    First Drop Inversions Ejectors Trop court

    Goliath is as of today my favorite coaster, I just had the wonderful opportunity of going to Six Flags Great America on it's opening day and got to ride 4 different coaster for the first time as an enthusiast (it is my homepark so I have ridden all of them before) so now it is time to give it a review and to begin let's start with the cons. Goliath has two real cons and those are that as of this review seats are assigned but I believe that you can request a row however I did not because I got assigned near the back both times. The ride's biggest con however has to be it's duration, this ride is far to short and there is not really much else that can be said about this. Now moving on to the pros and there are many of these so to begin let's start with the wonderful first drop, this drop is all you want it to be and more. The drop is taken at an 85 degree angle and is 180ft which is 15 feet longer then the actual height of the ride. You are ejected over this drop in the back (as I said before can't say anything about the front yet) and it feels like you are falling for awhile before you reach the valley. The second pro of Goliath is it's several ejector airtime points which are: the aforementioned drop, the first airtime hill, and the pullout of the second 90 degree banked turn, these moments make this ride what it is and I love it. The third and final notable pro is the 2 wonderful inversions which are a dive loop which is great and a stall which is fantastic and was actually the first ever zero-G stall and I love this element and it is in my opinion the best inversion in the park. overall my opinion on Goliath is that it is positively the best ride in the park and I would give it a solid 8.5/10. The only thing that holds this ride back from a better rating is it's length but it is in a small plot of land so they did the best they could.l

    When I rode this seven years ago, I loved it and was disappointed when the ride came to an end. When I rode it yesterday, I was relieved when it was over. The layout is the best I've seen for a mine coaster, but this ride has gotten much rougher since I rode it in 2015. Seven years ago, I rode it multiple times because it was so much fun. Yesterday, once was enough.

    I thought the tonnerres de zeus was easier than the Pegasus express, sharp turns at high speed and it was mainly just uncomfortable. I recommend if you have a strong gut, but this ride emphasises the stomache sensation and the start is very brisk and really ejects you. Not for me.

    This is an underrated gem that shouldn’t be missed out on. There is a lot of airtime before and after the mid courses and the ride is surprisingly intense. If only there wasn’t a rattle and didn’t slow down every time.

    Wow this is an amazing ride, so much theming and so much airtime and that death roll, wow that thing just tries to rip you out of your seat it is so forceful. This is a true elite coaster.

    Superman it’s a really great ride with lots of ejector moments throughout and a great first drop. I wish there weren’t so many dead spots and wasn’t closed both times when I went last year…

    Seven Dwarves Mine Train is definitely an enjoyable ride no doubt about that, and after my first day at Magic Kingdom, I would have said it was my favorite at the park without the slightest of doubt however when I came back for a second time on the final park day of my trip, and after visiting all the parks I can't say the same but it was the only coaster I did not ride again and that brings us into our first con which is the line that it gets. Now this first con pretty much goes for every ride at the park but this one feels it esspically, the ride's queue is half inside and half outside, and once you get to the inside portion you move as slow as a snail. That brings us to the next con which is that the indoor queue in my opinion is rather boring. This might just be me and all the games were closed when I went due to Covid-19 ristrictions, dispite this I just hated the indoor queue and I can't really explain why. Now that gets the queue's cons out of the way which brings us to the actul ride experince's cons which is it's rather long area before the second lift. In the aformentioned area is a long scene with the seven dwarves singing and it goes on for like a minute which I feel is to long and it easily could have been shorter. Now that all of the cons have been adressed let's talk about it's pros. It's first big pro must be it's smoothness which I feel is the rides most prominet feature. On this ride you feel as though you are gliding over the tracks beyond that not much more can be said about this pro. The next pro to adress is it's detailed themeing, the overall detail of the area that the ride is built into is fantastic and the way you can see it from the ride's surronding path ways is stuning (esspically the one veiw where there is a banked turn under a bridge). The ride really looks spectacular. Now all that having been said I would give the ride a soild 6.5/10 I think it really is a good ride experince with a fantastic setting and surronding area.

    Excellent "family" coaster. It is very forceful and an excellent ride even for seasoned coaster nuts. With the spinning action each ride is unique. I really enjoy it. My issue with it is they took out the auditorium with the pool to put this in. Now I would always trade any show for a decent coaster. However, the show used to occupy hundreds of people that lessened the lines everywhere else. That of course doesn't take away from the ride experience which is more than pretty solid. An excellent addition to the park.
