Alpengeist is a massive invert, but is bigger better? No, not in this case. The ride certainly is intimidating, overlooking the entire park and Busch, as usual, did an excellent job at theming this ride. The snow banks during the second half are an excellent touch in my opinion. Well, the first half is by far the best part of the ride since it is absolutely huge and the Gs on the drop are incredible. Now for the disappointments. First came a forceless Immelman. Its just too big for its own good and is taken way too slowly. The following loop didnt blow me away, but it actually had some moderate forces. After that came a very jerky cobra roll and then the roughest moment Ive ever experienced on a B&M on the MCBR. Then came a good zero-G roll followed by a disappointing corkscrew and then some dull and very slow turns. Alpengeist just is too big for its own good and is just beneath Montu, another highly rated but disappointing coaster.
