Out of interest, why is it that many on this site think Hyperion is so average? I’ve heard nothing but rave reviews elsewhere on the internet, with the common consensus being that it “defecates on every B&M hyper coaster”…
I'm sure I've answered this question from you quite a few times now Matt. Danny has too.
I just found it incredibly dull to be honest. The first drop is ok, then the coaster kind of meanders around doing not a whole lot. There isn't much airtime to speak of, the forces are ok but with Lech just down the road it hardly competes there, and the inversion is just a bit pointless. It's not an interesting coaster because it doesn't do any one thing particularly well. The goggles on the front row are pointless, dum, and distract from the ride experience.
Maybe it has off days and on days, I've only been once (back in October hopefully), but that in itself would be a huge negative mark against it. As I mentioned above Shambhala and Silver Star are pretty consistent (and Big One is also consistent...ly rubbish).
