What riders love
  • The backwards loop into the boomerang is an outstanding moment of sustained intensity.
  • Dropping in backwards made the coaster a good bit more intense and allows you to experience the ride once more with a twist!
  • WOW! This boomerang is incredible!
  • This is a very strong looping coaster!
  • This was my first roller coaster with multiple inversions.

Blake Stoudt

Also, noone ever talks about how freaking intense these boomerangs are.

Beau

...(and maybe slightly anxious) for the rest of the ride that followed, and the first drop comes almost as soon as the train arrives at the top, its pretty intense and brings a good amount of speed!

Blake Stoudt, Captain Coaster review

It was pretty bad with the old restraints but they got comfort vests around 2020 or so which makes it much better but it’s still not fun.

Catboy, Captain Coaster review

The new trains are very comfortable and the track is surprisingly smooth!

Beau, Captain Coaster review

It was a pretty standard boomerang experience, thankfully not too dizzy afterwards.
