EE how bad is the coster

[The Foolish Mortal]

I will chime in and agree with most of what has already been said. Never felt like I was going upside down. Going backward through the dark was a little disorienting for my stomach, but I still enjoyed the ride

I didn't find EE scary and didn't get much of a loose your stomach feel. However, I am prone to motion sickness and the whole backwards part just about did me in. I got off, stumbled to the nearest place to get a Sprite and had to rest for a bit to settle my stomach. Now my kids have been going on it since they were 5 and love it.

In no way do I feel like I'm going upside down while going backwards. Just the typical Vekoma neck-pain inducing rattling (I really wish Disney would partner with B&M on a coaster at some point).

I found the backwards part to be a lot more intense than I expected. Agree that it is disorienting. But it did not make me feel like I was upside down.

I agree with every poster here and wanted to chime in because you sound as terrified as I was. It took me YEARS to work up to it - I waited HOURS in line when it first opened, and walked out!! - but it was really fun. I do agree the backwards part did not feel upside down, which I've done before, but more like disorienting and a tiny bit of those stomach drop feelings. I never felt unsafe or upside down, just...confused haha! Actually, I disliked the backwards part the worst, the big drop you can see I didn't even feel! Please don't let that scared you off, it's over very quick! Beware there are some bunny hills after the big drop but they too are over fast. I would say give it a shot if you can, I am happy I did! If you end up not riding, don't beat yourself up. We all have stuff that makes us scared and it's ok to not do it.

A tip I learned: if you hate the stomach drop feeling (and can prepare for the drop somehow), clench your stomach muscles and push your feet flat into the ride vehicle floor. I do it a LOT and I can say I truly feel a difference! If you do ride and hate it, at least you know and you don't ever have to do it again!

Thank you everyone I am trying to be brave for dh because he does so much for me but the ride description sounds terrifying

It's not terrifying at all, it's a lot of fun!
The only thing I would warn about is motion sickness. Unlike previous posters, my mom and I are both also prone to motion sickness and both of us felt THE WORST on this ride than any other ride. I've never felt so terrible on a ride in my life and both of us were really in bad shape when we got off. So if you're not prone to motion sickness- I wouldn't hesitate riding it for a second, because it's a great ride. If you are - I don't know...it was really terrible for us, I personally wouldn't chance it.

A tip with the backwards part: it's worse if you ride in the back. For the least "intense" experience, ride closer to the front, but still in the middle. I've noticed a huge difference in intensity just from changing seats in the car.

Thanks for the tips everyone
