  • Second launch has a good amount of punch and leads to the best airtime moment on the ride, followed by fast, low to the ground laterals.
  • The start is a bit slow, but when it gets going, it gets going.
  • The launches are very fun as is the ride as a whole.
  • great step-up coaster for families.
  • Punchy launches and tight maneuvers, great for families.
  • It's a family coaster, so it doesn't exactly have too many notable forces, but it's really fun, has some nice launches, and is definitely a Top 5 coaster at New England.
  • Could’ve been more airtime, but it’s super flowy and has good pacing.

Performance

Vs. other coasters at Six Flags New England

Second launch has a good amount of punch and leads to the best airtime moment on the ride, followed by fast, low to the ground laterals.

Jordan Oliksowycz-Gardner

this ride does something for everyone, with 2 punchy launches, snappy moments, some solid airtime and overall excellent pacing, this ride is absolutely spectacular.

SnowyShores

Could’ve been more airtime, but it’s super flowy and has good pacing.

Camden Lagunowich

It looked like a disappointing small ride at first, but the layout is really nice, the launch is exhilarating, and it’s smooth as butter.

Coaster Potato

Then in terms of smoothness, this ride is glass smooth.

Canobie Coaster

Got a gnarly Charlie Horse that tightened up on the brake run and felt like it lasted forever.

Charles Garand

Had a slight rattle, but nothing to worry about!

Max Coy

It’s a family coaster, so it doesn’t exactly have too many notable forces, but it’s really fun, has some nice launches, and is definitely a Top 5 coaster at New England.

Anthony DeNight Jr.

The launch is way more punchy than I anticipated for tires, but still just tires, so not very intense.

Camden Lagunowich

The launches delivered more of a punch than I expected, the theming was great for a six flags park, and I could really feel the speed in the front row!

Max Coy

The downsides are the dead spots in the layout and the intensity.

Max S.

The start is a bit slow, but when it gets going, it gets going.

Easily top 5 roller coasters at SFNE, I didn’t think it would be this good until I tried it myself.

Coaster Potato, Captain Coaster review

It’s a family coaster, so it doesn’t exactly have too many notable forces, but it’s really fun, has some nice launches, and is definitely a Top 5 coaster at New England.

Anthony DeNight Jr., Captain Coaster review

Comfy seats if you hold on, slow but punchy launches, and a surprisingly lengthy ride make this the top family coaster at SFNE.

David, Captain Coaster review

It’s a family ride, but it does have some fun twists and curves as well as a powerful 2nd launch.

Henry Marth, Captain Coaster review

The launch is way more punchy than I anticipated for tires, but still just tires, so not very intense.

Camden Lagunowich, Captain Coaster review

Very good theming for a six flags ride and honestly people hate because it’s not crazy intense but you don’t always need to have some record breaking coaster added to the park all the time
