[SailorStar156]

OMG, YOU RIDE A HORSE. I WANA GO !

[johnlovesbridge]

Looks lame and embarassing to ride.

[BrittanyMorganVargas]

I heard it squishes your boobso_o

[moonlight12395]

i remember i was just about to get on this ride and i had to wait for a long time and i was in the very front of the line and then all of a sudden this earthquake came and i had to wait like another hour to get on the ride

[youngslayer23]

Cool I like ponies

[Cruiseshipfan]

This rise isn't that good when you have been on other rides like it. Its got a really basic layout and is not really as fast as others. For anyone wanting to know what coaster I am talking about look up "Jet rescue Seaworld" and "Mick Doohans Motocoaster Dreamworld" They are both the same type of coaster just made by a different company. There faster longer and more fun plus less painful. As this one hurt my manhood on the brakes at the end.

[gigixxoo]

Omg I went on the ride....AWESOME..... Everyone started saying yeeeeee hawwww in the tunnel I said yew haww doggy xD it's hecka fun you people should ride it :D

[sqicy8]

me and my cousin got scared so we just started singing random songs

[16Lorii]

were they just building the tunnel when you filmed this?

[EvolutionRider88]

[MyLife527]

This ride is hecka fast its only 17.3 seconds long when i was there i timed it. Its fun but makes ur butt stick out and kinda hurts ur stomach. but over verry fast and fun

[renesmee286]

The seats hurt really bad!!!! My stomach hurt so much after... But it was fun! I rode it twice.

[Russellmartins1fan]

Damn the accident

[ColonelHate]

when did this ride open never seen or heard about it before it crashed... I wish I would have been on it then I could sue and get a bunch of money. *sigh*

[RandyEconomy]

Dude....10 PEOPLE just got HURT on this RIDE on OCTOBER 7, 2010 at Halloween Haunt. Two trains rolled into each other.....

[Icstitch]

Like omg that is the best music for the ride! I would give you an A++++++++++++++! WTG!

[truearizonagirl]

That looks like the "warm-up" coaster for all the bigger and exreame rides

[koasterkid1234]

2:04. It looks weird without the full tunnel. Lol

[Sum1MakinVids]

Didn't this ride used to have a tunnel on the final turn?

[koasterkid1234]

@Sum1MakinVids it does. In this video, the tunnel wasn't complete. i've been on it 4 times. The tunnel is really suprisingly dark

[Disneyparksrock]

Go Zamperla

[roshpiansay]

[vanitieswhorex]

[JOshhOt4u]

[SuperMonarca1]

i was part of the small amount of pepole that got stuck on that ride

[rachelrulz]

i couldnt breathe becuz of the stupid thing in the back <.<

[mkeacorn]

[AndresRomeroBlog]

This one should be called

Xcelerator Jr.

LOL

[LEXiikiidO18]

[Arocha150]

song????????//???

[xerofirex]

lol that looks uncomfortable

[AdrenalineAddict610]

It is when you first get on. Once you go a few times, you get used to it.

[oSkiPPeRi]

@xerofirex trust me it is not!!!!!!! and at the end it stops in i milisecond you know how that feels lol

[bumsdrums]

for a short ride this ride pretty fun

[newsgirl132]

I don't see what everyone is complaining about. This ride was so much fun I went on it twice!

[Tr0picalParadise]

i got squished and i could barely breathe

[zerodatguy]

omg this ride was so painful. it hurt my chest and back. me and my friend said we would never get on it again. it sucked so much.

[AdrenalineAddict610]

This is one of those rides you have to "learn" to ride. Overall, I still liked it.

[JOECAROLNICKAILEEN]

omg this ride was the best i went on it on january 3,2008 and it was soooooooo awsome!

[iridiankool]

those seats choke you! damn to tight

[ginakakish]

I was going to go on this ride but it kept breaking down like 4 different times and we waited for like an hour to ride it..So we just left aww i wanted to ride the pony express :((

[Kat48]

ive been on it and it freakin hurt and it was awesime

[misskibbs]

The take off on this ride was sort of freaky...i couldnt breathe for a few seconds..o.o

[tsunami762]

its just the fastener. believe me.

[laLaLandBeTrippin]

those are crazy seats for a coaster.

[ERAProductionsinc]

I wanna go on dis so BADLY!!!!!!!! but it was closed last month when i went:(

[misstrublu90]

aw that sucks. and the ride is really fun it's just over way too fast.

[dudethatreads4fun]

it's not that great. It's only like 30 seconds long but yes it is a fun ride to relax on if you've been riding a ton of intense rides all day long lol. And it is really unique.

[ERAProductionsinc]

yeah cuz i had gone on GhostRider 3x in a row, silver bullet 2x, Xcelerator 1nce, and boomerang. i needed 2 relax a bit, so i went on big foot rapids instead. perilous plunge was the only other ride dat was closed

[lgtilwatp]

my brother is scared of that ride!

[showcampfan]

looks fun. im going on saturday.

[GameShowGuy]

Looks fun.

[bambuchapvc]

i went on this ride 3 times,

its so fun!

