This is my favorite woodie. Loads of airtime and speed. It is amazing that you have not seen a ride like this before because the design is so simple but it is extremly effective. If you are not into airtime and prefer twisting then it is probably not worth the trip, otherwise it was well worth the 6 hr. drive just to ride this coaster.

It is a good ride but it is not original -it has practically the same layout as the Blue Streak at Conneaut Lake Park, with the addition of a little more height and a few more hills. But, the Blue Streak has that "high tech" map that shows the trains progress and only the best riding and best kept trains, NAD Century Flyers, youll find anywhere.

NAD did make fantastic trains, though I am also partial to PTC. Anything is better then Morgan trains


There are countless coasters that use this layout, like the Williams Grove Cyclone, or the long defunct Million Dollar Coaster, that was a very large single out and back coaster.

Yes, there are several similar ... but none to this scale. I believe that is was ALGP is referring to. It seems like a very basic idea ... take an "out and back" coaster and make it "waaaaaaay out and back." make the hills huge and hte bunny hops packed with air ... basically, take all the good stuff of an out-and-back and make it bigger better and faster.
