Coaster reviews

It’s a standard wild mouse, mercifully with no spinning. The one thing going for it is the unique international themed cars from different countries shaped a little like toboggans.

Theming Nice surprise!

Since La Ronde has so many clones of rides from other parks, the real two unique rides are the wood coaster Monster and this Dragon indoor dark ride and I definitely enjoyed this ride. Like most indoor coasters, the track has to weave around inside a building but within the constraints it’s a wonderful family coaster that is smooth and has fun dragon theming inside. I definitely prefer this to any other indoor coaster I’ve ridden, including the new Intamin indoor DarKoaster at Busch Gardens Williamsburg.

First Drop Fun Layout Rattle Too short

Beat my expectations. The first drop was fun. It has a good layout, but several parts were rattly. Was it worth $8 for one ride? Eh.

Monster is another 5 star wood coaster that is brought down by the park management’s refusal to properly maintain it in like new condition with fresh lumber and partial rebuilds it needs every year. As it is now, it’s barely enjoyable because you just spend the entire time bracing your body for each rough bang and jolt. Waiting in the queue you are surrounded by rotting ancient wood supports that look unsafe. It’s a shame and it’s unfortunately all too common at amusement parks consumed by shortsighted greed.

I usually really enjoy the Batman clones but this one just seemed a bit more forceful and crazy than previous ones, which many folks here would love I guess but to me was not great. It’s not very re-rideable for me.

Comfort

Goliath is a fairly standard B&M hyper that is good but not great. It’s smooth and fun and has decent airtime.

Location Fun Dead spots

Rode it near the front. It’s fun. But the turns are definitely not smooth. I think they should have just had one lift hill and have it go all the way to the top.The brakes are also oddly bumpy. It would be cool if it’s timed perfectly, you could get a great view of Full Throttle while riding this.

First Drop Comfort Too short

very good ride can be a bit rough but launch is very good

Launch Harness Layout Rattle

amazing launch, and great tophat.

Duration Discomfort

decent spinning coaster i guess :)
