Figment's air blast

[dylan313]

Although it's a relatively simple effect, I can't figure out where in the world the air comes from. I don't see any holes looking forward or in the ride vehicle. So how is it done? And does anyone else always jump when it goes off?

It's next to the monitors.

Well..... that was a lot simpler than I expected...... thanks anyways.

It's actually an air cannon behind/above each car.

I believe the OP is talking about the end of the ride just before the monitors go away to reveal the final scene.

Actually, I think Spideyfreak110 just may be right. I found a 360 degree video of the ride on Youtube and noticed this suspicious looking structure behind the cars...

Is it possible they're both right? The bulk of the air from behind, with a small "poof" from the front to create a "swirling" blast of air?
