Fun Fact: This is my 200th coaster review!! It's amazing to think I've discussed that many rides on this channel over the past several years...and there's still many more to come!
What are some of your favorite reviews you've written?
I don't 'write' the reviews, all my audio is recorded on the spot. Really the only videos I script are the parodies. I don't know if I have any favorite coaster reviews...I make them, post them, then never watch them ever again, so I don't even remember most of what I've said in them!
Congrats
Coaster studios your reviews are great!
1. Congrats! Your hard work has paid off, also I wanted to tell you the physics in a simple way (I’m a nerd). What RMC did is reduce the friction as much as possible. They did this with a smaller train, since it’s a single rail, and as not as much actually touching the train as other coasters. This reduces the rate at which the coaster slows down, and keeps it hauling more. I have never rode it myself, hope to ride railblazer in my near future, but this is what happens based off of a lot of videos I’ve seen. Hope this helps :)
Taylor: "This ride may even be too intense for me"
Also Taylor: "I rode this ride 27 times"
TheRealSweedie haha! That got me as well.
Taylor: “I wouldn’t do this more than once.”
Me: “ but I rode railblazer more than 50 times...”
I didn't say DON'T do it more than once, only that I imagine there will be many people where once is good enough for them. Just depends on your personal preferences.
Coaster Studios true it’s was kind of just a joke but no way coaster studios liked my comment!
2:56 it's also the only park with 4 coasters designed by Alan Schilke. (Road Runner and Batman are his designs as well)
I will never forget my first ride on Wonder Woman. This is a coaster I underestimated going into... I expected it to be a fun, small scale RMC that would enjoyable but not necessarily super aggressive. I was all relaxed on the lift hill, taking in the stunning quarry wall and park surroundings. Then out of nowhere... that first drop... back row... first time... the only other element that has left me that appalled is X2’s first drop... APPALLED that I was experiencing such a sensation and that it’s even possible. Easily the loudest I’ve ever screamed on a coaster.... “yanked” is absolutely the best word to describe it, and it truly has to be experienced to be believed!
So are you saying you truly dislike the ride and its not enjoyable at all...or just that its for people who rely like intence rides.
Ah the McDonald’s Golden Fry Coaster
At least if they ever somehow lose licensing for DC characters they can retheme it without even repainting it.
Lol 😂
TheSpanish Potato bruh if they Theme this to McDonald’s it they lose the DC licensing that would be the most hilarious thing to ever exist
@@sethvlogs7751 I kinda hope that DC says that they can't have the Wonder Woman theme on this specific ride so that we can have McDonalds French Fry: The Ride.
TheSpanish Potato omg yes that would be awesome
Only 3 things are certain in life. Death, taxes and Taylor making great coaster reviews. 🎢🎢🎢
I can say from personal experience on this ride that it is the most insane aggressive crazy intense coaster I have ever been on it is out of control insane I loved it so much I got 30 rides on it but that wasn’t enough for me I wanted to keep riding
"Should have got a B and- "
actually, no
*B&M girl has changed her username to: RMC girl*
Jersey Devil WILL HAVE a moving loading station. Cause it will have 4 trains of 12 cars each
Great Adventure said it would be a moving load station at Eastcoaster.
Yeye
Hey Taylor me again I’ve been watching sense the days when the intro didn’t even move!! You made my childhood and got me OBSESSED with roller coasters and i still watch till this day have a good life
Totally agree, the Raptors are definitely the most aggressive coaster out there. I think I can honestly say this was my favorite steel coaster on my Texas trip last year...
0:21 I keep imagining Taylor and Takoda in the Coaster Center part of the Steel Curtain Parody.
2:01 Taylor I believe the word you are looking for is Yeet 😂
The reason the pacing can be so fast and all the elements so tight is the train design with the single rail. Not only is it single file, but you're also sitting down lower. This makes your center gravity closer to and more centered over the track overall, which means your body, and the train, experiences less forces and strain, relatively speaking, to a more traditional design.
