Coaster reviews

Inversions Intensity Duration Theming

Pretty good coaster with pretty intense inversions and other good elements.

Fun Harness Intensity Rattle Too short Discomfort

This coaster is very janky but it makes it pretty fun in a way

First Drop Comfort Fun Theming

Great coaster that is truly fun but could use some better theming

Inversions Launch Too short

Nice ride. People complain too much about the restraints they are really not that bad.

First Drop Intensity Smoothness Harness

Pretty good ride with interesting elements and very intense although the shin guards on the restraint were very uncomfortable and the load time is consistently like 2-3 minutes.

Discomfort Tear it down! Pointless

This thing is bad. Like spectacularly terrible considering how short it is.

First Drop Pointless Dead spots Layout

The grizzly is just an outdated coaster. The drops aren’t bad, but there are only a couple of them, and the layout mainly consists of the train going about 10 mph, making its way to the next drop. There are so many dead spots, and the grizzly definitely needs to be torn down. The layout consists of a drop, than a long 10 mph turn to the next drop. Half of your ride is just nothing. The final downfall, is this ride takes up so much room in the park. California’s Great America already has developed 100% of their land, and the grizzly takes up a good chunk of it. CGA, can so use this room for something so much better. I believe that the Grizzly definitely deserves the RMC treatment.

Smoothness Too short Pointless Layout

Can’t really put too much blame on why this coaster is bad. Patriot was originally vortex, and vortex was one of B&M’s first stand up models. The problem with patriot is mainly it’s layout. There are 2 inversions and everything else are just dips and turns. The ride is pretty smooth and there wasn’t much headbanging. The ride was just pointless and although the inversions were solid, we need more than just 2. And Finally, the ride is just too short. There are 2 inversions and just a couple dips and turns and than the ride is over. All in all, just a below average coaster.

Inversions Launch Intensity Too short

This one feels like the second half of Velocicoaster. It gets right into the action with a super fast launch, and it's my personal favorite accelerator.

Location Disappointing! Pointless Layout

This ride feels like a mine train with a loop. Definitely shows its age, has no big drops or thrilling moments, but at the very least, the scenery is nice
