    Intensité A raser ! Sans intérêt

    This ugly coaster, while a decent launched family coaster, ruins the view from the Eiffel Tower of Coney Mall and Rivertown, and is an ugly reminder of how inept and out of touch Paramount was at managing theme parks: by making a coaster based on a movie nobody has seen or remembers. It doesn't fit into either section, and its prime spot on the hill should be given back to the antique cars.

    First Drop Inversions Situation Baffes

    A great first drop and fun inversions, but it suffers the same unfortunate problems as most Arrow loopers.

    Airtimes Situation Vitesse

    By far my favorite GCI wooden coaster. The airtime is strong from beginning to end, the pacing is perfect, the ride through the woods is dark and feels extremely fast, and the theming at the end is the wonderful icing on the wooden coaster masterpiece cake.

    Situation Chef d'oeuvre

    This is a coaster that defies how it thrills its riders. With only two drops in the first half to speak of, some may find it pointless. But it's an otherworldly experience. The downhill acceleration through the woods at top speed is one of the few times I've been terrified on a roller coaster. The coaster is so long, it takes a second lift hill just to do the finale: an inclosed, enormous double helix. The wooden feel of the coaster adds to the sense of speed, danger, and terror. I'm extremely happy I'm able to appreciate this coaster, as it's my #1 wood coaster, and the most thrilling ride I've ever been on.

    Inversions Situation Launch

    An unusually fast paced wing coaster in the forest, with some cool theming. Forceful with hangtime, and an incredibly unique ride.

    Situation Vitesse Intensité

    Legend is absolutely amazing. A huge first drop, enormous laterals, and a last half with slamming airtime and lateral turns. It rides through the woods and over and under the slides. It's a blend of lateral, positive, and negative forces that is extremely rare. The fast ride by the forest, the huge scale, and the spooky theming put this ride over the edge as one of my favorite wooden coasters.

    Harnais Inconfort Sans intérêt

    Crappy coaster that crushes your thighs and rattles your body a bit. Tear it down.

    Débit Harnais A raser !

    My least favorite coaster. I hate that this coaster stands for the Eisner era of Disney, in his aspect of cutting corners to cut costs. The restrains are uncomfortable and the theming is tacky and disgusting. The coaster is always painful. And I hate having to ride it whenever I go to Disney with family. Awful coaster, I would be very happy if it closed without warning tomorrow.

    First Drop Fun Harnais Temps mort

    The individual elements are great. The first drop, non-inverting loop, treble clef, twisted airtime hill, and overbank at the beginning of the ride are all great. The pace, however, is abysmal. Midcourse breaks put this otherwise cool and unique coaster's experience to a halt. After the overbank, the ride dies, and nothing else interesting happens. The music selection is fun, but outdated. The lap restraints are awkward and uncomfortable. Fun ride, but Maurer was probably the worst choice for USO's hyper style coaster.

    Théma Launch Vitesse

    This coaster perfectly blends dark ride with coaster. Awesome animatronics, pyrotechnics, mist, audio, and projections make for a thrilling and kickass dark ride experience. While the launched, twisty, fast paced coaster section is unpredictable, even with a couple airtime hills! Extremely impressive coaster.
