The main plus of the Python is its setting. The corkscrews work well with the beautiful tropical foilage with an almost surreal effect. Its one of the easiest places to get a great up-close shot of a looper in an exceptional setting. Of course if youre not into scenery or dont take a lot of pictures this wont save the ride for you. Python is short. All you really get is a 70 drop, a banked turn, a couple semi-rough corkscrews and thats it. I think its a good ride for beginners and for riders who want to get their feet wet before heading to the big leagues. I dont think that BGT should remove if for that reason. (My dad had fun recounting the THREE drops he felt on this monster) It is from the 70s though so Im not sure what the other Theme Park Critics were expecting. The line can get unreasonably long for such a short ride and it is a tad rough. Overall, its not bad really, but compared to the average steel coaster out there its well below average even if it is a looker. Final Rating - 3.5 (Bad-Approaching Below Average)
