Achterbahn Rezensionen

Thematisierung Spaß Sanftheit

A fun, decently thrilling family mine ride with excellent theming.

Abschuss Intensität Hangtime Rückhaltebügel Unangenehm

Surprisingly intense, a shocking amount of hangtime on the twist, and then a wild ride through snappy vertical transitions make for an insane, if not exactly the most comfortable, ride.

My first trip to Kings Island was the weekend of the announcement that this relic of my defunct home park would close at the end of the season. I'm thrilled that I made the trip, but not because of Firehawk itself. The loop offered incredible hangtime, but the rest of the course meandered around while my chest was crushed by the bulky vest restraints. I'm thankful to this coaster for getting me to Kings Island, but I'm not wearing the nostalgia goggles about this one - especially with the plot being used for a giga coaster next season.

Somewhere in the no-man's-land between a quality family ride and an intense launched coaster sits Backlot Stunt Coaster. A sharp banked transition leads into a tight and forceful helix that makes no bones about this ride not being fir the faint of heart, but then it seems to die into a tame experience. The ride can't seem to make up its mind on what it wants to be, and it suffers on both ends of the spectrum.

Intensität Sanftheit

It doesn't hold a candle to its RMC-converted cousin in Charlotte, but the retracked section is butter smooth and the trademark CCI forces make it a pretty intense ride.

A fun, picturesque family mine train.

Invertigo was smooth, forceful, and fun.

Inversionen Headbanging Dead spots

Much better as a floorless than a stand-up, but it's really not an exciting ride. The corkscrew off of the brake run is one of the worst, most painful transitions I've felt on a B&M coaster.

Airtimes Spaß

Fun enough, though it felt like a knockoff of Racer at Kings Island without the recent trackwork. It wasn't exactly rough, but several of the transitions felt like the train hit a pothole.

Standort Abschuss

The launches are forceful and fun, and the twisted spikes give great views of the beach and lake.
