Achterbahn Rezensionen

Thematisierung

Good fun if a little slow at times, but has some awesome theming all the way round, and some really good near misses. Choo choo!

Thematisierung Nette Überraschung! Spaß Zu kurz Kapazität Rückhaltebügel

Ce coaster commence avec une partie lente de jeu de rythme. Je trouve cela assez fun. Par contre ce débit, 2 min pour un embarquement de 4 personnes ! Petit launch mais layout trop court, 300 mètres! Petit+1

Inversionen Spaß Dauer Rütteln

The back-to-back loops at the start are smooth and really fun. The rest of the layout is creative, but the train rattled in the second half. It wasn't a horrible rattle, but it was enough to detract from an otherwise entertaining ride.

First Drop Standort Spaß

My first attempt to go to Fuji-Q Highland was cut short before we even got into the park. The following morning, on the day we were leaving, we woke up to a crystal clear sky and an immaculate view of Fuji-san. With only enough time to ride one ride at the park before catching our bus, I chose Fujiyama... and I have zero regrets. The panoramic turn after the first drop provided a once-in-a-lifetime view of Mt. Fuji was already enough to make this a 5 Star ride for me. Additionally I thought the ride was soo enjoyable and fun. It was a great ride to ride with my travel partner who is not used to riding rollercoasters. Each drop was smooth. I loved the pacing- the ride felt like it was never-ending but in the best way possible.

Theming is so funny!!!!!!!!!! Hahahaha

Headbanging Enttäuschend! Unangenehm

A great way to ruin your day. Terrible "flow", The spins are jerky and unnatural. Not fun or enjoyable at all. The only thing I liked about the ride was the initial lift.. the expectation of a fun new ride before being disappointed. I'm just glad I rode it towards the end of my park day... because I needed an aspirin immediately.

Inversionen Intensität Dauer Rütteln Headbanging

I went on this in 2021 for the first time in probably ten or eleven years (maybe longer?), and I was pleasantly surprised at how well it held up. It is very intense with plenty of cool gravity moments and bone crushing inversions. Yes, there’s a little bit of head banging and rattle if you don’t position your head correctly, but as long as you keep your head back, you should be fine. It doesn’t overstay its welcome either. Any longer and I probably would’ve gotten a worse headache, but it ended just at the right time. I positioned my head about as best as I could and I still wound up with a bit of a headache. Regardless, they must be pouring a lot of maintenance into this thing to be keeping it in as good of shape as it’s in considering how historical it is. Color me impressed. Definitely give it a ride.

First Drop Standort Ejectors Dead spots Layout

It’s hard for somebody who is just riding this now for the first time in present day to understand just how iconic it was and incredible to ride when it first launched. This is one of the first ever B&M hypers and my bread and butter on every Six Flags Great America trip up until my senior year of high school. I moved to Florida in 2019, but my wife and I went to Six Flags in July 2021 and I went on Raging Bull for the first time in probably ten or more years. While that first drop is still iconic and the view from the top is incredible as well, certain parts of the ride have not aged well. Some of my criticism is a result of living close to Mako at SeaWorld Orlando which blows Raging Bull out of the water in terms of B&M hypers, but I was extremely underwhelmed at the layout of the second half of the ride. It was much tamer in terms of raw thrills than I remember it being not counting that first drop, and there was a much more distinct rattle than I remember (likely due to the ride’s age). It’s just kind of a dead zone in certain spots, which again, compare that to Mako where the ride is pure unadulterated fun and ejector airtime throughout. It is 100% still worth riding, but it’s old; there’s no denying that. We’ve evolved in terms of hypers and there’s nothing wrong with that, but there is still fun to be had here! For sure give this a whirl.

First Drop Komfort Sanftheit Zu kurz Layout

The first drop on this RMC is NUTS. I’ve only been on this and Iron Gwazi so far as far as RMCs, but the drops achieve different purposes. Goliath seems to be going more for a “speed drop/claustrophobic layout with the coaster pylons” thing, whereas Gwazi just wants you to savor that sweet sweet height and drop angle. Goliath is intense, smooth, and has some solid ejector seat moments after that, but like others have noted it’s way too short and the rest of the layout is nowhere near as iconic as that first drop. It’s easily my favorite coaster at Great America though and worth multiple rides.

Komfort Spaß Intensität

Of the many Batman clones I've ridden, this comes in a close second to the one at SFOG. This is smooth and intense, and it's just a good time.
