I like woodies, and I really wanted to like this coaster. It is visually stunning, a massive coaster that must have taken a small forest to construct. With a one hundred and sixty foot first drop, Mean Streak isnt far from being a hyper woodie. But the ride was just too rough and too painful to be enjoyable. ( And in case anyone thinks Im a coaster wimp for saying so my favorite ride for a long time was the Riverside/SFNE Cyclone before the retracking, with the Morgan trains. In the back seat, no less!) Mean Streal felt like forty miles of potholes ridden in a car with square wheels. There was no air time whatsoever and the train seemed to struggle to acend the second and third hills. I had a violent headache when I got off the ride.
The Mean Streak is a wood twister roller coaster. It was built in 1991. It was built by PTC and designed by Dinn & Summers. It is 161' tall, it is 5,427 feet long. It is fast(60mph), it is fun, rerideable, it has a large capacity, and a long duration.
I thought that this ride was pretty fun. Its not smooth, but I wouldnt consider it terribly rough and painful. It was a nice long ride with cool drops and banked turns. Its hidden in the back of the park, so the line wasnt long at all!
So beutiful to watch and observe. The line was very long and it broke down while I was waiting. After waiting a fairly long time, it just wasnt worth it. It had good speed and wasnt terribly rough. Stale at times, and gave me a bad headache for some reason. Shorter wait and this ride would seem better.
Not exactly a world class ride, but still good. You dont get any air time, but you do get some nice lateral Gs and good speed at certain spots along the ride. And if you think this is too rough, dont ride The Beast or Son of Beast at PKI. TIP: Avoid the back car at all costs.
I have to admit this coaster looks good but trim brakes really ruin the ride. I dont mind the roughness, but there are too many stale moments on this ride due to trim brakes. It could have been better.
Easily the worst ride Ive ever been on. It beats the crap out of you. Save you time and have someone beat you with a plastic baseball bat instead.
I smell a retracking in the future for this young ride. I still dont get the trim on the drop, which hurts my neck every time.
Mean Streak may not be the smoothest woodie or have much airtime, but if you like fun in coasters, and not just obsessed with how fast or how much air it has youll like this one.
This rides a real B! Big. Bumpy. Boring. Braked. Bad. My Back! Theres a whole lot more where that came from, but this coaster doesnt have much going for it except its height and structure. This was once a top 5 ride and now its a bottom 5. What to do? Thumbs down all the way through!
