I'll interpret your question differently: Having ridden both, if I was told that I had to choose right now which one I want to ride at this exact moment, I would without hesitating choose wicked cyclone. Bizarro is a VERY different ride from WC, and they compliment each other extremely well. Bizarro is almost what Nitro is to El toro in the sense that it a much less violent/intense, and is a speed/height/extended airtime oriented ride.

I was there for media day and rode twice in the back row. I actually wasn't expecting much but.. the ride was absolutely insane. The intensity and pacing seems to increase all the way to the brake run, and this is before it has even been opened to the public, on a relatively cold day, without having much time to break in. STILL, each of the airtime hills, notably the outward banked ones, have El toro Cross over hill airtime intensity. The rolls all have a really satisfying whip leading in, slow motion hang-time in the middle where they seem to stall, and then accelerate out with a forceful twist. I think that these extended hang-time maneuvers are a great way to for them to get a a nice long lasting airtime sensation amidst the constraints a compact layout. People worried about the end dragging on, I had the exact same worry. It was completely blown away by the whole ride from start to finish. I was talking to someone who said that it is just a hair behind Medusa Steel coaster, which to me just proves how good it really is..

I actually really really like the strap restraints they have on I305 because of how well they allow you to really feel the nuances of the track and the rotations. I don't find it painful with the other restraints, but I like that I don't feel the transitions on only my thighs with the new ones. The airtime and forces are strong enough on Maverick as well as I305 that the the vest doesn't affect your ability to feel them, it just allows the forces to be more dispersed which is nice because the round bars for your legs are not overly ergonomic. -

I think we might be incorrect in assuming that they have different heart lines to begin with. Anyways, standup coasters don't have a fixed seat height and can be set at a very low position.. -
Best Pirate Ship Ride?
CPmillenia94 replied to canadianparkfan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Any of the classic intamin looping ships such as Berserker at KD. For some reason they are intimidating. The sheer size of the ride might have a part of that. Really bizarre and unique ride experience.. -

I got to ride It today as well. Thought it was REALLY fun. I teeny bet vibraty but overall rides very smoothly. I'm not sure how I would rank it but it was definitely what the park needed. Best part of the ride is definitely the barrel roll at the end. The cobra roll is really bizarre because it maneuvers the top so slowly, but there is a nice diving feel on the exit. Of course the airtime on the drop is also really nice. Kind of caught me off guard on the flat section between that and the loop, it definitely makes the forces into and out of the elements more appreciable. -

On the contrary, hurler is easily the best wooden coaster in the park for me. I can't be the only one that gets ejector on the hills. -

Woooowww the topspin looks AMAZING at this park. Why don't more parks build floorless topspins..
