I rode Lightning Rod in May of 2021 right after the I-Box retrack, and I loved every little bit of it (except reliability). The launch was decently forceful, the drop provided great airtime, the wave turn gave stellar sideways hangtime/airtime, and the twist and shout is just insane. One of the most underrated moments of the ride is the airtime hills leading up to the quad down. These provide INSANE ejector, and I might even prefer them to the quad down. The quad down itself is a bit overrated, but the ejector is great. Overall, Lightning Rod is a great RMC that places at #3 in my rankings (#2- Fury 325 #1- Steel Vengeance).
