I remember riding this when I conquered my fear of inversions at SFGAdv. What a great day.
The coaster was 13 years old at that point so there was some headbanging involved. But being a 6 year old, I didn't care. I loved the feeling I got on the loops, just the forces pushing me back.
I was on the last train in 2010. I couldn't believe such a legendary coaster was going. Green Lantern = NOT WORTH IT.

This ride just reopened after 3 years of being closed and it did not disappoint. There are strong airtimes in the back row, and the ride isn’t that rough for an old wooden coaster. This was also the first coaster I ever rode in my childhood so it was very nostalgic. Great to have it back in operation.

Underrated coaster. A lot of fun. Usually has a pretty short line. Airtime over the first drop and airtime hill. Fun loop. Corkscrews over the path are a cool concept. Isn't actually too rough or uncomfortable, apart from the expected problems with Arrow OTSRs.

Beast is one of the most legendary coasters of all time. It has an amazing setting and pretty good pacing. The layout is unfortunately made up of bank turns and straight track, but that doesn’t take away from how great of an experience this coaster is.
This ride is amazing. Morgan did one heck of a job here. Phantom is solidly within my top five, and that probably won’t change for a while. The eje...
This ride is amazing. Morgan did one heck of a job here. Phantom is solidly within my top five, and that probably won’t change for a while. The ejector at the end is so powerful, and the first half has good positives as well. This truly is an elite coaster!

This being my first SLC, the king of terrible cloned coasters, I was expecting the ride of my life, and not in a good way. Getting into the train, I eyed the “death restraints” with trepidation, and I prayed that my head would sit high enough so as to not have the coaster play pinball with my head. As I sat down, I remarked to myself that the restraints weren’t nearly as bad as they looked, but I assumed the worst was yet to come. The floor dropped with a deafening creak, and we started up the lift. My seat being the back, I waited patiently for my inevitable doom while dwelling on the fact that maintenance was obviously not a priority here. As we crested the lift, I braced myself for the terrible jackhammering that... didn’t happen? It took me until the end of the first drop to realize something was up. The train was rattling, sure, but I had almost no headbanging! I then realized that I could just enjoy the layout for what it is, and was pleasantly surprised by a great and thrilling layout which highlighted the speed of the trains and the intensity of the inversions. Aside from the rattle, which was noticeable but not to the level that I had been told, there were very few things wrong with the ride. Especially since I had been told that this was one of the worst SLCs, this thoroughly exceeded my expectations. Actually, my biggest gripe with the ride is that the rubber from the restraints rubbed off onto my hands and arms, and I had to do a thorough hand washing to get it off. Overall, 7/10 ride, and #4 in the park.
7/10

Velocicoaster is my number two overall, and rightfully so. This ride is flawless. Easily the best steel Intamin. The inversions are amazing, the theming is otherworldly, and the layout is awesome. This is a must for enthusiasts!
