Coaster reviews

Inversions Pace Capacity

Fahrenheit is a solid inversion-focused coaster. Runs well, and stays at a strong pace. Surprising airtime too. There are better inversion focused coasters but Fahrenheit is still a strong ride in its own right.

Airtimes Fun Rattle

Comet is a great classic woodie. Its age shows. It’s not smooth at all. But it’s a lovable classic woodie kind of rough. Delivers some solid airtime. Great fit in the lineup at Hersheypark.

Airtimes Comfort Smoothness

Candymonium is a fantastic hyper coaster. It delivers great floater airtime. It’s in a beautiful location. Runs super smooth. Everything you could ask for from a B&M Hyper.

Rattle Discomfort Tear it down!

I do not know if they have fixed anything of this ride as I have not ridden this since 2015 because of the bad experience I have had with this coaster. I would definitely think that getting rid of this coaster entirely to make place for a new wouldn't be the worst idea. I saw today that the go-karts area next to Goliath and behind the Condor is being torn down to make way for a new ride. I wonder what will be there! Mayhaps they could remove the condor and use the Go-Karting track to build a whole new massive coaster. And then the pathway between the condor and the go-karting (leading to Goliath) could be rerouted through the exotic area, also making the exotic part theme part of the speed zone. I would love to see a B&M at this park, as the Netherlands doesn't have many of that manufacturer. (2015-07-19) Review 2021-06-24 With the new vest restrains the headbanging is definitely not so bad. The rattle is still exteremely unbarable though. As in music production I always tell people "Cannot fix a bad sample, you can only mask it" same is the case here. The new trains definitely masked the issues a tad, but all the issues this coaster has are still apparent. Upping this from 1 star to 1.5 star for effort. This ride might only be fixable if they would take the Python approach, but I honestly do not think it's worth it with this coaster as the layout itself is not so great either. The spot next to this coaster (go-kart area) is being prepped for a new attraction. They could use the el condor plot with that imo, but I dont think that will happen as they just got new trains for this coaster :P

Inversions Comfort Fun Dead spots

This coaster is insane. I frigging love it to bits. Shame that at the midway breakrun there's a little bit of a deadspot, as it does kill the pacing. But at the same time it's nice to have a breather. The outside seats are definitely more intense than the middle spots and you are basically flung out of your seats, it's pretty neat. Definitely one of my favs coasters I have ridden thusfar. Also those restrains are comfortable as hell. Love them. In other reviews I am reading something about a rattle, but I have not experienced any rattle at all in either of the times I rode this today. It was a butter smooth experience. I do know that Mack Rides recently came by last week to fix a technical issue, no clue if that has to do with it.

Theming Launch Intensity

Apart from a long wait time (expected on a masterpiece like this), great ride with the the best elements being the stall, launches, and theming. The raptor animatronics shown through the queue look terrifyingly real! Great experience recommend for everybody!

Fun Discomfort

It’s a kiddy coaster. It is what it is. That aside, it went around 6 cycles and has some fun lats and a little tinge of floater air, which is just a smidge more than I can ask for from a kiddy coaster.

Smoothness Capacity Discomfort

Really fun ride in a beautiful location. Ran real well. It’s a great piece of history if you’re a Busch Gardens fan since it used to operate there. But it has one small cramped train and it’s got some jank to it as is typical of coaster of its age. All in all though fun ride.

First Drop Capacity Lap Bar Rattle

Good ride but due to the rattle on the seats on the side, not the best coaster

Pace Masterpiece Intensity Reliability

Incredible sense of speed. Bone crushing g’s. The snappiest transitions on any coaster ever. Above average airtime. Feels five minutes, lasts one. Legitimately cannot get better than this. 11/10.
