Talon is a very fun, smooth experience, and the blend of forces on the different elements was awesome. The inversions, especially the zero-g roll, were fun and intense, and while not my favorite at Dorney Park, this was overall a great ride.

It is a very intense and aggressive ride, and all of the inversions hit. The starting helix and drop are awesome and unique. This invert is underrated and really packs a punch. It is very fast-paced, and the only thing that could be better is its short length.

The first drop is great, and the trains are comfortable and elevate the ride experience. The inversions and hangtime are also great, especially the last inversion. It gives great hangtime. The lines were very long and the ride was short, but overall, the coaster is great and Zierer's take on a Eurofighter definitely turned out well.

This is by far the best Big Thunder Mountain Railroad in the world. The theming, rockwork, and whole island in general were very cool and added to the experience. The final tunnel goes on forever in complete darkness, and the whole layout is a blast. My only complaint is that sometimes it tries to give you airtime, but it doesn't. It might just be that I got a morning ride, though.

The drop is spectacular, and the inversions are fun and floaty. The theming and soundtrack are cool too. The harness could have been better, but to me, it is pretty smooth. It is also too short, and its layout could have offered a little more in some places.

Even though the drop could be better, the airtime is very fun and it has lots of it. The helix provides great sustained forces, and the airtime hill coming into the midcourse is powerful. The layout is very basic, but the duration and the airtime make up for it. Overall, it is a very fun and good ride.

The overall layout is amazing, and all the inversions hit. It is super fun, and the drop is great. The only things I don't like are the harness and its length.

Knoebels is my home park, and Phoenix is my most ridden rollercoaster. The airtime with only a lap bar is nuts, and I always coming off of this ride laughing. One of the best coasters ever.

The spikes give great weightlessness, and the theming is charming. Overall, a great ride. The capacity was bad, and it was too short, though. The over-the-shoulder restraints were very bulky, too. Although it's not perfect, the ride is still super fun.

The upwards launch is great, and the inversions, especially the corkscrew over Tie Fighters, are awesome. It is intense and very fun, but it does have a significant rattle and bad over-the-shoulder restraints. There are also many dead spots within the layout, with drawn-out turns that lack force. The theming is inconsistent across the different parts, as well.

The launch is good, and the spikes provide great weightlessness, especially the back spike. It is an enjoyable ride, but as with all Intamin impulses,...

The launch is good, and the spikes provide great weightlessness, especially the back spike. It is an enjoyable ride, but as with all Intamin impulses, it is too short, and the layout is very basic.

I love launches, and this is one of them. The loop after the launch and the corkscrew are very intense and cool. The restraints were very uncomfortable, and my head got bounced around like a pinball, though. It also had a noticeable rattle. Overall, fun and intense, but rough and uncomfortable.

It has a good first drop and some fun laterals. The breaks hit very hard, though, and it is pretty uncomfortable. It is still a fun ride with some charm.

The first drop is amazing, and the first hill gives amazing floater. It is too short for a hyper coaster, and the second half is weaker, but it is still great. The clamshell restraints are some of the best, and the airtime is fun and sustained.

The train is too big for the layout, so in the back row, part of the train is going up one hill, and the other part is going down the other. It is a crazy sensation that makes you feel like you're going to fall out. Wierd, but fun kiddie coaster. It did have a rattle, though. Pretty intense too for a kiddie coaster. Funny, but still a kiddie coaster.

The location in the woods is good, but it mostly just meanders around and does nothing. It is also over before you know it. The helix could be good if it were taken at a decent speed.

The drops are very good, and it is intense. It is very uncomfortable, and the harness is bad. This was the first time I felt sick on a rollercoaster. My first Vekoma boomerang, and hopefully my last. (probably going to ride more for the credits)

Standard wild mouse, the drops at the end are fun. The hairpin turns are great near-miss elements too. Even though it is janky and uncomfortable like all wild mice. If you get over that, it is a fun ride. Has a good view of Wildcat's Revenge too.

This is a top-tier Maurer spinner for me. The theming is great, especially in the queue line, and it offers some nice forces, the drops are pretty good, and it is overall very fun. Disney lines and the capacity of a Maurer spinner together make this line go on forever.

I got multiple rides on this 100-year-old woodie, and I was very surprised by it. I recommend riding in it when the sun is out in the back row because it is intense and very fun for its size. The back row does have a significant rattle, but the intensity makes it worth it. The airtime is also pretty solid too.

I love racing coasters, and this one has many cool racing elements. It has a great first drop and maintains a good pace throughout the layout. It is very rough, though, and does not do much in the layout. It does not provide airtime and banks on the fact that it races. Although it has its flaws, it is still a fun ride.

I love racing coasters, and this one has many cool racing elements. It has a great first drop and maintains a good pace throughout the layout. It is very rough, though, and does not do much in the layout. It does not provide airtime and banks on the fact that it races. Although it has its flaws, it is still a fun ride. I have this side ranked higher because I one on this side and the drop is slightly better.

This classic woodie is a very fun ride, and it gives great floater airtime. They got rid of buzz bars when I was there, but it still gives good airtime. I have no complaints, just a solid ride.

The jojo roll at the start gives great hangtime, and the overall layout is pretty good. Usually, I don't complain about a rattle, but this one has a very noticeable one that takes away from the ride. The inversions and hangtime are still great, no matter how rough it is.
