Viper is really a Magic Mountain staple roller coaster - even more so than Colossus or Revolution. Its a great Arrow classic. Its not silky smooth like some of the newer ones but just keep your head against the headrest and its not too bad. The 3 vertical loops are great, especially the fist one which is really high. The batwing is also a really cool element. My only complaint about this ride is the trim brakes right before the corkscrew. It seems to me that is slows the train down excessively. I know they have their reasons for doing this but it just seems a but much. The shoulder restraints are also a little tight on a tall person. Im a little below average height and my shoulders have no room to spare in these things. I give it minus 1 point for a little bit of shaking and minus 1 for the excessive braking but otherwise a really fun ride that I plan to enjoy for many years to come.
