Lots of floater. Smooth as glass. It's not overly thrilling, but it's not boring either. It's an enjoyable experience that leaves you with a smile. It was my last ride today, and it was a perfect ending to a day at Hershey.

A great coaster with a terrific layout. I love the first drop along with the airtimes and forceful laterals. My first two rides near the front and back were great with tolerable wooden rattle. No lines, so I got right back on for ride #3 in the middle. NOT pleasant. The middle rattled horribly, and the lap bar became my enemy, especially on the airtimes. I couldn't wait for the ride to end. Front and back for me.

A tale of two halves. The launch was good, but the first half felt slow. Then, after the midway point, the train suddenly picked up speed and the ride had some intensity and fun. If only the first half had been as fun. Poltergeist at SFFT does the spaghetti bowl layout a lot better.

Not bad. Not great. Typical mouse layout. The quick turns were fun, but the little cars don't handle the hills and valleys smoothly. Slow loading ...

Impulse coasters are always a nice diversion. This one has the usual fun launches and hangtime. There was a bit of headbanging against the shoulder harness, though.

I usually don't care about theming, but the theming here is awesome. You really feel like you're on a mountain. While not the most thrilling coaster, it's just plain fun. We rode it 21 times because we hit the park on a slow day, so we never waited longer than 15 minutes. It was great. The backward ride in the dark is cool with some good ejectors. My favorite part is the backward spike in the cave, and then speeding downhill out of the cave into the helix.

I really like the new ZZ. The old ZZ made you get "up close and personal" with your co-rider --- single-row bobsled trains, two to a seat, with the front rider sitting between the legs of the back rider. It was a bit awkward if you got paired with a stranger. My foggy memory recalls a decent ride with moderate intensity. (The old ZZ was relocated to Colombia in 1997, and it's still in operation under a different name -- Montana Rusa.)

The only water coaster in my top 100. It has good speed along with fun hangtimes and surprisingly good airtimes. Overall, it's very smooth with decent intensity. The backward airtime was my favorite part. You will not get wet riding this -- you will get drenched!

Clunky. That's the word. Like other Morgans, each airtime hill is followed by an abrupt "clunk" as the train refamiliarizes itself with the track. ...

Clunky. That's the word. Like other Morgans, each airtime hill is followed by an abrupt "clunk" as the train refamiliarizes itself with the track. Anyway, the first drop is good, and the first half has nice floater airtimes. The helix is fun and provides good positive Gs. The bunny hills at the end have good ejectors, but each is followed by the "clunk" that slams you back into the seat.

This would be so much better if Morgan knew how to do airtime hills. The airtime is fun, but unfortunately each airtime moment is followed by a spine...

This would be so much better if Morgan knew how to do airtime hills. The airtime is fun, but unfortunately each airtime moment is followed by a spine-slamming jolt as the train descends into each valley. I experienced the same issue on the airtime hills at the end of other Morgan coasters, Mamba and Phantom's Revenge, although they weren't as jarring as this.

I really, really like this ride. The layout leads naturally into the inversions, which are smooth and fun. I list headbanging as a con, but it's really earbanging. That hard plastic OTSR smacks my ears, making them bright red and a little sore after each ride. I'd like Kumba even more if the OTSRs had shoulder straps. (My ears would definitely enjoy the ride more...) Better yet, how about just a lap bar?

Most B&M hypers leave me feeling underwhelmed, but Behemoth surprised me. It has great speed and pacing, especially in the front which provides a smooth ride with fun airtimes. Middle and back seats had just a slight rattle. I was pleasantly shocked by how much I liked this. My favorite part is the slowly accelerating helix at the end which leads into the final airtime hill.

Can't help but compare this to Top Thrill Dragster. I rode TTD dozens of times, and never felt the tiniest rattle. KK has a small rattle that becomes rather pronounced at 128 mph. Loved the speed and height, but the vibration gave me a mild headache and slight nausea. Also, the lap bars on TTD make for a much better ride experience than the OTSRs on KK.

By the way, it's Wilde Beast, not Wild Beast. As for this ride itself, it is NOT enjoyable, not even a little. You know it's a rough coaster when all of the riders in front of you look like Bobbleheads.

You know what? This is a solid little coaster with good intensity and some fun elements. My only complaint is the hard plastic seatback, which is unkind to your lower back at certain points. Cushioned seatbacks would be nice! Otherwise, I enjoyed this, especially the segment in the dark.

My favorite racer and favorite moderate-thrill coaster. (TC might be my favorite racer if it had actually dueled!) Anyway, the layout is great and allows for cool interactions between the trains. Four fun launches, creative inversions, nice airtimes. Highly re-rideable. Capacity is an issue, though. The park was empty on my two days there (triple-digit temps), so every ride was usually a walk-on -- except for WC Racers with an average 30-minute wait. SLOW loading times. Also, OTSRs are a bit cumbersome. Still, a fun, fun, fun ride!!

I nominate Poltergeist as the most underrated ride on Captain Coaster. How is this only a measly #446? I was thinking "one and done" to get the credit, but I ended up riding it five times. This ride is so much fun with a cool launch, tight twists and turns, creative inversions and great pacing. The spaghetti bowl layout had me cheering and laughing throughout. Front and middle seats were smooth sailing while the back had a few minor vibrations. Deserves more looooove!

This is a good, solid RMC with really fun airtimes and ejectors. I went in with lowered expectations, considering it was RMC's first creation. Well, this exceeded my expectations. It's very smooth, and provides a nice long ride as well. The second half had a couple of little dead spots where the intensity lagged, but this is a really fun and intense ride overall.

This is much better later in the day after it's warmed up -- more intense airtime and ejectors. I LOVE how this whips you around with non-stop intensity. The only negative was the train clanking loudly on the rail seams in the second half. It was a noticeable difference from the smoothness of the first half. They need to get out the toolbox and tighten the bolts & plates on the rail seams.

Like most dive coasters, the drops on Dr. D were the only things that gave me any kind of thrill. The ride was pleasant and smooth, but it feels more like a family coaster than a "thrill ride." It's not a coaster that makes me say, "Wow, I gotta ride this again." One and done. Even with Flash Pass, I had to wait 70 minutes because it broke down three times while I was in line.

This is the most boring and forceless invert I've ridden. (I rode it in the morning, so maybe it hadn't warmed up yet?) There was only one inversio...

This is the most boring and forceless invert I've ridden. (I rode it in the morning, so maybe it hadn't warmed up yet?) There was only one inversion that provided any intensity. The rest of the ride just seemed to meander casually through the layout. When it got done, I thought, "I think I could fall asleep on this thing."

I went in expecting a family coaster, and that's what I got - moderate pacing and low-level intensity. (If you go in expecting a thrill ride, you'll...

I went in expecting a family coaster, and that's what I got - moderate pacing and low-level intensity. (If you go in expecting a thrill ride, you'll be very disappointed.) It was pleasant enough, but not something I desired to ride more than once.

I always enjoy these spinners as a nice diversion. If it hadn't been for my Flash Pass I would have skipped this, because the low capacity makes for a very long queue.

Easily my favorite floorless. My first ride was in the front, which gives a great sensation of speed. You also get a smooth ride with some unique pops of air and good intensity on the inversions. My next rides were in the middle and back, and there was a moderate rattle that took away some of the fun. Ride in the front -- it's worth the wait.

The back-to-back loops at the start are smooth and really fun. The rest of the layout is creative, but the train rattled in the second half. It was...

The back-to-back loops at the start are smooth and really fun. The rest of the layout is creative, but the train rattled in the second half. It wasn't a horrible rattle, but it was enough to detract from an otherwise entertaining ride.
