Cebu’s Only Edge Coaster

Be warned!

Edge Coaster-44
All who are interested to ride the EDGE COASTER should be at least 52 inches or 4ft and 4in tall.

Entrance fee: P380 each person.

Rip off!  We had no choice but to pay the entrance fee or else, we wouldn’t be able to ride the edge coaster (P250).

Entrance fee comes with a free meal stub…sandwich, doughnut, siopao or pies with a glass of iced tea.

To be honest, I had second thoughts on riding the edge coaster because I hate heights. But after hanging around and seeing my friend, M and HB, ride the edge coaster. I thought why not just ride and be done with it too! My friend and my partner, MR, agreed and we paid our ride immediately.

One thing surprised me was seeing my friend, M and HB looking so stiff on the photo above.  I thought they’d be waving their arms freely as if showing off…but they did not…not after a while of urging them to do so…

Here’s what I did!  I had fun! hehehe  At first, I felt scared but after a few seconds, I thought I’d enjoy the ride.  So, I just waved and waved and waved…

…and be wacky!  I thought our ride was faster than HB’s.  We just got uneasy when there is a corner becauce the ride would kinda jerk maybe to adjust, other than that, we had fun!

This guy enjoyed his ride by riding the edge coaster on a normal angle.  This can be done after you are being tilted 55deg.  You’ll just adjust a lever and be back on your normal sitting angle.  We didn’t do this because it would defeat the purpose and we wanted excitement..even for a few seconds. We could’ve rode again but shelling out at least P250 (discounted rate if 2nd time), is not any reasonable for me.

If you want to have a souvenir photo, you can have it done at their studio and you can also fake your background.

By the way, you can also have your photos taken by their official photographer at a fee.  I wasn’t able to get it because it slipped my mind that I needed to inform you guys of such option.  Sorry! Try to check out their website, maybe they’ve shared the information.

They are open from 10am to 2am.  For more information, do contact them at the below contact details.

P.S.  We were supposed to do the SKYWALK (P250/ride) but due to tight schedule, we weren’t able to wait for the guide who didn’t report on time on a busy SATURDAY.  We asked for a refund and got it after a few minutes of reasoning to their supervisor.
