I mean, this wasn't awful. It wasn't painful or uncomfortable, was quite smooth, and the inversions (if you get them at all) are unpredictable and that adds an element of excitement, but the ride is really too short to get much enjoyment out it and the capacity is too low to make waiting in line for multiple rides worth it. Curiously, this is the first coaster I have seen where the chain lift completely stops when no train is on the hill. I also don't know why these free-spins are called 4D coasters at all. A "normal" coaster gives you 3 "dimensions", pitch, yaw, and roll. A true Arrow/S&S 4D coaster adds the seat pitch control, which I guess counts as the 4th dimension. But on the free-spins, there is no yaw control at all (you can only go forwards/backwards and up/down) and there is no fixed pitch control as any track pitch change can be and often is counteracted by the pitch of the seats. Therefore, I think "2.5D Free-Spin Coaster" would be a more appropriate name for this genre.
