I can imagine that the thrill from it must be amazing, but it won't beat the feeling you get whilst being cranked up a 500ft ramp on a chain. Such a build-up.
I can remember when I went to Alton Towers, and went on a ride called Air. Basically you're strapped in (no proper seats) and dangled so you're looking down throughout the whole ride. Well, you get cranked up a big ramp at the start, not too big, under 100ft by far (big for us

), and so we were there, being cranked up, and the whole thing stopped. The train thingy slipped down a metre or two and stopped. It was very scary, dangled above some jagged rocks, especially when you can't stand heights.
Now that has got to be a bigger thrill then a big blast of air. More hormones and chemicals rushing through your body, a bigger build up to the ride.
