Coaster reviews

Airtimes Pace

This ride blew away my expectations of it in an amazing way and imo is the best in the whole state and better than irat (hot take ik). fantastic airtime and some of the best pacing on any coaster I have been on

Airtimes Lap Bar Fun Intensity

This ride is easily the best B&M Hyper I have been on and arguably the best in the world. the amount of room you can get on this ride with the amount of airtime on the ride feels almost illegal. People also complain about the 2nd half of this ride and while it isnt as good as the first half it is still very good.

Inversions Fun Smoothness

I went into this ride assuming to be in a lot of pain, but it was not in the slight bit rough. the inversion was amazing with the rest of the layout also being great (just not as good as the inversion lol). If you are in the area of this ride I would say it is for sure worth the trip to it, you wont regret it.

First Drop Intensity Ejectors Lap Bar

I wish I could add more pros but it wont let me. Almost everything about this coaster is amazing. From the first drop to one of the best endings on any coaster. every element hits. this ride is very intense and although many would say this ride is very rough I would have to disagree. a nearly flawless coaster and is a very underrated RMC that does not get enough hype.

Launch Pace Layout Theming

I enjoyed this. I get what others have said about the lack of theming and the low quality video sections. Improving this may turn this into a standout ride. As it is it was a brilliant layout, launches were forceful and the train spinning at certain points was great. Favourite bit was the reverse drop near the end as wasn’t expecting it. Good but forgettable ride

Inversions Intensity Duration

I really enjoyed this. Felt like a proper old school coaster! Good intensity on the drops and inversions. Made a great roar as it raced round the track. Not the smoothest ride I’ve been on but good for its age and wasn't painful for me like some reviewers have mentioned

First Drop Lap Bar Launch

This thing is ridiculous! Launch isn’t as intense as others but just starts to rattle towards the end of the flat. Amazing view at the top and then that drop is just insane. Nearly talked myself out of going on this when I was watching it from the grandstand but so glad I didn’t!

Airtimes Harness

Epic coaster! Lift hill seems to last forever. That first drop is awesome and rest of the ride is super fast and smooth with some great airtime!

Launch Intensity Too short

I think I was lucky on this as it didn’t feel as rough as I was expecting. Watched it before riding and through the turn over the lake I could see it rattling like mad! I was on the outer left seat but on front row and it wasn’t too bad. Launch is unbelievable and the one and only inversion is fantastic!

Theming Fun Dead spots

Before Cedar Fair owned Kings Island, movie production company Paramount owned it and several other current Cedar Fair parks. During that time, Paramount added many rides with theming related to their movies. One such ride was the Italian Job: Stunt Track attraction that went to three different parks. The second installation went to Kings Island. Now known as Backlot Stunt Coaster, these rides are all elite family coasters. They blend family thrills with incredible theming so well. This particular one is temperamental, I’ve noticed. The layout is great for a family coaster. Both launches are punchy, fun forces on the helix and even some hints of airtime throughout the layout. The indoor section is fun too. The theming is what changes, though. I’ve experienced this ride throughout different years. Sometimes the effects work and sometimes they don’t. My most recent experience had them working, so I enjoyed it similarly to the one at Kings Island. Even without the effects though, the ride still has great theming. Great family ride.
