Surprisingly good. I was expecting a mediocre ride with a pretty boring layout, But I was pleasently surprised. After the first 150 foot drop, the train angles off to the right and goes up the next hill. The train then drops down and goes up another hill with surprising speed. After that the train slams into the mid course brake and does a strange spiral turn-around. Ive heard that the brake is now on really high. Does it affect the ride at all? The bunny hops that follow produce a ton of airtime. The train takes them with a lot of speed creating scrumptious airtime. One of my favorite aspects of this coaster is that it rarely has a wait. I also love the setting along the lake, with the gentle breeze. When I first saw this I really wasnt expecting much (mostly because its not very tall) but Steel Eel is really smooth and pulls quite a few Gs. I really enjoyed my 7 rides on Steel Eel!
