    First Drop Spaß Dead spots

    It's fast, it's forceful through the first tunnel, and it's pretty fun. It just doesn't do anything after that; it's just overbanks and straight track once you get to Millennium Island.

    Airtimes First Drop Hangtime

    An incredible warmup or cooldown ride, GateKeeper gives insane hangtime on the inverting drop, strong positives on the pullout, then some great floater air and some solid zero g moments through the keyholes. Worth the wait for the front, and if you're riding with a partner, make sure both of you get the chance to experience an outside seat.

    Schoßbügel Tempo Sanftheit

    The speed of this ride could have given more forceful airtime, but it was still quite fun.

    Spaß Sanftheit Hangtime

    This is an odd one, as I feel it would have been better as a wing coaster. The drop and first few elements are fast but smooth, unlike the snappiness inverts are known for, and the elevated inversions later in the ride offer incredible hangtime.

    Schoßbügel Tempo Spaß

    An odd ride, with some solid forces. It doesn't hold a candle to its cousin in Williamsburg, but it was enjoyable. The second half kind of died off; a twister section just doesn't seem right for this ride.

    Inversionen Spaß Intensität

    The Immelmann is a fun twist on the invert formula, but the rest of the ride lacked the pizazz I wanted from it.

    Tempo Intensität Layout Unangenehm

    Slamming into the headache-inducing transition before the brake run is an awful final impression to a tight, fast, intense ride. Hearing the signature roar from the parking lot is a great way to start the day.

    Standort Spaß Intensität Dead spots

    Let me get this out of the way: at night, this feels like a really nice hike through the deep woods. I love the vibe in the dark. But when the sun shines and the flaws can't be hidden, you notice that the ride is made mostly of straight track. Half of the ride duration is devoted to climbing the two lift hills, and while the rose bowl helix is incredibly forceful and a wonderful finale to the ride, it's almost not worth waiting three minutes strapped into the ride just to experience that.

    Tempo Intensität Layout

    An intense experience from drop to brake run. This was my first invert besides Raptor, and the snappiness, relentless pace, and forcefulness took me by surprise.

    Tempo Intensität Layout

    Alpengeist was everything I wanted from an invert. It was intense without being nauseating, and the layout was a fun deviation from the generic B&M invert layout - not just the Batman clones, but Raptor as well. It felt fast, and the terrain interaction was incredible.
