Back row
the ground hugging moments are superb
What riders love
  • Back row is super intense and the pretzel loop will attempt to make you unconscious.
  • That pretzel loop is insanley flipping intense and the rest of the ride is very fun.
  • However I can appreciate the sheer intensity of that pretzel loop and every element hit hard.
  • The whole ride is an amazing experience and gives you a true flying sensation.
  • Very enjoyable! The flying position is fun, and the layout rocks it.
  • Nice ride, a real overlooked gem in the park.
  • It's built into the terrain which allows for some great near misses.
  • Pretzel loop is super intense and the terrain makes for a visually pleasing ride with some great foot/leg choppers.
  • This ride provides gorgeous scenery and is relatively comfortable if you don't mind facing down.

Performance

Vs. other coasters at Six Flags Over Georgia

Besides the pretzel loop it’s pretty smooth and if your not in the front row you can’t see where your going so it surprises you a lot.

Ednor L Attaque Never did it

While it might not really feel like riders are flying unencumbered through the air, the restraints are comfortable and the soaring and swooping layout is probably the closest that any rollercoaster...

Theme Park James

This ride is very smooth and comfortable, unlike a similar B&M flyer at Great Adventure that I did not enjoy at all.

David

It’s just as smooth as its clone I’ve ridden and B&M should look into making more of these with custom models.

Max S.

Flies low to the ground much of the ride to give a superman feel, but the big loop cranked on my back uncomfortably.

Myroslav

The flying position hurt my neck and back and the g-force of the inverted loop really hurt my stomach.

@TheAngryBrave

The two overbanked turns give great unexplainable forces, and the inline twist is a great finale, and the ground hugging moments are superb.

Eric Esty

It is fast and intense, with some sustained positive G-forces at the bottom of the loop.

Theme Park James

The terrain aspect is cool but because of the shorter train this just felt faster and more intense and whipped through the layout better.

Cooper Zimmerman

This thing is almost too intense.

Ednor L Attaque Never did it

Yes, it’s still fun because it’s a flying coaster and the inherent nature is insane on its own, but some more forces would have been appreciated.

Zach S.

You still have the insanely intense pretzel loop but unlike the other clones that feel like one trick ponies, for whatever reason this one feels like it runs considerably faster.

Carter Eckhart

And with it being smaller, you swoosh into the worlds first pretzel loop even faster.

Eric Esty

It seems so much faster when you’re on it!

@streetough

The ride is decently long though there are some boring spots that don’t have much going on.

Zia Border

The pacing was also kind of slow.

Tobin Billings

Main downside is the slow operations (they were running one train when I was there), but the actual ride is quite enjoyable.

Sam Dickson

The line was longer than it needed to be and the sun was beating down pretty hard on me and my party prior to riding.

Sean Reardon
Motion sickness risk

(If you’re a guy you’ll understand) I was also pretty disoriented after.

Austin L.

It has an intense pretzel loop and first turn, added with a disorienting inline twist.

Cooper Zimmerman, Captain Coaster review

As much as I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed Batman - the Ride clone at SFOG, I DID NOT LIKE Superman - Ultimate Flight.

Sean Reardon, Captain Coaster review

It’s a fun ride and the way it works with the terrain makes it definitely the best of the Superman clones, but beyond that, it’s really nothing special.

Benjamin Andrews, Captain Coaster review

However, I believe the one at Over Georgia is better because this one uses the terrain very well while the one at Great Adventure was just plopped down in a flat parking lot

Jonas, Captain Coaster review

It is fast and intense, with some sustained positive G-forces at the bottom of the loop.

Theme Park James, published review

It looks like it should be really scary and thrilling ride, but it always ends up being a bit of a letdown.

Coaster Nut, Captain Coaster review
