a totally average wooden coaster, but it was the first roller coaster I ever rode, so it holds a special place in my heart. I don't know if this is still true, but when I was younger if there was no line at the opening of the park, the ride operators would let you ride multiple times in a row without getting off of the coaster.

I was excited to ride this coaster for its uniqueness, being that it’s one of four S&S woodies. The location of this ride, being up the hill secluded by a lot of trees helps the ride experience. The ride is smooth and comfortable since it is not an extreme ride. It has a few minor points of airtime and some weak but noticeable laterals. The biggest cons about the ride is its overall “lack of doing much.” The PTC trains did nothing for me it terms of affect on the ride. Since it’s comfortable for me, they don’t hurt or help the ride. Overall, in a conversation talking about this ride, I would refer it as “good,” not amazing but just good. It’s not a knock your socks off type of ride but it’s something you can easily ride many times and still have a good time.

this ride,granted,is the best coaster in all of wild waves,and this is the first ever woodie by s&s,and its quiet interesting to see their own take on a woodie.it was build in 2003,right after they build hypersonic and dodo-donpa,two cool rides.however,it seems that s&s doesnt make this woodies anymore,ans there are only 4(including timberhawk)remaind.all of their last woodies were build in 2004 with the last one being hell cat at clementon park at new jeresy.so what are my thoguhts?honestly the ride main issue is that it is a pretty discomfort ride,mustly in the turns,but i will speak on that later.the rides layout is pretty cool and unique,with great and actually pretty smooth airtime hills which provides airtime in its best.some cool headchoppers with the track,good views and drives with a good pace.however,as mentioned,the turns can be painful,unlike the airtime hills,every turn just slams you into the cars,and it isnt that good n a woodie,thats the reason why i dont like bandit that much.still,it is good,just need to smooth the turns and it will be much better ride.
