I've been on two SLCs by the time of this review (the other one is at Darien Lake), this is the worse of the two. The ride is literally falling apart (one of the shells on the top of the train was loose, not a good thing and the floor squeaks when it comes down). The lift hill spells disaster as the cars shift from left to right, on wooden coasters... it's okay because they were not meant to be perfect but this is horrible. Then it's a headbanging assault throughout every moment of the ride. Even your arms will not be saved as they're covered by the horrible restraint. It's a course of suffering and misery, but not all of it is horrible. At least it is somewhat intense but that doesn't say much. Six Flags really doesn't do much with this park so I'm sorry to say that this monstrosity will be around.

A pretty bad B&M for sure. The layout is not really that exciting and the whole entire ride is nothing but headbanging. I was even expecting some bit of it to be a little forceful (like a couple of the turns and the vertical loop) but I didn't get those either. Even the straight sections have severe headbanging and a horrible rattle. My only excuse on why it's not the lowest is because it's B&M's first coaster and the restraints are not terrible (although with Mind Eraser, it doesn't feel like rocks hitting your ears). It's still the worst extreme steel coaster I've ridden.

A great Spaghetti-Bowl coaster with no trims. The ride starts out with a good launch (not my favorite), into a couple inversions. One thing that this ride has that some of the indoor versions of the Spaghetti-Bowl (Flight Of Fear) doesn't that they haul through the turns. All of the inversions and every turn feel forceful and snappy. This thing is relentless, ending off with a whippy corkscrew. The ride does have a very noticeable rattle, it's not horrible because you are in a lap bar but it's enough to somewhat downgrade it. If you thought the Flight Of Fear clones were slow, try this one out.

A killer woodie! I got in expecting the worst as every bump in the track might murder me, but it turns out... I was blown away! The ride was really smooth and there is a lot of airtime. The first hills, the double-dip, and the hill afterwards give out amazing airtime. My only gripe is that the section before the helix doesn't really do anything, but the helix itself absolutely destroys the Thunderbolt's (Kennywood) lateral turns, and you can ride this alone. While it being over 100 years old but it still really holds up to this day!

While a very rough ride... but with the Millennium Flyer trains, the ride is not too painful. I have to say that the ride does need the Ghost Rider treatment (GCI has retracked/rebuilt the entire ride in 2016) but for what it is, Wildcat is a pretty enjoyable coaster. The ride is surprisingly forceful, the pacing is really good, and the layout is fun. If it weren't for it's roughness, the ride would be marathonable but I accept it for what it is. Don't RMC this please!

Probably the smoothest coaster I've been on (with the exception of Seven Dwarfs Mine Train at Disney's Magic Kingdom). The turn-around after the lift hill is surprisingly intense (sadly I kinda knew it ahead of time, otherwise that would've caught me off guard), then the first drop gave off some decent floater. The first two inversions, the vertical loop and the immelmann are really smooth but don't have a lot to offer when it comes to their intensity. Then you literally FLY through the zero-g-roll, it's a really snappy inversion, then the corkscrew is even better. It manages to make my head lean towards the restraint but not cause headbanging... it's very intense but smooth. I wish the end of the ride included one last turn around to the Coal Cracker and the water to make an interesting effect before heading into the brake run. I was expecting this ride to not be that forceful, part of it is... part of it is not.

A great ride with a unique layout! The airtime and speed make this a top coaster in all the lists and I can see why. The ride has a unique concept of having the second drop be the biggest drop. The sensation of speed is crazy and the g-forces on the fan turn are intense but it's the airtime hills at the very end is what makes this a stand-out coaster, my problem with the ride is that the lift hill takes forever and with a ride that short... it somewhat feels disappointing but the ride overall is amazing!

This is the ride that got me into Aerosmith and even to rock music (then heavy metal), this is probably my favorite coaster at the Disney parks in Florida. The theme in the queue is okay. When on the ride, the launch is actually pretty intense (probably more so than Joker's Jinx at Six Flags America, a ride with a similar layout... and that had a lap bar). The sea-serpent element is quite forceful but the turns throughout the ride don't really do anything and if you're not careful, you could get some headbanging. The corkscrew was enjoyable, but I think what really makes it a great ride is that it's indoors and the Aerosmith music really sets the tone. A somewhat underrated ride.

This (comparing to the Space Mountain at Disneyland which look... meh) is rather underrated. While it is rough, but it's tons of fun. You actually get some decent airtime throughout the layout, and the turns are quite intense... yet again it's in the dark. The ride is kinda janky at points and the weird seats made is somewhat worse but it wasn't to the point where it ruins my whole day (unlike a couple of coasters/flat rides). Give this one a chance.
