I haven't been on the griffon of Shikra but i have seen he videos and I am a little disappointed, They really short cut the ride I think. I could have been so much longer.

How can anyone really make the honest assessment that Sheikra is better than Griffon? Griffon is taller, faster, has two vertical dives and two immelmans, and has longer rows, which puts you farther away from the track and enhances the ride experience immensely!

This ride has the benefit of being in my favorite park. It is in my "top ten" and is a little better than it's brother Sheikra. If you haven't been to Virginia, go !

tigger boxing it is not the same because it has the second immelman loop and also the two drops are both a full 90 degrees and sheikra only does 90 degrees on the first drop

To be honest it is the same as sheikra in tampa, the only difference it that this is blue and sheikra is red and griffon is a bit newer than sheikra lmao.

And by the way, Griffon's way better by FAR!

Scan, no offense, but I've rode it like 15 times and the second immelman isn't even rough to say the least!

I was pretty disappointed in Griffon. The drop was awesome but the ride was too short. I expected more than just a drop.

this coaster is pretty cool, but def. needs to be longer. i wish the hangover was a little longer too.

It's really fun with the hangover and 90 degree drop, but it's way to short. Why isn't it longer.

Wow man. Very different type of ride, amazing experience. Of course the drop was fantastic, but the Immelmans were forceful too, and there were little pops of airtime everywhere. Just awesome.

One of the best out there, along with SheiKra of course. Fantastic ride, great drop, deserves a 10 no doubt about it.
