The first time I went on Steel Force was back in 1997, the year that it opened. This was the first hyper coaster in the East, thus being the first that I had ridden. It was absolutely awesome. The ride was so smooth, and it still is. It is a great track in terms of stability and layout. The huge helix is not visible since Hercules is now defunct, which is kind of cool. The first two drops are great. The helix is unbelieveable when it is at top speed. The brakes half way through going towards the home stretch do not do much because the first hill after them just shoots you right down. The bunnyhops are my girlfriends favorite part. I do highly suggest waiting for the front seat. I went on this ride during the pooring rain. I was waiting in my seat when there was a huge downpour. The attendent announced that it would be the last ride of the day as we went in to the rain, not being able to see 10 feet in front of us. The ride was so fast that my acne cleared up and my face has been relatively clear ever since! What a great experience!

Good first drop and an average amount of airtime on the hills. Love the tunnels, bunny hops, and the large forceful helix. Overall an excellent ride.

Great ride. Lots of airtime and many drops that have you out of your seat the whole ride.

This ride was really fun. A lot of airtime on the hops on the trip back to the station. Great first drop.

The first and second drops were the best parts and the air on the second drop was good. The rest was ok.

I hate to have to repeat all the great things said about this ride but I do. This is one of the funnest rides Ive ever been on. Its not too insane, not too calm, just...fun. The airtime on the return leg is second to none and the power of the far helix is a big surprise to first time riders. On top of this, Steel Forces first drop is one of the best youll find anywhere. Sitting in the front seat, you get dangled over the edge, waiting for the rest of the train to catch up and the front seat provides a great view of the first tunnel which seems incredibly too small to fit these large Morgan hypercoaster trains into. A great ride for people who want to graduate from the average rides to the great rides.

One of the greatest sit-down rides ever. The first drop is incredible. The entire ride is so much fun!

This is just pure fun. The chain lift is just slow enough to get you worried. The first drop is a thriller, and the Gs and airtime at the bottom of the drop are amazing. The turnaround is a real joy. The mid course brakes barely hamper the ride at all. The bunny hops home provide great airtime. And theres a sneaky little hop at the end that puts a big smile on your face as you return to the station. And to top it all off, the ride is smooth as silk. Fantastic stuff.

I hate making the same points as other critics but I have to here. The ride is fun, fast with lots of air time and the bunny hops and tunnels back into the loadhouse make for an ending as good as the rest of the ride. Also, my 7 year old nieces first hyper coaster, Im so proud
