Perhaps the worst steel coaster that I have ever been on. It's very slow and the course is short. The ninja probably gets riden only because it's at the front of the park and only because there are no lines for it.

Ninja is a steel sit down roller coaster. It has 4 inversions. It was built by Vekoma in 1986 and relocated in 1989. It is 110' tall, and 2,330' long. It is fast, fun, rerideable, it has a large capacity, and a long duration.

Its alright but not one I make a point of doing. Sometimes I get a real headache from it and other times my head don&#39.t get banged around at all. There must be a secret to it but I couldn&#39.t tell you what it is. Do this one if your brave enough to risk the headache and if you have time left over. Otherwise you won&#39.t miss much by skipping it.

It looks like it should be a good coaster for its type (custom looping). However, it was very painful on the neck, head and jaw (kept getting slammed into the OTSRs).

Being 6 feet tall, I dont have to worry about the headbanging that makes Ninja so unpopular. The ride is still far from being smooth, though, and it lacks any big drops. Watch out for the headchopper after the second inversion. Id give this a 7 for people over 6 feet tall, and a 4 for shorter people who have to deal with the headbanging. This averages to a 5.5, which Ill generously round up to a 6.

You know, I was dreading riding this coaster because of all the horrible reviews here. And I agree, it is not the most attractive looking coaster. But you know, I really enjoyed it! I encountered virtually no headbanging, and thought it was a fun, if short ride. I think the ultra smooth B&Ms and such have us all spoiled. I also think you have to be careful how you hold yourself on the ride and anticipate the corkscrew when it comes so it does not catch you unaware. If you do that, it really is not a bad coaster, and is actually quite fun. I do not think this coaster deserves such a low rating! I was in the front seat for all my rides, if that makes a difference. My girlfriend who is smaller than me and therefore more likely to encounter headbanging also enjoyed the ride and did not feel any real headbanging. The layout is fine, although certain nothing novel or extra unusual. Overall, I had a nice time and found it quite re-ridable!

Man I am glad the mega looper era is over. CAPACITY-7 They were running two trains on the day I was there so it was pretty much pick your seat at anytime during the day. APPEARANCE-2 Needs to be themed to a DC character since it is so close to Batman and Joker. How about Harley Quinn? I do admire the amount of elements put in such a small footprint. RIDE QUALITY-3 About what I expected. I have rode rougher, but that doesnt make this any better. FUN-2 I gave it one extra point for the best head chopper ever. No real speed and you are riding so defensively it is not much fun. RERIDE-2 I would go with a new rider if I was asked, but that would be the only reason. OVERALL-16 AVG-3.2 Considering almost half of its points came from capacity this definately gets the generous 3.

This ride is very fun and exhilarating, but it can be very painful near the end with the corckscrews and the helix
