This Morgan felt like a pre-computer design that is comfortable but still awkward with its transitions. The forces are odd and almost ejector in the back row as you go down the drops. The front gives a more floater feeling in the bunny hills at the end. It’s a beautiful coaster to look at from underneath and on the ride with wonderful views of the park.

This ranks up there with Mystic Timbers and Thunderhead as a super fast, smooth, and intense coaster with lots of airtime and laterals. It’s world class. I love the straight first drop into that huge first hill and then it goes all curvy and whips you side to side almost like I305. The way it transitions smoothly from one element to another and banks so well is possibly the best I’ve ever experienced in a wood coaster.

This was just a fun little looper that has wonderful lapbar restraints and is smooth. I wish it was a bit larger/longer but it's a great ride and a solid addition to the park.

I rode this on a bad day last year and wasn't impressed but then got a chance to ride it a bunch and I definitely appreciated the insane airtime pops all throughout the layout in both the front and back of the train with only buzzbars to hold me in my seat. It's also running butter smooth so Knoebels has absolutely mastered the wooden coaster art form. I still hesitate to say I prefer Phoenix to Twister (more unique design), the Beast, Thunderhead, or Mystic Timbers but it's an elite tier wood coaster.

It didn’t feel as tall as my favorite dive Griffon, but I loved the graceful and not too forceful layout. It’s also better that it doesn’t have a mid course break run like many other dive coasters. The operations were possibly the worst I’ve seen for any coaster with 5+ minutes per dispatch. The crew seemed to be working hard and not accomplishing much.

I had forgotten how great the launch and top hat on this ride are. It's absolutely insane. The wind makes my eyes nearly stay shut, the speed is like free falling sky diving, and that's before going up 450 feet. That final airtime hill is so intense too. Does it belong in comparison with other coasters, probably not, but it's still possibly the most intense coaster in north america, including its neighbor el toro, and X2. For your own sake, ride this in the front row!

Rode Jersey Devil in the back and it's kind of smaller than an Ibox RMC but the single rail has its novelty. It's not great but it is solid and fun and a good change of pace.

This does okay but not great as a family coaster. The kid behind me was crying after smacking his head with the roughness. E&F Miler should stick to smaller rides, I’m sorry to say. The track is that old fashioned I-beam stuff and the trains have undersized wheels for a 43-foot tall ride.

This was my first S&S non-4D free spin so I was really looking forward to something different. As it turns out, this is extremely different. The forces you feel are not so much rattle and roughness as just very strange and abrupt turns and twists at high speed. The coaster is smooth and the trains are great. The track is as though designed in Roller Coaster Tycoon. It’s extreme but the forces and speeds are just not profiled well so you end up sort of getting yanked this way and that way.

It was a pretty standard boomerang experience, thankfully not too dizzy afterwards. The interesting thing about this boomerang is the station building seems to be a very small custom wood building with a serious head-chopper as you are about to head back into it off the first drop.

It’s a good Vekoma SLC, and has a lot of intensity without too much rattle. Exiting the double roll towards the end my head hit the seat and that hurt so I didn’t escape completely unscathed. I love the white and dark teal colors and the views of the beach. The lockers were complimentary and they do run a metal detector.

Great White is a wonderful and well maintained wood coaster that has just the right amount of rattle and smoothness that you want in a wood coaster. The drop right out of the station is a great touch and you really move fast through the tunnel under the boardwalk into the lift hill to the point some riders were screaming down there. I mostly rode near the back about 3 times and the thing I liked the most other than the unusual views of the beach were the wonderful floating airtime on each drop. The turnarounds were relatively smooth and fun and the whole ride just has a sort of grace to it with the swoop into the final brakes. It’s not super intense but it’s a wonderful coaster.

Ice Breaker was probably my favorite at this park because it doesn’t give me a headache and it has more thrill than Pipeline. It’s good for families but I wish its capacity was better. The swing launch was great with pops of airtime.

Pipeline was fun with that signature flying feeling being off my feet a bunch of times. It’s a good ride but I don’t think it’s a mind blowing one, ju...

Pipeline was fun with that signature flying feeling being off my feet a bunch of times. It’s a good ride but I don’t think it’s a mind blowing one, just good solid fun.

The lift with its beautiful view of Lake Erie (and the sunset) and that great first drop are excellent and then unfortunately you get shaken like a rag doll at the bottom of that first drop. It really hauls like a bat out of hell so the intensity is high but there’s a roughness to it like you have to really hold on and ride defensively to not get injured so I have to knock it down a bit for that. It’s still a wonderful terrain coaster that deserves respect.

This ride starts out a bit bumpy on the lift hill but then it has a steep first drop and is fairly smooth and comfortable while still giving you that rough wood coaster experience. It’s got and interesting layout that is unique and you can tell it’s gotten new lumber here and there to help it run more smoothly. The park on a sunny July Saturday afternoon was mostly empty so I’m afraid this won’t be long for the world so make sure to get over there and give it a few rides. It’s a wonderful wood coaster and you can tell the owner cares. It’s more than I can say for the wood coasters at Canada’s Wonderland with it’s mega budget or a lot of other parks in the northeast for some reason.

This thing is evil. I assume its designer was briefly paid to work from their padded cell at the asylum with the instructions to make a ride that provides the most unpleasant experience possible. I mean, you’re placed in a cage facing down and then pummeled with the most curvy and bumpy track imaginable.

It was a standard Vekoma SLC so by now I know to push my head back as much as I can against the headrest to minimize injuries. The comments from other riders as it was ending were funny because it was a bunch of people saying “Ow! that hurt!”

The coaster is sort of a family/kids wood coaster that isn’t going to wow anyone but I have to caution adults, just don’t ride this thing. My poor legs and knees were banging into the tiny little car seat the whole time and it’s rough too. Just avoid this and send your least favorite children on it instead of spanking them.

Another painful wood coaster because its owner is an incompetent greedy corporation that hasn’t a clue how to maintain a wooden roller coaster. Like, it needs new lumber to be able to ride it. It’s barely safe in its current state.
