The ride was amazing, I rode twice before it broke, and it was great. The line take it or leave it because its your choice if you can stand long lines then stay because its worth it. Great ride, at the top get a view of the shore its great.

It was ok. Other than the drop it was kinda boring.

I waited way too long for this ride. It was a fun ride, but I prefer TTD for the theming and intensity.

Three times is the charm for me to ride this. The first two times I was at GAdv, it broke down on me while in line. Figured it would get fixxed during the day, but that did not happen. I finally got to ride it late last year twice and three times this year. All I can say is wow. This is one amazing coaster. It picks up speed QUICK and you're at the top of that tower in no time at all. The camel hump at the end adds to the ride because you're still going at an amazing speed. This is easily one of my top 10 favorite rides. It loses cool points because it is unreliable in operation. But other than that, I love Kingda Ka.

This ride is amazing! But I still prefer TTD for the great theme and awesome restraints!

So after the ride fail'd to open for me 3 vists last year.... I got my Kingda Ka ride this year.
First ride i was in the front row line. But I didnt trust the ride to stay open so I got out ad went for 1.2. The ride was OK but not great. Only the launch was good.'
For my second ride I wait'd it out and did the front. The launch was MUCH better... But still after that the ride was crap. The hill.. the drop.. and the "airhill" did NOTHING for me.

It's fun but not worth lines over 2 hours.

This ride was such a rush, I was amazed of the punch that this baby packed; it was just breath taking. Too bad that it is always breaking down, everyone needs a chance to experience this coaster and unfortunately not everyone can do that, due to its down time. I still give it a 5/5.

If you go on this ride get in the front seat. When i first went on it I sat in the middle and the ride was ok. The second time I went on it I went in the front seat, Thats when I got addicted to this ride.

I was so lucky when i got on this ride. The park wasnt too crowded and I only waited around 20 minutes whereas other people have had to wait up to 3 hours. The ride itself was AMAZING. It was super fast and super exciting. The launch pushes you back in your seat and shoots you up but i think the best part was when the train slowed slightly at the tippy-top and than you sped back down to the ground! Kinga Ka is the tallest coaster in the U.S. and is A MUST GO FOR ALL COASTER LOVERS!

Get on the front row. Only word to describe that is a-m-a-z-i-n-g.

KK's launch takes the word "intense" to a whole new level. However, the coaster is too short.
