Shockwave review by ThemeTendo

by ThemeTendo, 9 years ago
Rated 2.0 This ride is like "The Claw" on wheels, just minus the airtime. Harnesses can be uncomfortable and even painful depending on how you're sitting when they come up. A good family ride, but if you're looking for thrills, you are better of going to any of the other Ocean Parade rides.

Review Criteria

Enjoyment Good

Effectiveness Good

Intensity Low

Rider Comfort Average

This one completely depends on how you sit when the harnesses are coming up. When the harnesses release you usually here an 'ahhh' from everyone on the ride.

Pacing Good

Theming/Storyline Average

Meant to be themed to a deep sea diving mission, but has green track and the only theming is the station design and mural on the opposite side of the track.

Upkeep/Presentation Average

Station is starting to fade, I didn't even notice the blue rocks on the side of the queue line, they're either super faded, or removed completely.

Queue/Efficiency Amazing

Queue is super efficient, because there is usually very little wait.
