing freely?
