^ Oh yeah! You can stand just outside of Ninja's station at the exit and watch trains coming in to see peoples reaction. You will not see one smile from anyone above the age of 25. All you will see is a train load of people who are wondering what the hell just happened and are currently making a deal with there own god of vowing never to ride that again.

It literally feels like a ninja just worked your butt over for 3 minutes. ITS TERRIBLE!!!!

Lol, I think I just got lucky, Spook warned me it was rough, didnt chance it on the Cyclone after I got off so easy with Ninga.
Honestly I thought Dolly had some of the roughest ride of any park I have been.

Cyclone at Six flags Over Georgia is definitely one of the most uncomfortable coasters I've been on. The cars (for some strange reason) are small and really cram you in there, and the coaster, while fun, can really leave you with some pain when you get off. I actually got a Georgia Cyclone shirt to commemorate the experience :lol:

Theme wise absolutely
Our second ride wasnt as bad, but younreally shouldnt have to brace yourself for the whole ride to not get beat up

Dollywood has rough rides?!?!? Gwazi and Georgia Cyclone are the roughest rides I've ever been on. Nothing at Dollywood.

Oh yeah, MM and Blazing Fury were physically painful and came pretty close to ruining my day.

Blazing Fury was rough for me but not THAT rough. Mystery Mine wasn't rough at all.

BF hurt my manhood... not very thrilled with that and will never ride it again. MM if you didn't brace yourself with your legs it was a beater, even with the Qbot we only rode it twice due to the fact it was rough.

The Georgia Cyclone is a nightmare. It isn't even fun to ride any more. When it first came out is was an awesome coaster, but after a while it was just painful. And after the flooding in Atlanta a few summers ago they had it closed. Don't know if they repaired it and got it up again or not, but unless it got a lot smoother I have no interest.

Agreed. Blazing Fury was still bearable, albeit a really dumb ride. Mystery Mine wasn't rough at all, but then again I was at Dollywood of that coaster's 2nd year.

Well this is the first time I've ever heard someone complain about Blazing Fury due to the roughness, rather than the set quality.

Are you referring to the first drop? If you're in the front car you don't start gaining speed until you're going up, so that can clear your sinuses. All you gotta do is hold on to something and you're fine.

Not gonna lie. Ghost Rider at Knotts Berry Farm was by far the roughest coaster I have ever been on. I can't imagine it could get any worse then that.

Yes, the whole thing was a waste and you would have to pay me to ride it again.
I am no wuss... it was straight up painfull and holding or braceing yourself is fine and dandy if you are aware of the situation, however new riders don't have a glue and are fair game I guess. Having to hold on/brace yourself so you dont feel pain (like I did on my 2nd MM ride) are not the definitions of a smooth, or good, ride to me.
JMOs.

Ghost Rider was a sweet ride other than my car having a bum wheel, making it extremely rough.
