Vs. other coasters at Canobie Lake Park
The drop has a nice pop of sideways airtime and then it’s into a lovely, hangtimey loop.

Going down the first hill makes you lean forward and come out of your seat so much!

I did not find the ride rough at all, I got a back row ride in a full train, and I thought that the ride was glass smooth, I got no head banging at all.
@IsaacSpencer07
However, I experienced discomfort as I was stapled in and got a rough ride in the back, resulting in a lot of head banging.
James Vitale
I did find a ton of head banging and this ride is over in a flash….

Canobie Lake Park hadn’t really had something that was this level of intense prior.
Alexander Pierce
It has a good first drop and is a very intense ride.
James Vitale
Also, it’s got a single-rider line: go around the back of the station to get on almost immediately.
Matt McIrvin
Always a fast queue.
Sam Palermo
What doesn’t help is the consistent slow operations this ride is normally plagued with.
Cam Mooers
A very short ride for how long my wait experiences have been.
Alexander Pierce
After a nervous trip up the hill, the rest is just pure adrenaline rush.
@GH0STtoast
...fun--it was my first experience with a vertical lift and beyond-vertical drop, and there is something uniquely unnerving about going up flat on your back, seeing nothing but sky as you crest the top.
Matt McIrvin
Always follow the rules, warnings and restrictions posted by the park.
This is my home-park favorite, the first new coaster I saw being constructed after I got back into riding coasters.
Matt McIrvin, Captain Coaster reviewA very short ride for how long my wait experiences have been.
Alexander Pierce, Captain Coaster reviewI have ridden this coaster 560 times as I have a season pass, You have to appriciate what it does good rather than bad, The hang time on the loop and heartline roll is amazing and the first drop is also very nice.
Tommysoccer09, Captain Coaster reviewGreat, fun first drop that throws you out of your seat before plummeting down, but the rest of the ride has some solid gs but is overshadowed by the rattle and the headbanging that you get wih those awful ots restraints.
Waluigi’s Perfect Potato, Captain Coaster review90 degree lift hill and 97 degree drop along with first inversion are the highlights of this ride.
Troy M., Captain Coaster reviewThe only bad part is getting off, my neck hurt so bad, but that might just be because it was my first time riding it.
