The Riddler's Revenge is definetely the best stand-up coaster I've ever been on. One thing that makes this such a good ride (besides the great layout) is that it doesn’t put too much stress on riders' legs. I find that when I ride other stand-up coasters, my legs hurt afterwards, but this isn’t the case with Riddler's Revenge.

Overall this ride gets 4 stars from me!

I personally feel that this had minimal g-forces. It wasn't that intense at all. The Georgia Scorcher is way better, in my opinion.

I could not agree with you more SFoG Freak. But I do think The Riddler's Revenge is better looking.

This is one of my favorites at my home park. It is long, and I love the loops in at different angles. Plus it is a stand-up. Different experience.

BTW, this has gotten much rougher over the years. It used be the smoothest coaster in the park.

Ths is the most painful ride at the park! They locked the restraints a couple of inches away from between my legs. I weigh 325 pounds and I could barely fit on this ride.

What are you talking about? It's not painful, YOU, the rider, adjusts the seat to your comfortability. It's a great coaster. The use of the Flash Pass queue is reccomended though.

I really enjoyed The Riddlers Revenge a lot. I never been an overly big fan of stand up coasters, but this one is pretty good. It is glassy smooth and never lets up. Im in a toss up of which stand up is my favorite between Riddler, Chang, and Mantis. Whenever you're at Magic Mountain, I say ride it. Dont listen to what rumors say about this ride, because it is pretty good in my opinion. Recommend for everyone.

A very good stand-up coaster. I'm not used to a stand-up coaster that's not trying to break my legs with positive G's. The loops are smooth (the oblique loop impressed me the most) and fast, and the ride lasts so long. I think it's fantastic and one of B&M's crowning achievements.
