It is the best stand-up coaster I have ever been on.

A good stand up coaster...although I don't think it is better than Mantis at Cedar Point. But it is better than Vortex at Paramount's Carowinds.

I've been on The Riddler's Revenge and Mantis - and I still prefer this coaster to both of those. You actually get airtime if you ride in the back row, which is totally insane.

This is a great stand-up with a twisted and compact design. It has some nice forces too. Scorcher certainly does leave your feet to the fire!

It's the best stand-up coaster I have ever been on. It's such a great ride and it's so twisted...

The Scorcher and Riddler's Revenge are the 2 best stand-up coasters on the planet! They are both good investments for Six Flags. 10/10 for both of them.

The first coaster I rode that went upside down. It is very smooth and fast paced.

This is a good stand up coaster. Smooth like most B&Ms. Its a short ride that I enjoyed. Although it certainly is not the best stand up out there by a long shot, it is a solid ride that I recommend for everyone.
