The number one complaint is they're too short.

Us Coaster folks a never happy w/the length of the ride... EE has that awesome backward motion that can't be found anywhere else. At one point you feel you are going on inverted loops. But hey, there's a puppet that's supposed to take a swing @ you (& throw some Pixie Dixie dust)... SELL THE PARK - EVERYTHING SUCKS!!!!

Sorry mate - once was passable and I was never going to say anything but I have seen you type this about fifteen times in the last few months. It's "lose" capacity. "Loose" is a completely separate word.

Originally Posted By CDF1 Well, imagine how short EE would be if they didn't have that ground-level loop through the tree forest before the climb up the through the shrine to the mountain? That adds some 30-40 seconds to the ride with nary a thrill or, as one poster has pointed out, authentic tea trees.

I stood in that exact same spot taking pics but I must of gotten a bit turned around.
