Performance

Vs. other coasters at Mt. Olympus Water & Theme Park

"The Drop" is freaking insane, and the other couple pops of air are nice...but it’s too short for me to rank it in my top 10 for woodies.

Jew

Tries to be a family coaster and succeeds with some light floater and laterals, but then the drop at the end is the strongest airtime moment in the park so it’s a bit confusing

Gwazi Three Two Five

The moment of ejector air on the final drop is one of the most powerful moments of airtime on any coaster in the world, and I actually think the rest of the ride is pretty damn fun as well.

Incredible Coasters

You get a few huge ejector air moments, but it’s also not the smoothest or most comfortable coaster, so you pay a bit of a price, but probably worth it for a couple laps per visit.

Glass Cannonn

The air time was intense enough that it buried itself into my hip and left a pretty decent size bruise.

Carnage

The big drop gives great ejector and the whole ride provides good laterals and solid airtime.

Inverted Thrills

Plus, after the retracking, this ride is very smooth

Inverted Thrills

the "OMG drop" is pretty insane, I sat in the right seat and I landed on the seat devider :shock: it was quite painful

M_Force_4_ever

This ride goes from not forceful to back alley mugging and then ends with a sore rider.

Cooper Weeks

Those intense moments of airtime really make this coaster worth it.

@lays9402

I enjoy the mild pops and the bouncy nature it is, almost as if its taunting us before the big moment comes.

Incredible Coasters

And they are really fast and don’t have many loops and curls because I get sick if there are lots of those.

@MtnBaseballGirl

I know, living in wisconsin, i have went to mt olympus like 10 times and its always a short line for cyclopse and pegasis, normally we can just walk right on

Glass Cannonn, Captain Coaster review

No idea why but when I went Hades was pretty bearable and this thing was crazy rough.

Gwazi Three Two Five, Captain Coaster review

This coaster I don’t remember as well other than the big drop at the end around the station.

David, Captain Coaster review

The big drop gives great ejector and the whole ride provides good laterals and solid airtime.

Inverted Thrills, Captain Coaster review

But don’t be fooled- the rest of the ride also has some pretty good pops of ejector air too.
