As Phoenix Rising is a family coaster there are no inversions.
Having a height requirement of just forty-two inches Phoenix Rising
foregoes the thrill and focuses on giving a ride that is simply a whole
lot of fun.
There are lots of directional changes, dips, and turns that just
perform.
Phoenix Rising is not the biggest, most terrifying ride on the planet but it is
certainly up my list of coasters that are just insanely fun.
My verdict...Phoenix Rising is a winner. Now, we need more chains
to follow Busch Gardens lead (for 2025 there will be another one at
Busch Gardens Williamsburg) and add more of these fun rides to their
parks. One of these built over some hilly and wooded terrain would
work for me.
