Obviously the 48in ride height and the fact it is still a pretty grown-up coaster mean it’s far from the family ride category, but it’s great for kids who are ready to ride a big Coaster without throwing them on the large and lairey Electric Eel, that will probably scar them for life! There are no large drops or really intimidating elements it’s just a fun fast romp around the park!Īll in all, this makes the coaster a pretty Family-Friendly Ride.

There are no inversions just steep banked turns, airtime hills, and a few head-choppers. The Ride is quite long, around two minutes and over 2,800 ft in length giving really good value for money.

The Ride Starts off indoors with a short Preride Show before firing you out of the underwater cave Shotgun style (very reminiscent of a Dive Site we frequent in Maui, Hawaii). There are strict restrictions on building heights in the San Diego Bay Area and the ride was designed to overcome these while still being exciting and thrilling. The Manta is still a really good coaster, the launches feel a lot faster than the measly 42mph advertised and the track layout is really fun with plenty of steep banks and good airtime.
