Reporter Royden Ogletree is giving you his ride ratings free of charge

Three rides, everyone knows the rules! Reporter Royden Ogletree, is attempting to rate all the rides at the YMBL South Texas State Fair.

Reporter Royden Ogletree is riding three rides a day until he hopefully has a rating and review for each ride, or eventually passes out on one and has to stop this segment. The latter is more likely.

Ratings:

Wind Surf: 6/10: Fun in spurts, but nothing to write home about.

Alpine Bobs: 7/10: Starts out slow, finishes strong. Best music of any ride.

Hurricane: 9/10. Will spin you into another dimension.

Previous ratings:

Spin Out: 5/10. Fun, but I had a sinking feeling that I was about to come out of my seat multiple times.

Sky Flyer: 8/10. After I got over my fear of heights, actually pretty fun. Great Views.

Kids ride: Little Dipper: 6/10, mostly because I'm too tall for this one, and you shouldn't ride it if you don't have kids. You'll get weird looks. 10/10 if you're actually a child though probably.

Super Shot: 6/10: The anticipation is probably the best thing about this ride. Not great if you have vertigo.

Alien Abduction: 8/10. Long ride time. Seats a lot of people at once. Unexpected drops.

Tea Cups: 4/10 for anyone over 5'6. 9/10 for anyone under. It will actually spin you into oblivion if your try hard enough.

Zero Gravity: 7/10; Thrilling, long ride time.

The Ferris Wheel: 5/10; Long ride time, great views, not so thrilling.

Carousel: 9/10 if under the age of 5. 3/10 if an oversized 23-year-old reporter.
