• Back - Riders on the Gwazi roller coaster (both sides) have asked, "are all wooden roller coasters this rough?" Back related injuries associated with this were not uncommon. We could not pin point a particular part of the ride that was worse than any other, but we have observed back injury from riders sitting in the front, middle, and back.
• Dehydration - Guest failing to hydrate themselves was not an uncommon issue. Age varied. We highly suggest drinking plenty of water before, during, and after visiting this park, or you're asking for trouble.
• Misc. Injuries - Riders on the Montu roller coaster have made mention of losing feeling in their legs after riding this roller coaster. Rider age varied and issues stemmed from riders sitting within all areas of the roller coaster train. This has been a re-occurring theme with riding this type of roller coaster.
