1:48 - the ouuuhh, that's the only thing I remember about riding this coaster (aside from the first drop) - it's a killer jolt!

[@rav1dragon]

Try the 2nd row on the right on the end two Hills you hurt your leg guaranteed I can approve I went on it 5 times in 1 day 4 times were in the same row

[@kinglookeh]

Was an amazing coaster years ago, the last time I went on it I swore never again, it is so rough - well beyond the usual woody roughness.

[@yourexperienceguide]

To be honest I find it to be one of the smoother wooden coasters we have in the UK

[@kinglookeh]

@@yourexperienceguide that's interesting, I was last on it probably 8 odd years ago, could well have had maintenance since or I had well worn wheels or something. Always has a special place for me as one of my first coasters.

[@mlvendetta8330]

I went yesterday, sat at the back. Never again extremely painful

[@clashroyalepro5073]

@@yourexperienceguide it doesn’t have much competition lol

[@Musydid911]

The roughness is only unbearable when you're at the very back, the roughest makes the experience Way more fun if you're in the front or even middle.

[@matthewwilliams7507]

Amazing theme park, been going there since I was a kid and now I’m taking my own kids there. So many memories.

Rode it today for the first time. My kids are now at rollercoaster age so we’ve started going to theme parks with proper rides. I loved it. It felt like a real bone rattling old fashioned roller coaster. We did Wickerman at AT recently and I loved that for the speed exhilaration of the ride but this was just raw. Great fun

[@wolves4224]

Very strange one, I blacked out on this ride when I was 11(20 years ago)! Went down the first drop, blacked out a few seconds later and came back round for the last 1oish seconds. Nice to see what the rest of the ride is like! This sort of thing started happening regularly and turned out I had (or have) a heart condition, all under control with meds these days though!

[@Dylansgolfisbad]

Went on it 3 times yesterday. On the 3rd time half way up the vertical bit at the very start, it broke and we were stuck half way up. We had to wait about 8 mins for engineers to fix it then we finished the ride. I wouldve gone back on but it was closing time

[@twistedcheese1]

Go on stab me but I prefer the grand national on the back or 3rd to back row but it's a lot smoother. Still fantastic. I wish more rides had PTC trains they give me more airtime than melenium flyers

[@downtowncoolsville.8958]

Millenium Flyers are on GCI's which are twisters. They aren't supposed to keep you in with ejector airtime or strong floater. Their designed with laterals in mind.

[@GeorgeDawsonGaming]

Great ride.

Not a chance after spending £4m on a refurb last year

Oh, I didn't Know That.

[@Busman3117]

Yeah There is no chance.

[@timothywait9457]

Busman no it should not nor should Thunda De Zues at Park Asteric or the Boss at Six Flags Laint Lewis lots of good wodden ones do not need to be RMC just because some people find them a bit rough and nor should the Grand National

Something like This would be great at Blackpool

[@Silverstream4life]

@@yourexperienceguide yes Ik but they are too thrilling I would want a carousel or a slow moving outside ride

[@crashcoaster3852]

It does look reasonably decent. Looks far from CCI's best though, honestly. It's absolutely no Boulder Dash but definitely looks better than Blackpool's woodies. I honestly think Stampida looks better than this layout-wise (especially with the re-tracking its had) and duelling factor. Although Stampida's trains are shite.

[@Morgetiud]

The momentum is fantastic, it goes over the hills with speed, and the laterals are comparable to Legend and Silver Comet, its one of the better CCI's in my book (but you have to like lats). That being said its no Shivering Timbers or Boulder Dash but its still great.

[@user-yn1bd4yf3h]

Dragon Mountain Fanboy laterals are my favourite force on rides. I've only done Oakwood and Folly Farm as well as a few travelling fairs. My favourite roller coaster is Megafobia and my favourite flat is Rock N' Roll Waltzer in Folly Farm. That waltzer is very forceful

[@rollingcoasters2311]
