First Drop Fun Intensité Vibrations Trop court Débit

This coaster is great and unique, no questions there, but people tend to overcompliment it (it is like they are blinded by its theme gimmicks). To be fair, there is plenty to criticize as well. The backstory of the coaster is cool but a bit too complicated. After standing in line, you would probably only understand bits of it and not the full picture. Especially if you do not know German (That accent sequence is in German only). The accent sequence is long and you have to hang in a psychologically uncomfortable vertical position. It is scary for the first time, kind of cool for the second, but after that, it is mostly irritating. The seat assignment gimmick is cool only for the first time. Then you just resent that you can not select the seat. The first drop is so much more awesome when you are in the front row, but you might not have a chance to experience it at all during your visit. You can not stop thinking about how all these elements ruin the ride capacity, which is not great. The second forceful half of the layout is a bit controversial. I would say it is too forceful, to the point of being disorientating. It is like a boxer giving you two punches. I wish it used its speed for something longer and more enjoyable. But the designers probably did not have the space for it. The final inversion is so slow, that it is mostly pointless. It is just another "surprise" element. But I also think people do not give Karnan enough credit for its first half which is just fantastic and very original. It does not feel like a typical hypercoaster at all. And this is a good thing.

Vibrations Inconfort

How is this one so rough compared to other coasters of this model? It looks, sounds and feels like it hasn't been maintained in 10 years!

Airtimes First Drop Intensité Vibrations

It’s 5 stars even with the roughness, that’s how good it is. The first drop is as good as people say, and “deathjector” is an accurate name. Even on the ride where I got stapled there was strong ejector, that’s how powerful it is. The turn after is intense but rough. Then, a nice little hill with some ejector, laterals, then the Rolling Thunder hill. I love the rolling thunder hill. There is sustained ejector on the entire hill. You then go through some rough but intense turns and that’s the ride. I will also mention the cable lift is fast enough to feel the speed. A retracking would do wonders to this ride.

Théma

I was lucky it was running and got a ride on it. I love the old school roar of its track and how long it takes to get up to speed. It’s such a throw back to an earlier coaster era with all the newer launch coasters but I love it for that reason that it’s a piece of history and looks beautiful towering above everything. I think older rides like this that have been surpassed technologically are valuable to keep around and remind us how much things have changed.

Fun

It was a typical Arrow mine train ride but does have the hillside terrain working for it. It was a lot of fun and a good family ride as these mine trains usually are.

Intensité

The last remaining Arrow mega looper was just as intense as everyone says. You get those jarring transitions and sweet sweet teardrop vertical loops. Do yourself a favor and ride it in the front, not the back, since the front is much more smooth on this ride. The back row tried to kill me. The feeling I get is that you shouldn’t really be going 70 mph through this course and these elements. It’s a flawed ride but I love it so much and hope they keep it running for a long time.

Situation

The hillside location makes this a wonderful terrain coaster and of course the fact it is suspended swinging cars from Arrow makes it fairly unique since a lot of these types of coasters have been removed from parks. I hope Ninja with its black train cars stays around a lot longer.

Chef d'oeuvre

This ride is so much fun. I absolutely love that they have a sign over the track right before the inversion warning you that strange things are about to happen and you need to keep your head back for their one inversion. It really made me laugh. It’s a wonderful family coaster and I hope it stays around a lot longer.

Intensité

Yet another B&M that gave me a headache and made me glad when it was over.

Vitesse Intensité

I feel like this might be the first wooden coaster I’ve ridden that seems to be all about speed and just making you feel like the train is going way too fast for the track and it’s going to derail at any moment. It’s a wonderful wooden coaster and I wish there were more like it. It’s not going to give you airtime and lateral forces but it’s amazing with its intensity and being out of control.
