The Riddler Mindbender

One of the few true "terrain" coasters at a Six Flags park, Mindbender is an absolute classic. It's got 2 forceful vertical loops, some intense positive G's in the ravine, and a nice tunnel. The area can be prone to flooding, however, so this coaster has at times been underwater. The original trains have been replaced and it's gotten a DC themed makeover to The Riddler, but it's still a great ride for older kids. A Schwarzkopf gem!

This coaster is a fun one. The two vertical loops are very forceful, and the downward dive is also a great element of the ride. The only reason this is not getting 5 stars is because of the recent refurbishment that happened. While it's great that this old ride is still getting attention from the park, the older trains were swapped out for shorter, lighter ones which makes some parts of the ride slower than before. The trim brakes are also hitting hard, harder than they ever did before the refurbishment. Overall though still a great ride, and I would recommend this to anyone visiting.

The Riddler Mindbender is a solid and enjoyable roller coaster. The drops and two loops are quite fun. It's also nothing too intense, so it's good for more intermediate coaster riders. There are some cons though. Given that this is an extremely old ride, there are some parts that are very rough. Especially the brake run. The theming is also pretty lackluster. They basically just put some question marks up on the station. But the scenery is cool. The trees have grown in nicely around it and it's right next to Batman: The Ride. Overall, this is a fun, albeit slightly basic roller coaster. Intensity Rating: 6.5/10 Overall Rating: 7/10

Six Flags neutered this coaster when they "refurbished" it, they took what was a intense thrill machine into a borderline family coaster. The trims take all your speed away before the final vertical loop and the shorter trains don't seem to fit the track as well or pull as much forces at the ends of the trains. *Upped to 4 stars since they dialed back the excessive trimming.

Very, very smooth ride. The tunnel is pretty cool and the loops are barely noticeable because they're so smooth. If I had any criticism of this ride, it would be that it's just a little boring. But I really don't care because it's a great ride.

Unfortunately, Six Flags ruined this once great roller coaster with renovating this ride, giving it new AND shorter (5-car vs originally 7-car) trains that makes the ride feel immensely slower and causes the coaster to no longer have airtime. This is my home park and this is a bummer that this is the case, and I end up skipping the ride now because it’s not worth the wait with the other great rides here. This ride was great with the old trains and could potentially be great again in the future if it were able to run faster somehow. I will always have a soft spot for this ride though.

This coaster recently opened again after maintenance. It was my first time riding it and honestly I wasn't too impressed. I certainly didn't dislike it, but it wasn't very memorable. Maybe I need to ride it a few more times.

First time I rode it I got really bad whiplash, but the last 5 or so times it has been quite fun! Good starter coasters for people who want to ride looping coasters! AWESOME COASTER! Just hope they don't tear it down on Thursday😭😭😭😭😭😭😰😰😰😰😢😢😢😢
