How was the Griffon in Busch Gardens Williamsburg?

Question

The last time I went there, the Griffon opened the next month. I wasn't very happy because I really wanted to go on it. I've watched the videos they have on the park site. Can you ppl, who've actually been on it, tell me about it?? :)

Answer 4

Griffon is a sweeeeet coaster!!  It's one of my all time favorites.

It's fast, smooth, and the first drop that keeps you hanging in amazing.  

As you probably already know, the trains hold 10 people across.  It's weird being on the end of the trains, going up the lift with nothing under your feet.  The slow turn around the track to the break is slow enough to get your adrenaline rushing right there, but then the trains are stopped and you hang over the edge of the track for about 3 seconds before the train falls into the first Immelman loop, under the foot bridge, into the MCBR (mid course break run), into another Immelman, and into the water splash.  It's a fast ride, but you'll want to keep riding it over and over.

The first row is obviously the best, since you get the best view at the holding break.  The second row is the worst in my opinion, it's just "blah", and the back row is ok as far as the view goes, but it's like any other back row, you still get whipped over the hills.  

Here's a link to a video on youtube.  Excuse the cheesy commentary on the video, but rather, enjoy the view from the hold.
