The Whipper is a fun whip at Knoebels that is still a fun ride. Located towards the front of the park to the right, the Whipper is housed within a long arena. Along the top of the building is a neon red sign with the rides name on it. The Whippers floor is slick and there are many cars each seating up to 2 people. Because of the Whippers good capacity, its generally a walk-on. Knoebels loads the Whipper quickly and youre restrained by a lap bar. Beginning the ride is a bell ringing. Slowly traveling down the straightaways, its a fun sensation to be whipped around the tight corners. Put your hands in the air to get a better whip. The turns werent as fast as Rye Playlands Whip, but it was fun. Also, Knoebels ran the Whipper for a long time. Overall, the Whipper is a great classic ride that is much better than the Flying Tigers whip (Zamperla kiddie whip). Anyone who enjoys whips shouldnt miss the Whipper.
