    Théma Bonne suprise ! Launch

    By far one of the most pleasant surprises I’ve ever had on a roller coaster. The atmosphere is amazing. The launch is one of the most intense I’ve ridden and the airtime hill right after that is an amazing ejector airtime moment. The heartline roll before the brakes has great hangtime. The drop in the building is (as you could expect on a Eurofighter) also amazing. I loved the ambience as it was pretty creepy. All in all is the ride just a bit on the shorter side, but as it is a Eurofighter it actually has a pretty long and very unique layout with incredible effective theming

    Fun Layout Ejectors

    While it's been a bit since I've been on GD, I have to say this one is an all-time favorite. It's a classic boardwalk coaster, with a fun layout, great head chopper moments, some excellent airtime, and it's simply gorgeous. I will say that the ride eats hats (don't assume that it's completely toothless) and the initial drop into a tunnel before the lift hill is an absolutely GREAT element.

    Théma Fun

    It's been a long time since I rode Quicksilver Express - heck, the last ride I had on it was when the park had just been renamed Gilroy Gardens, from its original Bonfante Gardens - but QME remains a fond memory for me. I remember it as a fun, winding mine train with some nice lateral G's and good themeing, and from what I can tell that's all still true. Hopefully the park's maintaining this well.

    Fun Inconfort

    It's a spinning steel wild mouse. I mean, either you like `em or you don't. There's very little variety with these coasters, and the Wild Mouse at Beech Bend has no surprises here. It's competent, it's fun, it's not the most comfortable but it's pretty okay. Ride with four people and you can get the car spinning pretty well just by shifting your weight around.

    Airtimes Baffes Inconfort A raser !

    Kentucky Rumbler used to be good, or at the very least "pretty alright". It seems that it isn't getting the upkeep it needs; my last ride on KR was painful, shaking so badly that I couldn't see straight and slamming me into the side of the seat hard. This isn't simply a rough ride, this is a downright unbearable ride. There's a good layout here, and a good ride beneath it to be uncovered, but man, the upkeep's gotta be done to do that. Otherwise, just rip it down and put something else in its place. This is especially disappointing for me because I had previously thought of the Rumbler as the one really good reason to go to Beech Bend since they've done away with free soda and gutted the arcade.

    Bonne suprise ! Fun Débit Fiabilité

    Fun from what I remember. Haven't been on it since 2019 though, so it could use a reride. I won't spoil the surprise for those who haven't ridden Wonder Mountain's Guardian yet, but I'll just say that it scared the living crap out of me!

    First Drop Trop court

    The pros and cons of this ride speak for themselves. Way too short but awesome drop.

    Inversions Fun Fluidité Trop court

    Un énième Floorless B&M au layout plus insipide tu meurs… Heureusement sa fluidité est parfaite (du moins au premier rang) mais on est bien loin d’un Superman ADA ou d’un Kraken.

    Longueur Sans intérêt Layout Intensité

    Rode this on March 27th, and it must have just come out of a retract as the ride was running quite smoothly. There were some jolts and jerks, but the ride was running a lot better than I thought it would, and really wasn’t uncomfortable. The ride is really pointless though, it really doesn’t do a lot, I think there’s like one moment of weak floater airtime and that’s it. At least for now, the ride is decent and not really rough; but this ride would still be better off getting the RMC treatment.
