Okay ... here we go. 1st of all, this is a PHENOMENAL ride and probably the most unique wooden coaster Ive ever ridden. I simply loved this ride. Ill admit, I do enjoy wooden coasters that can kick your *ss (like THE BEAST), and this one does it in a very fun way. It is a bit jerky at times, but it is certainly no worse than the newer mouse coasters ... and, frankly, the jerks here are more fun and more appropriate than the slams I get from when a mouse coaster goes through a simple turn. Most other people in my party had some objections to it, but I LOVED it 100%. I literally was laughing and chearing the whole way. In addition, I heard not one complaint from other families as they disembarked from the ride, all I saw were smiles and laughter. The small drops and sudden changes freak you out more than you might think, given their small size, and you literally dont know whats going to happen next. Id be frightened to see how fast this coaster would feel if they didnt use the brake inside the mountain, because it flies now. This off-season, IB is going to finsh rebuilding the mountain itself, add the themed elements back inside, smooth out the rough spots on the outside track (now that CCI is defunct), and replace all the seat belts with ones similiar to the CORNBALL EXPRESS. Really look for this ride to "come alive" next year!!! To all riders, BEWARE, do not let the small size or the "family" label fool you on this coaster .. this is one wild, wicked, mean, intense, fun, crazy, fast, insane ride ... and I LOVE IT!!!!
