I'm quite mixed on this ride. This is definitely the most forceful wild mouse I've ridden. It flies though the layout, providing good laterals, and somehow the dips towards the end give flojector airtime. However, this ride has a major flaw and that's the breaking system. It really does smash you forward and the final break run punched me in the guts so hard I thought I was gonna throw up. Overall, not a good family ride but it does have a lot of fun moments but also has some horrendous moments

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF CAROWINDS ADD SOME TYPE OF SHADE TO THIS RIDE!!!! This is notorious for longer line times because the entrance/exit is for one cart at a time, sometimes only seating 2-3 people. The long line in the blistering sun is BRUTAL! One of the very few you thought through, Carowinds. Do better!!

I don't think there is a longer wait in the park than the Ricochet. I have waited for 1.5 hours to get on this ride. However, I always find myself going back the next time I come here. It is a fantastic ride and I always want to ride every time I come to the park.

Looks like a baby ride but its not. When you turn around onto another track you speed up feeling like the car is gonna fly off the tracks. Pretty thrilling if you ask me. Only thing is if you wanna be as a family in one car, you better be a family of 4 cause each car only takes 4 passenger's. Other then that, love the ride.

It was amazing and fun... sadly I have no photos of the ride because my phone was put away. But, it's full of sharp turns, fast accelerations and more! If u have ever been to the state fair then it is exactly like the crazy mouse in the fair. Though, the seats r smaller than the ones at the fair but, still fun!

I’m a coaster enthusiast, so my perspective of this might differ. My opinion about this ride is to get on it for the credit and never step foot on it again. You can find this model coaster(a wild mouse) at almost every theme/amusement park out there.

Its a very common coaster found at many parks, and isn't scary at all but the fear that it might break and you might fall. Its a good family coaster, but it doesn't go fast, it has no loops or anything of the sort at all. Just a thousand turns.

One of the better smaller rides with shorter lines. Don't let it's small size fool you the twists and turns are not too be taken lightly. Take it from me you will enjoy just give it a try totally worth the short wait

idk how this was scary to me maybe bc the way they was hittin dem corners on us tho i went here on my birthday on april 6 btw w my school they had a field trip here it was mad fun tho …

Lol I elbowed my someone in the face on the last hairpin. This was my first Wild Mouse, and I really liked it, but slow dispatches for how many trains were running.

I love how this ride looks fun, you wouldn't think this ride would be for the people who like high leveled thriller rides but this ride accually is very thirlling!

This is definitely the most intense wild mouse I’ve ever ridden. The restraints don’t stop you from sliding in your seat. Pretty fun, but the brakes are violent.

I love the thrill of it. Always feel as if you are going to be slapped off the side of the ride. It was great for my nine year old as well.

All I can say is oh my neck. I loved this ride it was more than what I expected. Had my son hollering for his daddy n he is 18 lmbo!!!

Don’t ever leave Your lap Bar Tight and They Do on This Ride My Hips Slam into lap bar Every Time I don’t even wait in line

My 4 year old granddaughter had the time of her life in rides like this. To see her face so excited made my day worth while

I hate this coaster! Still, well built and maintained. Popular for sure, almost always a line. Just not for me.

This ride is for beginners. For those who want to build their courage up to get ready for the real coasters.

Its a cool little ride, but the line moves so slow you can spends an hour in line for a 2 minute ride.

Pretty fun very entertaining, I’m just unsure why the line for that specific coaster is always long.

Had a great time at carowinds, rides for all ages and has a really good area for kids ages 4 to 11.

My children like this ride. The line was okay. Would recommend to anyone with smaller children...

Lots of quick turns, don't recommend if you have neck or back problems. Otherwise it's fun.

Very fun, I didn’t realise this was a generic type of coaster but whatever ‍♂️ …

Didnt expect this ride to be scary lol but it was a lil scary taking those turns lol

This one doesn't look scary, but the sharp turns in a small car is very scary.

To me the ride isn't all that scary, but it's still fun. Especially the turns.

Great ride with wild turns, but usually a slow line. Photos are on this ride.

The Ricochet roller coaster, the best roller coaster if you want whiplash

Best little coaster in the park. We always have fun on this little ride.

Kinda fun. I honestly prefer the version at Busch Gardens Tampa though.

Kids love this ride, I believe it's the scariest one here....

Looks like a kidz ride but has surprising twists and turns.

Has the world's funnest rides and it was the best time ever

Slow but whips you around. Kind of fun, not great though.

It's a kitty ride nothing majorly fun about this ride.

My children really enjoy it, a little painful for me.

Fun family coaster. A surprisingly fun classic.

Lots of fun, but the wait times can get absurd.

Great Roller Coaster! Hairpin turns Scared Me.

It was more fun than I thought it would be

5 stars bc my gf fell out on the 3rd turn

Riding was a painful experience for me

Divertida pero no apta para temerosos.

Terrifying yet exhilarating

Las curvas son muy fuertes
