I like boomerangs, but will someone PLEASE make one that doesn't hurt? It gets points for being cool looking, I guess.

This is a decent Vekoma Boomerang, even though a very old one. It is smooth except for the Cobra Roll, and if you keep
your head back, it won't hurt.

This was my first inverted coaster. Good. Being pulled back at the station and held for a wile increases the
tension. Same at the other end, however going backwards was a bit harsh on my neck. Be prepared.

Ugh. Intense, but not a fun kind of intense, and too much headbanging, worst coaster in the park (Even Poison
Ivy/Catwoman is better then it).

Typical boomerang. You've done one, you've done pretty much all of them.

blah... same old boomerang ride that almost every park has. I think this one is a little smoother than most.

I rode it a few days back, the back seat gives a great view of the park. But then I forgot that the back seat whips you
all over the place and bashes your head around. Rating stays six this year.

I take that back, the brakes are killer, I guess its a new program this season.

You've ridden one, you've ridden them all. But its lift is fast, its capacity is kinda good and it looks nice, so it
aint half bad.

Not a good ride. If you want, you can accidentally miss this ride. But it does invert the most in this park.
