Coaster reviews

Theming Intensity Smoothness Too short Intensity

Would be a fantastic ride with great theming (especially the theming right before the lift hill), but it has 2 significant flaws: A. it's absolutely too short (which can be somewhat ignored if you're there on an empty day and can just re-ride without leaving the station). B: the positive g forces during the helix around the sky fly are simply too much of a good thing, it's always a 5 second grey out for me (regardless of seat) and was the only thing preventing me from staying in my seat for more than 3 re-rides. By the way, the left wing is noticeably better/more intense than the right wing.

Capacity Fun Duration

The Wingover drop might be one of the best starts to any coaster I've been on. This has big, graceful elements and uses its speed so much better than Wild Eagle. The head chopper is a lovely bonus, and puts it over the edge into the elite category. If only Carowinds wasn't so close to Dollywood, and even then I'd still say that Six Flags needs to give them something of this fashion. This is a must-ride at Cedar Point, and a top 25 coaster.

Capacity Headbanging Harness Dead spots

I seriously hope this is better midday. I got a ride ~30 minutes after park opening, and it was disappointing. My other inverts are the Bat clone at Six Flags Over Georgia & Afterburn, and comparatively, this sucked. It had a decent intensity, and a good loop, but the cobra roll and everything after just didn't hit for me. Hopefully I'll get back up there again and get all the way in the back. Cedar Point would do good to give this the Nemesis treatment, and slap whatever wheels Over Georgia uses on it. I'll see if it hits harder in the future.

Capacity Intensity Layout Harness

This is the reason I like B&M stand-ups. This has a good supporting layout for Over Georgia. It can handle a decent number of people, and is positioned at the front of the park to suck up opening crowds. It's a great ride, while not elite, but has good forces and you can usually lap it 3-4 times in 45 minutes. The standup harness is what it is, though it isn't the most comfortable; but it makes the positives a bit more intense, which I enjoy.

Intensity Discomfort Tear it down!

I've ridden this a few times, but I stopped in 2022, seeing as the lift hill (as of my last visit in 2023) is still missing multiple drive tires. It has some pretty good laterals for a family/kiddie coaster. This is janky as I'll get out, and you slam into the drive tires that pull you into the station horribly awkwardly. If you're trying to move your kid into coasters, this is good. Otherwise, just do it for the credit.

Comfort Fun Duration Harness Layout

This is a nice and relaxing ride its very calm and the drop its small but picks up quite a lot of speed and the helix at the end is very fun as you get a view of the carpark it would be funny if you caught someone robbing your car from there unless they actually succeed that is but this is a very fun rollercoaster.Although I watch a lot of Digital dan and I think he is right in saying that it really doesnt fit into the area that surrounds it they should have a retheme to fit it into the Phalanx maybe Nemesis Reborn Reborn (but flying).Ha Ha!This ride may benefit from a jet wash and the tunnel at the start could use some theming but apart from that this coaster is amazing!Also if you read this Digital Dan can I please have a shoutout!

Nice surprise! Launch Fun Too short Layout

This is in my opinion the best ride at Alton Towers I havent gone on Nemesis Reborn yet so that may top it but this is truly amazing the launch feels incredibly fast and is better than Velocicoaster and Rock'n'roller coaster at disneyland in my opinion this is one of my favourite coasters in the world keep it up Alton towers

Inversions Masterpiece Layout

I really enjoy this ride it is amazing and the first little surprise when you leave the station is arguably the best part of the ride I really like the satisfication of watching it fly by and the staffordshire knot is very cool this is one of the best rides in the UK

Airtimes Intensity Duration Headbanging

I personally think this is probably 3rd or 4th best at the park its theming is outstanding so is the airtime but I dont think its that smooth and some could say well yeah duh its a woodie but its quite rattly especially at the first pre drop out of the station and the lift itself but its quite a good ride anyway definetely a must when visiting alton towers.

Theming Nice surprise! Launch Too short Capacity

I quite enjoy Mandrill Mayhem as it's a quite fun ride. It will usually have the lowest queue time in the park for rollercoasters but it has a bad capacity for a park with an already low capacity. I do like the backwards car on the end and the theming is amazing.