Because of that they can make everything more compact without putting unnecessary wear and tear on the ride itself, and without going overboard on the forces riders experience.
Perfect summery.
Very accurate observation there. Looks amazing fun
5:15
Hey the airplane is famous
It's a great shot!
if you pause at the right moment it looks like the front row rider is holding the airplane
You know you can trust this review because the Golden Lasso forces you to tell the truth.
I’ve ridden 6 RMC’s, and this is the only one to have genuine good positive force intensity. When you leave the off axis hill and twist up into the S bend, its some pretty positives. I marathoned this thing one morning with around 8 rides before even I couldn’t handle it any more and had to go get some less intense airtime on Iron Rattler. This thing is a powerhouse. One of my favorite coasters.
Cant wait to see a park purchase a 200 ft raptor, that ride would haulllllll
300-500ft T-rex ftw. Raptor tracks bigger brother. RMC claims the bigger version of this track could go as high as 500ft. Just need a park to order one 😉
Thought I did well when I rode it 18 times in just over 2 days. Taylor got 27 rides in 2 days. Great ride! Great review!
Shoutout to that AMAZING ride-op staff at 3:49. As long as there was no one else waiting, they just kept sending me through. It was a very surreal experience -- probably a once-in-a-lifetime experience! -- being able to marathon the best coaster in the park!
alkankondo89 nonono the guy at 4:00 is the absolute best. he was so damn funny when I was there on that same day that taylor was
@@amusementcentral5633 Oh, yeah! You mean the guy with the backpack at 4:00? Yes, he and the other guy at 4:00 (the one with glasses on the left) -- they were the ones who hooked me up! I made sure to mention them positively in a survey from Six Flags that I filled out a few days later!
@@alkankondo89 they deserve a raise... GOSH DARN CORONA
I have a feeling Jersey Devil will feel even more intense considering it will have 12 cars
See, I'm not so sure about that. It's possible it is actually less intense because of the longer trains, where they draw out the transitions so it isn't as compact and crazy. It will be tough to say!
@@CoasterStudios I mean yeah but at the same time look at el toro it has long trains and look at its elements. Towards the end its tight and gives amazing airtime
@@GMDVinny Exactly, I believe it will still be a great ride, I just wouldn't use the word "insane" as it's not going to be as "whippy" as this raptor model. It's gonna be a different type of experience.
i think it would be better if Jersey Devil was a T-rex
Coaster Studios it still looks really whippy judging from the construction updates, so the whip in the back row could be better than Railblazer/WWGLC’s whip, but who knows for sure
I made a review of this and you made a lot of good points I didn't mention. I did it 9 times in 2 days, so I did it less but I still had bruises on my collarbone. I had to grab the restraints and separate them on the lift hill and on the brakes because it was so uncomfortable. But still an airtime machine.
Rode railblazer 10 times this past December one day, couldn’t get enough. That whip off the drop in the back row is amazing. Will probably like Golden Lasso better just for the scenery/quarry wall.
Great adventure is my home park, and I’m so mad that it is closed, I haven’t ridden a coaster since like November
Last time I roller coaster was Mystic Timbers 3 days before Christmas
Yeah? Well I haven't ridden one since July 2017. I was planning on doing Jersey Devil this year, but I don't know if that's happening now.
My boyfriend forgot he had his phone in his pocket and lost it to this ride, straight into the water below lol
It’s so funny seeing all the glasses, masks, keys, phones, and other stuff in the water below.
This ride has some serious force. I 100% agree with “yank” lol
Make extra sure your pockets are empty before this one
All the switchbacks were full when I went and I waited 3 and a half hours to ride. They were running all the trains but 3 or 4 seats on each car. But this ride is amazing glad to have it at my home park.
Just imagine... just imagine... this raptor with only a lap bar... total madness. And Alan is back at it again creating mahem
I rode it three times... all in the first week it was open... after the third, I just couldn't get used to it. aggressive is DEFINITELY the word or term I'd use to describe it... it's very fast, very "whipy" and that drop literally steals your breath. i enjoyed it... but I don't think I'd ever do it again. that's also evident in the line (cue) as it routinely gets shorter and shorter.
