Pioneer Frontier
Roller coaster - 54 inches to ride
★ ★ ★ ☆
This vertical lift coaster drops riders at a 97-degree angle, after an initial 90-degree, 121-foot lift. The Ingenieur Büro Stengel coaster also features a Norwegian Loop, Cobra Roll and Double Corkscrew with a top speed of 58 mph.
Fahrenheit, named for the degree of descent, not the temperature, features an interesting array of elements executed fairly seamlessly. The vertical lift hill can be somewhat unnerving but that's par for the course. Norwegian loops on roller coasters are rare so this distinguishes Fahrenheit from similar models. All in all, the ride is a thrilling one. The one real downside is the low capacity - 12 riders per train - which results in lengthy wait times.
