Sit in the last car for one of the most insane coaster rides you will ever experience. Best first drop. Best chain lift. Amazing airtime. Perfect name. Sitting in the back verses the front gives you two completely different ride experiences. I MUCH prefer the back, but I still loved the front. Oh, and one more thing I’d like to rave about is that small drop right near Rolling Thunder…. HOLY **** I have never experienced airtime like that before. The only flaw is that it’s over too quick.

El Toro is the most fabulous creation I have ever ridden. Funny how things change; less than a year ago I posted on this site because I was afraid to ride it and now can’t get enough of it! I love this ride! Rode it 6 times on July 4, 2011 and would have ridden it more had there been time. The first drop is totally awesome and the rest of the ride is spectacular. I find the track layout ingenious and appreciate the fact that because it’s so smooth, it affords a high thrill ride without subjecting the rider to physical abuse. (The one exception is one drop coming off a curve, where the lap bar always socks me in the hip although that’s a testament to the airtime.) I went to Indiana six weeks ago to ride The Voyage, just to see what all the fuss was about, why that coaster got a Golden Ticket award for #1 woodie. Well, it’s a great ride, but in my opinion El Toro is a better ride – and I must say that after 7 rides on The Voyage I was beginning to feel banged up, something that doesn’t happen on El Toro. In my opinion El Toro is #1 beyond a reasonable doubt. Ole!

Is El Toro the tallest and fastest OPERATING wooden coaster in America? Son of Beast is not operating. El Toro has to be.

MAGNIFICENT! Hands down, whenever I ride a new coaster this is the one I invariably compare it to. And nothing has come close yet. I admit that I prefer wooden rides to the overly smooth steel track ones, but this one is perfect in every way no matter how you look at it.

I love this ride! Great lift, drop, airtime and smoothness. The only thing bad about it is the ride ops staple you in way too far. And like cc said, you still get airtime, which sometimes hurts my legs getting ejected into the lap bar. But it is awesome and the best wooden coaster ever.

Best woody in the world. One of the best air time coasters period. One of the world’s best, in my opinion. If you’re looking for an alternative steel or woody, I’d say Nitro at SFGA, Diamondback at King’s Island, Intimidator at Carowinds or Colossos at Heide Park.

The last time I rode El Toro, it seemed as though the airtime on that one hill just didn’t amaze me. Maybe I was expecting just a bit too much, but it just didn’t throw me that much.