:]

[Favian35]

the seats are wicked dude you are siting on a horse.six flags magic mountain should change gold rushers seats to that and change the name but I doubt they will because one they are going bankrupt and two that was the first ride of the six flags chain

[canadia7x]

heck no! those cars are priceless. Plus, you can't look back! It's wicked scary looking backwards the whole time on goldrusher

[canadia7x]

AND they're not going out of business. Haven't you heard of their '10 coaster?

[poeggy199]

it would be awesome if they did that on goldrusher, but you're right about how it was the first ride, but sfmm should still make a ride like that

[MiickeyyMouseRules2]

they should do that(=

talking about pony express -

the harness hurts when the break system comes in. XP

[lomac011]

Those restraint hurt!

[invadertendra]

I went there on March 5 with my 8th grade honors class for physics day '09 with my two friends/ group members. I thought it was slow, until I found myself screaming. Went twice. It was awesome!

[MiickeyyMouseRules2]

the last time i went to knotts the wood tunnel thing was already built and when you got in there the screams go so high it could break your frickin ears[:

[jasonjoe99]

follow this: dont lay down flat on the saddle thing because the thing in back of u will push u in that position and u will get stuck like that

[bluepenguin308]

THAT RIDE WAS SOOO FAST.

it looked slow at first.

my friend was like A PONY CANT RUN THAT FAST!!!!

lol. :]

then we went on bigfoot rapids 4 times.

[danimal4you]

im going tomorrow

trying to get there early

what rides would anyone recommend to try and get on before the hours start getting packed onto the line waits?

[Ryan120420]

GhostRider

Pony Express

Xcelerator

Boomerang

Montezoomas

Silver Bullet

Sierra SideWinder

Ride in that order and you wont have to wait long.

[danimal4you]

@Ryan120420 man what the fist? a year ago thatd be good info (x i got a pass now and i hit it everyday

[omfgplea]

@danimal4you Ghost Rider first because it's one of the best there and it's close proximity to the entrance of the park, plus it usually has the longest waits.

Then you hit Silver Bullet.

After that you should probably go to Xcelerator.

Supreme Scream.

Boomerang.

Perilous Plunge. The rest probably won't have a long wait.

[wendyjo98]

It IS a fun ride, but I wouldn't wait longer than 15 min to go on it. We were lucky,we were there for a Halloween Haunt night and towards the end of the evening, there was about a 10 minute wait, so we hopped on. We knew nothing about it....and even joked around how we didn't want to "hold on" to the handles cuz it seemed so kiddish. Well it took off pretty fast and we immediately grabbed the handles to hold on. We were laughing at ourselves at that point. So yes, it is fun, and too short.

[kkkisfunny]

im going to knotts this friday on december 5, 2008

[LegoThemeparkCrazy]

This ride doesnt look that great.

[darklightningitachi]

This is such a short ride with a REALLY LONG LINE..

[contennis13]

my friend got on this ride and he could not breathe and and he was suffocting and crying the whole time. Not kidding!!! those back harnesses are brutal!!

[sunshine6006]

the safety harness is like the ramba zamba at adventure island!

[McRrOcKeR655]

my friend broke her ribs on this ride!

[LegoThemeparkCrazy]

Your making a joke right.

[54spiritedwill54]

how long is the line usually for this?

[arjay031]

I HATE KNOTTS BERRY FARM

[605222]

its the number 1 theme park in america, its a prooven fact wether u like it or not

[arjay031]

sure .. ride a figure 8 coaster and waste ur money... its america's 1st theme park.. they are a lot more parks that are way better than knotts that doesnt have rude employees.... like disneyland and universal

[605222]

the employeels r probably rude cause ur breaking the rules or something, knotts berry farm is one of the most well known theme parks in the usa

[goldenboyrb]

not exactly... i work here, yeah some employees are rude, but please understand that we got paid minimum wage and can get sent home WAY early and got paid the hours we work. 2 hours? 2.5 hours? I thought the CA rule said 4 hours since we commute. ah well, i will be quitting next month.

[sicrider10]

god me too i cant fucking stand it magic mountain is way better

[sasmas1545]

thts a small coaster

[slipknotmaggott666]

this one is a fly wheel launch

just pointing it out lol

[Atem122]

how pissed did the employees get at you in the bigfoot rapids line?

[Ryan120420]

He yelled at me for filming (he was pretty mad). If he had told me politely to not film in the queue line it would not have been a problem.

And it was not like I was in the way, I was off to the side and the line was a walk on.

I guess the guy was having a bad day, but thats no excuse to take it out on the guests.

[Atem122]

that's just plain old messed up, especially with no one around

[sailorfan11]

you cant feel your back or breathe at the during this ride,but its really fun

[pianofilm]

it looks uncomfortable

[xbox360luver02]

the worst ride at knotts the seat is painful and feels like ur gunna fly out

[SkaterSharlene]

Doesn't look that bad when you watch it on youtube...Might go today.

[Sccrdg999]

This has to be one of Knott's worst rides. The only thing that looks appealing to this is the way you sit. Which doesn't make that much of a differnce IMO. DUMB.

