Obra maestra Ejectors Torta Demasiado corto Layout

The ride kinda blows; but it's literally one of the most important coasters ever built, the first Arrow Corkscrew. This ride may be relocated, but it's still the same coaster that blew minds at Knott's in 1975 when it opened as the first modern inverting roller coaster. If you made the drive to this park, you might as well pay your respects and feel the history on the first Corkscrew. Also if you sit in the very back you get some nice ejector on the first drop.

Airtimes Primera caída Tematización

A much smoother CCI than the other woodie in the park, which is almost certainly due to the RMC topper track that was added in 2010 (RMC's HQ is literally a 10 minute drive away from the park btw, just in case you want to grab a pic or something). The airtime hills are super gnar in the back, and the earthquake theme even comes through in the form of all the tunnels you dive into. Tons of fun, and definitely worth a few re-rides if you can manage it.

¡Buena sorpresa! Intensidad Suavidad Capacidad

Was honestly floored by this ride. This was my first Giant Inverted Boomerang, and I got off of it wondering how this model didn't take the world by storm with legions of clones like other older Vekoma models (cost probably). The ride is shockingly smooth for a Vekoma from this time period (not sure if other GIBs are this smooth), and everything from the first drop to getting winched back into the station is pure pulse-pounding fun. You'd think the part where you're winched up the other tower before being dropped backwards would be a deadspot like it is on the other Boomerang models, but it's so short on the GIB that you barely have enough time to catch your breath before you're navigating the course backwards. Incredible ride, and probably one of the best shuttle coasters I've ever been on. Also really great for re-rides/marathoning despite its intensity because of how smooth it is, but don't expect to be able to on a busy day with that shuttle coaster capacity.

Fun Vibración Incomodidad

Neat classic woodie that's fun for a ride or two, but has got a bit of that old woodie rattle.

Tiempo muerto

A standard, unremarkable Wild Mouse.

Fun

Standard fare spinning coaster, nothing too special here.

Inversiones Fun Intensidad

Classic Schwarzkopf double looper that delivers on the trademark intensity as it goes through its intense, high-G loops (especially in the back seat), and fun helices.

Lap Bar Launch Hangtime Demasiado corto Capacidad

The original Premier Sky Rocket 2, Discovery Kingdom's Superman is fun little ride with a lot to offer. Having fun launches, both backward and forward, and a memorable heartline roll at the apex that gives great hangtime with those lapbars, this compact ride is definitely worth a ride or two. However, this install being at a larger park compared to some of the other Sky Rocket 2s out there really shows how poor the capacity of this model is. Prepare for this ride to probably have the longest wait in the park, often hitting 90-120 minutes on peak days (Which you may not really want to wait for if you've ridden 1 or more of the other Sky Rocket 2s out there, the ride experience is the exact same).

Lap Bar Launch Ejectors Vibración Incomodidad

The launch, and resulting ejector airtime over the top hat at the start are stellar; but Wicked has a wicked rattle, unfortunately. The ride and layout is still tons of fun, but there is a bit of discomfort that's always there as you shake, rattle and roll your way through the course. However, the ride is more than fun enough to make up for it. Be sure to ride if you can, unless you're particularly sensitive or something.

Primera caída Lap Bar Hangtime Vibración

I was expecting the beyond vertical drop to be my favorite part of the ride going in, but the hangtime this thing delivers totally stole the show for me. The layout also delivers good forces; but most of the elements, especially that funky "Lagoon roll", seem to be tailored to make sure you're dangling by that lap bar. There's a little bit of a rattle, but it's not enough to detract from the ride experience in any meaningful way. Totally worth making the drive to SLC for, in my opinion.