I rode Railblazer last year, and intense is a good word! I wear glasses to see and normally have zero problems with them on coasters, but they made me store them for this one. And it was definitely needed! Also the sheer power of the ride gave me a headache for a couple minutes. I rode it twice, but those rides were spaced out. I didn’t have a problem with the shoulder restraints, but my shoulders are narrow to begin with.
I love this ride. I was stationed in Texas for a couple years, so I got the chance to go to both Over Texas and Fiesta Texas multiple times. Its a tough competition between Fiesta Texas and Magic Mountain (My home-park) I think. Guess I'll have to go to both again at some point to really decide huh.
I'm hoping to go in September assuming all this is over
Ditto actually. Swinging by after a cruise, assuming again that this is all over.
I think that might be all gone in June covid 19
@@thecrazycoaster6635 It won't be gone, not until there is a vaccine, but hopefully we can be in more of maintenance posture that'll allow things to open with restrictions.
But they said it dies in heat Coronavirus so I just put it prediction out there
@@thecrazycoaster6635 Wuhan isn't a cold city in the winter. The truth is we won't know if summer helps until that gets here. Conoraviruses are often the cause of a common cold and you can get colds in the summer - so we'll probably still need to be vigilant, but not totally shut down.
I just moved to Texas and live 4 hours away from this and SeaWorld. I'm definitely gonna have to plan a trip because this looks so fun
This ride was so dope I rode in the front. Definitely an accurate description and I’d so do this again!
I think it's a great concept, reminds me of a Hot Wheels track. It makes so much sense I can't believe a manufacturer hasn't done this before now. It seems like a natural progression in Coasters.
Imagine what a 300 - 500ft T-rex could be like. For those unaware, trex is the raptor tracks big brother. Wider cars, higher lifts etc if anyone builds/buys one that is.
2:08 That kids face says it all 😂
Looks great. This made my #1 list when it came out. Just watching it feels like a treat. It will be interesting to see how more or less an intense a larger version of the Jersey Devil will vs this one. BTW, i love that Jersery Devil themeing.
Rode it several times this week. Interestingly, the harness actually left scars/bruisers on my shoulders, as described, which I noticed later. Also that corkscrew/zero-g roll (midway) was the best I've ever experienced, you just float upside down, really cool.
When these things were launched I thought the footage was sped up. They look awesome! Great video as always, cheers
This ride seems SO FRAGILE!!
Just rode this today and boy i freaking hated it, I'm not scared of any coaster but those restraints are so dang tight it bruised my shoulders. I was riding in the back which i had no idea was the worst seat according to your video, but yeah definitely at the end i was seeing black spots everywhere nearly passed out lol 😆. I couldn't imagine riding it 20+ times since it hurts so damn much. Good review!!
2:07 that kid in the front sums it up perfectly
That twisted airtime hill is the best airtime I’ve ever experienced 💯 My advice to avoid shoulder bruises is to have them put the restraint down as far as they can (usually a no no, but not on this) so the straps don’t have to do the work. The shoulder straps definitely left bruises one time they didn’t put it down far enough
This ride is incredible
Hey Taylor hope your having a good quarantine let’s hope the parks open back up soon
I think they will open up
My #1 bucket list going to Georgetown to a flight school so I will get one day I can go back so I can ride it.
We memers call this the "Yeet Seat"
No
YEEEEEEEEEE
YEET
This makes me excited to be getting jersey devil at my home park if the prototype is this good
I'm so excited. I'm going to be upset if they clone. Great Adventure is my home park too, and it is the first original coaster in a long time!
Deadass!
