![]() ![]() While Candymonium may not be the most intense roller coaster in the world, it provides some of the best airtime on a hypercoaster, it’s one of the best-paced, it’s butter smooth, it’s re-rideable, and the layout is very unique. And the layout is so unique, that it reminds me of something like Fury 325 at Carowinds. This thing hauls at night too, which adds to the experience. Despite the two trim brakes, this is truly one of the best-paced B&M hyper coasters. Candymonium, however, doesn't really slow down until the end. And that’s why they can have some pacing issues. Reece's train does run the fastest out of the three.Īlmost all of the B&M hypers have a mid-course brake run in the middle of the ride. I got sustained for 5 seconds as I legit went flying! I also like the drop in the back row because it gives some great ejector!Ĭandymonium features three different colored trains themed to candy Reese’s, Kisses, and Twizzlers. My favorite part of the ride is the first camelback, because of how strong & sustained the floater airtime is. It provides every type of airtime that you would find on a coaster floater, flojector, and ejector. While it may not be the most intense roller coaster in the world, Candymonium provides some of the best airtime on a B&M hyper. So this should most definitely be the first thing you do to start off your day since its at the entrance and because of how insane it is. Overall this ride is insane and I was able to marathon it when I went last time due to the quick dispatches and high capacity trains. ![]() Another great thing about this coaster is that it keeps its speed throughout the whole ride due to no break run yes there's a little trim on the speed hill before the helix but it doesn't really slow you. But even with all this Nitros helix is still better but that is the only better thing about Nitro so yes Candymonium is a better coaster. Then the almost inverting turn around is pretty forceful but then the following helix gives you crazy G's and the exit is fun but it actually didn't really give me any air. But the most insane part of the ride is that first airtime hill following the drop I remember counting about 4 to 5 seconds of airtime which doesn't compare to many other hypers besides mako. Candymoniums first drop is insane as it provides greater and greater floater time the further you go back in the train. This is one of my top B&M Hypers out there today this thing is just the definition of a fun coaster with great pace and airtimes. It is still an excellent ride, but the brakes do annoy me. I'm sure more intense and it could have finally been a B&M hyper that delivers some serious, serious thrill. ![]() They are both on uphills and neither totally kills the air over the top, but I have to wonder what could the air have been like. Now the real bad news: Why does this essentially brand new coaster already have 2 sets of massive brakes on it? Did they mess up the math? It is tearing itself up already? Both are very, very noticeable. ![]() It is a great ride even though the last 1/4 of the ride is very, very tame. Candymonium is the first one that I can say delivers a fair bit of thrill. Yes, they are fun and deliver some nice floater air, but not much in the way of "thrill". I've always felt that B&M hypers are too good to be extremely thrilling. Whereas the Boxter isn't really all that fast, but it is so small and nimble that it can deliver forces far beyond what the Towncar can. The Towncar has more power and ultimately can go faster, but it just so smooth you don't feel like you are going that fast and is kind of tame. I've always compared B&M to Intamin like comparing a Lincoln Towncar with a Porsche Boxster. Far, far superior to Diamondback at Kings Island. I rode it in the back to experience as much forces as it has to give and it was a very, very good ride. The floater air on the second hill lasted all the way to the bottom and you instantly transition to strong positive G's. This actually delivered some solid forces that I really enjoyed. The seatbelts were a bit of a surprise, but in no way distracting at all. Candymonium is of course liquid smooth and perfectly comfortable with B&M's wonderful clamshell restraints. That actually may be first time I have ever used the word "intensity" to describe a B&M hyper as they are mostly so perfect and so smooth that they actually lack intensity. I really remember loving the free and open feeling with all of the lovely floater air on Goliath (SFGA), but I feel this is had a bit more intensity. ![]()
