What riders love
  • Sure the model is more common than a sneeze, but Joker, as well as other S&S Freespins are still really fun rides, that provide hangtime, disorienting flips, and just overall fun.
  • This was my first 4D Freespin. I had heard that these are not very good but I was pleasantly surprised by this one.
  • I enjoyed the chaotic nature and got quite a few flips without becoming sick.
  • First of all, I got upside down airtime on one of the dip like a stall!
  • The flips on this thing made you feel like, even with the ridiculously protective OTSRs, you were going to fall out.
  • Honestly usually skip this one due to long lines for such a short ride compared to other rides but if you get to ride it in a timely manner it is extremely fun and INTENSE!

Performance

Vs. other coasters at Six Flags Over Texas

Also, it repeatedly racked me in my lower regions, which wasn’t very fun.

Your Coaster Friend

I just find this ride very uncomfortable and somewhat nauseating.

Lauryn Najar

It was kinda fun, but just too insane.

Emerson Head

I’m a big guy and this ride is able to throw me around like a rag doll.

Jonathan Stafford

Problem is their capacities aren’t the best, and queues can balloon to more than a wait they deserve; this is especially true with this one since it’s surrounded by some truly great rides.

Evangelion Martini

...in a weird way,I rode by myself at the end of the day and used the flash pass to skip the long line(2.1 hours=20 min)I don’t have any interest in riding this when I go back to six flags because there...

coaster land, Captain Coaster review

I like these more than the normal person reviewing coasters and think they’re perfect for parks since their footprint is so small.

Lauryn Najar, Captain Coaster review

While they’re not my favorite, Free Spins are still fun rides.
