Coaster reviews

Airtimes First Drop Fun

Great compact coaster, has everything in it. Great first drop,inversions,speed,airtime...Loved it!!!

Airtimes Masterpiece Ejectors Rattle

Great coaster, mid seats are the best, the outside seats have a rattle especialy in the back.

Airtimes Comfort Masterpiece

Great coaster with airtime,speed, height,... LOVED it!

Inversions Intensity Layout Rattle Discomfort Pointless

This is the only stand up I have ever ridden. My legs always feel like jelly when I get off. This ride really hurts and is super uncomfortable. It has the great layout, and the back to back dove loops are intense, but the fact that it’s a stand up really ruins it.

Airtimes Hangtime Too short Harness Discomfort

I’m really not a fan of the Sky Rocket II’s. I find them really boring. Those Comfort Collars were just annoying.

Location Fun Smoothness Harness Airtimes Dead spots

Great Coaster, definitely one of my favorites simply because of how fun it is. Great capacity, and is glossy smooth. My only issues are the pointless over-the-shoulder harnesses and the lack of airtime. The only real airtime moment is on the second drop. But overall, I did really enjoy the ride.

First Drop Lap Bar Inversions

That first drop was amazing. It provides great ejector and you feel like you’re getting punched in the stomach by Mike Tyson, and it feels amazing. The Negative-G Stall Loop was fun, and the Immelman right after was also great, providing, ironically, the only real moment of hangtime in the entire ride.The Corkscrew and Cutback right after was kinda forgettable. The airtime hill after provided amazing ejector, and I probably wouldn’t have noticed the Cobra Roll unless it was pointed out to me. The ride has a great setting, I love that area. And at night, Hangtime looks beautiful with its light package.

Tear it down! Pointless Dead spots

This is up there for worst wooden coaster ever. It’s closed a lot. The queue always moves painfully slow, because the ride operators always seem to take literally 5 minutes preparing each train. There is no air time, and there are no ejectors. It isn’t very fast. It isn’t very tall. When you’re done, you get to wait another 3-5 minutes, while the operators prep the train in front of you. I will say it is a good intro coaster for 48” kids, but other than that, grizzly has nothing going for it. This coaster is just all-around bad, but I will continue riding it, because my 7 year old likes it.

Comfort Harness Ejectors Too short Theming Capacity

Rode it twice. Amazing in the front with your hands up. Sitting in seat 6 with my hands secure was kind of underwhelming. It’s a good, intense ride with some nice inversions. The coaster itself is short, exhilarating, and sweet.

Capacity Pace Intensity

After the re-track, this ride is still extremely intense, but it’s definitely a little less uncomfortable. For me, riding Gold Striker at night is up there for best ever night ride on a coaster. It’s just so relentless in the dark. 5 stars. With the news that Great America is closing, I’m more emotionally attached to it, because I know it’s temporary. That probably helps it’s ranking too. Ride it while you can, ride after dark when you can, and the back is the best!
