What riders love
  • One of the most memorably awesome experiences I’ve had on a coaster was launching out of complete darkness into the light and by the time my eyes adjusted we were halfway through the inverted top hat
  • That backwards launch is awesome and it's rare to see a backwards launch that's that powerful.
  • The backwards launch out of the station pulls you forward and it’s insane.
  • That inverted top hat feels illegal, especially backwards.
  • The best way to describe Mr. Freeze is 30 seconds of absolute chaos, and it’s awesome!
  • Reliably clocks over 5Gs *twice* in its layout.
  • Ride back car so your highest on the spike, the airtime on the fall down is my favorite feeling in the world!!
  • The final vertical spike has some insane hangtime and intensity.
  • Also, the extra lift on the vertical portion is a really cool sensation.

Performance

Vs. other coasters at Mid America Adventure

The spike is very fun as you get pushed towards the ground when you get launched upwards and get great floater the whole way down.

Carter Eckhart

Ride back car so your highest on the spike, the airtime on the fall down is my favorite feeling in the world!!

Jason C.

Speed in the overbanks, punches and booster and of course air time on that spike.

716 Coasters

The ride is very short though and is very focused on inversions and one drop, not airtime moments.

Clayton

The lap bars, which replaced the old shoulder restraints after the 2001 season, provide a smoother and comfortable ride experience.

Elevator, Alarm, Coaster and Animation Productions

Plus it’s surprisingly smooth for a 90s Premier coaster.

Duncan G.

Wouldn’t want to ride this too many times because of the discomfort so just adds to the disappointing line up SFSL

Glass Cannonn

Freeze was one of these, but now that it’s been 28 years since it opened, the roughness has progressed past the point of being a selling point and is now a shortcoming.

Mike Davis

Fun ride with good intensity, the launch is crazy and staring down as you are about to fall down the spike is insane.

Clayton

The launch is pretty intense and fun and the short layout is super intense as well.

Jack Jack J.

Also the intensity is underrated as this coaster is wild you start off with a crazy launch BACKWARDS!

Liam Carter

Backwards launch, intense top hat, and a stupid fun ride experience that I hope sticks around.

Eric Esty

...is great quality, but the layout is extremely short and its a bit lame, the inverted tophat makes my head feel like its gonna explode, and its not to intense, Wait, is that the vertical spike I see?

Enzo

this ride is fast and you can barley tell what happened until it hold you in the air for you to get a breather then you do it all again very fun but very short.

Evan S

The two train operation keeps people moving through the line pretty well.

Brian Sheldon

Great ride, was running at day during our visit with short lines.

What riders say

Praised for

Great launchIntenseRider favouriteHangtime

Criticised for

Too short

This is by far the best coaster in the park, which makes it too bad that it’s so short.

Ethan Finn, Captain Coaster review

The launch is pretty intense and fun and the short layout is super intense as well.

Jack Jack J., Captain Coaster review

That backwards launch is awesome and it’s rare to see a backwards launch that’s that powerful.

Inverted Thrills, Captain Coaster review

I liked the idea of the coaster but I think it would be better if they had more safety in the seat and it needs to stop breaking down every 15 minutes of the time we’re there, aka it should be closed for the first month that Six Flags is open

Alexandra lehmen, Captain Coaster review

One of the most memorably awesome experiences I’ve had on a coaster was launching out of complete darkness into the light and by the time my eyes adjusted we were halfway through the inverted top hat

Evan G., Captain Coaster review

This may not be a long ride, but it’s a great one, easily the best in the park.
