Coaster reviews

Inversions Location Layout

Viper is one of my favorite Arrow coasters. It's relatively smooth, well paced, and the plot of land it sits on is pretty. The inversions are great, the final helix is excellent, and the coaster feels like a classic. I do hope this ride sticks around.

Pace Fun Layout Too short

Tantrum is my favorite Gerstlauer coaster I've yet ridden. Though I've ridden few, I favor this over Dare Devil Dive. It is better paced without any boring moments, and is in a more fitting park for its capacity. An excellent first drop starts off a wonderfully twisty layout that I honestly barely remember. It's so twisted and tangled up in on itself that the experience is constant and so much fun. The restraints are comfy, and the ride is butter smooth. Though it is short, it's also sweet and an excellent addition to the park that I hope stays around under the Six Flags banner.

Airtimes Lap Bar Location Discomfort

There are some janky moments, namely the twisted airtime hill near the end gives some uncomfortable jarring forces. But otherwise I cannot find flaw in this ride. A huge, well profiled first drop. A forceful first turn, a first helix with great positives, a second helix with good laterals, and airtime that gets better as the ride goes on. We're even treated to some high speed straightaways over the water, and excellent intamin T-bar restraints. This is a great ride that I think needs more recognition.

Airtimes Pace Layout Rattle

Predator took me by surprise, and is clearly one of Dinn's best efforts. I think that all it needs is better maintenance and it's a sleeper hit. Well paced with good airtime in the front. Plus it has a varied, creative, and non redundant layout, with a nice location by the water. If this got RMCed we'd lose a pretty great woodie, so I hope it sticks around.

Location Pace Ejectors Rattle

I found that this very long, intense wooden coaster took at toll on me with its wooden feel after only one ride. Otherwise, it's amazing. Constant airtime throughout the ride, and overwhelmingly intense pacing.

Airtimes Location Duration Discomfort

I think all this ride needs to be a world class coaster is new trains. If Steel Dragon 2000 can have clamshells, Steel Eel should too. The trains on this ride aren't great. They feel plastic and cheap, and there's a terribly placed knob between the legs. But for the coaster, it's phenomenal. Excellent airtime and laterals, good pacing, and a wonderful location.

Theming Launch Fun

This is simply an excellent family coaster that makes you actually feel like a Jet Ski. Smooth, twisty, well themed, pretty, and very fun.

Inversions Pace Intensity

I have a real soft spot for this Batman clone because of how it's nowhere near a parking lot, which I really appreciate. Plus the loose shark theme I find really dope, in addition to me being a huge fan of the Batman layout and intensity.

Inversions Pace Ejectors Harness Discomfort

Wonder Woman isn't really my cup of tea, though I see the appeal. The pacing feels too fast and too intense, it doesn't even feel like a real roller coaster as much as a giant K'nex model. The vests don't help much either. Still a very fun ride, I'll ride it repeatedly for sure, but it's not top list material for me.

Theming Layout

Like if Windstorm at Old Town was smooth and pitch black, which is actually quite fun and great for a rainy day.

Theming Location Fun

I can definitely see why this coaster type became popular. The theming is great, the final drop is fun, and the layout is... unique, to say the least.

Launch Fun Intensity Theming

Theming isn't as good as Six Flags St. Louis, and the color and location isn't as pretty, but on the surface it's still a fun and forceful ride with a great launch.

Lap Bar Location Rattle Dead spots

Not a very forceful ride at all, kinda rough. But it's still a fun, pretty ride with a classic feel, if feeling out of place in the park.

First Drop Inversions Harness Capacity

Impulse I find very underrated. Aside from the vibration in the final helix, the ride is smooth. The first drop is awesome, the inversions are great with some hangtime, and the layout is well paced. Plus the lap bar is as comfy as a B&M clamshell.

Nice surprise! Fun Smoothness

This coaster is incredibly unique and a must ride for anyone who is interested in coasters. Smooth, with great swinging turns and a legendary backstory.

Airtimes Location Fun

One of the best junior coasters in the world, carrying on the legacy of High Speed Thrill Coaster.

Airtimes Fun Harness

If you think your local hyper coaster makes you feel like flying, wait till you ride Phoenix. The buzz bars and lack of seatbelts make you fly out of your seat on every hill, and the airtime gets better with each hill. Plus, the coaster is butter smooth. That and the setting at the back of the park by the forest makes this coaster a blast for all ages, the tall and the small.

Theming Nice surprise!

This is the best dark ride I've ever ridden outside of Orlando. The theming is excellent, the atmosphere is outstanding, and it was a huge surprise for someone with no knowledge of the ride.

Intensity

Probably the worst version of Superman UF. Very very meh.

First Drop

Meh. The first drop is a big back row meme but other than that, it's an excellent ride when it starts raining.

Location Fun Discomfort

These Arrow Mine Trains really need new trains that accommodate people other than small children. Otherwise it's a fun ride through the forest with a pretty finale over the water.

Lap Bar Fun Layout Rattle

A timeless classic that desperately needs some maintenance before the RMC fanboys start clamoring for its closure.

Layout Theming Capacity Discomfort

Better than Nighthawk but that's not saying much. A worthy sacrifice for a giga.

Location Rattle Headbanging Harness

Nice swampy location, but it's still an awful old Vekoma.

Rattle Headbanging Harness

Ugly boring and unpleasant.

Intensity Smoothness Discomfort Layout

Invertigo is definitely the best version of the Boomerang, but even when it's smooth and forceful it's nothing to write home about.

Theming Inversions Launch Discomfort Dead spots

Though Premier's trains are a tight fit and the MCBR hits very unreasonably hard, this is still a fun coaster. It's like an amalgamation of Orlando's indoor coasters. Aerosmith's launch and inversions, Mummy's turns and pacing, and Space Mountain's theming. I'm fond of Premier's intense twisty layouts and I'm happy about their modern comeback.

Airtimes Fun Smoothness

I'm quite fond of E&F Miler's oval shaped layout. It's short, sweet, and it has airtime. I find myself riding this whenever I'm at Fun Spot.

Location Fun Smoothness

I was lucky enough to get to ride this when I was in elementary school when I was still little, and I rode it with my best friend. It's smooth, fun, and scenic, and the trains sway excellently.

Theming Fun Duration

This is far and away the best junior coaster in Florida. It has many helices and dips, and is excellently themed with the beautiful queue and Buckbeak animatronic.
