Coaster Bros Thrills

Thunderbird is a launched wing coaster, contributing to the ride's uniqueness. The launch is pretty enjoyable, as the openness of the trains help raise the ride's initial intensity. With that being said, the rest of the ride is not particularly forceful and rather focuses on grace. At the very end of the ride, there is a nice inline twist that provides sustained hangtime. The ride also benefits from being a generally smooth experience. Also, the coaster's track does cross over the guest pathway, making it more picturesque.
