This was my first Vekoma Boomerang, and I came away satisfied. I had heard so many horrendous things about these coasters, and though it wasnt the smoothest ride, headbanging was minimal.

An O.K. coaster. Its not as rough as some coasters, but still causes plenty of head-banging.

My 1st & only boomerang, Sidewinder gives me some mixed feelings on it. On some days, it can be fun riding on it with that backwards run being very intense. On other days, it can be kinda rough returning back after the cobra roll. The rides alright, but not exactly the best to me. Ride this at least once when youre at Hersheypark & see how yall think of it.

I rode this ride twice. After the first ride I would have given it a 7, but the second ride just hurt. It was too rough and you got some pretty bad headbanging. Also, whats with the spiratic braking in the station? that kinda sucked. The drops are still fun and it does offer a pretty good ride for the amount of space it takes.

It gets a better grade than an average ride because of its history, it being the first ever boomerang coaster I have ever ridden. But it still, as a boomerang coaster, isnt the best boomerang out there, in my opinion. The best one I have ridden is in SFNE. But there is probably a better one out there. Ride it if the line is 15-20 minutes, but dont make a trip out of it.

slightly better than average boomerang, in that my head wasnt killing me afterwards

A typical boomerang with a mysteriously high level of intimidation. Dont ask me why but this ride spooked me more than any other boomerang Ive been on before riding.
