Just going to add to the overwhelming consensus that this ride was fantastic.
We waited for front row which is highly recommended.
The opening launch with the video projected raptors running beside the train is a nice touch that some will likely miss.
The first half is just a lot of fun, and the Raptor statues work as they are larger then I was expecting. There is also some "dino noises" that give them some life.
The close calls within the rock work adds a lot of tension.
The second half is amazing...starting with that top hat, where you feel huge ejector air time, into that steep drop. While intense, it's over quick enough that I think most will be able to handle.
the first upside down stall is great, and timed just right.
Finally, the "Roll" over the water is the star of the entire attraction. It's my pick for the best roller coaster element I've ever been on personally. You literally feel you will fly into the water. It's quite the thrill.
I just can't believe what a home run this is. The fact that IOA now has Hulk, Hagrid, and this makes for an incredible experience for coaster fans.
Sadly we only rode once, as we were with a 11 year old that wasn't in too coasters, and we felt guilty making her wait with the rest of us again. If it hadn't been for this, I would have gone right back in line.
10/10 from me.
Also, posted wait time was 60 mins, and actual time was 40 mins, with a few extra mins to get front row...worth it.
