... bad as people make it out to be. Some slight headbanging, but the loops are pretty intense. 8. Hurler- 6/10 - Would be a decent ride without that trim at the bottom of the first hill and with some retracking, but for now it's a pretty rough and uneventful ride. Has some slight floaty airtime. ...

... and give me a "rug" burn. I hate them with a passion. I also think it isn't intense enough at the end, and would love to see the trim on the 2nd airtime hill removed.

... knowledgeable... Later in the day (warmed up to actually feel hot but in the mid-70s) I rode again. 4th row, seat 1. Again hands up the whole way. Trim brake DID engage that time. But what I experienced was a vibration most of the ride (experienced it REAL BAD on Afterburn on right side of row ...

... of the day. Evidently we had to wait until the ride warmed up. It opened about 11:30. I rode front row left (seat 4). Was smooth as silk and the trim DID NOT engage. It was probably still too cold for it to be at full speed even though the speed was breathtaking. Hands up 100% of the time from ...

... (more on that later). We shoot out of that tunnel and into another overbank. This is snappy, but not as snappy as the s-curve. The ride hits a trim, and you can feel it, but it's not taking away from the ride experience. The level of annoyance is probably the same as a slight rattle on a good ...

... even. Flying under the bridge and then up into the next banked hill, there is more airtime. After that, you hit the first big hill. There is a trim there, magnetic, and the 2 rides I got really slowed the train down noticeably. Having said that, much like the trim on Diamondback, I really didn't ...

... the airtime on the three hills at the end. MAJOR airtime. And I'd even go so far as to say that it's even more sustained and enjoyable than the trim-infested airtime on Intimidator. And yes, I ducked at the head chopper. All in all, this is my new #1. Fun, fun, fun.

... enormous as you're racing towards it. The ride picked up some speed in the afternoon, other than one ride which seemed a bit slow after the trim. Take some of the "reviews" of the ride from people who rode it a couple of times in the morning with a grain of salt.

... segmented. The turn between the tunnel and first airhill wasn't too noticeable other than it felt like an overbank even though it isn't one. The trim is very noticeable. :( Helix isn't forceless and that support felt like the closest clearance on any B&M coaster ever. IMO the front seat ride ...

The trim brake was hitting pretty hard but all three hills were still delivering excellent airtime. Awesome! I suspected the turnaround might be a highlight, ...

^yeah, when I rode, I could definitely feel the trims and not to complain, but I feel like there would be much more airtime on those three hills if that trim was deactivated, but we all know that's probably not going to happen.

... time. You flew close to the ground and felt like you could touch the bystanders. The 91* turnaround gave sideways airtime In the back seat! The trim on the airtime hill engaged 9/10 times but did NOT effect the ride experience and you still got plenty of floater and a bit of ejector airtime ...