[ShadowSystemsCorp]

Looks Fun

[goldendoveboo]

why does this look lame to me?

[Sixflags1234567]

Because it is lame!!! This looks like a kiddy ride!!! Take my advice, don't waste your time riding this. Go for X - celerator instead.

[u2ugly2nv]

Wow it goes all the way by big foot rapids.

[Sccrdg999]

That's where it starts at...

[u2ugly2nv]

Well I haven't been to knotts for a while..so I wouldn't know where the ride starts at.

[MrSocial78]

I going there tomorrow!!!!!!!

7-16-08

[naturalnatureboy2007]

I rode this thing 3 times! Its mild but so much fun! Just the way you are "riding" the horses and all! Silver Bullet is alot worse than this one! I love all the Roller Coasters at KBF!!!

[Sheilamony]

I'm going to Knott's in July 20th. I'm so excited.

[emokid8900]

um what ride did they take off to put this one?

[Ryan120420]

The Scrambler.

[emokid8900]

oohhhhhhh NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! THOSE BASTARDS THEY SUCK ASS I LOVED THAT RIDE!

[dartarro21]

This ride was the lamest there imo...the launch was strange b/c you didn't figure it out until you were sitting there for a while. Wouldn't ride it again probably

[rct3lover1823]

ohhhh okat thanx

[rct3lover1823]

where is it located in the park???

[Ryan120420]

Ghost Town.

[samuh4864]

i looks fun

[rct247]

Cool family ride!

BTW, where is that music from? Who is it by/what's it called?

[Ryan120420]

"The Pony Soldiers" by Various Artists - Cherry Lane Publishing

Album:

Selections From Autumn Thunder: 40 Years Of NFL Films Music

Its on iTunes.

[rct247]

thanks

[killerxkiss]

Is the launch fast? And is the lines usually long?

[Ryan120420]

0-38mph in 3 seconds.

Yes, the lines will be long because it is new.

[poeggy199]

I was at knott's yesterday and I went on it twice. The line was only 10 minutes long each time, but I'm sure it's long on weekends.

[mochixmochix]

It is.. and its not really worth it lol

[killerxkiss]

okay, thanks. :)when i went on it i waited 15 minutes, and the ride broke down for about five minutes.

[annemarie1948]

that doesnt always happen.

`

[randomxlaugher]

i went to knotts on tuesday. and there was only like. a 5 minute wait. but you should go earlier if you really wanna ride it.

[ILoveGracieLouWho]

Cool Coaster! :):):):):D

[ILoveGracieLouWho]

Cool Coaster!

[soccerchamp76]

how tall do you have to be to ride this ???????

[Ryan120420]

48 inches.

[luthergnomes]

My boyfriend and I went on this, it feels a lot different than any other rollar coaster, because there's like no sides... it was a lot of fun.

[disneylvnbear12]

This really looks cool ! I am looking forward to checking this out

[davidanthonyrojas]

the line looks sick long how long dose it normally take cuz im going saturday ^_^

[Ryan120420]

Probably an hour, hour and a half. And most rides will be the same. Get to the park before opening and go strait to Pony Express. Then go to Xcelerator, Boomerang, Montezoomas, Sierra Sidewinder, Silver Bullet, and finish up on GhostRider.

Saturdays are VERY busy at Knotts, if you can, go on a Sunday, to avoid crowds.

And if its hot out, Perilous Plunge will have a 2 hour wait. So hit that at opening if you want to ride. Good luck and have fun!

[davidanthonyrojas]

thanx ^_^

[poeggy199]

how long is the line usually for this?

[Buffalotrains93]

they got one of these up where i live first one ever

[suiteplayer]

in wat part of da park iz da ride at??

[Ryan120420]

Ghost Town.

[flynhawyn77]

WTF it opened without the tunnel being finished!!!!!?

[dietcokevan]

When is Knott's going to make my B&M Hypercoaster?

We need a B&M Hypercoaster on the west coast!

[dietcokevan]

What did the workers say?

[eddieg512]

does anyone know when they are gonna finish the tunnel near the end of the ride? i wanna go to KBF when it's finished.

[zerodatguy]

looks kinda slow but fun.

[Parcheezeman]

Cool! Was it fun? And how come the employes yell at you if u film it from the queue line?

[Ryan120420]

The ride is a new, shorter version of Jaguar with a launch. I would not wait more than 10 minutes for the ride.

I was standing in the Big foot rapids queue line, on a cold windy day for no more than 5mins filming the final turn around before they enclosed it. Apparently I was breaking a park rule about standing in a Queue line and filming (according to the rude employee).

Oh well, I got all the Pony Express footage I could ever want. Really no need to film the ride in the future.

[coasterfan86]

I was just At knotts yesterday And When I was in line for bigfoot rapids Some Lady Lost Her Purse And Their Was A Long Line and The Ride Operator Was just on the phone talking and their was people on the ride Waiting to get off. While the Ride Operator was just on the phone trying to find that ladys Purse. it took them about 10 minutes. THe Ride Operator Did not tell THe people waiting on the ride to exit. so they got off by them selves.

[iluvRBDychristopher]