Good review Taylor. Amusing that I don't suffer hard financial troubles from the COVID-19 pandemic, my brother and I may launch a Texas coaster tour in 2021. I don't want to go further in depth as it is too personal. Texas has been on my radar for 3 years and do want to launch The Lone Star State Coaster Tour. Wonder Woman is definitely a bucket list coaster. When you posted your review of Iron Rattler in 2017 that is when you allowed Fiesta Texas to grab my attention. I had other parks in mind to visit KI and CP. This in turn allowed the trip to be put on the back burner. It is in the blueprint stage, that and I am brainstorming a California trip in 2022 and a possible Northeast tour in 2023 (mainly to revisit Great Adventure; Last visit was in 2014 and we could do much as the park was packed to the gills for Fright Nights). As soon and the pandemic subsides and I am back at work, that is when I'll be working on going. Anyway. Stay safe Taylor and I hope all is well.
Silver Ticket Awards?
I love the rollout of the Raptors, west coast, south, east coast, and dont forget the North Dakotans! Makes it very easy for many Americans to experience one. Compared to the I Box where they were first in texas and took a long time to get to the east coast
Or B&M Wing Coasters, which are confined to the middle of the country.
3:39 DAMN THEY GOT STAPLED
I live in the Houston area, and since we don't have a Six Flags chain, this is my home park. We usually plan a two day trip, and we try to avoid Wonder Woman for the first day. Every time I've been to Fiesta Texas, Wonder Woman and Batman the Ride have both been on maintenance for half of the day. Wonder Woman's a great ride, but I wish Fiesta Texas didn't have to get the Raptor clone. The clone is so compact in a pretty nice area of where the ride is. Don't get me wrong, the ride is amazing, but I wish we could've gotten something like the Jersey Devil. That would've worked so well with the quarry wall.
This is more violent than El Toro! I'm kinda scared to get on one of these now
Me too though I will probably have fun and also I want to every single operating roller coaster in the world
Trust me, this thing is absolutely mental
I love the moving walkway loading area of the ride
Do you think Jersey Devil will beat it?
I think so, but its tough to say until we actually ride it!
Max Hagenauer we need testing footage at least before we can decide, who knows for sure what the double length trains will do
@@3rectilefunction200 Not double length, 50% more length.
@@CoasterStudios If you are able to ride it given this pandemic.
I agree with you on how aggressive this things is. I'd even say it's kinda hard to ride, but totally worth it every time
I oppose that statement of this not being a grandmas ride. When I went to Fiesta Texas in November, I saw a Grandma board the train, and she wasn’t scared
A few years ago, I rode Skyrush, and there was a grandma and her husband in line behind me. She was annoyed because none of her grandkids were brave enough to ride it with her. She'd gotten a cortisone shot in her hip so she wouldn't have to deal with a cane when she wanted to ride. I want to be that bad-ass when I'm a Coaster Senior.
Lit
Nothing scares Grandma, she’s been there done that kind of life! 😉😁
I was at silverwood yesterday and a grandma in a Jean skirt was back row on stunt pilot 😂 very bold and impressive of her
I loved RailBlazer, I was only able to ride it 6 times since I wanted to ride all the other coasters and the park was closing at 6 that day, but I guess it’s a blessing and a curse cause restraints were only beginning to hurt, but that thing is wild, here’s me just imagining one being at lagoon, that would be pretty dank, but long story short RailBlazer is the best ride at CF Great America, but just BARELY beating Gold Striker
Man, I wish I could ride one of these things
Jersey Devil will be taller and longer, not a copy of the current two. It will be interesting to see what if anything RMC changes in regards to layout etc.
Thanks for the review. Here's hoping Cedar Point (home park) gets a Raptor soon, or better yet a Trex 😜😉
Tatsu and railblazer are the most intense coasters I’ve ridden so far.
My first ride was in the front and I wasn't prepared. I screamed of joy when I went down the first drop and when it was over, i didn't know that happened.
I just rode this ride and intense is the correct way to describe it
The future of six flags are single rail coasters. They are cheap and are fun intense coasters. So these seem like they will probably pop up in a lot of six flags park.
Nice shot with the plane 🇨🇦
I went on the Railblazer at California's Great America(same thing as Wonder Woman but opposite directions) and I didn't even remember what happened, it was so fast!!!!!
