Boomerang Hyper Coaster Review

Now this ride is at a park called Trans Studio Cibubur, a small park in Indonesia that I don't see myself visiting anytime soon since.....the park looks like nothing special, and Indonesia itself is extremely low on my travel priorities. However, I rode this ride at its original home at Knotts Berry Farm. After climbing in the seat and pulling down the shoulder harness, you dispatch. Up the lift you go backwards. You got a pretty view of Xcelerator while going up the lift hill when it at Knotts Berry Farm. This appears to be on a roof in Indonesia, so I'm sure you get some sort of view on it now. On this Boomerang, once you get to the top, you just seem to stop for 5 seconds (at least you did at Knotts. Maybe they fixed this at its new home in Indonesia). Once you're done hanging there, you drop. The drop is really fun and you get some nice speed. However, once you pull up into the sky as you enter the cobra roll, That's where the pain begins. After you slam into the restraint coming out of the 1st half of the Cobra Roll, you get slammed going into the 2nd half of the cobra roll. Then you go into a loop. The loop is not fun as there is alot of headbanging and shakiness. Then you climb up the second spike, as we climb up the second spike, you get a chance to recover, but then, you drop. Backwards you go. The loop isn't quite as bad backwards. And then you go backwards into the cobra roll. It really confuses you as it slams you backwards. And finally, after all the slamming is over, You glide into the station. Well, this Boomerang is now gone from Knotts Berry Farm. But it found a new home in Indonesia. I hope Trans Studio Cibubur gives this ride new trains and some TLC.
