Inversions Fun Smoothness

One of the better free spins I've ridden. Got a really flippy fun ride on this one

Hated it

Inversions Location Dead spots Layout Reliability

I only got 1 flip on this so it was pretty boring. I also was barely able to ride this due to reliability issues throughout the day. At least it looks nice right next to the lake.

Tear it down!

No ride should ever leave you squealing like a bee-gee on the first drop. In too much pain to even notice the rest of the ride. Utterly terrible.

As with any S&S, reliability is always an issue, but nonetheless Ive had some great rides on it.

Fun

I’ve always found these to be fun. The rotation is unpredictable and fun. I flipped quite a bit on this one and enjoyed it.

Inversions Fun Intensity Too short Pointless

ANOTHER S&S 4D I honestly don't have to much hate against this one. But there just pointless at this point because of the duration of the coaster. I would most definitely rather ride a long X2 type coaster then a short Joker coaster. I wouldn't say its a must do but if you have the chance take a spin on Joker.

Airtimes Fun Capacity Discomfort

This was my second 4D Freespin after Arashi, and I was kind of let down. Compared to how I remembered Arashi being, Joker was more uncomfortable and did not flip as much. It's not uncomfortable to the level of Zacspins, but it does take a way from the enjoyment a little. I wish they would have invested for a real Wing Coaster for such a large park, we all know how Six Flags operates. As with other Freespins, I enjoyed the pops of airtime, but it's only an okay ride aside from that.

Intensity Discomfort

The inversions you get are pretty disorienting and make for a truly unique experience. Other than that its kinda wonky with weak forces. Its a glorified flat ride that gets the coaster badge on technicality. I would'nt try it again unless it was a walk on.

I do not care for this. My crotch also didn't care for this ride. It feels like a flat ride. Nope...not for me.

Fun Capacity Reliability

While S&S Free Spins can be fun, this one has issues. The queue set-up they have for this ride takes ages, and the park procedure has the ops be sticklers about literally anything in your pocket; it's not even just phones, myself as well as some other people I saw were kicked out of line for having stuff like chap stick and candy in their pockets. If that wasn't annoying enough, the ride literally broke down 8 times while I was in queue/on the ride, often stranding people on the ride for like 20 minutes while maintenance crews attempted to get the ride moving again. From my conversations with the ride-ops it would seem that such unreliability is the normal operations of this ride, with all of them saying that Joker is the shittiest ride to work and maintain in the park due to how often it goes down. Unless you're that dedicated for the credit, I'd probably avoid this one.
