We rode it with the loop..it wasn’t the smoothest ride..
I finally made it to the park the year after they removed the loop, unfortunately. I’d like to have been able to say I rode it with the loop.
But it was one of my favorite coasters, and they tore it down. I always sat in the front, where most wooden coasters are the smoothest.
We got stuck once halfway up the lift, but they got it working so we didn’t get to get off and walk down the hill.
