coasterbill Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 If you've ridden any other Whip, Hershey's isn't anything to write home about. Fixed that for you. This. Hershey's Whip sucks hard. It's slow as hell and runs a ridiculously short cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoshiFan Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 It's also a little rough from the concrete floor and the grooves in the floor from where the wheel run and the annoying lap bars that you have to wait for a ride operator to release. I still ride the Whip when I am at the park and there is no line but the Mangels versions are so much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 If you've ridden any other Whip, Hershey's isn't anything to write home about. Fixed that for you. I've been on five other Whips (Kennywood, Idlewild, Knoebels, Dorney, Camden), all of the classic Mangels variety, and Hershey's is simply...meh? Camden is far superior to all the others you have ridden. Only Camden and Rye Playland run the Whip as it was intended to run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myself Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 ^True dat, but they're all better than the one Hershey has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boldikus Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 ^ I like how you assume I'm gonna do Wildcat just cause I thought it wasn't that bad. I'll skip it if I can, I still haven't ridden Comet, Trailblazer, Sidewinder (which, unless it's dead, I'll probably skip), the mouse, and Laff Trakk. Also only did the one side of Lightning Racer and definitely want to do that one again, not to mention ride the crap out of the Intamins and Great Bear.

defrocker Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I'll skip it if I can I love how you say this as if there is some unseen force within you possibly forcing you to ride it. I still haven't ridden... the mouse Best... Mouse... Ever...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't hate the ride, but I also feel it would be a waste of time to ride it again. Its not terrible imo though. I've heard good things about the mouse and hope to give it a whirl.

coasterbill Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I can think of 2 members of the group that would happily help you whore the mouse. I'm with you though, it's not a must-ride. PS: Isn't your next coaster #100? In that case it should be a giant pile of bull*** like Trailblazer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 ^ Yes. I don't really care what it is as there isnt any real gems to choose from out of what I have yet to ride @ Hershey. Its ironic cause SDL was #50 my last visit this same time two years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasBaby Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) ^ I like how you assume I'm gonna do Wildcat just cause I thought it wasn't that bad.

Also only did the one side of Lightning Racer and definitely want to do that one again, not to mention ride the crap out of the Intamins and Great Bear. Sidewinder has the new vest restraints, so there's no head-banging at all. It's probably the best boomerang coaster I've ridden. (And yes, I've ridden a lot of them as my kids love boomerangs.) The mouse is also one of the better mouse coasters and it's usually a walk-on. Edited October 21, 2016 by VegasBaby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaellynn4 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 The mouse is fun for no other reason than they never have any of the brakes turned on. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defrocker Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I'm with you though, it's not a must-ride. We don't need this kind of negativity around here! Wild mouses (mice?) are my log flume! They are my Skyride! They are a must ride! I'll have non of this heresy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterbill Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 He speaks the truth. I've been converted. Lol that first airtime hill is ridiculous. More importantly though holy crap late October night rides on Coal Cracker!!! Best addition to Hersheypark in the Dark ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Yeah I'm pretty much hooked on front row of Skyrush. HOLYCRAP. I still love the back left/death seat but after 7 laps today, 3 in the front - it's a totally different ride up there. I think I like it more. My thighs are totally crushed. That 2ND airtime hill.
