SooperDooperLooper is a great looping coaster. This was my first looping coaster, because it has a loop, but isn't too scary. The line is usually short, so don't go on this ride early, and then wait for the other rides for ever! The ride takes you up, then you go down the hill, right into the loop. The cool part is that after the loop, you go through the loop, and around. The ending of this ride is a little crazier than Trailblazer, but not much! SooperDooperLooper is one of the best looping coasters around!

This ride bores me to tears. After riding Laser this ride is like nothing. It's practically a mine train coaster with a loop.

This ride should be torn down to make room for new rides, even if they arn't roller coasters. It is just time for it to go. Plus.... Who would ride it when Great Bear is sitting next door.

This ride should not be torn down, even though it sucks. It really does not take up much room, not enough room to build anything worthwhile, plus it is historicin that it is the first looping coaster on the east coast.

This is a great coaster and I really enjoyed it.
It is Sooper, and Dooper and is a Looper.
It's Sooperdooperlooper!

The perfect choice for people who never rode loops before, and a great choice for those classic looper lovers. A nice long drop, a loop, a tunneled helix, a bunny hop, overall a very well balanced coaster. Schwarzkopf knew how to make casters very well. I consider it more of a family looper, given it'sn not really intense, but still is a good ride.

I liked the ride and its layout was fun.. But I wish the park would let it run wild.. Take off the trims and such....

This was my very first roller coaster at the age of five or six. I loved it so much then and I still do. Even though it's old and not that thrilling I still think its a classic and needs to stay. This is one of those rides oyu get on when you don't want to wait in any of the other lines because it never has a line.

This ride sucks. The loop is retarded and it is painful.

It's hard to believe that this was the next coaster after Revolution. It really seems to be lacking after you enter the tunnel until the helix. It kind of meanders along the hillside for a bit. I know Schwarzkopft knew how to use terrain better than that, but it really is a superb coaster for starters. A great family ride. There are not enough loopers out there that are good for young kids. Don't expect this ride to amaze you, but it is pleasant, enjoyable, and historic.

The loop is a lot of fun without a OTSR. The last helix is great. It's just a shame that there is nothing really between those two elements. I enjoyed the ride and appreciated its history and designer but I knew there were better and cooler Schwarzkopf creations out there left that I'd want to get on. Great Intro coaster.

I thought this was a fun coaster. Good for the beginner. Everybody has to start somewhere.
