I’d like to preface this review by saying I only had the opportunity to ride Lightning Rod on cold, rainy days. I could very well be severely underselling the ride. However, I was still disappointed by the ride’s length and terrible wood sections that should be replaced ASAP. I also found it to lack the bite many newer RMCs have, and I believe this may be a bit overhyped due to its legacy status. I did really enjoy the first few elements and the overrated but still awesome “quad-down”, but I found the middle of layout was just okay, not something you can afford to do with such a short layout. As it nears a decade of operation, in my opinion Lightning Rod has fallen from grace to newer competition.

Nice idea, poorly executed. It could have been a masterpiece, but for me, it’s a failed project. Very low capacity for a PortAventura ride, creating eternal queues any day of the year. Absurd storytelling and theming. You have a Mexico area in the park, and you think it’s a good idea to add Aztec theming in the Far West? Inconsistent story, jeeps in the Far West, paper walls, screens that look like they belong in high school, and the worst part for me: more theming in the queues than in the ride itself. Really disappointing.

How the heck did Fun Spot of all chains get this top tier RMC? It’s super well paced, super whippy, and super fun. The only possible con is that those last few bunnyhops make your legs feel broken, but it’s still a masterpiece.

Perfect ride. First drop is a bit mediocre compared to most hypers. Sense of speed is so great in the front row. My favorite element on this coaster is the quick and intense turnaround into the low to the ground banked turn. The helixes are on point and intense. You won't hear it enough, this layout is such a masterpiece. I'm not qualified enough to say the best in the world, but I can say it's definitely up there. One of the few coaster's I've been on which actually have better theming on the ride rather than in the station. All the different props you fly through on the first half are such good visual elements. That mist is the perfect thing to cool you off on a hot summer New England day!
