    Abschuss Rütteln Zu kurz Zuverlässigkeit

    This coaster is just fine. It’s a typical boomerang style launch coaster with minimal intensity and just one inversion. My biggest complaint is that it never seems to be open. I’ve been to Knotts a couple times, and it’s usually closed. I hear that it’s hit and miss with the operation. When it is running though, this thing is loud. Not much intensity and a boring track layout make this one of Knotts’ weaker coasters in the lineup.

    I like the area around this land, and the water compliments the coaster nicely. It’s a kiddie coaster in a kiddie land, but personally I think they could’ve done something more with this area. Roger Rabbit is right across the way and it’s a much more enjoyable ride than this. I get it that the aim is kids/family rides here, but this one just isn’t worth it.

    You know what you’re getting before you get on, it’s a kiddie coaster and it knows it. Virtually the same layout as Disneyland’s “Gadget’s Go Coaster”, but with the added element of the barn that makes this just a little bit more enjoyable.

    As a Disney fan and California native, I was expecting more from WDW’s space mountain. It was one of the most underwhelming experiences I’ve had on a roller coaster. The trains are far worse than it’s California counterpart, and there’s virtually no leg room. There’s no intensity throughout the ride, and the lack of renovations this version has gotten compared to the Disneyland one is telling. New trains and a retracking would do this Disney classic some good.

    Layout Headbanging Kapazität

    Vekoma SLC’s are notoriously painful, and this is no exception. First time on this about killed my brain, but it has since gotten better and more smooth. The layout is standard for most SLC’s, and some parts are kind of intense. Ride ops aren’t great here, largely due to the fact that they usually only run one of the two trains. Theyve given this coaster a VR overlay in the past, and when they do it slows things down even more. SFDK doesn’t have that many coasters, so I understand if you want to ride it or just want another credit. But, it’s usually a skip for me on my visits.

    In terms of B&M flourless coasters, this one’s not the best. It certainly has its problems, but it’s not a bad ride. I actually think it’s smoothed out quite a bit recently, to a point where I don’t really have an issue with it. The layout is pretty cool, and you’ll enjoy yourself for sure. I think the rattle on this thing is annoying, a huge con to be completely honest. Compared to Medusa at SFDK, this thing is deafening.

    Hard to say a bad thing about this coaster. The 0-82 launch in just seconds is wild, and the intensity through to the end of the drop is definitely present. I also like that on this ride, unlike others of its kind, you go around the hill a little bit and the ride doesn’t just end. It’s enjoyable, it’s fast, and it towers over the park and Buena Park. Great coaster all the way around.

    Layout Dauer Unangenehm Irrelevant

    This is one of the most average rides I’ve ever been on. It’s long, which is nice, but ultimately it doesn’t do much for me. There’s no intensity, no good drops, nothing. But, it offers some great views from above the park and a nicely themed attraction area for the most part. Ride ops are horrendous, and you might wait 30 minutes for a line that should take 10-15. It takes up such a big footprint I think they could really put a better ride here. It’s not disastrous, but it’s not great by any stretch.

    Nette Überraschung! Layout Zu kurz

    The ride is actually pretty fun. It doesn’t look too enticing, but the spinning really adds to the coaster. Some of the bank turns and other elements are thrilling, and I think it does it’s job as a family coaster.

    Standort Enttäuschend! Unangenehm

    To say I was underwhelmed would be an understatement. This ride fits I the land, and it has a better layout than the traditional rides of its type. The worst part about this coaster is just how boring it is. To wait in line, and sit in cramped seats just for this ride is disappointing. Knotts is a great park with great attractions, but this is not one of them.
