Achterbahn Rezensionen

Tempo Spaß Sanftheit Zu kurz

A short but very fun, well themed, fast paced ride with nice twists and dips

Spaß Dauer Unangenehm

With the pretty long train it has a nice whip sitting in the back. Sadly the seats a pretty uncomfortable and when sitting alone in a car the strong laterals make you slide from one side of the seat to the other. It has a good duration and does 2 laps

Nette Überraschung! Tempo Spaß Thematisierung

Nice surprisingly fun family coaster. Has a good long layout with nice pace and does 2 laps

Airtimes Layout Dauer

Awesome ride, my fav. ride. Had no wait. The first inversion out the station is a perfect way to start a coaster, there are intense ejector moments (when sitting in the front and in the back). Many great elements and a good length.

First Drop Thematisierung Zu kurz

Beautiful well themed ride with a cool elevator lift and nice first drop. Sadly its just one drop and then back to the station

There's not much to say about American Eagle. Your typical wooden rollercoaster, however it's old & consequentially has quite a strong rattle. Get ready to get hurt and have some fun! I wouldn't prioritize American Eagle at Six Flags Great America, try going on all the other phenomenal rides and if you have remaining time, give it a try.

Thematisierung Enttäuschend! Dead spots Layout

El Diablo - Tren de la Mina has great theming... and that's it. I consider this coaster an absolute mistake and am still wondering why it exists. It takes a good amount of space that can be used for anything else, literally. There are chain lift hills... and nothing afterwards. Just brakes & another chain lift hill. No drops, no steep turns, no acceleration. You can hear people trying hard to make it a little fun by wanting to scream 'Woo!' at the of the chain lift hill but only ending up with a dead 'W...o..o...'. Everyone is confused, when is the ride starting? Why are we going through multiple chain lift hills & experiencing no drops? Oh it's already over? The only fun experience is the fact that you're close to the log flume & can say hello to people over there from the coaster for a few seconds, but that's it. I get that it's a mine train, but it's fast enough to not be able to see anything around you, yet slow enough to be genuinely boring. An absolute waste of time! A better experience on the actual train that takes you from zone to zone in PortAventura!

First Drop Meisterwerk Intensität Zu kurz

Ahh what to say about Goliath?! Is 'fastest wooden rollercoaster' enough?! That first drop is insane. The entire ride is insane, from start to finish. For once I'm writing up a relatively short review for a masterpiece of a coaster. A real bummer it's not longer. RMC does not disappoint yet again. If you skip you might as well go home! This is one of the best rides SFGAm has to offer!

Kapazität Komfort Sanftheit

X-Flight was very difficult for me to rate. Without a doubt it is the smoothest, most efficiently operated & most comfortable ride in the park. However, nothing is really extraordinary on it. The experience is great, but you're not gonna end your day at SFGAm remembering your X-Flight experience particularly. It is outshined by its neighboring coasters, despite being a very solid B&M wing coaster. I recommend going on it once or twice, however there's no denying you're bound to get more intensity & fun on other rides.

Abschuss Spaß Intensität Kapazität

Operations & capacity wise, Vertical Velocity is a nightmare. You wait in line for a while (or, in my case, purchase a fast pass), & once you're done queueing, you're sent to the station where there's dozens & dozens of more people with absolutely no line or staff. The station wait time was approximately 35 minutes. That's the station wait time only, not the line. Now with operations all cleared up, this is a VERY fun ride, and man is it intense! Launch is fine, nothing extraordinary, but the overall experience is extremely fun & nice. No rattle or discomfort whatsoever, so great on that aspect as well. It will be hard to skip Vertical Velocity, as it is a solid entry in Six Flags Great America's lineup.
