Montu was my first inverted coaster, and it remains the best one I ever rode. I remember being surprised that there was absolutely no line for the Montu--I took it as a sign that the ride was bad. Obviously my prediction was incorrect. After opting out of Mind Eraser in Six Flags New England because it was supposed to give you a killer headache, I was nervous Montu would be jerky and bang my head around, but the ride was one of the smoothest coasters I have ever been on! The inversions were impeccably timed--a perfect blend between power and agility. My favorite was probably the batwing element. I especially loved how, on inverted coasters such as this one, I rode on the outside of the loops with my legs in the air. That gave a totally different feel to all the inversions--I felt like I was flying! The Egyptian theme was very tasteful and clever--just elaborate enough for you to notice it in between screaming your lungs out, but not so ostentatious that it took away from the ride. This ride is definately in my top ten, and if youre staying in Orlando, definately take the hour trip south and try out this amazing coaster!
