The Lightning Side of Lightning Racer (didn’t get to the Thunder side) is a fun but tad painful wooden coaster. The first drop is excellent and the rest of the layout is both long and unique with tons of elements and near-misses. However, with it being a wooden coaster with lots of elements beyond just airtime (which honestly could’ve been a bit better after the first drop), the ride can get very rattly and painful, as both me and my partner walked off needing Advil.

Great Bear is a very solid B&M floorless by every definition. Long layout, whippy inversions, and smooth as silk. My only gripe is it’s not as forceful as other coasters of its type, but I rode Great Bear in the dark and that delivered some added intensity not seeing the track in front of you. A perfectly good coaster that is made great with a night ride.

Candymonium is a really fun experience start to finish. Placed at the front of the park, you get excellent views and a really fun track layout around the Kisses Fountain. The first drop is super intense, as well as the first airtime hill, after that it’s a very fun, smooth, and pleasant (albeit less forceful) ride on its long layout. Another excellent hyper coaster from B&M, one of my favorites by them.

Skyrush is a coaster explicitly designed for only the strongest of coaster riders. The ride is intense beyond belief, with an absurd first drop, insane ejector airtime, and tons of lateral Gs. I had no problem with the restraints like some, but the intensity actually was too much at some points, making me a bit sick and disoriented after the ride. It’s a ride I’m happy I rode and really liked, but it’s likely I won’t be riding it again anytime soon just due to how overwhelmingly intense it actually is in spite of its somewhat deceiving looks.
