Decent, inverted coaster. Brilliantly themed especially the queue area, however its a bit short the ride. But it does bag some pretty mean Gs

I love that Fire and Ice have a maximum height limit. This really shows how close they get. This is definitely an awesome ride. Fire is slightly better than Ice.

The Fire Dragon provides some awesome thrills. First it starts in the station, with a winding queue themed elaborately, to the costumed ride ops and meticulous train art. The ride on Fire is slightly better than Ice, as I also rode this sucker twice, once up front in the day with a crazy drunk guy (see my TR for more references to this guy) and then again as night rolled in a couple days later. The best part about Fire is probably the Immelmans. The first one is good and all, but it is the second one closer to the main area and the Sinbad show that is wickedly forceful and yet still thrilling. Fire goes through the dueling inversions of the loop and corkscrew with Ice producing some nice effects, but the "airtime" hill as it is refered to (minimal if any airtime for me) is the only letdown of this ride as you see the riders on Ice enjoying a zero-G roll and you are just going strait basically. The flat spins are nice, always a favorite of mine on Inverts, and the dueling with Ice again adds a point to the score. Overall, slightly better than Ice but still not up to park with Inverts like Montu or even Raptor.

Amazing. Definitely one of the greatest coasters in the world. The greatness starts even before you strap in as the queue is undisputably the best in the world. Once you strap in, youre in for the ride of your life. Ascending the lift hill, I see the other people on Ice, awaiting the drop, and then there we go. One, two, three!! The other train zooms by and you hear the screams of 30 other people experiencing something supernatural. From airtime hills to immelmans to corkscrews, the whole design rocks, too. This ride is a much deserving perfect 10.

This ride is incredible. Front or Back. Airtime hill is incredible.

I really love Dueling Dragons. The line is the best of any ride out there. Try to sit in the front so you can see yourself almost hitting the other train.

Wow...this side is pure speed. Its insane, it feels like youre going to fast through everything. It never slows down till it reaches the station breaks. I loved all of it, especailly the immelman and camel back. Awsome theming and idea for ride.

This is an excellent roller coaster in its own right, but dueling with another coaster is what really makes this ride. Fire Dragon has one less inversion than the Ice Dragon, but it is more intense and features a special camelback hill early in the ride that gives a pop of airtime. I enjoyed Ice better, but Fire is still awesome. Fire packs some great g-forces. The queue for this ride is the best I have ever seen, and the theming overall is unbelievable. A must-ride, especially in the front seat.

This is a great B&M roller coaster! the Ice-side is also great but the Fire-Side has a better personality meaning, its higher, faster,and has great inversions.
