Question Fire or Ice?

This is a big debate at our house. Which side of Dueling Dragons is the best, fire or ice? We think Ice, but I may need to ride both again a few times to be sure

I am a fan of Ice... my 14 yr old nephew & I both agree to that.

I think Fire is more intense.

Ice. And definitely front row! Head there first thing in the morning as soon as the parks open - forget the Hulk and Spiderman and just go straight to the dragons! You can get front row over and over again on both sides just to compare - but I'm sure the consensus will be Ice.

I give Fire the edge because it gives you an extra flip at the end. Ice just rolls into the station.

That ride was so crowded the day I got to ride, I only rode Fire, and that was in the Express line. It still took me 25 minutes or more.

I'll have to try Ice next time so I can compare.

It's hard to remember, but I think it was ICE that I liked better. DS too.
