This ride is AWESOME despite what people are saying. Yeah so what, it is a very short ride. You can ride it over and over because there is virtually no wait......Even on Saturday. I suggest sitting in the back for the most thrillent experience. If you are looking for a slower, calmer ride, the front is a good place for you. This ride is a must ride.

Excalibur is actually about 200 feet longer than Corkscrew, but because of a higher lift, and a much more motion-sensitive ride, it often seems shorter.

Thanks to how far back in our park it happens to be, the lines are rarely long there, so knock yourselves out and go a couple dozen times!

Despite the fact that this is a good ride, it is time for it is time to go. I've never had to wait outside the station, and even in the station, its very vacant. Get rid of it to put in something new or bigger like a invert or floorless.

Still, the ride is very fast and there is a lot of air on the first drop, despite the trim.
