Coaster reviews

First Drop Capacity
honestly not awful. the first drop has a nice kick in the back. it's smooth, and has a fresh paint job. very shiny.

Fun Intensity Duration Rattle
my favorite mack bobsled, but the bar is low. pulls decent forces and lasts a while.
-
Airtimes Comfort Layout
perfect ride. there are almost no moments that don't hit. seriously everything about this is amazing. my only complaint is i wish i got to ride it more!!!
-
Airtimes Fun Duration
wow! i had heard some not great things about how it was running this year, so i went in with low expectations. after riding in the backwards seat, i was thoroughly impressed! so many fun pops of air, and the layout just keeps going. excellent trains too.
-
it's fine. inoffensive. they cycled an empty train with the restraints up, which was funny. also, for some reason my train specifically only got one lap instead of 2. weird.

Fun Duration Rattle Dead spots
good family coaster! didn't do as much for me as firechaser express did, and it had a noticeable rattle throughout. good long ride, and the launch out of the station is nice.
-
Airtimes First Drop Inversions Intensity
very good b&m invert, but very different from any of the other ones i've done. there is zero whip in any seat, but it has a few solid pops of air, which i haven'r experienced on any other b&m invert. i like alpengeist and afterburn more, but top 3 invert is high praise nonetheless.

this isn't a coaster.

Airtimes Pace
good solid gci. drop is good in the back, everything else is good in the front. everything up until the end is taken quickly, but it does lose steam quicker than other gcis.

Airtimes Dead spots
really didn't do a whole lot until the second half. after the midcourse, though is some of the strongest air on a b&m.

Fun Rattle Discomfort Dead spots
this ride is silly and dumb. it's definitely possible to have fun on this with the right people, but the actual ride leaves a lot to be desired. i enjoyed myself, but i can't reasonably rate it higher than 2.5 stars.
-
Theming Nice surprise! Smoothness
combines the good parts of space mountain and rock 'n' roller coaster. i liked this a lot more than i was expecting to.
-
Inversions Comfort Launch Dead spots
the inversions are fun, especially the last one. it just doesn't do a lot other than that.
-
Theming
good silly kiddie coaster. no issues of uncomfortability here. doesn't do a lot, but that's by design.
-
Theming Fun Smoothness
Very fun B&M invert. Almost no whip, but lots of good interaction with the terrain.
-
Theming Masterpiece Smoothness Dead spots
The ride system on this thing is mind blowing. What Vekoma did to bring the flying coaster into the 2020s is incredible. I was in total awe of the trains the whole time. The coaster section in a vacuum is just ok, but the theming and ride system elevate it.
-
Theming Lap Bar Launch Dead spots
One of the most picturesque rides ever. Beautiful on and off ride. Great speed on the second launch, and that LSM noise is magical. I like the forces in a few spots, but that’s not what makes it this good. Weaving in and out of that track is an experience I have yet to find on any other ride.
-
Airtimes First Drop Ejectors Rattle Capacity Reliability
This ride is awesome. No other coaster has this sheer quantity of good ejector. Over every hill, there’s sustained strong air. I do wish it had a little more of that classic Intamin intensity, which you can feel on the first drop and s-hill. There’s a pretty bad rattle in wheel seats, but odd numbered rows are glass smooth. Row 13 left seat is the way to go for this ride.
-
Airtimes Launch Harness Rattle Too short
powerful lsm launch sustained for a long time. very good. i like the airtime at the top of the top hat. i don't like the brakes, and the launch has a rattle.
-
Smoothness Discomfort Pointless Dead spots
such a nothing ride. they let me ride when i was above the height limit, which was cool of them.
-
Layout Rattle Discomfort Pointless
i love how the trains turn and face each other. other than that, zzzzz. better than blue tho.

Airtimes First Drop Comfort Dead spots
this is for sure the best v-train hyper, and the third best b&m hyper behind mako and fury. there is a mind-blowing speed hill in the middle of the layout that i had no idea about and i was blown away. seriously great ride. my only issue is the ride dies at the midcourse brakes. i wish it would keep its momentum after that.
-
Launch Pace Intensity Too short Capacity Harness
wow. i was not expecting to like this as much as i did, but the moment that launch kicked, i knew i was in for a treat. obviously the launch is the highlight, but there's a great air moment after the launch, and the layout keeps the pace nicely. the ride ends super quickly, but so does almost every other hydraulic launch coaster. i like formula rossa's launch better, but this is my favorite ride with a hydraulic launch. the harnesses are bad, but not as bad as cheetah hunt's or kingda ka's. if you don't mind a ride that's a bit rough around the edges, you'll love this thing to bits.
-
Inversions Pace Fun Discomfort
reminded me of kumba more than hulk, which is a very good thing. the zero g roll is fantastic. it has a little bite to it, but not much more than any other classic b&m. it made me happy.
-
Fun Duration Discomfort Dead spots
silly little mine train. i enjoyed myself, but was a little bored. don't expect any forces at all.
