    Vitesse Vibrations Harnais Inconfort

    Vortex is easily the worst B&M coaster I've ever ridden. After the loop, the ride becomes an endless barrage of painful elements. It's not so bad that it isn't fun, but it is bad enough that it's certainly not a good coaster. I hope this either gets torn down or has a floorless conversion, because Vortex is not Carowinds's finest work.

    Situation Hangtime Vibrations Sans intérêt

    Anaconda isn't as bad as many make it out to be. There is a slight rattle, but I've never found it distracting. The ride is absolutely beautiful over the lake. Unfortunately, the ride is kinda boring. It has a lot of slow, circle-like maneuvers, with wonky transitions. The corkscrews were actually my favorite part because you get some hangtime going through them so slowly.

    Théma

    Orlando's Big Thunder Mountain is a heavily themed mine train. The theming is top notch, though I prefer Anaheim's.The coaster itself is pretty good for a mine train, but not an elite coaster by any means. However, it is one of the best experiences at one of the world's best parks.

    Airtimes Bonne suprise !

    Cannon Ball is a surprisingly good, classic wooden coaster at Lake Winnepesaukah. It's not very statistically impressive, but it delivers a surprising amount of good airtime. It's not particularly rough. For a ride of its age, Cannon Ball is in remarkably good shape, and provides a great thrill.

    First Drop Vitesse Vibrations Baffes Inconfort

    Carolina Cyclone is a fun ride, but it has a strong rattle to it that can detract from the ride experience. There's some great forces in the back going over the first drop. The vertical loops are super fun. The helix bit is really fun too. This ride has a lot of fun moments, but not a lot of moments that are better than average, just fun.

    Théma Vibrations

    Backlot Stunt Coaster is a very small launched coaster. It's not particularly comfortable, and the track has a rattle to it. The theming is good, but doesn't function properly very much. It has its moments of fun, but mostly it's a forgettable layout surrounded by decent theming.

    Launch Hangtime Débit Harnais Inconfort

    Tempesto is a great ride marred by poor train design. The ride provides excellent hangtime. The launch sequence is incredibly fun. The restraints are terrible. I'm a tall guy, so the lapbar can crush my lower legs at times, and provide an uncomfortable sensation on my hips. And the comfort collar is dumb and stupid. The layout is great, and I look forward to riding a Sky Rocket II without comfort collars, because the ride should be more fun than it is, and it's the restraints that kill some of the fun.

    Launch Trop court

    Montezooma's Revenge packs a lot of fun into a very, very short layout. The spikes deliver fun airtime. The loop is powerful. The launch is powerful. Everything about this ride is really well done. There just isn't very much to it. It's just launch, back, and done. Montezooma doesn't try to be a big coaster, but it is very good for what it is.

    Théma Hangtime Vibrations Temps mort

    Mystery Mine is an amazing ride and a terrible coaster. It is extraordinarily well themed most of the way through the ride. The theming complements the roller coaster sections extremely well. Unfortunately, the roller coaster sections are not generally very good. The first half feels pointless, as you just slowly maneuver in circles on the side of a hill. The second half is really short, but do be ready for some extreme hangtime on the final inversion. It may not be a great roller coaster, but it has a spectacular finale, and amazing theming that makes it a must-do at Dollywood.

    Fun Vibrations Inconfort

    Racer 75 is a fun ride, not a good ride. It's got a rattle to it, enough to be uncomfortable, but not enough to make it not fun. There isn't amazing airtime, but there isn't no airtime either. This is a classic wooden coaster with enough pure fun factor to stand the test of time, even if it's a little on the mediocre side.
