The ultimate air time machine. This coaster was short but sweet.

It's one of the best hyper coasters in the world.

This coaster is so much fun. It's a lot shorter than a lot of other hypers though, but it leaves you wanting more. The airtime is un-describable. It is very fun. Even at the end this coaster is going very fast because there is no mid-course break run. It's great!

Without a doubt the best hyper-coaster on the planet. After I ride this thing, I wish Magnum and Steel Force had half the balls Phantom's Revenge has. It doesn't matter how short it is, if it was strung out anymore it would lose its power.

I love this ride because it has the imfamous first drop and the even better second drop and ties it all togeter with great air time. All this without the head knocking over the sholder restraints!

Phantom's Revenge is the best!!!!! I love this ride. It's very exciting and the air time is GREAT!!! I swear if those lap bars were not there i would have been ejected out of my seat in a second. The speed is great too. It may be a short ride but its still very fun. Everyone should ride this ride.

OK, was I on the same roller coaster as everyone else? Granted Phantom's Revenge is a fun ride but its far from the best hyper ever. But thats all PR is... a fun ride. Nothing exciting about it at all. The second drop feels like a slow decent down a hill. No type of airtime at all. Then the maneuvers are executed a bit rough at times. When you go over the bunny hops, it actually feels like you hit an actual bump in the road first and then hop over it. Its done roughly to say the least. Its a bit short, but thats fine because we all know about the space problems Kennywood has. But PR I must say didnt get much Revenge over its predecessor. Everyone ride it sure, but me personally I was a bit let down.

This thing is crazy filled with AIRtime! The dive under Thunderbolt is amazing. #7 on my list!

This is a very fun ride. The duration is more like over 2:00... I timed the chain lift on the first hill... got 1:20... O.O

Seems overrated, but it still a good ride, and the best at KW.

Great great ride, but way too short. One spot of amazing airtime though.
