I have to admit that when Batman first opened I was unimpressed. There was just so much talk about it everywhere, the hype was never ending. In reality no coaster could live up to that amount of high expectation. But here we are three years later and I really love this smallest of floorless coasters. This impossibly smooth ride features five inversions including my all time favorite element: the zero G roll. How much do I like this element? Well frankly I dont care for looping coasters, I find going upside down underwhelming. But I LOVE the zero G roll, or at least how this coaster does it. Batman is designed so that all its elements are taken with a minimum of heavy "gs", so its actually a perfect coaster for those that want a fun but less intense experience. Batmans only problem is that like all floorless and inverted coasters, it tends to be a little too short. From the beginning of the lift hill to the brakes takes MAYBE one minute and twenty five seconds. This means that if two trains are running you WILL sit on the break run for a few seconds while waiting for the other train to leave, the coaster is just too short for the crew to have a train ready to go before the other has finished the course. If there is a line for this ride, dont worry, it usually moves rather fast.