These look amazing.. I'll be riding this in September and maybe it'll be my 400th coaster
Can’t wait till Joker opens up at Six Flags Magic Mountain which is also gonna be a RMC Raptor which was confirmed by a staff member when I went
i went on this. some dude passed out and the meds came, he came back right before we went on the ride and got back in line. LOL
2:57 now Six Flags Magic Mountain is gonna join company with their new coaster
Never been on an RMC but hope to do all of them at one point in my lifetime
This was my 11 year old sons first coaster. He said it left him with a disability of not being able to walk straight lol. The intensity level on this on is off the charts
Great review as always. Love this coaster and the park. I prefer this park to my home park Six Flags over Texas. Super intense and it does hurt your shoulders after just a few rides. Planning on going to ride Jersey Devil next year in the summer. Can't Wait!
You should do maxx force vs. full throttle
I fully agree, except, i didn't enjoy it. I rode this 3 times a few days ago, and gosh, I was shocked after the first round... and dizzy af! It's just too aggressive. it's very smooth, but it's extremely rough in its own way. It manhandles you thru the track, and I could guarantee that it injures some people during its life, that's just how unforgiving it is. Superman, which is right next to it, is 10x more enjoyable.
Laughs while riding 200 foot tall
Great vid, Taylor! Hope you stay healthy! 👍
My theory for why it runs so fast is because of a very low center of gravity relative to the track. I believe this means that when the trai twists or turns, less torque is applied on the track, reducing the vibration and friction, speeding it up.
my bf and i visited texas early february and after riding this in the back four times he had a bruise on his shoulder :( but as much as this ride hurts, it’s super fun
I would actually call six flags Great America the prototype testing ground They got the first B&M coaster. One of the original wing coasters. One of the original B&M hypers and the first one in the six flags chain. The first S&S air launch in the US in years. And finally the very first B&M inverted coaster.
For big budget rides I'd agree, Great America has a good number of firsts. Especially when looking at B&M specifically.
I can't wait for a Raptor Hyper or Giga Coaster. Oh man!
If this is that intense, imagine what Jersey Devil is going to be like! It's gonna be one hell of a ride!
I haven’t ridden a raptor but I hopefully will be riding Jersey Devil this year if all goes well and I’m super pumped.
Same, we’ve just gotta hope the park opens by summer lol
We have to believe.
At 6:21 the airplane flyover looks so cool.
27 times in two days? I've been to this park 6 times and every time had to wait nearly two hours in line each time.
When the T-rex model comes out maybe there will be more parks with 2 RMC's. Right now they only offer similar reworks of old rides or new ones in the same style. Any park with multiple rollercoasters just isn't on the market for a compact low capacity ride.
I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeee this ride I ridden it 3 months ago and I was like this is easily one of the most intense coaster I ever ridden. A lot of people say it’s 90 mph but idk. I still don’t think this ride is better then iron rattler but it easily makes a top 20
5:17 looks like their holding the plane
I’m gonna be riding my first raptor (jersey devil) in July
Thanks for this review. I’ve been reading so many ppl saying they hated it because it was so painful. Making me nervous for that reason =\
Ive heard of people getting whiplash on this one. It was fun but had a kind of sketchy carnival ride feel. The "is this really safe?" Vibe. Rattled A LOT when we rode too.
Hi Taylor I’m a big fan!!
So close to 200 reviews!
this is my 200th review!
You didn’t lie about getting bruises, they STAPLED me in. I BEGGED for them to loosen the strap, had two operators try to make more comfortable to no avail. Other than that, loved the ride.
Taylor we need a ROTR recreation asap please
Thank you, The World
Bruh I love your vids they are so good
Back seat on this is mind boggling intense. You do get absolutley YANKED over the drop
I live in New England and I'm hoping Jersey Devil can get up and running this year despite the pandemic
My mans face in the front seat at 2:08 sums up exactly what he just said
Maybe the intensity will keep the line down. I can't see how this at a busy park and flashpass in full force wouldn't take forever to get through the line. For some reason I feel loke SFOT will get one of these next if they ever get Aquaman open, which I am worried about its line also.
