    Perfect addition to our park, but the star of the show this year is how great Raging Bull is running!!!

    I have been obsessed with back row on superman lately for the pretzel loop dive. But yeah raging bull, viper, and Batman in the back are always my favorites. Goliath is also great but the lines have been long. Also something about it just seems off to me. This sounds like heresy but it's like too much speed for such a small footprint.

      @@tylerm5774 are you familiar with RMC coasters? Too much speed is their strong suit, I think, and I’m surprised it has held up so well compared to the other topper track installations which got rough over time.

      @@ZeroCreditsRemaining Well consider Maxx force. That ride is really fast but it's way less jarring. I probably just need to sit closer to the front when I get the chance to ride it next.

    Raging Bull is the best because:
    - It's long
    - It's twisty
    - It fits with it's part in the park
    - The light immersion of having it feeling like you're on a runaway bull and terrorizing the town at high speed really sells, something not too ordinary for Six Flags coasters
    Also your friend has a fire Tidal Wave shirt, i need Tidal Wave back 😭

    I rode this at 8:30pm with the LED "club lights" on at sundown and it was a magnificent experience. The placement in the park is perfect, with amazing inverted views of American Eagle, X-Flight, & Goliath during the highest swings. The ride cycle is so long it makes it worth the wait (almost 60 minutes for me, but I imagine it will be shorter in future seasons). This is easily the best non-coaster ride in the park, and might be top 5 or 6 overall at Six Flags Great America. For those worried about the spinning, don't be. The sensations are more like the first drops on massive rollercoasters, but taken at different angles. It has more in common with coaster drops than nausea inducing spinning rides.

    Yeah definitely when I went there on the 5th, the coasters were all running great and Raging Bull is definitely the highlight of every trip I go there. Didn’t get a chance to ride Sky Striker as it had a bit of downtime and I’m still refiguring out my ride abilities after having some time away from parks. But yeah, looking forward to the future of the park and filling in a new big flat ride the park has been needing.
