First Drop Inversions Location Headbanging Disappointing! Dead spots
Incredibly overrated. Not even close to the best invert. Not that intense pretty rattly and rough and just not that good.

First Drop Launch Masterpiece Harness
The first drop is a nice surprise and the second launch is phenomenal. The ride is so whippy and airtime filled it just has bad restraints.
-
Pace Smoothness Disappointing! Dead spots Intensity
I was just so disappointed with this. I rode it on a blazing hot summer day and it wasn’t that intense, whippy, or airtime filled plus the trains are uncomfortable as heck.
-
First Drop Masterpiece Intensity Rattle
The ride is amazing with all of the speed and airtime plus great forces and comfortable trains.
-
Airtimes Inversions Pace Discomfort Dead spots
Very solid small scale hybrid with great inversions in the insane arcade roll and hangtime filled stall. The outerbank is amazing as is the double up. Although the first drop and raven truss dive are lackluster. Plus the trains are uncomfortable.
-
Nice surprise! Comfort Launch Too short
The ride is so underrated and has great airtime, intensity, launch, smoothness, trains, and theming.
-
Theming Lap Bar Launch Rattle Disappointing! Pointless
The ride is so disappointing. It has no forces at all and is so rattle for being brand new. Although the theming is good plus the launch is pretty punchy and the trains are good.

Duration Rattle Headbanging Tear it down!
The ride is terribly rough with no intensity or really any redeeming qualities except the last tunnel and corkscrew have good whip.
-
Airtimes Nice surprise! Intensity Theming Pointless Reliability
The ride has amazing ejector airtime and forces throughout plus whip and a punchy launch. The jumping feature was a nice surprise and I find the restraints and seats comfortable. The ride does rattle slightly and is sometimes a little temperamental plus the theming is a little lack luster.

First Drop Fun Intensity Rattle Discomfort
While not the best B&M flyer it is amazing. The pretzel loop is stupid intense and the helixes have good power. The drop off the midcourse and the first drop have airtime and whip plus a nice setting throughout the ride.
-
Airtimes Comfort Pace
The ride is very good. With sustained ejector on hot afternoon rides and whippy turns. The ending is actually solid and I find the ride to be a little overrated but i still love it. The trains are comfortable and the queue theming is decent.
-
Theming Comfort Fun Capacity Disappointing! Reliability
The ride is very fun and unique. It has teh elevator lift and when the trains are off balance the spinning is great. The ride rattles sometimes but is pretty forceful and fun. It’s not worth the wait it sometimes gets and breaks a lot though.
-
Launch Intensity Hangtime Rattle Capacity Harness
The ride has good g-forces and hangtime and a punchy launch. But its short, rough, and the trains are horrendous.
-
Launch Pace Fun Rattle Harness
This was my first coaster credit and i absolutely love this ride. The launches are punchy and there’s good forces in the valleys. The roll has good hangtime and the serpentine portion over the water is very fun and whippy. There’s some good airtime on the third launch hill and the wind catcher tower. The ride can have a rattle some days but be glass smooth others. The OTSRs are just pointless though.

Location Rattle Headbanging Pointless
Kumba just sucks. The ride is rattly and pointless plus it just bangs your head the whole time. It’s not fun or good at all.
-
Airtimes First Drop Intensity Rattle Too short Dead spots
Sheikra is a great dive coaster that has an amazing first drop with great airtime and a forceful pullout into a floaty inversion. Then a power turn into the midcourse with a great vertical drop off the midcourse into a tunnel before a floaty turn into the splash down and a final helix. The midcourse hits a little hard and the floaty turn and helix don’t do much plus the helix rattle pretty bad but the ride is short but very sweet.
-
Comfort Pace Fun Rattle Too short Capacity
The ride is a fun and poppy family coaster. The first drop is whippy and the turns have some hangtime as well as forces in the helixes. The twisted hills both have good whip and one has a small pop. The theming is pretty mediocre and the trains are comfortable. The ride rattles not awfully but isn’t bad. It’s a little short but the capacity is awful.
-
Rattle Discomfort Pointless
This ride was just bad there was no redeeming factors so glad its gone.
-
Nice surprise! Fun Capacity Discomfort
This was my first coaster so it has a special place in my heart. I actually noticed a nice ejector pop during the ride in its later years. The switchbacks are fun but uncomfortable. It’s not an awful wild mouse.
-
First Drop Inversions Intensity Capacity Harness
The ride is a spectacular RMC hybrid. The first drop is phenomenal and the outerbank is amazing. The death roll is the second best inversion behind Velocicoaster’s and the outerbanked wave turn is has amazing sideways airtime. The stall has good hangtime and the small camelback near the end has strong, sustained floater. The ride is insane I just can’t justify rating it as high as others.
-
Theming Nice surprise! Comfort Theming Dead spots
The ride is a classic old school dark ride coaster. It’s a lot of fun with a surprise splashdown at the end. But the ride is very tame and feels dead. The theming is good but not great and there is no onride audio. I look forward to riding the new one.
-
First Drop Comfort Masterpiece
I was absolutely blown away the first time I rode this. The trains are super comfortable and unique because of their spinning mechanism. The first drop straight out of the station plus the hangtime filled dive loop. The vertical loop has great hangtime and the twisted hill is absolutely insane but has some chop to it depending upon which way the car is facing. The helix close to the hill has good forces and the corkscrew has amazing whip plus the sharp bunny hop into the second launch. The valleys have good forces and the spinning just adds odd sensations. I also don’t find the launches to be as weak as most say.
-
Launch Pace Intensity Rattle Theming Harness
The ride paces incredibly well with very whippy elements and intense valleys. The first launch is super punchy and the helix around the launch is greatly intense. The corkscrew into the trench and vertical loop are all insane and the ride is just great. But it can be rattly on some days and pretty smooth on others. The theming isn’t as high especially in the back half as other Universal coasters but the theming in the first half is pretty good and the trains are really cool looking.

Jeremiah R. 13 days agoTheming Layout Duration Harness Reliability
The ride is absolutely phenomenal. It’s definitely not a family coaster and actually has pretty good forces in especially in the switchbacks over the lake. The theming is also amazing and would be great without it. The drop track and reverse spike are very cool and unique elements as well. The trains have been changed and are a little more uncomfortable and restrictive. The launches are also absolutely amazing and punchy its just a little uncomfortable.

Theming Masterpiece Layout
This ride is just phenomenal. It perfectly combines airtime and laterals plus great inversions. The mosasaurus roll is perfect and the top hat is amazing. The first half has the amazing twister part and the second half is all power. The theming is phenomenal but the ride would excel even when taken out of the theming. The restraints are phenomenal and the ride is just amazing especially at night. I’ve ridden this 160 times and counting and still aren’t bored with it.

First Drop Intensity Duration Harness Disappointing! Layout
The ride is incredibly overrated. The first half is honestly elite with a great first drop and the massive camelbacks as well as the sequence around the lift. But after the double up after the midcourse the ride is just so repetitive. It’s good but not as good as most say.
