I've been on Montu a few times in my life and for being a classic B&M inverted coaster, this is a great one, but it has shown its age with it's harness/shoulder restraints, it's very uncomfortable and with little to no arm room to find a comfort zone. I do suffer a little with motion sickness, so for those who suffer from it, please make sure to take some motion sickness meds before riding because the 7 inversions throughout does catch up to you towards the end. But this coaster is amazing for everyone who loves the thrill and intensity.

Iron Gwazi and Velocicoaster are in competition for the best coaster in Florida, I would give a slight edge to Velicocaster but Iron Gwazi is a fantastic hybrid hypercoaster with a thunderous first drop and its high speed action with great airtimes along the way. I had lost my voice on this ride and it was the first ride I did that day which should tell you how intense it was. I am no expert on being a roller coaster enthusiast but the experience is what matters most, this is an all time classic coaster that everyone should ride once in their lifetime. One complaint I have is the lap bar, the workers had pushed the bar down a little bit too far down to where the lower part of my "area" got crushed, but it didn't fully affect me until the end.

Mine Cart Madness is the definition of a family friendly roller coaster, every right to be with its incredible theming, the surprise drops and speed, and the pacing of the ride. Super fun to visit the Donkey Kong Country side in Super Nintendo World but you cannot leave that section without riding Mine Cart Madness. For nostalgia of the beloved series, experiencing a ride that was inspired by one of the levels in the first Donkey Kong Country game is a dream come true. Definitely a ride that's gonna be a long wait time, which the day I went was the highest amount of wait time at 95 minutes after a short delay at first and wouldn't budge in dropping until a little bit later at 60 minutes. A great addition to Universal's roller coaster catalogue for sure.

I got the opportunity to preview this ride and I will say this, out of all rides in Epic Universe, this was the best one. Only reason why I say it is because it has that same type of presence and intensity as velocicoaster, it has the fast pace intensity, the smoothness of the turns and airtimes along with no discomfort at all. It has the longest amount of track in Orlando with 5,000 feet and duration of about a minute and a half which is pretty long for a fast roller coaster that keeps steady at around 60 mph. So this ride will be one of those where the wait times will be one of the longest in the park overall since there's not very many "roller coasters" in Epic Universe. This should be in the spotlight for years as one of Universal's best rides to date.

Disney World might lack in terms of "roller coasters", but I think this one is the greatest roller coaster in Disney World, since I haven't been to any of the other Disney parks around the world, this one wins by default. I know some will say Seven Dwarfs Mine Train or TRON are better, but I always have this coaster so close to my heart that I could ride this a bunch of times and never get tired of it. The theming is perfect, Disney does theming to their rides almost better than any park in the world, the pacing is great and always love the final drop to keep the adrenaline pumping. This is a top tier coaster in my opinion.

With its masterful theming, the beloved titular character, and the intensity of the ride itself, this is a quintessential roller coaster that can be enjoyed for pretty much all ages. The first launch is breathtaking and automatically giving you adrenaline out of the gate, with its smooth turns and fast pace momentum, there are two spots where it calms you to enjoy the creativity that the designers made, then it picks up being an absolute fun coaster again. Highly recommend, this and velocicoaster are in my top favorite coasters of all time, especially being in the same park.

First time I rode this coaster in November 2024 I fell absolutely in love with it. The intensity, the drops, and the inversions were smooth while keeping its fast pace momentum. The presentation and theme is incredible with keeping true to the Jurassic Park/World franchise, this is the perfect roller coaster to me and I would highly recommend it.
