Does this have large drops and other characteristics of a theme park roller coaster? Asking for someone who doesn't typically like roller coasters.

No large drops has twists and turns but you can control how fast you go. It's ok for someone doesn't like roller coasters

Hello Shane! Our coaster does not have any large drops or loops. You can control your own speed. However, if you would like to take a slow ride, please let the ride attendants know for your safety. Thank you!

Not large drops, you have hand brakes and can go as slow or fast as you want. My 5 year old loves it and a friend who doesnt do height did it twice.

Yes..not as extreme...and you can slow down if you want it has a hand brake. But really fun....
