I used to think that SLCs weren't so bad thanks to my experience riding Ednor L'Attaque at LaRonde, 3 years after its opening when it ran relatively smooth. Years later, However... riding flight deck... this ride DESTROYS the cake for being one of the worst inverted coasters I've ever ridden in my life to the point where I genuinely think it's hilarious! I'M NOT KIDDING!! THIS IS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST ROLLERCOASTERS I'VE EVER SEEN OR BEEN ON 😭 (and honestly this is how I generally feel about most SLCs) This thing feels so rugged and out of place now after it's 12 years of operation! Like meeting a weird Uncle that only peaked in his High-school heydays back in the 90s and NOT EVER letting go of it since then. This Ride has never been given a LICK of care from the park staff to where the maintenance team probably thinks "what's the point..." EVERY TIME they have to fix the damn thing!! 😭This Ride used to be an ICON, but now it's the only ride in the park that actually feels like it wants to go into retirement, while making everybody else feel that way coming off of the ride at the same time.
But with all that said and done, there are some positives to it (you can make a G-force pun out of that, if you're a silly nerd 🤓). SLC layouts are probably one of the best compact inverted coaster layouts out there, and the wave turn into the side winder is the best moment of the ride. These rides can actually be really fun if the parks that own them, actually took the time into refurbishing the ride into something re-rideable for everyone. Overall, it's a travesty but a kind of funny one at that... like your uncle!

Nothing good comes from this ride... if you ride it once for the first time you'd probably think "Oh that wasn't too bad!" until you make the dumb decision on riding it the second time... that's where you finally get to experience the pure agony that is this hunk of Zamperla. An Absolute Travesty of a ride, and I'm super thankful it's finally getting tarnished.

my god... this has got to be one of most intense B&M's in Canada. The way it Zip, Zap, Zops through its inversions is breathtaking and the speed and G-forces it pulled was relentless, especially during the hot summer seasons! I need to ride more of these bat clones!

Call me Crazy, but this was my first Favorite coaster when I was 14 back in 2013, I was too afraid of the B&Ms for some reason so I thought this ride was bearable, even tho I almost got whiplashed at the start of the Rollover due to the intense *5.6 G-forces, However, I didn't mind it at all and went straight back on (i was an odd child). I did like the view over the lake, really nice touch! (Update: it's gone now and it looks ugly now...) however, it WAS a fun ride!
This was the first tall rollercoaster I've ever ridden back then and WOW!

This was the first tall rollercoaster I've ever ridden back then and WOW!
I've ridden other B&M hypers now, but I have a soft spot for this ride! It may not be the tallest or fastest of the bunch, but Its floater hills hit every time, and It felt decently paced (I fully recommend the front row and back rows for a good Flojector extravaganza)!
If you're a fan of Airtime Hills, this ride is a GOLD mine, as this ride is what made me the enthusiast that I am today!
Though, the operations for this we're very lacklustre...

Rode this With and Without PTC Trains but oh man what a weird ride... idk how it rides now but I'm pretty sure it might have gotten worse over time. This ride needs an RMC surgery Asap! (Update: Not what I meant when I said it needed RMC surgery!!! I MEANT THE ENTIRE THING Not JUST the damn DROP!!! FOR REAL???)

This was my first inverting roller coaster before I was afraid of rollercoasters! When I was a kid this was the first coaster I'd go on to get myself prepared for the bigger stuff. Good times!
