The Gold Coaster review by TAPR

by TAPR, 9 years ago
Rated 2.5 I remember when this ride from years ago and enjoying it, but it looks like the theming neglect is in full force with this one and the ride made my head physically feel like it had turned to jelly for a good ten minutes. The loops were enjoyable though and that it goes through White Water World is a nice touch. The ride itself though? I'll probably not go on the Cyclone again.

Review Criteria

Enjoyment Good

During the ride my head felt like it was dying slowly from the side to side knocking.

Effectiveness Average

Well it did feel like I went through a cyclone, to which resulted in pain.

Intensity Medium

Fear was more for the zip ties on the harness system, but the loops were great.

Rider Comfort

Zip ties on harnesses, my head ringing afterwards for a good ten minutes even though I 'put my head back', enough said.

Pacing Good

Theming/Storyline Very Good

It honestly looks like its been through a cyclone of neglect.

Upkeep/Presentation

I remember the ride in its early days, the upkeep is long gone from this poor ride. Kind of feel sorry for it.

Queue/Efficiency Amazing

Staff were great and well mannered.
