Riddler Mindbender • Six Flags Over Georgia

Intensity Disappointing!

This is was my first Schwartzkopf and the vertical loops really caught me by surprise. The first drop in the back is good. And the first loop gives you a good dose of positive gs. Shockwaves loops are better, but Mind Bender's are still fun. Whenever you ride back up, you get some good air in the front. The little dive thingy that six flags call a "loop", is very forceful, but very rough. I wouldn't call this whole ride rough, it's just a little shaky. The drop following the "loop" is fun in the back and gives you good airtime. Once again, as you rise back up and level out flat you get some good floater in the front. The next drop is once again good in the back and the loop following is forceful. Then you ride back up and turn into the brake run.

Riddler Mindbender is SO overrated. I haven’t ridden this yet, but the drop does nothing, and you feel like the Schwarzkopf rattle is back again. This is just a clone of Shockwave at Over Texas. Shockwave just makes Mindbender look like a joke. When I get to Over Georgia, I will ride this and it will probably confirm my low expectations, but I hope for a better outcome.

Location Fun Intensity Rattle Disappointing!

I'll get sued for this, but I don't care. This ride is so overrated it's not even funny. Keep in mind I sat in the drop, and the drop did nothing. The loops honestly hurt, and it's just not elite. It could change with a ride in the back, but who knows.

Inversions Comfort Masterpiece

I don’t know what makes me love this coaster so much! Maybe it’s the graceful and glossy smooth layout, or the two forceful vertical loops, or the beautiful terrain Mind Bender is interwoven with... it may not be insanely intense like its Canadian brother (which I have also ridden), but Mind Bender would make a great introduction to inversions for future coasterfans. I hope Mind Bender is around for decades to come!

Inversions Location Ejectors

Mind Bender is a really perfect coaster. Make sure you sit in the front, you get three instances of ejector airtime. Combined with the two forceful loops and huge diving helix, and you have a perfect balance of airtime and positive forces. Combine this with the comfortable, minimalist restraints, and the gorgeous setting in a small ravine, diving past a waterfall, and you have a perfect classic coaster.
