    Vitesse Intensité Ejectors Débit

    I was not expecting this thing to be as intense as it was. My first ride, third seat from the front, I scream-cussed the whole time. It goes by so fast you have no idea what is happening. From absolutely any seat this thing is bonkers. On my third ride after absorbing the layout a bit I got a seat in the back (shoutout to the operating staff guy that gave it to me, bless you)--and holy. Shit. For basically the whole duration of that 90 degree drop you are in no way in your seat. You just get absolutely chucked over it and all the airtime moments afterward feel twice as intense. There's this drop that takes you around the backside of the ride that just totally flings you out. It honestly kinda feels like you're barely in your seat the whole time. This is now the most intense coaster at CGA by a very long shot and it's a great addition to the lineup. I will say that a friend of mine complained of neck pain after the ride, so if you normally have issues with that you may wanna put effort into keeping yours tensed. I myself had no issues. The line is also usually very long and if you want more than a couple rides in a day a fast pass is a must. It's definitely well worth the wait despite its short duration and every time I ride it it just makes me want to go again. And again. And again. Ride this thing or you'll regret it.

    Fun Intensité Layout

    This is probably my favorite wooden coaster I've ridden so far, and I'm not normally a wooden coaster person. This thing HAULS. I love the forces you experience riding it and it's extremely smooth for what it is. It's definitely fun from the front--super enjoyable to see the surrounding track whizz by as you go--but the back man, the back. The trains are extremely long (9 cars/18 seats) so riding in the back is like experiencing a whole different ride. The intensity just slams by comparison. It absolutely WHIPS you over that first hill and THROWS you around every turn. There's lots of great airtime and it's just a joy to experience. Highly recommended.

    Chef d'oeuvre Layout Longueur

    I love that they converted the old colossus, so you get both tracks on every ride, and each track is unique. That’s a genius move. I prefer the blue track to the green, but heard others during my 3 different rides who preferred the green. This ride has a little bit of everything…. A great first drop (twice), good airtime, crazy inversions, smoothness, comfort, and fun from start to finish. They even get a little silly on the approach to the first chain lift. I’m putting this 3rd on my tops, only behind X-2 and Millennium Force. These hybrid wooden coasters are the best thing to happen in roller coasters, since inverted steel and dangling feet in the 90s. Joker at Discovery Kingdom is another really fun wooden hybrid coaster, but I thought this was significantly better.

    Confort Chef d'oeuvre Intensité

    This ride is insane, definitely better than the POV makes it out to be. The stall trashes that of any RMC and the mix of ejector airtime, fast transitions and good positive forces makes this ride be close to perfect!

    Inconfort A raser !

    I wish I could say something positive about the last one of its kind, but as with most models that only sold few units the problem is the model itself resulting in my mixed E Motions when riding it. At least until it smashed me against the ride side of the train sending this ride straight onto my flop list. Glad I have the credit so I dont have to ride it again.

    Classic wooden coaster. The location is about as good as any coaster on the planet. The ride is a little rough, but not too rough. My favorite part is that tunnel at the beginning. It does provide some decent airtime, but it’s scoring most of my points for history and location. I’d happily ride this one over and over. 3.5 stars.

    Launch Vitesse Intensité Trop court

    Enjoyed this with my 9 year old daughter, her first ride on a 100mph coaster. Not quite as good as Top Thrill Dragster or Kingda Ka, but is it really that far behind them? It’s an intense and fast good time. When you’re next in line, and the doors are closed, you can’t even hear the coaster. It is one of the loudest coasters on the planet. Out in the park, when you’re out and about, you can hear it from just about everywhere, and if you get too close to it, cover your ears. That waiting station must be damn near soundproof!

    First Drop Intensité Layout Intensité

    An incredible unique ride in a small park with little to no wait times. A truly amazing set of drops for the size and the backwards overbanked turn is on of the most intense things you’ll see on any normal sized coaster. Well worth a visit to ZDT just to ride Switchback!
