Well like I said everybody can have their own opinion and just because a few people say its a good ride doesn't mean its a good ride. I believe janfrederick was right, you do have to ride the coaster before bashing it.

But Jephry, it is a good ride!

I'm not trying to start something, but this is kind of like with MF, some people say they hate it, and others say "how could you hate MF?" it's a matter of opinion, I believe MF is a good ride, but i also believe that a lot of rides are good rides.

Ozzfest 2001: The greatest show on earth!
Iron Wolf might not be the greatest stand up, but it was a good start for all of them, still fast and twisted.
I love Iron Wolf, it was my first stand-up, and despite the pain I sometimes experience down below due to the bicycle seats, I still ride it every time I'm there. I have too been on the larger B&M stand ups, but they seem so much moretame, and calculated than IW. IW feels like its a little out of control, and the intensity is second to none. But, then again, there's no coaster I haven't liked. So, I guess my opinion is a bit skewed, hehe.

I was just on it yesterday, and my opinion has improved. Sure, it still is rough, and it isn't my favorite, but you don't have as rough as a ride as previous seasons. I like the new restraints, they are really soft where your ears get bashed.

"I think that fact that SFGAmSupaCrazy and RagingBullGuy's home park is SFGAm probably has something to do with their liking of Iron Wolf.
Does anybody ever bash their home park's coasters unless it's SFKK or SFEG?
--------------------------------------
Great America is also my home park and I would bash it if they had something bad to bash, but at Great America there really is nothing to bash. Ill admit though Iron Wolf isn't my favorite coaster the reason for this is because its so short. The best place to ride on this ride is front row, the ride is great that way.

Don't Fight it, Ride it, RAGING BULL!

I like Iron Wolf it didn't bump me around ,but at the end is a wicked stop no worse than the Mantis wicked stop too.

Iron Wolf is my favorite rollercoaster at SFGAm.
Iron Wolf is a fine coaster, and should be recognized as starting point that B&M has improved on. Chang is better than Mantis, Mantis is better than Iron Wolf so be it.
Lay off SFKK what do you expect from a park next to an airport!!!!!
I did ride Iron Wolf when I went to Great America, but I would take The Mantis at Cedar Point over Iron Wolf.

"Welcome back Raptor riders. How was your flight?"
A friend of mine says that riding Wolf is like putting yourself in a blender and hitting "Puree". *Shrug*
