7-Good. This is one of the few unique coasters at Wonderland. The view from the top of the mountain is decent, and the track is intertwined with the scenery pretty nicely. The ending is very abrupt, both in terms of deceleration and ride duration. - Joshua Counsil

Very thrilling! Although very short. - Thomas Furlong

This was my first coaster of this type and definitely a good one. - Steven Lee
