Easily beats out other wooden coasters in CA, first half is solid, but after the mid course shit gets real. GhostRider is a CCI coaster that was refurbished by GCI a couple of years ago sine it used to be so rough. But ever since this thing hauls through its original layout, while being way smoother. There is a reason why this gets the longest line of the park, so do it first thing in the morning. After you exit the lifthill, you start out with a 5/10 drop but doesn’t ruin the ride, but then a few seconds later you get hit with some floater airtime. Very nice while going into a turnaround getting a decent view of Knott’s, after you enter into another airtime hill very solid once more, then you enter the mid course. Now after this is what makes this ride good, since the brakes don’t activate, you go into the drop with speed, followed by a crazy ejector airtime hill. I swear it feels like flying out of your seat followed by more ejector hills and turns until you hit the finale. With a helix, laterals hit you like a train here, but it’s a very fun moment, then the ride ends. I know a lot to take in but trust me by the time you get off, you’ll feel exited for the rest of your visit.
