What struck me about this ride beyond the miserable operation procedure was how high quality it feels as a product. The lap bar has a nice tactile feel as you pull it down, the lift whisks the car up pretty fast, and it may just be the smoothest wild mouse coaster I’ve done. I really hope these Arrow mice stick around!

A ride in the back row lends some bite to the drops at the cost of an absolutely debilitating tracking phenomenon that the word “rattle” doesn’t begin to describe.

I’d always wanted to ride an impulse with the holding brake, and now that I’ve gotten to, it doesn’t disappoint in the slightest. I can totally see why this ride might not be someone’s cup of tea, but I think it’s a perfect example of the “why would they build that” insanity of early Intamin coasters. The way the ride snatches the train in midair and the LIMs start screaming is absolutely hilarious, on top of being a pretty frightening sensation.

The first drop and airtime hill make you think this ride is going to be superb, and then it does nothing with the rest of its long layout. It meanders through a giant turnaround, trims itself to death, and gives what can best be described as “almost-airtime” on the return run of hills. The only thing besides the amazing first two elements that I actually liked was the tunnel at the end, and while there wasn’t much that I actively disliked on the ride, there’s just so much nothing.

Renegade would be my favorite GCI if it weren’t uncomfortably rough. It has a certain aggression about it that other GCIs just don’t have, and airtime...

Renegade would be my favorite GCI if it weren’t uncomfortably rough. It has a certain aggression about it that other GCIs just don’t have, and airtime that caught me way off guard in its strength.

This ride is so pleasant! It doesn’t do much in terms of forces, but it provides a visual spectacle soaring over the mall’s pathways and has an amazing interaction with the log flume on the second lift.
