You need to sit in back for this one. The way you are yanked into each loop is unreal.
Too short for the time spent in line, but it is a fun coaster.
The station is two stories high, and for some dumb reason they made the descent to the lift hill with a series of mini camel humps which are annoying and painful, being thrown into the harness then against the back of the seat over and over. The double helix at the end will peel your skin back but the ride ends there. Drop down for 2 loops, double helix, brakes...... Go get back in line.

This is easily one of the five worst coasters I have ever ridden (and I should know, I somehow manage to get on it every time I visit my home park).
There is nothing good about this ride.
First, you are thrown into a couple tiny little humps that are way to small for the train, giving the rider and experience too painful to want to repeat.
But the pain doesn't stop there! The train makes it about 10 feet up the lift by itself, but when gravity stops, the chain takes over, and its sure to give you a lump the size of Rhode Island on the back of your head!
And what happens after the agonizingly slow lift? An equally agonizingly slow drop that leads into two loops that could stand to be 1.5 times bigger!
You think the positive g's are too great there? Just wait until you hit the nosebleed-inducing helices that give 99.99% of all riders a serious concussion!
And after that, riders get one more dose of pain with the stupidly design flat turn taken way to fast!
This ride's stupidity in design is matched only by Dive to Atlantis.
