Gives a good variety of ride experiences similarly to Cobra's Curse, and its target demographic is the same so that's very useful for a step-up coaster like this. Not as intense as I would like, but that's every family coaster.

Got several rides in during Dollywood's Halloween event, a couple of which were at night. Pacing is different but good (although this will very much depend on one's own taste), and the vertical lift coming at the end was unexpected but a good finale. First half is a bit underwhelming, but when I think about it more as a dark ride and less as a traditional coaster it makes a lot more sense. Special effects and theming are excellent as well. If the lines are reasonable (which they often aren't due to this being a Eurofighter), this is definitely worth a couple rides.

The first (and currently only) RMC in my credits shows me exactly why their coasters are adored by nearly everyone. Goliath has an incredible first drop, a smooth yet disorienting ride, and some amazing airtime and inversion moments. It is a little on the short side, but for the compact space Great America had for this ride it is quite impressive.
OUCH. I thought this might have been a better decision than some of the other Arrow/Vekoma loopers, but I was wrong. I got the credit, and I paid for ...
OUCH. I thought this might have been a better decision than some of the other Arrow/Vekoma loopers, but I was wrong. I got the credit, and I paid for it. It does have some decent theming, especially for a Six Flags coaster, but the restraints killed my shoulders, chest, and neck.
WOW. This has one of the best launches I've ever experienced. It's glassy smooth, intense, and has more than just a top hat. The restraints just being...
WOW. This has one of the best launches I've ever experienced. It's glassy smooth, intense, and has more than just a top hat. The restraints just being lap bars amplifies the psychological intensity and fear factor, which for some reason on this ride makes a huge difference. There's just something about being whipped right out of the station by a hydraulic launch that gets to me.
This is an excellent example of a ride lacking almost nothing. Raging Bull has incredible airtime moments and near-perfect drops, and the length and e...
This is an excellent example of a ride lacking almost nothing. Raging Bull has incredible airtime moments and near-perfect drops, and the length and ending do it many favors. The super-smooth experience and the clamshell restraints make this an excellent hyper-twister coaster. If anything could be better, I wish it had a bit more air, but it’s a minor complaint with a ride this well-rounded.

This is probably the smoothest B&M I’ve ever ridden. Wing coasters are a unique animal, and X-Flight has made me fall in love with them. It has an excellent layout that it takes its time getting through with that excellent wingover drop, some large inversions, and a great sequence of near-miss elements. It isn’t as forceful as some of B&M’s other models, but I love the smoothness and unique feel of the ride enough that it gets a higher spot on my list.
