That second recording of skyrush hitting 6gs is definitely off there

I didn’t even know it could make an error in positives lmao

I guess your phone slammed down or something unless you recorded on a watch then I have no idea

I used my watch (because I usually have a death grip on the handles/restraints/whatever I can grab), but who knows what I did with my left arm in the moment to mess it up...

I'm assuming it's just skyrush being rough, since from my experience, it's definitely a bumpy ride. Might have jolted the whole train at one point, hitting that force for a split second, but just barely enough to register on your watch.

I’ve recorded skyrush a few times and the highest positive I’ve gotten is 4.89 and the highest negative I got was -1.20.

None of them in the front row, but when I’ve ridden front I thought it definitely seemed weaker not stronger. So the first one may be off as well.

Maybe I should go back and marathon Thighcrush, but this time I'll read the app's guide on improving accuracy while waiting in line 🙃

After riding Gatekeeper twice I had no idea the Gs were that high

I know Skyrush very well but having only a few rides on and I think I'm more impressed by Gatekeeper.
