Coaster reviews

Inversions Intensity Layout Headbanging Capacity Harness

Maverick was an incredible coaster, but it has its downsides. Let's start with the good. I still cant quite fathom how intense Maverick was. The launched hill was intense, and I don't forget the feeling of that 95° drop. The inversions are incredible at Maverick's speed. And the whip you get form those sharp turns is insane. Now, the downsides. The capacity is horrendous. I had to wait in line for 2.5 hours while seeing trains with 1-2 empty seats. Next, the harness (aka Intamin Comfort Collars). The harness causes a lot of discomfort, as the bars across your chest aren't very soft, causing that discomfort. And the final con, the Headbanging. The headbanging causes incredible discomfort, partially because of the restraints and their own discomfort. This factor caused me a headache and I had to sit out of most of the rides for the rest of the day. Overall, Maverick is a fast paced intense coaster with lots of fun, but it does have its bad elements to it.
