Boomerang review by Gazza

by Gazza, 6 years ago
Rated 3.0 Quick thrills, but can make you feel a bit sick compared to otherwise.
Not really a star attraction.

Review Criteria

Enjoyment Good

These can be a bit rough and nauseating.

Effectiveness Good

They fill a gap for cheap thrills and fluff up the lineup, but with better rides on offer at Knotts, i never rode until the 2nd visit.

Intensity Very High

Boomerangs pack a bit of a punch, with surprisingly tight loops. All taken in quick succession, the 6 inversions can be nauseating.

Rider Comfort Good

This Boomerang ran the old train type, so rough tracking and hard restraints mean you have to brace.

Pacing Very Good

The pacing isnt bad. The inversions are quick, and the 2nd lift and drop serves to provide a breather and build anticipation for the 2nd half.

Theming/Storyline Average

No theming, and doesn't really match any of the national themed areas at Knotts.

Upkeep/Presentation Good

The ride was nearing the end of its life, so some worn paintwork.

Queue/Efficiency Good

One train means lines can be slow.
