What riders love
  • Forceful inversions, you get to go backwards.
  • Boomerang is pretty fun but that backwards spike always gets me at the beginning.
  • This boomerang is smoother than many of the others.
  • But its one of the smoother track rides at the park in my opinion.
  • I love how comfortable it is for a boomerang.

I’ve only got slight head banging on the cobra-roll once and it didn’t hurt that much.

...rattle can be felt,but over all,the ride slided well with the track and it was cool.the ride was quit fun and intense as well,the inversions pulled couple amount of g forces which helped the intensity...
