Lilly Patton and I didn't even get off I just sat there there was absolutely zero line and they let me stay on and I also eat a lot of food because it was also my breakfast and after that I went on flashback and then pandemonium
The first year it opened (was it 1983??) as the Cyclone (a fully wooden only coaster, with no underwheels to lock the train to the track) I had a season's pass. Back then the park was called Riverside Park. The coaster that first year was INCREDIBLE! It was so fast and rough that it threw me around like a rag doll, and I swear the train itself left the track for a split second at the top of the first hill (which was an immediate bend). Cyclone indeed! Because you felt like you were in one when you rode it! And because I had a season's pass, I rode it often! One night, I was in line waiting to get on, and my friend was riding it when someone fell out. Apparently, at the top of that first hill where it goes into an immediate bend, some joker tried standing up and he fell out. Fortunately for him, he managed to grab hold of the railing, so he did not fall to the ground...but I believe that he broke his hip or something (it was a long time ago). Nobody on the coaster realized that he had fallen out until the train arrived back in the station. My friend who was riding the coaster at the time told me that as they arrived in the station, some girl started crying out, "HE'S GONE! HE'S GONE!" It was the girl that had sat next to him...it was only then that everyone realized what had happened. Needless to say, they shut the coaster down for the night and I never got to ride it anymore that day. On another occasion when I was riding the coaster, it got stuck midway up the lifthill. We waited for like an hour for them to get us down! But what a great coaster it was!
I prefer Wicked Cyclone, mainly because of it’s relentlessness and how Superman’s restraints are trash. However, if it was still Bizarro with the Bizarro trains, then I wouldn’t be able to decide.
+CoasterWizard239 1 Not really. With hangtime it feels like you're hanging from the lap bars. Hangtime is what I'd describe the feeling on slower inversions like a Sky Rocket 2 or Superloop. This however feels like a pop of ejector air you get when you're upside down.
I’ve ridden it about seven times between now and last summer. It is butter smooth. The back seat is the best. Love the first drop. I wish it was faster. I’m torn on which one I like better. This, or Superman. Great video. Thanks.
I dare you to do Goliath or Flashback 3 times in a row! and to make your dare even more extreme, but this is optional, to eat a bag of Takis before you do it (and no drammamine either)
flashback is really smooth but because of how many G's you pull on flashback it would be a really good challenge to do it with your not so digested spicy chips. I can see the disaster already
Xtreme Rides TV oh man, those would be spilling out after my first ride on Goliath, flashback I think I would be fine, what do you think about the joker, on the seat facing the coaster you spin more so that would be a challenge also
the joker I think I would be fine on. if you do a lot of rides on goliath I think he might fail the challenge, including me. and I almost forgot, NO DRAMAMINE!!!!
Honestly this is probably my favorite coaster. There have been a few times that the line is super short and I was able to go nearly twice in a row. I wasn't able to go on the original Cyclone but I'm glad they replaced it lol.
When I went here in the beginning of June, this was the first coaster we hit up. We rode it 11 times in the 2 1/2 days we were there, it's by far the smoothest roller coaster I have ever ridden as well. I can't wait until August when I hit SFMM to ride Twisted Colosses, Hybrids have become my favorite type of roller coaster.
RMCs are like mature students at school, always being quiet when the teacher says too, unlike B&Ms which are rattlesnakes because they can rattle loudly.
You should check out Goliath at my homepark, Six Flags Great America! It's got the best drop on any coaster I've been on! Back row is definitely the best. Yeah, the ride may be short but with a dive loop and a zero g stall it sure packs a punch. If you have a season pass I definitely recommend coming out to Six Flags Great America.
I would like to know that for some reason in the blue train is like so many bumps along the track that a really rough and hurt a lot so like not really a lot so the first one is for both trains at the bottom of the drop and the second one is for the Blue train it's at the the middle of the over bank then the exit of the overbank before the attack there he'll then after the ejector hill before the zero-g still and after the zero-g stall before that second overbank then at the center of that second over bank and then right before the double down as the final one really aggressive thumps for some reason I'm the only one who notices it
The ride never has any long ride lines anymore. The past few times I went (which are week days normally), tend to never be crowded. I was able to get on five times in a row. It is rarely ever down (unlike Goliath, which seems to constantly be down, though has approved on thus season). Each train offers a different experience, with only the back being painful (which is really on that first hill, since they push the lap bar too tight on me). I would say this, and Superman easily make the park already worth the visit.
The last 2 times I've visited SFNE were both weekends, one was Columbus Day Weekend 2015 and one was last weekend (June 24th and 25th, 2017). During the first visit, WC had a line of about 30 minutes the whole day, while Superman (back then it was Bizarro) had an hour and a half or more. The second time, WC was walk on from opening until about 7:00 pm, and from then on it was about 15 minutes. I don't understand why Superman gets so many more people. And to combat the pain in the back, you can sit forward and puff out your stomach in the station, then sit back once they try pushing it down to leave yourself some wiggle room.
Probably because Superman is the most notable attraction in the park, has been for 15 years, and you can see it from everywhere. When walking through the park, WC is surprisingly hidden behind Goliath in most view points, and then eyes tend to gravitate toward New England Sky Screamer. I'd guess people forget it's even there
So true tho...I was driving to the park and WC looked closed so once I got to the front gate on the M&M bridge I wanted to see if it was running; I couldn't even see it
Even Superman has had less and less riders, as has Goliath. Honestly, the longest lines recently have been for rides such as thunderbolt, as well as the Joker. The park has seen a slight decline in attendance, which is probably going to be due to increases in prices around the entire park. Plus, with the weather, more people tend to go towards the water park now. This has been more along the recent weekends, but of course, as summer goes on, the amount of visitors increase. If you want shorter ride times, go in October, on Sunday, when the weather is cloudy, at opening. Here, everything is walk on ride times, and most people go later for fright fest. I think SF:NE will experience its most visitors in the time between Fourth of July to the closing of the water park, since this is when the park experiences its largest guest count peak. It all changes based on the factors of weather, date, time of day. Most of the riders will go on Superman at dusk, because the sunset with the ride is stunning.
When I went Thunderbolt was a good 45 minutes at the start of the day. The operations were just so bad. Same with Goliath. The crews for WC and Superman, however, were dispatching trains so they didnt stack at all.
this was my first and still favorite RMC. since I rode this a couple weeks after it opened, I've ridden Twisted Colossus, Lightning Rod, Goliath, New Texas Giant, and Iron Rattler. Wicked Cyclone is still king. side note...I was here 2 weeks after opening and they were assigning seats. do they still do this?
All RMC's are awesome but this is one of the "weaker" RMC's (I use that term fairly loosely) just ahead of Joker at Discovery Kingdom. My favorite is Goliath but I have yet to get on Lightning Rod and Iron Rattler (and a few others)
Peter could you do some kind of meet up on Sunday at Lake compounds if we meet up I can get you to skip every single line because I am blind and have a pass
I would love to do a meet up! I'd have to check my schedule for this Sunday since I might have a family event but I'm definitely planning one soon. Thanks for watching :).
The air time on those little hills shook my stomach! Do not go on after lunch! Lol
Sara is a nerd I ate lunch and then went on Tomahawk twice in a row because I was stupid
Jimmy Fails so did I... I was perfectly fine
Lilly Patton and I didn't even get off I just sat there there was absolutely zero line and they let me stay on and I also eat a lot of food because it was also my breakfast and after that I went on flashback and then pandemonium
LOLZ
I love the stomach feeling
I love Wicked Cyclone. It is my new favorite coaster there.

