    Airtimes Situation Fun Trop court Harnais

    I only got 1 ride on this during my 2021 Ohio Trip and I got to admit that Corkscrew is a really fun ride! I sat in the front row and I got a nice pop of ejector airtime on the speed hill and the vertical loop pulled some insane G’s. The corkscrews also gave some nice hangtime. This ride may be short, but it sure packs a solid ride experience!

    Wow! I just got a night ride on X2 and it was really dang good.

    I’m not sure whether I like this or Superman at Fiesta Texas more, but it’s one of my favorite floorless coasters overall. The fire and water effects are a nice touch, as are the facade cutouts and forested setting.

    Intensité Vibrations Baffes Théma

    I've enjoyed both Vortex at Carowinds and Georgia Scorcher, but I hated this ride - it’s definitely intense, but Green Lantern is rough with a lot of headbanging. It didn’t ruin my opinion of standups though.

    Launch Vitesse Intensité Vibrations Trop court Fiabilité

    I technically rode Kingda Ka twice, but on lap one, the ride broke down, and the train I was on rolled back into the station. Close to park closing, I got in line for Ka again - since El Toro had a ridiculously long queue - and Kingda Ka broke down again just when I was next to ride. I waited it out this time, and finally got on 3rd row. In short - Kingda Ka is not an amazing coaster, definitely not in the same league as Voyage, Skyrush, El Toro, Fury 325, etc., but it’s one hell of a ride for sure. It’s the only coaster that has left me utterly speechless after riding, and absolutely worth a go for the experience (and the bragging rights). Kingda Ka is rough, though - the train was shaking and rattling the whole way through the launch, up/down the top hat, and into the brakes, which did detract from the experience a bit.

    Airtimes Débit Théma Sans intérêt Temps mort

    I’ve been aware of this coaster’s cult-like status, but I’d never seen a POV before, so I went into Skull Mountain blind. It’s a pretty enjoyable, smooth family coaster with that uncharacteristically steep and intense first drop. All in all, I enjoyed Skull Mountain for what it is.

    Vitesse Intensité Baffes

    It’s one of my favorite Batman clones I’ve done, second only to Over Georgia’s. Batman is a G-loaded, whippy invert that packs a mid-sized punch.

    Vitesse Intensité Layout Vibrations

    Somehow, Thunderhead is drastically better in the front than any other row. It's so much smoother and more enjoyable up there. Thunderhead has laterals and pacing galore as well as a nice sustained bit of sideways floater air plus some quick pops throughout the layout, and the station flyby is fun during the ride - but quite loud for those waiting in the station.

    Airtimes Situation Intensité Déception ! Lap Bar

    Lightning Rod was all the rage back in 2016. No one talked about anything BUT the world’s first launched wooden coaster, meaning that my hype for this ride had skyrocketed for when I would finally get to experience it in October 2016. It certainly did live up to my absurdly high expectations, but I woke up with black-and-blue bruises the next morning. I re-rode Lightning Rod multiple times in 2017, and while the airtime was great, I didn’t find this altered version of Lightning Rod to be nearly as intense or airtime-filled as when I'd ridden it the first time around. There’s no denying that Lightning Rod is a very impressive coaster — however, the quality of my more recent rides didn't match the sheer insanity that this coaster delivered back in October 2016. It’s the flagship attraction at Dollywood and a must-ride for any coaster enthusiast like me, but I have yet to understand why others rate it so much higher than I do.
