I rode it again this spring and found it OK. Four trim brakes took a lot from the ride. Both of the drops (first and second hills) have trim brakes that were substantial. I didn't get any "airtime" at all in the back seat. I guess the best "airtime" at Kings Island is reserved for Diamondback (and Delirium). I rode "305" last year with the trim brakes and I didn't find the brake took much from the ride, although I didn't experience it without the brake on the drop. I also rode Voyage for the first time this spring (a week before riding The Beast). Voyage was an order of magnitude better than The Beast. It's the best wooden coaster I've been on (I have not been on El Toro). The Beast was fun, but I wouldn't give it a 10. I never rode Son of Beast, but from all of the reviews I guess I didn't miss much (other than pain), except for the few lucky people who had nice rides on it.

I mean, it's starting to get old, and I think in this decade it's going to 'reach it's expiration date' like the BBW. No, I don’t think they’re taking down beast for a couple of more years.
