Prowler Review

     The Prowler is a 80 foot tall wooden GCI roller coaster. In 2009 it was rated the best new ride of the year beating out rides like Diamondback and Saw. This year it was ranked the number ten wooden roller coaster in the world.
      You climb into the two across comfortable and cushy millennium flyer trains. Pull down the lap bar and wait for the all clear not sure of what to expect because most of the ride is hidden in the woods. As you climb the the hill you get a glimpse of whats to come and the beautiful woods and park. As you crest the hill you see the track twist below you. The track roars as you hurtle down the first drop. But before you hit the ground you pull up into  the twisted hill you fly through the structure and are off into the woods in a layout meant to reflect the Beast. In a series of twists, turns and bunny hills you fly near the ground as the trains try and buck you off. Finally you do a last twist by the lift hill and hit the brakes.
     Overall it is an amazing roller coaster and deserves its rank. My final rating is a solid 9.5. And would definitely recommend a stop at Worlds of Fun.
