This ride thrills me every time I ride it. I always think I will get wet in the tunnel. And I love inversions.

The only good thing about this ride was the under-water tunnel. The rest of the ride was slow and jerky.

I liked the ride. The under water tunnel is cool and the slow corkscrews are very fun.

This was my very first roller coaster! I have to ride it everytime I go to PKD. It's not the best, but I still have a blast when I ride it!

It was ok. Nothing special. There were slow and jerky parts that banged my head pretty hard.

This ride is just okay. It has an underwater tunnel, but the problem with this ride is that it's a little jerky and hurts your head.

I like the first drop into the tunnel under the water and the loops but when you get to the corckscrew part I felt like i was literally going to fall out because how slow it was. It is also kind of jerky and sort of rough but I would ride it again.

This ride was cool. I took one back seat ride on it. The first drop into the tunnel was cool. There was only one spot of head banging, in the transition into the turn before the corks, but it wasn't really that bad. I kind of wish I had rerode, and I could have, but didn't :-/.

Just an alright ride. It combines Arrow's odd one-size-fits-all loops along with some bad trackwork. The bad track work can be seen in pictures and on ride during the two tight looping (non-inverting) turns before the corkscrews. Anaconda violently throws you around a bit and has a virtually pointless MCBR just seconds after the ride begins. The only thing I really liked was how slow it went through the final corkscrews, it really gave the fake illusion of almost falling out. It met my expectations for an old Arrow custom looping coaster, but did not exceed them.

Eh...eh....Like most of the coasters in this park, boring! It was so slow. The corkscrews were rough. The drop,the tunnel and the first loop were fun and that was it. I went first row on this ride and still thought it underaverage. like i said Eh...

I remember when I was a kid, Anaconda was THE coaster. It was constantly photographed and advertised on TV and amusement park shows because of that underwater tunnel. It was amazing looking and I couldn't wait to ride it. Only problem is that I had no idea where it was at. The TV shows would never say the name or the location of the ride. Then about 13 years later while visiting KD, I came upon Anaconda by accident and I just HAD to ride it. The underwater tunnel is amazing, but that is the only exciting thing about the ride. It is a very rough ride and like everyone has said, the corkscrews are done very slowly. You feel like you are going to fall out. I would like to think that 16 years ago Anaconda was an amazing roller coaster, because I was highly disappointed when I rode it and wouldn’t even rank it in my top 150. I recommend this ride only for the count.

This ride is still one of my favorites. That first drop and under water tunnel is great.

I love the Anaconda, it was my first upside-down coaster. Though it may play a little ping-pong with your head, it's one of the better of the older rides there.
