If you happen to be a hard core aggressive coaster loving fiend like most of us who attended Coaster Con 42 then Goliath is just what the doctor ordered.

Goliath's layout is pretty simple. You have a two hundred and thirty-three foot lift hill followed by a two hundred and fifty-five drop into a tunnel where you reach speeds enough to get you pulled over by the California Highway Patrol if you were on a freeway.

Don't worry as Eric Estrada is not going to get you here. After the first drop Goliath takes you through a high turnaround before sending you back down at criminal speeds. This little hill follows and you take it at speed which gives some airtime.

From there Goliath is a whirlpool of helices and extremely positive g forces...especially laterals.

This is not something I say often but with all the power that Goliath has I am thankful for the mid course trim brake a little bit otherwise the final helices would be painful in not dangerous. You've got to love a coaster with this much power. At least I do.
