Scorpion • Busch Gardens Tampa

Comfort Intensity Rattle Capacity

Scorpion was my 150th coaster credit, chosen by me for my love of Schwarzkopf’s classic coasters and this model’s rareness. It did somewhat deliver that hallmark Schwarzkopf intensity in the vertical loop and bizarre but awesome 900° helix, however, there was a very prevalent rattle throughout the entire ride. The train seemed to be frantically shuffling about as soon as it hit that loop, resulting in some awkward jolts and bounces from side to side. Putting this con aside, Scorpion is a solid family looping coaster that delivers a reasonably fun introduction to going upside down for coasterfans in training.

Nice surprise! Fun Intensity Capacity

The best choice in Florida for a first looping coaster. Though the one train operations plague this ride with long lines, it's comfortable with a surprising punch, and fun for everyone.
