 Review of Ripsaw Falls @ Islands of Adventure

The flume itself was top notch. Some good false drops, love the double-down element, and a great final drop. Problems? Character elements were minimal and not nearly enveloping enough (again, this is on a scale for an ORLANDO THEME PARK, against a local 6flags or Paramount, its got them beat). Story line was basic, but still rather difficult to follow, and I didnt find it all that entertaining (and I used to love the old cartoon show as a kid). As is typical of IOA, I could see too many "behind the scenes" elements without having to look for them ... its not as much fun when you see the rod moving him or the crack in the concrete that he is guided through. All in all, dont miss this ride when at the park ... but Id recommend hitting MKs SPLASH MOUNTAIN and make your own comparisons for Orlandos top flume ride.

I like how you dont step on Splash Mountain in your review even though you think this one is really cool. I dig that.

I agree, nice review. I love Ripsaw Falls a ton, but my only beef is the same as one of yours: too many "behind the scenes" elements. Well put.
