Coaster reviews

Kiddie coaster.

Nice surprise! Comfort Fun

I expected a run of the mill family coaster, but was blown away by just how fun it turned out to be! Vekoma really knows how to profile track nowadays

Airtimes First Drop Layout Rattle

Excellent, fun-thrilled ride! Just a little bit rough.

Its got some nice plants and a couple cool bugs.

Lap Bar Fun

A good fun ride and a nice addition! Perfect for younger thrillseekers, and a good stepping stone before the park's biggest ride, SX360 (pendulum ride).

Fun Rattle Headbanging Layout

Not quite terrible. If you keep your head forward and brace, you can usually prevent head banging. Layout is weak, fair for a kiddie coaster, but kinda rough for one too. Alright for a round every time you're at the park though.

Fun Discomfort

It's ok. The ride is surprisingly still quite smooth, although the trains are far from comfortable. The area is quite bland looking. The launch isn't weak but isn't strong, the whip is there but not strong, there's kind of a sense of speed... just go to Sea World and ride Jet Rescue, this is just a worse version of that ride. Still a good bit of fun if you're at Dreamworld, the lines usually aren't too long.

Pace Fun Intensity Discomfort

An intense and rapid-fire ride, with vest restraints now so no head-banging. I've a high rattle tolerance, so people more prone to roughness may enjoy less, but the intensity, especially in the inversions, makes the rattle quite bearable.

Airtimes Harness Smoothness

A fantastic coaster, the second two of the three launches really have a punch, the tail spike is super intense (and a little rough in the pullup), and the rest of the ride is super smooth and intense. The drop off the midcourse gives some excellent ejector, and the three rolls all deliver on whip! The trains have a cool, sleek design as well.

Location Fun

As a family ride, very fun! As with everything at this park, spectacular views of the Harbour. Ride in the back for a sizeable amount of floater on the first drop. Good fun for all ages.

Location Harness Rattle

A zippy, fun ride. While not too short, it’s also not a long ride, but even with the 7 seater trains it didn’t get a super long line (I did visit on a wet day though, so maybe lower crowds than normal). The launches, loop, bunny hill, and corkscrew each give a taste of some different forces, which leads to a ride that has a little bit of everything. The best part is the view though; getting thrown over a non-inverting loop while looking at the Sydney Harbour Bridge is certainly unique. The only real downside is the rattle, which isn’t too bad the first time, but can make marathoning it a pain; a pity, since one ride doesn’t really feel like enough. Fortunately no head-banging thanks to over-the-head lap bars. Overall, a thrilling and enjoyable ride experience that’s a little on the rougher side.

Airtimes Masterpiece Intensity

Incredible. One of the few coasters in this country that feels long enough. Every moment from beginning to end is masterfully (and smoothly!) constructed. The restraints are very comfortable, leaving the upper body free while still feeling perfectly safe. And it manages to be thrilling without being uber-intense. Solid 5 stars.

First Drop Ejectors Hangtime Inversions Discomfort

This ride is terrific fun, very enjoyable. The main drop has nice ejector, the airtime hill also has great ejector and a headchopper, and the dive loop has hangtime. Lots of positive G's too. Quite shaky which can lead to headbanging, but I rode it eight times and wasn't too bad off. Only other negative is that it's kinda short. Also spoiler alert: The hidden drop and roll in the dark is super fun, even when you know its coming you can't see it coming. Really nice hangtime.
