Millenium Force is all about the speed, rushing through and above the peninsula's more secluded section while throwing all caution to the wind. It's not focused on the intensity of an i305, or the airtimes of a B&M, and while those may be more preferrable forms of a Giga for many enthusiasts such as myself, what Millenium achieves is fun in itself. Besides, the valley into the first turn pulls some impressive positives, and the two camelback hills have good, sustained floater. The speed hill before the last turn has a pretty strong pop too. And aren't those colors, and that track, just beautiful? Regardless, a sunset ride is one of the most cinematic experiences one can have at an amusement park. With all the speed, it feels as if you are riding into the sunset in an act of glorious cliche.

This hyper has lots of airtime. So, I have only ridden this a few times and I got stapled every time. The drop is decent and so is the first hill. The you go into a turn around and some floater hills. After that you go into a bone crushing helix that is very forceful. Then you kinda meander into the station. Overall, a decent ride that could be better without me getting stapled.

The first launched B&M Wing, and probably the model's best coaster. The launch that begins is not the most intense, but it still manages to be plenty of fun, especially since it has a simple yet effective dispatch sequence. And at the very least, it makes the gigantic Immelmann that follows possible, ratcheting up the positives, and, if you're lucky, will provide the briefest moment of air on the descent. The next element, a vertical loop, is just as huge, and even more intense, and the figure 8 that follows brings the G-forces to their climax. By this point, though, the ride is solidly in the woods, and, to prevent monotony, shifts to snappy manuvers. The Zero-G Roll is so satisfying as it whips around, and even has a decent near miss moment with all the trees growing under it. And that S-Bend is unbelievably snappy with how quickly it shifts direction. After a tight helix, the ride comes to a thrilling conclusion with an In-Line Twist finale that provides great hangtime. It even sneaks in the Wing coaster near miss trope as it passes through a dilapidated barn. Overall, Thunderbird offers a diverse experience in a short amount of time, making for a wonderfully fun ride.

Thunderbolt is not aging well. I loved this ride growing up, but it needed a retrack 10 years ago. Kennywood needs to call up RMC and turn this ride into something worth waiting in line for. Sure there will be outrage, but don't forget that TB was at one time The Pippin, so it wouldn't even be the coasters first overhaul.
Super smooth inversion beast. Lots of fun no matter where you sit. Wish the coaster had a bit more airtime or G force moments, but otherwise very fun ...
Super smooth inversion beast. Lots of fun no matter where you sit. Wish the coaster had a bit more airtime or G force moments, but otherwise very fun to be relentless thrown through inversions.

Much like Jimi Hendrix covering Bob Dylan's "All Along The Watchtower" and making it his own, Morgan took Arrow's coaster and turned it into a masterpiece. Butter smooth ride, one of the best second drops in the world, and insane ejector airtime moments to finish off the ride, made even greater by minimalistic lap bars. Supremely underrated beast.

This coaster is rough! You start off with a very fast lift into one of my favorite drops. After that, you head into two awesome airtime hills that give some flowjecter. This is when the ride goes downhill, you go into some banks and turns that give good laterals, but it shakes so much it is unenjoyable. You almost have to hold on after the first half because it just hurts. Overall, a great ride that is very, very rough.
