B&M at their best. This coaster is aging like fine wine. This Inverted coaster is on par with its much newer sister Banshee. Afterburn looks over the newer Aeronautica Landing section of the park and the B&M train sound provides an excellent reminder of this coaster to the larger flight theme. This coaster is peppy and fun.

Such a great ride! I’ve sat in almost every row and while it’s a great view in the front, it’s much more smoother in the back. I love this coaster.

The pacing of this B&M invert is incredible! It’s not the most intense invert they have made but wow it just flows so perfectly through the layout. When you get that front row you really do feel like you are in a fighter jet. The views of the track are great and it’s really cool when you go over the start of the lift hill half way through the ride. I love that this ride doesn’t have a mid-course break run. You fly straight into the breaks and immediately want another ride.

I am petrified of roller coasters, I'm able to ride small ones and some without a drop, but something about Afterburn makes it easy and fun with no hesitation. The G-Forces you feel and strapped in head support is fantastic, I will come back for this.

The best B&M Invert I’ve been on. This ride is relentless and a lot of fun. Great coaster.