But what a great coaster it was!
Massachusetts is an amazing place. Beauty, Pizza, and Wicked Cyclone.
What's better? Wicked Cyclone or Superman The Ride? The Ultimate Battle of SFNE
I prefer Wicked Cyclone, mainly because of it’s relentlessness and how Superman’s restraints are trash. However, if it was still Bizarro with the Bizarro trains, then I wouldn’t be able to decide.
Wicked Cyclone… Now if Superman The Ride has the T bar restraints then it would be a toss up….
upside down air time? you mean hang time
+CoasterWizard239 1 Not really. With hangtime it feels like you're hanging from the lap bars. Hangtime is what I'd describe the feeling on slower inversions like a Sky Rocket 2 or Superloop. This however feels like a pop of ejector air you get when you're upside down.
oh
Theme Park Crazy hangtime is a roller coaster at KBF
Congrats on the 4k!

I dare you to do Goliath or Flashback 3 times in a row! and to make your dare even more extreme, but this is optional, to eat a bag of Takis before you do it (and no drammamine either)
Xtreme Rides TV why flashback it's actually fun and not too shaky
flashback is really smooth but because of how many G's you pull on flashback it would be a really good challenge to do it with your not so digested spicy chips. I can see the disaster already
Xtreme Rides TV oh man, those would be spilling out after my first ride on Goliath, flashback I think I would be fine, what do you think about the joker, on the seat facing the coaster you spin more so that would be a challenge also
the joker I think I would be fine on. if you do a lot of rides on goliath I think he might fail the challenge, including me. and I almost forgot, NO DRAMAMINE!!!!
Xtreme Rides TV that's one hell of a dare
Honestly this is probably my favorite coaster. There have been a few times that the line is super short and I was able to go nearly twice in a row. I wasn't able to go on the original Cyclone but I'm glad they replaced it lol.
This is why I love wicked cyclone, I can’t wait to ride it❤️🌀

I loved it. I rode it for the first time last night. Awesome. Fast. Smooth. Lots of air time. My first time going inverted. It was cool.
My home park is Great Adventure but I CRAVE Wicked Cyclone. I got to do it while I was up in MA for college. Worth the trip.
RMCs are like mature students at school, always being quiet when the teacher says too, unlike B&Ms which are rattlesnakes because they can rattle loudly.
Soul Seal Saul why would rattlesnakes be at school
You would love Outlaw Run. Best RMC there is. The drop is mind blowing.
the double bank before the last cork screw. it hurt me alot!. the fast banks. just wow
You should check out Goliath at my homepark, Six Flags Great America! It's got the best drop on any coaster I've been on! Back row is definitely the best. Yeah, the ride may be short but with a dive loop and a zero g stall it sure packs a punch. If you have a season pass I definitely recommend coming out to Six Flags Great America.
RMC has been dominating I wonder if they will try to get into the Giga coaster war eventually.
The real question is why this was posted at 2 AM.
This is a grate ride
Really great review. This is my #1 coaster.
I go to six flags New England every summer and I have yet to go on wicked cyclone because of how scary it was
I love this ride it's intense and has awesome ejector airtime and back-seat is the best
Smoothest ride? Have you ridden Batman the Dark Knight at SFNE?
Batman has a rattle. Especially when you hit the corkscrews, while WC is 100% smooth.
rode it 17 times in a day and a half... needless to say the park was pretty deserted
This is my favorite ride!
It's the best Coaster out there

You went to New England I wish I went when you went ib

The Science of Creativity they didn’t make el toro
BlockoWorld they built the wooden structure and Intamin made the track
The Science of Creativity oh yea makes sense cause they made the track ok thanks
