Reader reviews of Nitro
Kudoes to this B&M Hypercoaster. One of my favorites. Another smooth ride with a great ist hill. Good Bunny hops and a long scenic ride. One of the best ou there. - Joe Schwartz Awesome B&M hypercoaster. I think it still has one of the best first drops on any coaster. The airtime is great and the height and speeds are highly exhilarating. Hit this one up anytime you visit SFGA. - Derrick O. Foreman The relative lack of restraint and no true loops makes this an enjoyable ride, especially in the back rows and at night. The airtime is tremendous. This is one lap restraint you want locked firmly in place. - Jean Seo-Park I came in with high expectations for my first B&M hyper, and for the most part, I was not disappointed. If I sound harsh, it is because I am talking of the places where I was disappointed, but I enjoyed the ride very much. I sat in the 3rd to last row, as the first two and back two rows were filled. The ride was a good night ride as it leaves the main area of the park. I also enjoyed the seats as the rider feels very open. The first drop was great, as was the trip until the turnaround, which I think could be made more interesting. The way back provided some good floater air, up until the helix. The helix added some variety to the hills, and was pretty intense. The little hills up until the helix and after did not do too much for me. And, honestly, what’s the point of a MCBR with like 90 percent of the ride done (I understand the need of brakes, but why so late). 9/10 - Jake Jones 8.5... really expected a lot of airtime. I not only got the front, but the back, too! Ok-good airtime, but no where near Apollo's chariot's and Goliath's (SFOG) airtime... Still, amazing speed and length, but I think that this really needed more airtime. Don't get me wrong, it was fun, incredibly smooth, and has great restraints, but not the airtime I was looking for. It still had some of the minimal "zero-g's", but no airtime that punched you into your restraint. So, a little disappointing. - Eli Katzman the longest airtime i have ever had on a ride. one of the best rides in the park. a must to go on. 10 ouuta 10. - Carlo Mangiafreno Best ride in the park in my opinion. Only ride I will be sure to get on during every single visit to the park. - Christopher Palma Fun and great airtime, and the restraints are super-comfortable, but not quite as scary as I would have hoped. - K P Nitro is awesome. Great airtime hills and twists. Back seat is a must on this one. I still give the edge to apollos chariot. - Christy Shuman
