It is a great wooden roller coaster and I like how fast you go on it.

The flybys make this coaster feel so much faster

I wish they would run Tiger more often. They usually only run Lion. But still a great ride. I don't know why this isn't talked about more, it's a dueling woodie. usually, in trip reports, people only talk about Montu and Kumba.

Absolutely unbelievable! This is my third favorite wooden coaster. If they ran the other side more often I would give it a higher rating, but the speed and unbelievable overall quality of this ride makes up for it. It is a sin to leave the park without riding this ride at least once.

The airtime is great! With the speed and the drops there were times that I felt that I was going to fly out of my seat. I have yet to experence the other track as it was closed for maintance.
