The second longest wooden coaster in the world, is one of the best wooden coasters in the world. The loop as part of the wooden coaster makes the ride great even though it is a little rough.

This is a woodie with an great twist, upside down that is. Don't let people convince you not to ride it, you will make it trough one ride. 8/10

Big, rough, and not very much fun. The trains really need to be changed for this ride to be enjoyable for guests over 6 feet.

One of the biggest blunders in roller coaster history. A long, boring, unimaginative layout - all it consists of is 4 or 5 huge, painful helixes broken up by the loop, which is actually a sigh of relief from the rest of the ride. New trains with a new restraint system might solve a lot of the painful roughness, but it would still be a boring ride either way. 2/10

I didn't think this ride was that rough... Maybe I can just tolerate that.

Not the best but the loop makes up a little for that.

It is sooo crazy and fast. The drop and the loop were the best part of the ride. The trains were a bit cramped and had little to no leg room. There needs to be more woodies like this one. PKI has the woodies under control.

What a waste of all that lumber. Holiday World could have built three fantastic rides from all of that good wood. It's amazing that the world's tallest and fastest woodie is also one of the most boring. No surprises, no airtime, no twists and few real hills. (The loop is fun, though!) Hopefully, one day, Paramount will learn that size doesn't matter. They could take The Beast and its offspring and make six excellent coasters. (And learn to let the masters, like CCI or GCI, do the job!)
The park itself is clean and well run. I give them points for that. It's just a pity the best ride in the park is an Arrow suspended coaster. Go figure...??? (Same for Canada's Wonderland!) May a B&M inverted, an Intamin hyper and a GCI twister loom in their near futures. I wish them no ill will.

This is the biggest "POS" coaster in the world. And it needs to die now. DONT RIDE IT! There is a reason this thing never has a line... IT SUCKS SO MUCH!.

I wondered why there was NO LINE to get on this ride and discovered it was for a reason. This ride is NOT FUN. I literally had to hold my head with my hand during the ride to keep from getting whiplash, and my daughter, three inches over the height limit, ended up with a bloody lip and bruised back. They should change the name of this ride to "Son of a Concussion". The poor design results in a ride that is too rough and jarring to be fun.

Rough to the point of not being enjoyable.
The only thing that redeems it is the loop.
The Beast is a much better ride.

Absolutely horrible ride. I'd be embarassed to have this ride in my park. To have the world tallest fastest and only looping wooden coaster...but yet so few are willing to ride it anymore really speaks to how terrible this coaste is.
Somebody grab me some lighter fluid and some matches.

It totally stank. The restraint hurt my ribs, and it was overall painful. I wanted to get off after the first helix. It should be taken down, but not burned (too much CO2 would be released).

Burn, baby, burn!!!!
Seriously, somebody needs to light this thing on fire, and replace it with a REAL wooden coaster, preferrably one from GCII or Intamin (El Toro, anyone?).
